I fell for Madeline Mason the moment I laid eyes on her fifteen years ago.

But she was the definition of off-limits.

The mother of one of my subordinates in the Rangers. Strike one.

Married. Strike two. Lived in another state. Strike three.

None of that stopped us from desiring each other.

Tragically, it was never the right time for us.

Her life was in near-constant turmoil, and I was building my legacy at Redleg Security.

So I waited for her.

For years, I wished for a someday that I feared would never come.

After she divorced her abusive husband, I hoped our time had arrived.

Then tragedy struck.

I should have moved on.

But a woman like her comes along once in a lifetime.

One night, passion took over. And she was finally mine.

Or so I thought.

Despite our intense feelings, she insists we keep our love a secret.

She’s my everything.

But what am I to her?

Before I can break through her walls, my life turns upside down.

A fight with a dangerous enemy puts her in the crossfire. And a surprise from my past gives her an excuse to run away from her feelings.

As everything unravels, I’m left wondering if I've spent my life loving a woman who will never choose me.

Author's Note: Bossy Hero is not a standalone novel. This is the culmination of the entire Redleg Security saga and is meant to be listened to as part of the series. While you "might" be able to follow along if you listen to this story on its own, it's likely to be somewhat confusing, especially in regards to the suspense plot that's been brewing for several books and the influence of multiple side characters and how they impact the main couple in this story. However, if you're feeling brave, go for it. I'm not the boss of you.
