Book One - House of Bellante
Four women guard my life. They've sworn to protect me at all costs.
I exposed the Bellante crime family, and they sent a car bomb as their reply.
The security team arrived before the smoke cleared—women who moved like soldiers and made my safety their only priority. They swept me to a safehouse mansion in the middle of nowhere, secured behind iron gates and surveillance cameras.
Kara: the unshakable leader who commands with a touch.
Ellie: the medic whose gentle hands make me forget what boundaries are.
Cam: the silent bruiser who speaks in looks that burn.
Alex: the strategist who watches me like she's solving an equation.
Protection felt like seduction. Safety felt like surrender.
But surveillance cameras don't just keep threats out—they watch everything inside too.
And the four women guarding my life are keeping secrets of their own.
Under Their Guard is a sapphic why-choose dark bodyguard romance with morally grey protectors, forced proximity, high heat (without cheating), hurt/comfort, found-family vibes, and a journalist who chooses them all. HFN ending with no cliffhanger—their story will continue in book two.
