Penny’s ex refused to accept that it was over between them.

Unwilling to live in fear, she hired an alpha to protect her, but she hadn’t realized it would mean allowing him into her home.

Doubt began to take hold until she discovered her ex was still stalking her. She wasn’t going to let him dictate her life, so she pushed on as usual…Until she was attacked and dragged into a waiting van.

Ethan was supposed to protect Penny, but he’d failed. The chair he was tied to wouldn’t stop him, and neither could the laws placed on his dynamic. Her ex wasn’t going to survive long enough to regret his choices, but the drugs he’d given Penny were sending her into heat, and Ethan couldn’t leave her to suffer alone.

How much was he going to pay for breaking the laws governing alphas, and would their bond survive?

Narrator Nathanial Buttrey has a very versatile voice. He is great at creating unique voices for each character—he never loses track of who’s who and he’s always entertaining. As far as author Leann Ryans is concerned, I am a huge fan. I always know I’m going to love that dive into the pool of her Alphas—well, Omegas and Betas, too!

Penny has ‘ex’ problems. Big-time ‘ex’ problems. He’s a class-A jerk, woman beating, wishes-he-was-an-Alpha beta. Adrian, Penny’s ex, puts her through h-ee-double-hockey-sticks. Penny hires Ethan for protection. From their first meeting, the chemistry between Ethan and Penny is off the charts. We’re talking H. O. T. 🥵 The threats from her ex escalate, … and, well, you’ll just have to listen and/or read for yourself. I’ll just leave off here by saying, this is a really good book.

This is book 2 in Ryans' Teh Hired series and can easily be read / listened to as a standalone. An omega verse romance, which I don't typically seek out and yet here I am. I have listened to book 1 and wanted to continue the series and I'm so glad that I did and I honestly think I enjoyed this book more than the first. The narration was good - I liked when his pitch deepened and growled a bit when portraying our main male character, alpha Ethan who is head of security at the Haven. Our female lead, omega Penelope had an ex that won't leave her alone and while she's tried going thru necessary channels, finds herself hiring a bodyguard - enter Ethan. The chemistry is there between the two from the start and the ex escalates once Ethan is on the scene. Ryans delivers a captivating, smooth flowing storyline that has danger, along with sweet romance and steamy chemistry and a great HEA. Looking forward to more from Ryans and this series.

This book was given to me for free at my request thanks to StoryOrigin and I voluntarily provided this review.
