Life in the Big Easy is anything but
Hotel heiress Ela LeBlanc is ready to take control of her life. Waking up handcuffed to a former Marine and then hearing the news of her step-dad's plans to sell her Mom’s hotel is just the wake-up call she needs.
With only thirty days to prove he has no claim on the property, Ela has to enlist the help of her sexy as sin bodyguard. When things take a dangerous turn, and Matt becomes the only person she can trust, she can't help but wonder... can she trust him with her heart?
