The Broken One (Falcon Falls Security)

Ella Hawkins grew up on a ranch with four older brothers and has always been drawn to one man she cannot have. After a secret romantic weekend with him three years ago in New York leaves her heartbroken, she accepts an opportunity to move to Paris to pursue fashion design. Instead, she finds herself traveling there with Jesse McAdams, the same man who claimed he was too dangerous for her—now as his fake wife, tasked with helping catch a killer. Jesse McAdams, a former Army Ranger, has spent half his life away from his small hometown. Despite his distance, one woman has always owned his heart: Ella. He has kept his true feelings hidden, believing he is not the man she deserves. After their weekend together, resisting her becomes increasingly difficult, especially when they argue and desire follows. Joining Falcon Falls Security was meant to bring Jesse the redemption he needs. Instead, the lies he has constructed begin to unravel, exposing his secrets and putting those close to him in danger. When Ella learns the truth about his past, she finds herself falling for him again—but now the stakes are higher, she is in danger, and the man responsible is her husband. Jesse must protect her while trying to repair the damage he has caused.
