Captivated by my Undercover Bodyguard
He’s not just here to protect me… he’s here to deceive me. But when the fake kisses start feeling real, I don’t know what’s more the assassin hunting me, or losing my heart to a lie.
Rachel
As the daughter of a billionaire with enemies lurking in the shadows, I’m always in danger.
My father insists I need constant protection.
Enter Conrad—cold, imposing, and dangerously controlled.
Officially, he’s my bodyguard.
Unofficially, he’s everywhere I turn. Watching. Guarding. Too close.
But what I don’t know is that Conrad isn’t only protecting me.
He’s undercover… and I’m part of his mission.
The more time we spend together, the harder it becomes to tell what’s real.
His touches linger too long.
His gaze burns too hot.
And the feelings building between us are far too intense to be pretending.
Because the greatest threat might not be the danger chasing me…
…it might be falling for the man who’s been lying to me from the start.
Conrad
Pretending to be Rachel’s bodyguard was supposed to be simple—get close, uncover her father’s secrets, complete the mission.
But Rachel is nothing like I expected.
She’s fearless, rebellious, impossible to ignore.
Every smile, every scent, every moment alone with her chips away at my control.
I came here to investigate, not to want her. Not to crave her.
And now I’m trapped between duty and desire.
Her life is on the line. My cover is slipping.
And the deeper I fall, the more impossible betrayal becomes.
Because Rachel isn’t just a job anymore.
She’s the one thing I can’t lose.
THE HEAT In a world of danger, deception, and deadly secrets, love was never part of the plan.
But as an assassin closes in and the lies unravel, I must make an impossible
Complete the mission or risk everything to protect the woman who owns my heart.
Captivated by my Undercover Bodyguard is a thrilling romantic suspense featuring an undercover bodyguard, forced proximity, and high-stakes danger. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed Happily Ever After.

"My nails dig into his neck, and he hisses slightly. "I'm sorry," I blurt out, removing my hand. "I didn't say stop,"
I wanted to love it. But I feel that it was too early in the editing stages. It goes back and forth from the past tense to the present tense, so it's confusing. The FMC is not that young, yet her behaviors with her bodyguards are behaviors exhibited by kids or teenagers playing games on people trying to keep them safe. Her behavior did not truly match her age. Some of the MMC's behaviors also do not match his level of intelligence and skill set needed to hold a position as an undercover FBI agent. Who keeps files at the place of his undercover job? I feel that all these things will probably come up with the content editor.

OH MY... THIS ONE WAS BEYOND AMAZING and seriously I wanted more of Conrad and Rachel and just everything about them.
This book grabbed me right from that first page and honestly bodyguard romances are not my top Favorite but this one certainly has become my top favourite.
Conrad is an FBI agent who needs a donor for his sick mom and when an assignment lands in his lap to go undercover, he's ready to say no to it because for him his mother is the most important person to him.
But when he learns that taking this job will bump his mother's name in the donor list, he has no other option but to say Yes.
What Conrad didn't expect was to meet a sassy Spitfire who loves to throw attitude and yet is a warm girl underneath all that sass.
Rachel doesn't understand why her father needs her to be protected and doesn't want a bodyguard to shadow her every moment.
She does her best to be a brat about this but because she really doesn't understand or knows the danger that surrounds her.
When after discarding many bodyguards, she finds that her new one is definitely not one who will easily be frightened off and certainly seems to be made of tougher material.
Ok, let me just say.... GO AND READ THIS BOOK AND I PROMISE YOU ARE GONNA LOVE EACH AND EVERY MOMENT OF THIS RIDE.
I loved that chemistry right from the start between Rachel and Conrad. The way they can feel those sparks but don't want to acknowledge them.
The heated sessions between them while training and the sneaky glances and the showing off hate to each other but what's actually blatant desire for each other... Ahh I was so melting from each encounter.
And when they finally give into their temptation... Yes freaking please. It was immensely melting and trust me, their spicy times together will raise your temperature for sure. 🔥🌶️
But there's also the fact that Conrad is hiding a huge secret from Rachel and which might just ruin Rachel's entire world.
Also, the fact that Conrad doesn't know how he will deal with these unknown feelings for someone he's forbidden to get involved with makes sure we are in for a rollercoaster ride.
There's just something about the writing that kept this story addictive to me and each interaction and moments had me devouring this book like crazy.
Conrad and Rachel were making me want more of them even when I turned that last page. Ahh.... What a freaking amazing ride. Absolutely loved loved this one. 💗💗💗💗💗

I have read plenty of bodyguard and undercover agent books, but this is one of the best I have read. Usually, when you read them, it is the undercover agent infiltrating an organization and trying to bring them down. In this book, it was him getting hired as the bodyguard of a billionaire’s daughter and trying to get information on her father’s alleged illegal business activities. There are not a whole bunch of gun fights, beating people up, or any of the “gang activities” you see in the other books.
Conrad is an FBI agent who is selected to take on a high-priority assignment. He has some very important things going on in his life, and taking an assignment at this time is not something that he is comfortable doing, but when he is given a life-changing opportunity, he knows he has to take it. After taking the job and Rachel ends up in danger, Conrad realizes there is so much more to Rachel and that he is more invested than just as her bodyguard, but he has to decide which is more important, his mission or being with her.
Rachel is his principal for this assignment. She has been through multiple bodyguards in just the last week. She made a wager with her friend Jess as to how fast each would leave. She thinks she has finally won against her father when Conrad arrives. She soon realizes that not only is he not going to be an easy one to get to leave, but that he won’t be an easy one for her to avoid being attracted to either.
I enjoyed this book because of the realistic way their relationship grows. They don’t just hop into bed together asap. They build up their chemistry, and then it comes to a head in a natural way. Amelia writes this story with a real-life feel as they go through their confrontations and how each event they have going on in their lives is handled. There are so many books that you read that there is no emotion or personality put into the story or the characters in the story, but with this book, there is plenty of both.
If you enjoy a good book about forced proximity, second chances, and enemies to lovers, then this book should be next on your TBR list! There are s*x scenes, but nothing too graphic.

