The Story
THE BODYGAURD synopsis from the publisher:
THE BODYGAURD by Katherine Center
She’s got his back.
Hannah Brooks looks more like a kindgerten teacher than somebody who could kill you with a wine bottle opener. Or a ballpoint pen. Or a dinner napkin. But the truth is, she’s an Executive Protection Agent (aka “bodyguard”), and she just got hired to protect superstar actor Jack Stapleton from his middle-aged, corgi-breeding stalker.
He’s got her heart.
Jack Stapleton’s a household name—captured by paparazzi on beaches the world over, famous for, among other things, rising out of the waves in all manner of clingy board shorts and glistening like a Roman deity. But a few years back, in the wake of a family tragedy, he dropped from the public eye and went off the grid.
They’ve got a secret.
When Jack’s mom gets sick, he comes home to the family’s Texas ranch to help out. Only one catch: He doesn’t want his family to know about his stalker. Or the bodyguard thing. And so Hannah—against her will and her better judgment—finds herself pretending to be Jack’s girlfriend as a cover. Even though her ex, like a jerk, says no one will believe it.
What could possibly go wrong???
Hannah hardly believes it, herself. But the more time she spends with Jack, the more real it all starts to seem. And there lies the heartbreak. Because it’s easy for Hannah to protect Jack. But protecting her own, long-neglected heart? That’s the hardest thing she’s ever done.
My Review: The Bodyguard
Welcome to your next favorite read!
THE BODYGAURD is this summer’s unstoppable force of wit, humor, and delicious romance.
An utter delight, THE BODYGAURD is filled with laugh out loud moments, heartbreaking ones too, and a dash of suspense towards the very end (I did NOT see that coming). This book is like a gift to romance readers. Center will keep you entertained with the savory banter, sweet flirtation, and the swift momentum of watching two people fall in love.
It’s a book that gets you pretty close to happiness.
I loved every page.
Now go read this book!
Happy Reading ~ Cece
