Perfect Hideaway

Mason Creek #23

by Bethany Lopez

She may sing country, but she's a city girl at heart...

Melody Miles is country music's current darling. When a fan goes from enthusiastic to scary, she and her manager agree it's a good idea for her to get out of Nashville and find a place to lay low. Luckily, he knows a guy who runs a security company and lives in a small town in the middle of nowhere, Montana. She may stick out like a sore thumb at first but eventually fits right in with the people of Mason Creek.

He's rough on the outside, with a gooey center...

Enzo Fratelli is a retired military man and owner of a successful company, so moving back home to help his dad was an easy decision. When his new superstar client needs to hide away from a stalker, Mason Creek is the perfect place for her to go ingognito. On the surface they have nothing in common, but the more time they spend together, the more she sneaks past his defenses.

Mason Creek is Melody's Perfect Hideaway, and Enzo will do everything he can to keep her safe. Too bad while he was protecting her, he wasn’t protecting his heart.

I adored everything about this small town romance. Perfect Hideaway was another great addition to this series.

Melody is a famous country singer who’s also a city girl at heart. She needs to get away for a while, out of Nashville, for safety reasons. She heads to Mason Creek, Montana. She is pleasantly surprised, in more ways than one.

Little did she know that the sexy security guy who’s hired to keep her safe would make her want to make some changes in her life. After you meet Enzo, you’ll see why.

These two were so cute together and when they couldn’t fight their attraction any longer, they were smokin’ hot. They tried to fight it, but opposites do attract, the pull was too strong, and their chemistry sizzled.

Not only was this a well-written story, but it made me feel all sorts of things. Warm fuzzy things, happy things, and all the things that make me smile and swoon. Throw in a little suspense and this made a perfect read.

The author did a great job at pulling me into the pages and making me want to keep turning them. Mason Creek is one of those fictional towns I’d love to visit. I really need to and want to read more books from this series. If you’re looking to read any books from the Mason Creek series, this book would be a good place to start.

Poor Melody, she's living her dream as a country star, but she's now getting the downfall to her dream, a stalker. And like any good stalker, that person is escalating to the point that she needs to get away to lie low for a bit which has her arriving in Mason Creek. Enzo has a successful security company that he's moved back to Mason Creek to help his father out, which is how Melody got sent to him. Of course Enzo has that whole don't go there with clients despite the fact that these two have a connection which is only getting stronger the more they get to know each other so you already know it's only a matter of time. I love to travel back to Mason Creek where the people are absolutely awesome with all their nosy ways, and with Melody's stalker, it gives the reader a hint of suspense as well! Perfect Hideaway was a delightful addition to the Mason Creek world & I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This is Melody and Enzo’s story. Melody is supposed to be kind of hiding out. A fan got a little crazy and she is in hiding. Her manager sends her to a town he can get protection for her at. Enzo is retired military and owns a security company. His new client is Melody. The sparks fly. They are nothing alike but that seems to draw them together even more. Can he protect her from danger and keep her at a distance or is he about to lose not only his head but his heart as well?

I recommend this book.

Man I hope this series never ends 😊 I say this after every one of these books I read. I want to live in Mason Creek 😊

Melody is a famous country singer. While on the road performing one night after a show a stalker cornered her in her dressing room. Her manager then decides maybe its best that she takes a bit of time away from the limelight and lay low. This is where she gets to hide out in Mason Creek under the watchful eye of head of security team, Enzo.

Enzo loves his job. Sometimes it’s a bit tiring dealing with famous people but he deals with it and does his job. So protecting famous Melody Miles should be an easy job. But the more time he spends with her, the more he gets to know the person behind the fame and the more he wants to get to know her, but he cant as this will get in the way of doing his job right…

Definitely another amazing story from Mason Creek. Enzo was hot and totally alpha protective. Melody was sweet and charming and not what you would expect from a famous singer who grew up wealthy. I loved the chemistry they had and totally loved the suspense thrown in to make this an amazing read 😊 Cant wait for the next story love interest in this Town 😊

Melody was the newest country singer on the road and one night after a show she was getting dressed when a stalker barged in to her dress room and didn’t care how many lines he was crossing. It was then that her manager decided she needed a break and a safe hideaway til the crazy calmed down and he knew right where she needed to go Mason Creek where an amazing security team was located. Well it was being moved there but the owner was there and he was the best former military in the business. Enzo loved his job he had high profile clients all over and starting his business in California was the reasoning for that, so when he got a call from a friend that a country star needed a place to hide out that be safe he knew he was ready for that job. But when these two are together all day every day while Melody was out of Nashville and living under his roof, will they be able to keep it business casual or will feelings start to conjure up for them.

Melody was a country singer who had been getting emails, letters, and gifts from her “biggest fan”. I can’t imagine how she felt when a man accosted her in her dressing room after singing one night. Thankfully her manager had a good friend in Mason Creek who had his own security business, and asked him to let Melody stay with him and protect her. Enzo was a big, handsome man who met Melody at the airport. Enzo was a good man and had moved back to Mason Creek to help his father who was having some medical problems. It was so heartwarming to see how well Enzo’s dad, Melody and her dog got along. It was so much fun reading about a small town, the people in it, and some of the things they did there. There were a few happenings regarding Melody’s safety that was scary. I felt bad for Enzo as he was attracted to Melody and she to him, but he didn’t want to mix business with pleasure. This may have caused a few problems. I enjoyed reading the book and encourage you to read it, I was given a copy and voluntarily wrote a review.

