One fateful morning changes everything. Lisbeth Anderson, the lone eyewitness of a shocking murder, believes the FBI witness protection program may be the only way for her to survive.

Ethan McCoy, an ex-Marine-turned-firefighter, has never really cared for any woman. He lives his life to the fullest, enjoying the bad boy stigma and cultivating a particular taste for dominant sex. Girls come and go, allowed to stay only long enough to satisfy Ethan’s wild appetite.

When he pries open a trap door to the hidden panic room under the house, he finds a gorgeous, though disheveled brunette. Lisbeth instantly turns Ethan’s world upside down, and he’s overcome by the burning desire to protect her, no matter the consequences.

Review
I'm going to start off by saying, I love a man in uniform. Be it fireman, policeman, paramedic, army, navy, I just can't get enough of them, yummy.
Ethan is a hot badass firefighter ex-marine so he's right up my alley! Lisbeth/Gloria is a young woman in need of saving, who it seems has yet to realize her own strength. They are attracted to each other from the very first meeting but circumstances have a way of keeping them from acting on the attraction. This book sucked me in and kept me reading until the wee hours of the morning. I enjoyed the alternating points of view, it let us get into the minds of each character and definitely made the book more enjoyable for me. I loved the fast paced setting and action, it never did get boring. I did struggle reading, just slightly though, in the beginning of the book because to me it didn't seem to flow real well almost to the point of being choppy at the beginning and ending of some paragraphs. I'd say after the first quarter of the book is when it seemed like the author really hit her stride.
All told I enjoyed the book, story line and characters; it was a good solid 4 stars.
