About the book:

Soren Buchanan feels trapped by his relationship with the dangerous and sexy Jolina Miciano, a relationship his controlling father, crime boss James Buchanan, does not want Soren to end. Unwilling to be a pawn in his father's games, Soren decides to stop seeing Jolina. Bloodied and bruised for his defiance, Soren flees to the FBI for help. 

Mason Ward, security specialist and former US Army Ranger, lives a quiet life on a house boat docked off the island of Guam. Despite his lack of companionship, Mason believes he is living the life he's always wanted. Then a job comes Mason's way that will turn his life upside down: hide Soren Buchanan. 

Protecting Soren should be easy enough for the experienced Mason, but Soren is young, seductive, and not entirely forthcoming about the trouble following him. Soon Mason fights not only his growing attraction to the young man but thugs sent to bring Soren Buchanan home … dead or alive.
