I read a romantic suspense where I think the hero was part of a security firm and the heroine was a food blogger or was making a recipe book. The scene I remember clearly is that they were getting all hot and heavy in her apartment and the hero answered his phone. The heroine got all huffy and tried to get up but the hero refused to let her up telling her to wait until he was done his call. She ended up having a panic attack, running away, and locking herself in her bathroom. I think that she had a history of being abused. Does anyone know this book?
I'm 99% sure its Rude, he was her nemesis growing up, his family were her foster parents and he resented her and they had an acrimonious relationship. Then he likes her, after being through things as a soldier he recognizes the look she had in her eyes and realizes he'd been a huge jerk to a girl who had been through bad things. That scene with the phone and panic attack is in it, she's a food blogger, he's a former military now security consultant. She tells him to let her up while he's on the phone, he clamps his arm around her and lectures her about not getting her way and his job is important blah blahblah and meanwhile she's having a panic attack, She gets away and hides in the bathroom and curls up behind the commode.
