Shirins Book Blog and Reviews: Release Blitz: Hard to Love by Stacy Williams

Tuesday, 2 June 2026

Hard to Love by Stacy Williams is now live!

What if no one really sees you?

What if you don't want them to?

Ryder Jones typically spends her days and nights busting down doors to rescue innocent

victims from a dangerous world most can't fathom. But when an injury puts her out of

commission, her boss gives her a new and anxiety-provoking assignment: 24-hour protection

detail for a charming athlete with a target on his back.

Cole Matthews's sole focus is winning football games. That is, until a stalker threatens his life.

But it's his sullen, highly trained blonde bodyguard--and new roommate--who's turning his

regimented life upside down. As Cole and Ryder dig into who has a vendetta against him, their

forced proximity leads to an undeniable attraction neither has experienced before.

A relationship would never work--Ryder operates in the dark, and Cole commands the

spotlight. When their opposite worlds collide and the stalker closes in, Ryder must admit that

Cole is more than an assignment. She'll do anything to protect him, even if it's from herself.

But what if the one thing that needs rescuing. . . is her heart?
