Briars_Reviews | Aug 4, 2023 |   Why didn't I read this book sooner? Romance, a Canadian author, and a sexy man on the cover are three awesome traits of this book that make it a must have in my collection. This book has it all - drama, suspense, thrills, romance and some incredibly sexy scenes. Zack is mega hot, Alexa is a Hollywood star looking for something different and they are a match made in heaven! It helps that they've been pining after each other in secret for the past year. This Bodyguard series seems to be centered on, you guessed it, bodyguards protecting a woman and then falling in love with them. It's kind of the damsel in distress narrative, but with a little more 'umph'. The duo seem to fall in love way too quickly, but it's a romance novel so it's easy to suspend reality on that front. But, the falling in love fast story line makes this book feel passionate and sexy. While it won't work for all readers, it sure worked for me! I liked Tara's writing style - it was fast enough to keep me hooked, it was descriptive enough to make me feel like I'd been whisked away from reality, and it was easy to read. I found myself binging the whole book because I felt for Zack and Alexa and needed to know how it ended. She also wrote Alexa, a character with obvious flaws, really well. I honestly wanted her to have the happy ending she deserves. Buuuuut... yep, a but, I would have loved to have seen her past fleshed out a bit more. She's a really interesting character who I want to follow more of. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be getting anymore epic side stories about Alexa and Zack (at least... not yet!). The plot itself is exciting and full of soap opera like turns. Alexa's Dad is a bad guy, and there's many more reveals to come. Alexa and Zack decide to 'fake' a relationship to not tip off any of the bad guys, but we all know how well that goes in romance novels. On a side note: This book was easily read as a stand alone. I had no idea what happened in the past books, even though the novel hinted at them along the way, but that didn't affect the quality of this book. As a reader, I was able to nod along and follow the plot without needing to search up the prequels. I absolutely want to read the two previous books now because this book was just so darn good! Overall, I really enjoyed this book! I can easily recommend this to romance lovers who like a little action mixed in with their story. Four out of five stars! I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads. (  ) Briars_Reviews | Aug 4, 2023 | geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
