The Wind Hunts the Rose

About this Book

After stopping an armed intruder at work, military veteran Shen Yueji is reassigned from a finance desk to a very different post: personal bodyguard to Lin Ting, the withdrawn wife of powerful CEO Sheng Zeyun. Protecting her turns into helping two stubborn people say what they really mean. When the misunderstandings are finally cleared away, Yueji takes her well-earned money and makes plans of her own: quit, get a tattoo, change careers, and pursue a doctorate. She is ready to rekindle the dream she put out with her own hands at eighteen. Then her former boss's close friend, Qi Nianxu, keeps finding reasons to appear. A pretend date at a banquet. A quiet two-year-old son who only seems to take to her. A business proposal delivered right to her laboratory door in Shuocheng. Calm, patient, and always one step ahead, he has been moving closer for longer than she realized. But can a woman determined to reclaim her own life let someone into it without surrendering her freedom?
