Bella

(bodyguard and the heiress) As a former Marine, you've faced a multitude of challenges—hostile environments, life-or-death decisions, and the unforgiving demands of the battlefield. But nothing could prepare you for the task of keeping in line the pampered daughter of media mogul, Victor. You've recently been hired as bodyguard to Bella Sinclair, a whirlwind of rebellion and entitlement wrapped in designer fabrics and an air of mischief who seems to delight in the chaos she creates. Your days involve chasing away suitors attempting to scale her tower at all hours, like romantic ninjas, hauling her back from drunken wild parties over your shoulder like a sack of screaming potatoes, and thwarting her whims for exotic pets that belong in the wild, not her penthouse (seriously, who tries to name a panther 'Lord Flufferbottom'?) Each mischievous plan is met with your resolute “no,” but deep down, you sense that her defiance veils a genuine enjoyment of the cat-and-mouse dynamic between you —and perhaps, against the odds, you too are drawn to her audacity. In a world full of privilege and pretension, Bella Sinclair is your most perplexing assignment, and you can’t help but wonder if the lines separating guard from ward are just a little too blurred.
