Book Details
His tragic past… Her guilty secret… Their only chance for redemption.
Devlin Security operative Boyd Kirby guards only art and artifacts.
Memories of leading his Army Ranger team into a deathtrap haunt him, so
he swears never to protect people. But when the woman who once stole his
heart asks for help, he can’t refuse. The search for Gemma’s missing
friend leads to a complex case of art forgery and murder attempts on
her. Sweating bullets, Boyd vows not to be distracted by her warmth and
his desire. He damn well will protect her… with his life.
Gemma Bellini believes managing her famous grandfather’s art legacy can
redeem her for a past scandal that makes her wary of men’s motives.
Because of forgeries linked to her friend and life-threatening
incidents, she needs Boyd, who worked with her before. She never forgot
his sexy magnetism and wry sense of humor that masked pain. This strong
man will investigate and keep her safe, but can Gemma trust him with her
heart and soul?
When sparks between them ignite to flames, the danger escalates—to their lives and their hearts. AMAZON LINK
4 STARS
This was a well written story with plenty of action. It also had plenty of unpredictable moments.
Gemma and Boyd worked well together even though they had to work through some times of suspicions. Especially Boyd at first , there had been hints that she might not be an innocent.
Even as he guards her, a friendship with attraction begins to develop that leads to some very non-bodyguard like heat. I thought that their emotions and romance was both sweet and spicy. Both of them have "ghosts" that they have to deal with too. It seems like Boyd is having the harder time about that than Gemma.
I liked the supporting cast when it comes to the investigations and the story comes to a flaming unexpected ending. With a good Epilogue which I always enjoy.
On a side note, I liked that later on the title is shown to be a good one. A couple of times that phrase comes up and the reason why. I like that when the title makes that kind of sense.
I received a free ARC of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
