Aegisbound

An encrypted ledger. A vanished military program. A protector who never expected to fall in love with the woman he's sworn to protect.

Harper Keating has spent her life digging through forgotten records, but nothing prepares her for what she uncovers inside a sealed digital archive: proof of a secret military project tied to the disappearance of multiple veterans. The moment she begins asking questions, someone decides she should never find the answers.

Cole Maddox is a former special operations soldier who now runs a quiet protection firm, trying to outrun the ghosts of his last mission. Hired to keep Harper alive, he expects danger. He doesn't expect her courage. Or the way she slips past his armor and into his guarded heart.

As threats turn into attacks and the truth points toward a powerful private defense contractor, Harper and Cole are dragged into a deadly conspiracy where loyalty is a weapon and silence is bought in blood. Every step closer to exposure puts Harper in greater danger-and forces Cole to confront how much he's willing to sacrifice to save her.

Trust becomes their only shield. Love becomes their greatest risk.

In a world where secrets are more valuable than lives, Aegisbound delivers a pulse-pounding blend of military suspense, forbidden attraction, and a protector romance forged under fire.
