A Hero's Desire - Tessa Layne - Bog

**This book was formerly titled A Hero's Haven**

He had one job only...
Cash Aiken has devoted his life to protecting others, first as part of an elite Navy SEALS unit, then as a bodyguard for the top security agency in the nation. He never expected to fall for his latest asset, a woman more innocent-girl-next-door than Country Music Superdiva, or that a frozen moment of inattention would nearly cost her life - and his career. Broken and alone, he accepts a chance at a new life at Resolution Ranch, only to discover the woman who's never left his heart is masquerading as a stablehand.

Can he protect her when it matters most?
Kaycee Starr is done with the music biz. Done with crazed fans, overbearing managers, and thanks to a heartbreaking medical diagnosis, done with singing for good. Desperate for a chance to start over, she disappears to a place the paparazzi would never think to look - Prairie, Kansas. But her job at Resolution Ranch is more than she anticipated, starting with the gentle giant Cash Aiken who immediately takes her under his wing. By day, he's her rock and by night... he brings every love song she's written to life.

But when Kaycee's cover is blown by someone at the ranch and Cash puts everything on the line for the sweet, strong woman he loves, will it be enough to protect her? And more importantly, their hearts?
