Protecting Delaina - E-book - ePub

Merrick Gentry has two jobs, complete the contract and collect the money. He also has two rules. Never regret pulling the trigger, and never kill an innocent. But the moment he scopes out Delaina Wells, his spotless career as a hitman implodes and chaos ensues. As more killers come out of the woodwork, Merrick eliminates anyone that threatens her life. Keeping her safe and alive is his goal. Not fall hard for the dark-haired beauty with a sassy mouth. When there's a million dollars on the line for her life, Delaina Wells isn't sure who to turn to.
Yet, she has no choice but to trust the gorgeous hitman she attracted to, or die in the hands of other killers, who wants to cash in the prize. From killer to protector, Merrick's abilities are put through the ringer, and so is his heart when his desire for Delaina could get them both killed. He needs his guard up and find who took out the hit, or they both will be six feet under.
