The Manny
Susan Ward - 2016
Each book is a standalone and can be read in any order. I never understood when people said someday you would love someone enough to want it all. All? I didn’t even know what they meant by “all.” I’d spent most of my life in the military in the Special Forces and, since taking that career-ending bullet in Kandahar, as personal security for the most famous rock star on the planet. My life worked for me. I was living life full-throttle in every man’s dream—in the center of a sexual orgy that spanned the globe, without limits or judgment. Why would any man want to change that? But the minute I saw him, it all changed. I knew he was the one for me. The one the term all was invented for. I never expected to fall so completely for a one-night stand. I thought this kind of love was something I was incapable of feeling, but there was no way to escape my desire for Leland since he was my employer. I didn’t want a job guarding a child. I didn’t want to fall in love with her father. I did both.
