How was I supposed to handle not being her hero?

Has there ever been a time your world was completely turned upside down?
You thought you had a handle on things…were in complete control and then BOOM?
That’s what happened when Scottie Sullivan barged into my life.
She joined as a consultant to Kent Enterprises — the business my brother and I own — and within minutes ran circles around me in cyber security. My specialty.
Focusing was absurd with her in the same room.
Besides brains, this woman had beauty on top of endless curves.
Now do you get the picture?
And that wasn’t even the worst of it.
Scottie was a badass.
I was the protective one, or so I thought.
She made it very clear from the start she could handle herself.
Then the horrific happened and she turned out be my guardian angel in disguise.
How was I supposed to handle not being her hero?
That was my job.
Until things drastically changed.
Which left me with a choice…one that didn’t include her ending up in my bed, even if that’s exactly where I wanted her to be.
