Enemies to Lovers Forced Proximity Romance

By: Amelia Belle

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

I hired him to save my life, but he’s the one danger I didn’t see coming. He’s my new bodyguard, the stranger I spent one unforgettable night with, and the only man standing between me and a forced marriage.

Anna

I thought I was escaping my father’s control when I slipped away for one night of freedom.

I never expected that night to end in a kidnapping attempt, or that my rescuer would be the most incredible man I’d ever met.

We shared one night of passion—no names, no strings—before I was dragged back to my gilded cage.

Now, my father has hired a 24/7 security detail to ensure I make it to the altar for a business-merger marriage I want no part of.

The problem? The head of my security team is him.

Jason is colder now, all business and hard angles.

He acts like he doesn't know me, like he hasn't tasted my skin.

But every time he manhandles me into a safe house or stands guard outside my door,

I feel the heat radiating off him.

He’s paid to protect me from the world… but who is going to protect me from him?

Jason

I have a simple code: the client is off-limits.

But Anna isn't just a client.

She’s the woman who haunts my dreams, the one who unraveled me completely before I even knew who she was.

Now, I’m the only thing keeping her alive.

She pushes my buttons. She challenges my authority.

And she tests my restraint every single second we’re alone.

I should walk away. I should ask for a reassignment.

But seeing the fear in her eyes and the defiance in her chin, I know I can't leave her.

Her father’s enemies are circling, and the threat is closer than anyone realizes.

I need to keep my head in the game to stop the threat coming for her.

But one look from her, and I’m ready to break every protocol I swore to uphold.

THE HEAT We’re trapped in a dangerous game of cat and mouse, with a wedding countdown ticking away and an unseen enemy closing in.

The professional distance is crumbling, and the secrets we’re keeping are becoming as volatile as the threat outside.

I have to decide: do I do my duty and deliver her to another man, or do I risk my career and my life to claim the woman who was mine first?

I found it hard to follow at times and didn't know what character was saying what. The AI generated voice really didn't add anything to the story. I enjoyed the story just wish the AI voice was more genuine.
