Dark Protector (Dark Lords Book 1)

Falling in love can be dangerous. For Alice Preda, it can be deadly. When a shady corporation that conducts experiments on humans targets Alice Preda, dark and mysterious Damian Novac is secretly assigned with her protection. Alice discovers his true identity and she's soon love-struck, but Damian keeps a cool reserve, protecting Alice not only from her hunters but also from himself. A villain who switched sides long ago, Damian is the biggest gun the science mafia ever created. He's been halfway stable serving the good for years, but when his makers return to the picture and provoke him, he threatens to relapse. The ice breaks, his demons awaken, and the Executioner is unleashed once more. Only the mysterious gift buried in Alice's psyche can tame him, but for that she'll have to place herself in the line of fire.
