All I wanted was a breaktwo weeks off from being Pixie Hart, country music sensation, and fourteen days of peace, privacy, and solitude as plain old Kelly Jo Sullivan.

But thanks to some overzealous paparazzi, my family refuses to let me go anywhere alone, and Im stuck sharing this tiny cabin with a tall, dark, and bearded bodyguard.

And guess what? Theres only one bed.

Well, he can couch it.

Xander Buckley might be hotter than a stolen blow torch, and I get that hes a former Navy SEAL and all, but the man gives new meaning to the words overbearing, overprotective, bossy alpha male. I cant even post a photo on social media without him warning me its not safe, or take a morning jog without him following behind.

But hes made it clear that what he says goes, and if I dont like it, I can kiss my vacation goodbye.

Instead, I end up kissing him.

I dont even know how it happenedone minute we were at each others throats, the next we were at each others mercy. Whats even more shocking is how good we are together. He understands my need for freedom, and I understand his need for control.

But emotional trust doesnt come easily to me. And were on two completely different paths.

Without question, Id put my life in his hands.

Just dont ask me to give him my heart.
