Blurb
At first, I thought it was just paranoia.
It wouldn’t be the first time, after all. Ever since that night two years ago, I’ve never felt completely safe. So I convinced myself the strange sense of being watched was all in my head. My PTSD flaring up just as it had in the past.
Then I was nearly run off the road on my way home from work, and as much as I wished it was just a coincidence, I knew it wasn’t.
I could go to the police, but I wanted someone I trusted to help me.
So I called Rafe. My brother’s former teammate and best friend. And—though I’d never let on for a second—the man who’d held my heart ever since I met him.
As soon as Eden told me she was in trouble, I dropped everything to help her.
“Maybe it’s nothing,” she told me. “But things have been happening.”
I didn’t need to hear more. If Eden needed me, I would be there. And if someone was bothering her, I’d teach them that they messed with the wrong woman. Because as a bounty hunter and former Green Beret, I’m the last person they want to piss off.
When I arrive in Portland to find Eden terrified and in danger, every protective instinct comes roaring to the surface. And I’m furious that someone would dare try to hurt her.
I’m not the white knight I always thought Eden deserved. Far from it. But I’m a dangerous man when someone I care about is threatened. And Eden? I’ll do anything to protect her.
Protected from Malice is a slow burn friends-to-lovers story with a morally grey hero who’ll do anything to protect the people he loves, a brave and intelligent heroine, a team of Army veterans, thrilling twists, and plenty of sweet and steamy moments. No cliffhangers and a happily-ever-after guaranteed!

MY REVIEW
Eden's been in love with her brother Indy's former Army Special Forces teammate and friend, Rafe, forever now. But he only sees her as his friend's sister at the very least, as a friend at most. But he is the only person she thinks to call when she's run off the road after a series of other creepy incidents. Rafe may not be in love with her like she is with him, but he'll at least know what to do to find out who's harassing her.
Rafe could never tell anyone of his feelings for Eden - not only was she his friend's and former teammate's sister, but he's never felt as if he's good enough for someone as sweet, smart and good as Eden. But when she calls and needs him, there's no question that he's going to be there for her. He'll find out who's harassing her, make them stop, and...perhaps find out his feelings for Eden have only gotten stronger.
Rafe and Eden are so perfect for each other. Their close proximity was the perfect way for them to realize and act on their feelings, all the adrenaline amped up the intensity of their connection, and they finally got to open up to each other in a way they never had before. Opening up has a healing effect for both, and I loved that about them. In fact, I loved everything about them and their story, including all the Blade and Arrow teammates and especially Indy. I can't wait for his story *hint hint.* This Shadow team is shaping up to be as awesome as their fellow Blade and Arrow Security counterparts - now I'm really excited to read as the next teammate falls in love in Protected from Villainy.
