Fearing his sexual demands are too much for Sapphire to handle, Jake does the only thing he can to protect her—he leaves her. Sapphire is in love with her bodyguard. One night of intense, passionate sex has him running for the door and she doesn’t know why. When Jake unexpectedly shows up in her life again, she must decide if she can live with the sexual demands he’ll make of her. But most of all, she must decide if she can once again risk her heart.
