Más allá del deber

by Clara Ann Simons

Hay líneas que nunca deben cruzarse.
Dakota Martínez, exmilitar reconvertida en guardaespaldas de élite, vive según ese código. Pero cuando le asignan proteger la vida de una brillante inventora, esas líneas comienzan a difuminarse.
Fingir ser su novia parece la excusa perfecta para estar a su lado... hasta que la farsa comienza a ser demasiado real.
Anna Sinclair no construyó un imperio multimillonario confiando a la ligera en otras personas. Su revolucionario proyecto de energía limpia y barata podría cambiar el mundo… o acabar con su vida. Demasiada responsabilidad, lo último que necesita es una guardaespaldas paranoica que no se separa de ella ni un instante. Especialmente, una cuya feroz protección despierta sentimientos que en estos momentos no puede permitirse.
Empresaria y guardaespaldas se verán en vueltas en una letal conspiración con batallas corporativas, amenazas y persecuciones en un thriller romántico que no podrás dejar.
Porque muchas veces, la persona que mejor te protegerá es la que lucha por tu corazón.

[Sam’s Sapphic Reads · Rating 2 out of 5]

Honestly, I just didn’t like it. There was a lot of details lacking, things such as hair color or their age that helps me create a mental image on what they look like. Everything was rushed, to the jumping in bed and I love yous. It has so so much potential if it was just a little bit longer. A CEO and bodyguard romance is right up my alley, but it was missing so much! I had wished there was more action too since Dakota was meant to protect Anna because people literally wanted to kill her. If it was about double in size, I think it would’ve been a great story. But because it was so short there was a lot of things missing that gives you the ability to picture the story. It kind of felt like a Wattpad story.

This has so much potential if it weren't as rushed as it was. The plot would have been so good if the author explored more elements instead of getting straight to the "I love yous". Also, the steamy scenes were just cringe and I had to skip them. I would probably read it again in the future, but it's at the very bottom of my list.

I liked the story and the characters but it felt like reading the main bullet points without much depth.

Lectura rápida, fresca. Calidad garantizada. La fuerza de las protagonistas te engancha desde el primer capítulo.

"Acabo de leer 'Más allá del deber' de Clara Ann Simons y fue justo lo que necesitaba 😌 Es un libro súper corto y fácil de leer, de esos que te enganchas en una tarde y lo terminas sin darte cuenta. Historia de bodyguard + inventora con toques románticos sapphic, tensión profesional y todo el rollo de 'no debo cruzar esta línea'... pero se besan MUY pronto 😂 La única pega que le pongo es que no hay casi build-up ni tensión sexual lenta, ¡se lanza todo rapidísimo!
Aun así, es ideal para una lectura rápida y cómoda cuando has leído libros pesados que te han desgastado emocionalmente. Perfecto para desconectar sin complicaciones. 3.5/5 🌟
¿Lo habéis leído? ¿Os molan las romances bodyguard?

A quick palate cleanser

This book was a well-developed and engaging read. The plot and characters were thoughtfully crafted, and the story flowed smoothly, keeping my interest throughout. While it was a relatively simple read, it was still captivating. I would have liked more insight into the other conspirators, but overall, this is a great choice for anyone looking for a quick and compelling story.

suspense & games

Almost futuristic in technological advancement with a powerful message about corporate greed & fear. Wish some of this were truly on the tech palette today. And the relationship is palpably acceptable!

Great story!

Intense at the right times, honesty and vulnerability in spades. A great read! A great short story, wished it had been longer for that reason.

[Judy - JC · Rating 2 out of 5]

For me, this story had so much potential—yet I couldn't shake the feeling the author was just rushing toward the ending.

Oddly enough, I didn't feel comfortable reading the smut scenes either.

[Kirian · Rating 4 out of 5]

3.75 because it's not that bad, but also not that good. Characters are decent, storyline, plot all good. Something feels missing though.

[JessiThrower · Rating 5 out of 5]

Una historia que te enganchará desde el inicio, con unas protagonistas formidables.

[Paul Mccann · Rating 5 out of 5]

Buen libro

Una trama interesante con dos protagonistas. Tiene acción y pasión. Además fue bien escrito, voy a buscar otras novelas suyas.

[Azhure · Rating 2 out of 5]

I didn't hate it, and I feel like there was potential there. But I think with the book being so short, there just wasn't enough time for any of it to be properly developed. It felt so rushed, and even by the end, I just wasn't that invested in the couple.
