(2024)(The seventh book in the Protective Gentlemen series)
A Novella by Ivy Noir
Sebastian
She doesn’t know how much danger she’s in.
I should send her away, protect her from all of this, but I can’t.
I need her close.
The way she looks at me—it’s like she sees straight through me, past the noble title and the family name.
She has no idea how much I want to take her, claim her as mine, show her exactly who’s in control.
Isabella’s driving me mad.
If only she knew how hard it is to keep my hands off her, how much I want to throw her on my bed and make her forget all about the history she’s here to study.
No one challenges me like she does.
And I’ve never wanted anyone more."
Isabella
What is it about him?
His voice, that commanding tone—it does things to me.
But no, I need to stay professional. He’s my client, not some fantasy prince.

He knows exactly what he’s doing.
Does he feel it too? That spark, that heat between us?
It’s maddening how much I want him to take control, to see what happens when we stop pretending this is just business."
I can’t stop picturing his hands on my skin, feeling every inch of me.
No, I need to stay focused. I’m a historian, damn it, not some love-struck teenager.
