Bodyguards Unlimited, Denver, Colorado #3

by Elle James

A job he couldn't refuse
Ten years ago Army Ranger Cameron Morgan left his family's ranch with no plans to return...his former sweetheart and the life he'd fled.

A past he couldn't forget
Jennie Ward had been injured and her ranch sabotaged, so Cameron was critical to surviving an investigation that was getting riskier by the minute. But keeping his professional distance was nearly impossible, especially after Jennie nearly lost her life on his watch. Still, as his need to guard her mixed with his hunger to find the truth, Cameron found it hard to resist the pull of his old life - not to mention Jennie's offer of a second chance....

About the author

Award-winning author Elle James grew up as an air force military brat. She received her work ethic from her rock-solid father, her creative streak from her artistic mother and inspiration from her writing partner and sister, Delilah Devlin. As a former member of the army reserves and a current member of the air force reserves, she's traveled across the United States and to Germany, managed a full-time job, and raised three wonderful children. She and her husband have even tried their hands at ranching exotic birds (ostriches, emus and rheas) in the Texas hill country. Ask her, and she'll tell you what it's like to go toe-to-toe with an angry three-hundred-and-fifty-pound bird and live to tell about it!

Her adventures in the army and air force reserves, and the wild antics of her life on a small ranch in Texas give her fodder for mystery, suspense and humor in her writing. Elle writes gothic, paranormal mystery for the Harlequin Intrigue line and paranormal romantic comedy for Dorchester Publishing. A former manager of computer programming and project management professionals, Elle is happy she now has the opportunity to pursue her writing full time.

[Kate Vale · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cameron Morgan works for a private security firm. What a surprise when his new assignment involves his own family and the girl he fell in love with 10 years earlier on the adjoining ranch.

His assignment--protect Jennie Ward and her father--as a colleague protects his family. But is the assignment already doomed when one "accident" after another occurs? Who among the cowhands can be trusted when oil is the prize? And how can Cameron focus when he's with Jennie and she's the ultimate distraction?

Interesting story. Characters were fun and rather stubborn.
