Madam, I'm just a bodyguard

Elite assassin Ethan accepts a ten-day mission to protect Scarlet Crawford, a brilliant pharmaceutical scientist and the wife of New York mafiaboss Dominic Vance. But Scarlet is no stranger: years ago, Ethan saved her from a brutal attack, only to leave her with a painful misunderstanding. Disguised as a security guard, Ethan stops an assassination attempt and becomes her personal bodyguard. As rival heir Luke Sterling targets Scarlet’s revolutionary drug, Project Vitalis, Ethan answers every threat with ruthless force. Scarlet, suspicious of his true motives, draws him into a dangerous game of seduction and interrogation. Amid mafia wars, corporate conspiracies, and a loveless marriage, their buried past resurfaces, forcing them to confront old wounds, forbidden desire, and the possibility of redemption.
