Protecting Clara: A Body Guards False Fiance To Lovers

by Sloan Madison

She’s curvy, brilliant, and completely off-limits.

I’m ex-Navy SEAL muscle, guarding a genius—and I’m losing control.

Our cover? A fake engagement to keep her hidden in plain sight.

I’m Derek Stone—protector, single dad, and by-the-book bodyguard.

Dr. Clara Michaels is everything I’m not supposed to want.

A shy wallflower with a dangerous invention, a stubborn streak, and curves that undo me.

My mission is keep her safe, keep my hands off.

But this small town sees everything.

And every glance, every brush of skin, blurs the line between pretend and real.

Jessa’s rules say no romance with clients.

My heart says break every one.

I’ve handled bullets, ambushes, and betrayal.

But falling for Clara?

That might be the one risk I can’t come back from.

[Julie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fast paced and full of action, this romantic suspence had everything. Derek, a former SEAL, is assigned to protect innovative physicist Clara after her discovery garners attention from the wrong people and puts her on a kill list. The explosive tension starts right from their first meeting. From there it's a constant battle to stay ahead if those wanting her dead and wanting her research. Neither expected the chemistry and attraction that sizzles between them whenever their in the same room. That merely puts another target on their collective backs. The threat continues to tighten the net as family comes under fire. They're running out of time, and people they can trust.

A great, suspenseful romance that will keep you on your toes and flying through the pages. I was gifted a copy of this book and voluntarily provided this review. Happy Reading Y'all 📚