DNF. Plot is good but too many mistakes make it unreadable.
I can ignore a lot of mistakes, when the book is good and it was at first. Conrad is an FBI agent that is tasked with bringing down a crooked businessman by being his daughters bodyguard. At first Conrad refuses to do it as his mother is extremely poorly needing a liver transplant. This is the first big mistake. His mothers liver failing and she’s dying without a transplant, she would be YELLOW not white! Moving on I tried to ignore it as it was still quite good. It went rapidly downhill from there, sadly.
Conrad is the perfect agent to go undercover as Rachel’s bodyguard. So why have they not erased his history at the FBI or changed it to look like he was sacked ages ago. Instead they’re floundering around making up a stupid backstory of why he’s still listed as an agent! 🙈🙄
When he eventually starts as Rachel’s bodyguard they instantly want each other but he manages to stay professional for a FEW DAYS, then they have weird sex. With him talking to her constantly. Then afterwards he panics and avoids her for a few days. How is he a trained FBI agent???? He never sees her father or goes into his office so how is he going to find any evidence against him???
Then there the spelling and missing words. Whole sentences are missing at times, or just the odd word. For example. After Conrad and Rachel have sex he avoids her for a few days. Rachel confronts him and says: “You’ve been me! “ erm…. Think there’s a word avoiding missing. It’s far from the only mistake in the book. I don’t believe that Rachel would still live at home. She’s in her late twenties and has two jobs,she’s not close to her dad at all, he basically controls her whole life and yet she’s still there. It doesn’t make sense.

I got this book from HiddenGems, and when I began reading it, it was pretty great... but there are definitely grammatical errors, and at one point, it seemed a whole sentence was missing. There are also conflicting passages, and I had to reread to make sure I didn't read it wrong the first time. Still plowed through, and I do like how it all flows together despite the flaws. Conrad James is an undercover FBI agent who falls in love with the woman he is protecting. There is intrigue, underlying tensions, and I love the aspect of physical health that is added with the mother.
Overall, I think it was a good book, but the grammatical errors throughout were pretty bad, especially towards the end of the book. The dirty talk during the sex scenes as well was a little much. It just seemed slightly ridiculous. I'm not sure if people actually really talk to each other like that.. LOL but okay...

If you like a fast-paced, action-packed, suspenseful, steamy romance, look no further. You must read this book! I couldn't stop flipping page after page, chapter after chapter, just to see what would happen next. There's even some mystery - is Rachel's dad good or bad? If he's good, why is he talking with bad men? And how can Conrad do his job knowing it could end up hurting Rachel? Amelia has the best way of making you care about each character, and the way she writes the love scenes between Rachel and Conrad? Whew! I'm sure I was blushing each time. Definitely one of my top favorite authors!

Conrad is an FBI agent who is selected to take on a high-priority assignment. He's concerned because his ma is about to have liver surgery ... Sac can get her bumped up to have the transplant like in a couple of days but ONLY if ... Conrad takes the assignment....... After taking the job, he develops feelings for his charge... Rachel ,... She finds out he is still fbi and they have a tiff... but Conrad is always close by.... eventually Rachel ends up in danger, Conrad realizes there is so much more to his feelings for Rachel than just as her bodyguard,...... he's torn thankfully mr moretti helps him realize his hearts desire and helps the fbi out ...

This was a great book. Fast paced and a good take on characters.
When Conrad goes undercover to investigate Rachel's dad, as her bodyguard, he can't stay away from her.
I did enjoy these characters and the connection that made. Also the way they couldn't leave each other alone. The banter was well done and a little funny at times.
Very well done. Well written and a great play on characters as well as an enthralling plot. This was a first from this author but not my last. Great work!!

He is an FBI agent who is undercover as her bodyguard while trying to find out her father secrets. He did not expect to fall for her, she is everything he could ever want in a woman. He knows he should pull away but he is in too deep. Will he find the secrets he needs? Will she find out who he really is? What if she does? How will it all end? See how they get on

I enjoyed the connection and chemistry between these two, the dance they did, the changes they inspired in each other and that when push came to shove they were there for each other. I liked the strong bonds shown, the twists and turns, and the mixture of the investigation, the protection, being yourself and falling in love. I am voluntarily leaving this review after receiving an ARC from Hidden Gems.

Words cannot describe how incredibly good this was. I was hooked right from the start as I adore FBI themed books. Not only do we get a suspenseful story but a super steamy romance as well. It is the best of both worlds in my opinion. Absolutely loved it. Would love another book as there was a surprise nugget at the end that needs to be explored.

This is the second book in The Off-Limits Bodyguards series. I was drawn into Conrad and Rachel’s story right away and couldn’t put it down! It’s so steamy and full of suspense. It’s action packed, fast paced and the plot is very well developed. An excellent read.
