BLURB
Miss Congeniality meets The Bodyguard
Alexa Reeves
The quarterback of
the NY Kings has a body to die for, and as Dean Walker’s bodyguard I’m
right in the line of fire. If that’s not dangerous enough, I’m posing as
his girlfriend to keep close. Yet, that isn’t
the worst part. He says I need a makeover to pass as his arm candy.
Jerk. The more time I spend with him, the more my undercover role blurs
with reality, and I’ll lose more than my job if I step over the line and
into his bed.
Dean Walker
Let’s get something
straight. I didn’t ask for protection, especially in the form of a
female. Isn’t a death threat just another day in the life of a NY
quarterback? Still, the owner of the team forces me to
accept a security detail led by the tiny but tough Alexa Reeves.
But who is the
real Alexa? The bodyguard, sworn to protect me, or the made-over vixen,
determined to drive me crazy? As the stalker closes in, I realize I’ve
put more than my life in her hands. Will Alexa
safeguard my heart as fiercely as my body?

EXCERPT
Who the hell was knocking at my door at 7:00 a.m.?
Normally, I’d be in bed with a smoking, curvy body snaked around me.
Instead I’d become the fucking poster boy for celibacy. Horny as hell, I
was not in a good
mood. I whipped the door open, ready to take my frustration out on
whoever was on the other side.
A barrel of a gun stared
back at me. What the fuck? You would think my quick reflexes on the
field would serve me off it. In this case they didn’t.
“Bang, bang, you’re dead,”
quipped Reeves. My bodyguard smirked as she lowered her gun. “The
security in this building sucks. I swept right by the doorman. And if
you bothered to check the peephole, you wouldn’t
be shitting in your Superman boxers right now.”
She breezed by, rolling a
large suitcase behind her. Half naked, I just stood there,
thunderstruck. Because of how Reeves looked with her hair down or
because of the gun, I couldn’t say—or admit to.
Turning my head as she
passed, I detected a slight wobble in her gait, from the heels no doubt.
Still, her ass had a sexy sway in the body- hugging skirt. And what a
body she had. Why did she hide those curves underneath
boxy suits? Criminal. Hitting just above the knee, there was nothing
criminal about the length of her skirt. She rocked it like that chick
from
Madmen, and somehow it was way hotter than a miniskirt.
Parking the suitcase by the end table, she turned and slid the gun inside her blazer, like it was a wallet instead of a weapon.
She was a walking
contradiction. Was I more turned on by the way she handled the gun or by
her cleavage beckoning me to suffocate myself in it? And those lips,
now enhanced with a red gloss, made my morning hard-on
roar back with a vengeance.
She looked soft.
Touchable. But the look was lost in translation when it came to her body
language. With her hands on her hips, she was as tough as the steel of
the gun she carried. “Are you going to shut the door
or what?”
REVIEW
4 stars
While this book was extremely predictable it was still really good. It had some seriously HOT scenes between Alexa and Dean...Those two definitely had some serious attraction. Dean, is a player plain and simple. He has a following and women throw themselves at him. He's a hunky athlete with the attitude to follow. Anyway, someone has a stalker and the league is worried. He doesn't think he needs it but as soon as he sees Alexa, that changes. Alexa, is one determined bodyguard. She is dedicated to her job and has proven she is as good if not better then the men in her profession. While she is hesistant about playing the girlfriend, she still does it.. Things change as they spend more time together and she sees a different side to Dean.
This book really was cute and sweet. I highly enjoyed reading it!!