[Sarah Dale · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another brilliant addition to this fantastic series.

Melody is living the dream as a country music star but this life has a downside in the shape of a stalker. When her stalkers efforts become even more scary she need to lie low and what better place to do that then Masons Creek.

Enzo has a successful security company but has had to move back to Mason's Creek to help his father out so it works out well with Melody being there too so that he can protect her.

Its not long till the professional lines between client and protected get blurred as they spend a lot of time together getting to know each other. The chemistry is off the charts hot and I loved them together. Nothing hotter then an over-protective Alpha male like Enzo. Prepare for a lot of swooning.

Well done Bethany on a fantastic, page-turning read.

i was gifted a copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion from the Author and HEA Pr & More

More perfection from Mason Creek! Melody Miles, a country singer, has a stalker and needs to lie low. Nashville is not safe for her right now; lucky for her, Enzo is moving his security business to Mason Creek. It is perfect, but is Melody a city or country girl? Is it Enzo’s turn to fall? Of course, but he has rules in place about dating clients.

The side characters are great, and I look forward to more of Mario, Tank, and Gino. A short break until the next visit to Mason Creek.

Thank you to the Author for the advanced copy; this is my voluntary review.

Melody is a successful country music star who has drawn the attention of the wrong man and his attempts to get close to her are continuing to escalate. Her manager believes the best course of action is to leave town for a while so he arranges for her to stay in Mason Creek where Enzo will provide security.

Enzo owns his own security company and has recently moved back to his hometown to be there for his dad. He knows that crossing the line from professional to personal could have dire consequences, but he may just find out that some rewards are worth the risk.

Captivating characters, a heartwarming romance and a little suspense all add up to an entertaining story.

[Lisa Petty (Book Bangers Blog) · Rating 5 out of 5]

Melody Miles is a country girl whose music is off the charts. When a fan becomes too much she needs a place to hide. Her manager sends her to Mason Creek under the protection of Enzo Fratelli. These two have chemistry for sure but Enzo has a job to do and that is to protect Melody at all costs. He shows her the ropes and tries to make sure that she's not being coped up. When her stalker comes to a close Enzo has to do whatever he can to protect her, but will he be too late? This book has you on pins and needles.

[Suzanne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh my stars! Where do I begin on this one! Perfect Hideaway will sweep you off your feet with unexpected twists, intense passion and so much more. I loved how Melody on the surface could be one of those celebs that are beyond demanding but is so beyond down to earth. Pairing her with Enzo was absolutely everything. While he may be all about the job to protect her, he cannot help falling for her. Their push and pull was epic. Their banter was everything. I could not get enough. Even when things came to head with the stalker, it was perfection. I enjoyed every moment of this one and devoured it once I started. Amazing addition to the Mason Creek world!

Because of a stalker, a singer is in need of a body guard that will go above and beyond to keep her safe, laying low in Mason creek.

Small town romances are one of my favorite genres, and Perfect Hideaway didn't disappoint. When country superstar Melody Miles is forced to leave Nashville due to a stalker, she ends up in Mason Creek Montana, under the care and protection of the sexy Enzo Fratelli. Enzo has a security company and was hired to keep Melody safe. But can he do his job and not fall in love with her? I loved all the characters, especially Enzo's father. This sparks between Melody and Enzo are great, and I love how down-to-earth they all are. If you're a fan of small town romance, this book is for you.

Another perfect book In the Mason Creek collection.
Country music star Melody needs a place to lay low because of a stalker problem. Enzo, former Marine and owner of a security company has moved himself and the business head quarters back home to Mason Creek. It's the perfect place for Melody to hide.
All the characters are amazing as usual, I completely fell in love with Melody, Enzo Enzos father Mario and everyone else who call Mason Creek their home.
Sweet romance with a hint of danger, heaps of chemistry and small town charm.
Gotta love Mason Creek ❤️

Visiting Mason Creek never gets old. From heartwarming fun to heartbreaking drama and intriguing hints of danger, there's always a surprise waiting to be discovered. This time around Bethany Lopez reminisces of love and heartache while luring emotions into an unpredictable sense of security. Melody and Enzo walk a fine line between romance and danger. An edgy second chance drama.

[Rita · Rating 5 out of 5]

Enzo has returned to Mason Creek after leaving the marines and now runs his own security business. One of his first jobs is to take over protection of country star, Melody from a stalker fan. He is determined to keep things professional but Melody has other ideas. A fun and hot addition to this series with an interesting suspenseful twist to the story. Read an ARC for an honest review.

This may be my first book in the Mason Creek Series but not my first by Lopez. She always does an amazing job. Once again it’s great world and character-building on her part. This story is about Enzo and Melody. They have such great chemistry.

country star and former marine

Cute story, easy to read. A slew of new characters but they were all very believable. I love that Mason creek was able to keep a secret. This could be a stand alone book.
