Falling for Mr. Safety

When your job is all about avoiding risk, what happens when you meet the one person who makes you want to risk it all?

Juniper Carlisle is the only totally normal member of her show biz family. Thus, she is invisible. But she has a plan to change that, starting with the huge production she’s putting on for the opening of the new minor league baseball stadium. A couple rings of fire, a few unbelievable dog tricks, and she’ll finally get her family’s attention, proving that she, too, has that special something.

But when Juni’s best friend and show partner gets hurt and can’t do the show, everyone suggests a ridiculous replacement.

Carter Callihan is in Solano Creek short term. He was beckoned by his grandfather for reasons only known to the elderly man, but after Carter provides security for the big opening day at the new baseball stadium as a favor to his big brother, he’s headed back to Los Angeles, where he makes sure all the A-list celebrities are truly untouchable, thanks to his firm.

Carter is good with numbers, calculating risk, and staving off disaster. He’s been doing it his whole life. But Juniper Carlisle is like a walking hand grenade inside a tornado strapped onto a speeding bus, and he can’t figure out if he should throw himself on the grenade (hypothetically, of course) or run far, far away.

And now that he sees Juniper every single day as they practice for the big show, he’s pretty sure that the closer he gets to her, the better the odds that he’ll be the one who gets hurt.
