Some Rules Were Made to Be Broken Photographer Nick Coltrane broke Daisy Parker's heart nine years ago. And now he wants to hire her as his bodyguard. She wants to tell him where he can go, but her fledgling company desperately needs the cash flow. She once broke her own rules, only to watch his sexy self run for the door. Providing round-the-clock protection for him is out of the question . . . right? Nick needs Daisy around to keep the hired thugs who are out for his blood from actually getting it. If he can make amends for the way he screwed up nine years ago in the process, then so much the better. Except time has done nothing to dull the memory of how Daisy once rocked his world off its axis, and her cocky attitude and mouthwatering curves still have the power to turn his brain to mush. Now two people who once were friends and used to be lovers will discover whether love and trust can come from a passion that breaks every rule.… (meer)

From the start I really disliked the hero and didn't warm to the heroine either. I find it hard to understand she was hurt enormously by him and three seconds (sort of) after seeing him again, she makes exactly the same mistake. I also started skipping a lot of the sex scenes after a while: there were too many of them and did nothing for the development of the relationship. This author has written better books.

This is the first book by Anderson I've read and I'm looking forward to more. While I didn't quite believe the setup and the society background of the characters, I thought Anderson managed to overcome it by writing an engaging story that was compelling. The characters, when interacting with one another seemed to overcome their cardboard descriptions. I also thought the romantic scenes were well done and believable. ( )

Very entertaining. Part of a series but stands alone well as it's own book. ( )

I really liked Nick. At first he seems self-absorbed and shallow, but it isn't long before we realize there's more depth to him than that. As the story wore on, I felt he really grew. I especially like that he admitted his feelings first.

I also really liked Daisy. Not many authors could write a likable, believable bodyguard heroine, but Andersen really pulled it off. Though Daisy was tough, she wasn't so tough she became stupid with it. She knew her own strengths and weaknesses, and she wasn't afraid to make them work.

The suspense plot was actually pretty well done. The villain was a bit over the top - I can't believe he'd hire goons to go after a photographer but no one would catch on to his true nature - but he worked within the context of the story. A few things did bother me, like the way the police acted when Nick tried to report things, but I was able to move past it.

I guess this is one book that improves upon re-reading. ( )

4.5*'s. Would have given 5, but the ending kind of got a touch cheesy for me. Still, I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Daisy is probably my most favorite heroin ever. Strong, capable, stubborn, and a smart-ass. Nick is great also. He tended to bounce back and forth between beta and alpha hero. Although I'm sure he'd take offense at being called a beta. I thought it was a wonderful, fast-paced read, by one of my favorite authors that I would happily recommend. ( )

This is dedicated, with love
To Jen,
for saving my bacon just when
I thought it was fried but good
To Mom, Mimi, Toni, Aunt Thelma, Elaine,
Vernetta, Winnie, and Margaret,
for years of support and the
world's fastest sell-out booksigning
And to the Methow Valley gang,
for good food, great skiing,
and a whole lotta laughs
Life doesn't get much better than this
