Taken By A Damaged Ex-SEAL

I fled a monster, slept with a stranger—and now I'm his nanny, secretly pregnant with his baby.

I’m running from my psychopath ex who confuses love with obsession. Miles later, a stranger in a hotel bar made me feel safe for the first time in years.

One reckless night. No last names. No regrets.

Stranded in a small town, desperation pushes me to apply for a live‑in nanny job.

When the door opens, it’s my one-night stand.

Austin Maddox.

Ex‑Navy SEAL. Guarded, brutally gorgeous.

He doesn’t recognize me with my disguise. Good—I’m trying to save my life.

I shouldn't fall for the protector who softens only for his daughter. I shouldn't crave the touch of the man who can't French braid but tries every morning. And I definitely shouldn't be pregnant with his baby.

I panic and tell him the baby is my ex’s—and I’m terrified of shattering his trust with my lies.

Then a chilling voice breathes against my ear: I found you.

The monster I escaped is back. And if he can’t have me, no one can.

But Austin won't just fight for me—he'll burn his whole life down to protect his daughter, our baby, and me. And I’m not sure I can stop him.
