Avoiding housework one word at a time (thanks in part to her super-helpful herd of cats >^..^<), Larissa daydreams about brownies, chocolate-covered peanuts, and 007. She’s been a clown, a tax analyst, and a pig castrator (!) but nothing satisfies quite like seeing the entertaining voices in her head come to life on the page.

A scarred bodyguard with a secret past.
Slave to his guilt, Rio Tarin has spent a decade watching over Juliana from the shadows. Now he must reveal himself-or risk losing her all over again.
An ex-soldier in need of an angel.
Cord Ramsey returns from war only to discover his family home sold out from under him. Rio, the current owner, proposes a deal-Cord can keep his property if he can keep one wild woman under protective custody for a few days.
The feisty reporter they both want to save.

This book was an intense ride. It has sex, suspense, and serious inner turmoil. It kept me engrossed from page one and never let go.
Juli has thought Rio dead for ten years and moved on with her life. She is a kick ass, take charge reporter who has no problems going after what or whom she wants. Rio has been living with the guilt of her parents' death and secretly lusting after Juli. While his heart is in the right place, like all alpha males he goes about protecting her in the wrong way. Him showing up out of the blue, sort of rising from the dead and kidnapping her leaves Juli wide open to trust and lean on someone else. Enter Cord, the damaged soldier, who came home from war to find he has no home or family left.
These are some characters with serious emotional damage. Rio and Cord also have physical scars. The authors do a wonderful job of describing the issues of each character. Each one, troubled and hurt in their own way, relates to another in different ways. The relationship that blossoms between Cord and Juli is light hearted and fun. Juli and Rio have the ghosts of the past to deal with so it isn't smooth sailing there. Cord and Rio find common ground and manage to help each other overcome demons in the process.
This book is as much about romance as it is about how the right relationships can heal the soul and heart! Not your typical ménage set in a fictional town where this stuff is the norm; this is more about a real life relationship in the real world and all the potential problems that could go along with it. That combined with the suspense element and lives on the line made this book one of the most interesting reads I have had in a long time. I highly recommend it!

Juli has been living the last ten years believing her high school crush, Rio, died in a plane crash with her parents. But one night while leaving an awards ceremony, she is kidnapped by none other than Rio himself.
Rio is trying to protect Juli from drug cartel members who have placed a hit on her. So when Rio takes her to one of his properties to hide out, he is surprised to find Cord living there.
Cord and Juli form an instant friendship and attraction that Rio notices, and feels a little uneasy about. But seeing Cord and Juli together intimately also turns him on. Juli on the other hand, can’t stop thinking about Rio even during sex with Cord.
Once again the sex is smoking and always entertaining. Juli and Cord’s relationship was more fun-loving, like two best friends falling in love. Her relationship with Rio however didn’t feel so carefree. There was years of regret and longing between those two plus Rio’s issues with his appearance.
I did tend to feel bad for Cord about Juli having sex with him while calling out Rio’s name. But Cord didn’t seem to have a problem with it, so I guess I shouldn’t either.
