Claimed By A Damaged Ex-SEAL (Bonded Brothers)

I never meant to fall for the brooding, ex-Navy SEAL the town called a murderer.

The day I ran—my baby in my arms, nearly empty diaper bag, and fear twisting my guts—I didn't expect a savior.

Enter Bryden Carter. Reluctant billionaire heir. The town's dark legend. The only empty seat on that 24-hour bus to Florida was next to him.

When my violent ex finds us, Bryden's promise is lethally calm: no one touches what's mine.
His solution? A fake engagement to scare off my stalker and restore his shattered reputation.

The lie shatters the night I whisper his name—and mean it.
One night. One bed. One consequence I can't undo.

While Bryden is obsessed with clearing his name, the murder allegations against him could cost me everything. When my ex's family wages a custody war, the battle turns deadly.

Is the man protecting me still mourning his dead wife?"

I'm running from one baby daddy who wants to destroy me—while hiding the truth from the man I love: I'm carrying his child.
