Big, Burly Bodyguard by Kat Baxter

EVELYN
I’m a princess with a future already planned for me—polished, perfect, and suffocating. Then my new bodyguard walks in. Mitchell Sinclaire doesn’t bow or fawn. He looks at me like I’m human, not royal—and suddenly everything feels dangerous. Because the more time I spend with him, the harder it is to remember my duty… and the easier it is to imagine a life that was never meant to be mine.

MITCHELL
I’m paid to protect her. Not want her. Evelyn Barlow is off-limits in every way that matters—royal, untouchable, and far too tempting. She’s smart, sharp, and impossible to ignore. Every smile is a risk. Every second together is a mistake. I’m supposed to keep her safe. Not fall for her. But some rules are worth breaking… and some hearts are worth the cost.
