When Steel started Steel Security, he thought he had it all: the perfect man, a budding career, and a bright future. Two of those things were true. The other ruined his life. In the early days of Steel Security, Steel worked as a guard himself until he gained enough clients to branch out. Unfortunately, before he reached that point, Steel learned the hard way about sleeping with clients. Now Steel is too busy to date, much less let another man destroy him. Yet, somehow, the same guy who wrecked him decades ago has managed to sneak back into his life. Steel doesn't have the same heart Krystof once broke.

That doesn't stop Krystof from trying. Just not in the way Steel expects. Steel has always been the one for Krystof. Life and loyalty pulled him in a different direction the first time around. Everything has changed now, and Krystof won't give up. He's determined to win back Steel. Krystof won't stop until Steel puts him out of his misery, one way or another. Hard as Steel is the fifth book in Charity Parkerson's Steel Security series.

These showcase some of the toughest bodyguards in the country as they fall hard for men they never see coming.
