4.5 stars
The series features a dedicated group of alpha men who work for a protection security team. Their mission is to protect those in need and eliminate those who pose a threat. Each member is described as sexy, with a soft side that emerges when they meet the one woman who could change their womanizing ways. I'm completely hooked on this series and the characters with their banter and sarcasm. The mix of action, danger, fun, and laughter has me fully engaged. I've discovered a new author whose books I can't wait to read more of.

November 5, 2022The next best book in the BRAVO Team series....
Jewels finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time, when she witnesses a murder and the killer may know exactly who she is when he threatens her. Ofcourse her first instinct is to flee home to her older brother her protector, but now she realises that may have been a huge mistake, she could be putting Bentley and his family at a huge risk too. Thankfully her brothers best friend and the man she is incredibly attracted to steps in to help her.
Owen "Apollo" as his team mates call him is also incredibly atracted to Jewels but he doesn't think he is good enough for her and Jewels is his best friends little sister, he doesn't even think Bentley his best friend thinks he is good enough for his little sister. But Apollo knows he can do something like protect Jewels with his life. In doing that he may have to let her in on secrets and a past he tells no one not even his team, and he is not sure he is even equipped to do that.
Jewel's is falling fast for Apollo, but she has lots of her own secrets, can she open up to Apollo as well as be completely comfortable trusting a man a man that can bring out so many insecurities of her past. Just as their relationship seems to be developing Jewels and Apollo's hide out is compromised and they are running for their lives from a crazy mad man. Can this relationship ever be something with the two of them. Will they even survive the chase of a mad man to even have a relationship with one another? I highly recommend this book there is as much action and suspense as there is in very hot sex. Can't wait for the next book and to see where the team and Kendra's next moves takes them!!!

Jewels is definitely more than Owen expects her to be. And she may be almost too much for him to handle, but I mean that in the best way. She doesn’t shy away from the hard conversations, she knows her mind and who she is, and she would give Owen everything if he would just open up to her. But Owen is a man. And men do stupid things. Like stick feet and half a leg in their mouths to avoid opening up. Luckily, Owen catches a clue and lets his heart convince his head to weigh all options. It’s just too bad they may not survive what his heart sees for their future.
This story didn’t become boring or less adventurous just because some big danger is done for this series. Not hardly. Instead, we go on a big ride of “who really want someone gone” through the great outdoors, and the final answers are a bit of a surprise. Not all is as it seems, and the reveal of who Jewels really is isn’t even the biggest surprise to come our way this time! I was hooked from jump and appreciate the disappointments dealt from a few folks who had a chance because it makes the whole story feel realistic and nowhere near the fluff of fiction.
Next up? Kendra. And I can’t wait!

The turn is for Owen “Apollo” Kelly, this one is so good. He fall head over heels without knowing it. She is everything he needs and didn’t knew. Together they are all you can imagine between stubbornness, sassiness and love. And together they are perfect for each other. Bentley doesn’t have much said thankfully lol. The cabin, the cave and all the atmosphere is amazing, reading this you can feel that you are there too with them ; ). You are going to laughed and swoon too, and obviously you are going to roll your eyes too, all with the perfect suspense. The Charlie team and Bravo team are the perfect combination and the perfect chosen family. Can’t finish this without saying, “can’t wait for the next book in the series” because omg, I can’t wait! I need more of Bravo Team!

I loved how strong and independent Jewels is. She is definitely a spitfire who will stop at nothing to get what she wants and she has her sights set on Owen. Owen is more reserved but Jewels brings out the best in him and when he is tasked with guarding Jewels he takes it seriously and will do anything and everything in his power to keep her safe and to make her his even though Jewels is technically off limits being to the fact that she is his teammate's sister. This is a great series with great stories and characters and I am so excited that there is more to come. Ms Baker gives us drama, love and passion and pure entertainment each and every time. Loved this book so much!

Action packed and sexy
Apollo and Jewels are incredible. Jewels in a whirlwind of adventure and big hearts. When she witnesses something she isn't supposed to see she runs straight to her big brother and his team. Owen "Apollo" volunteers to protect her and the tension and chemistry builds throughout the book.
As they hide, get chased, and evade detection Owen and Jewels collide together. Charlie and Bravo Team come in clutch and everyone gets their HEA and the bad guys are dealt with.
I was worried about the momentum of the storyline after Chasing Trista but this was one of the best and fastest paced of them all. Then there is the epilogue, it is leaving me pining for the next story. I can't wait for Blue's story!

Bravo 👏! Team Bravo, that is. Owen “Apollo” can’t stop thinking about her. Her being, his good friends sister, Jewels. And Jewels isn’t blind. Owen is definite eye candy. Jewels is on the run and needs help. Owen steps up to the plate to protect her. But the attraction is off the charts. Be prepared to grab a fan and some ice to cool down. Whew! These two have similar pasts. Trust is an issue. Can these two work through their secrets and get past this? A definite book you’ll want to pick up to find out. This book is fast paced right from the beginning. Kept me on the edge of my seat. Reading about all these alpha males catching the love bug, makes some pretty great reading. Don’t delay, grab this one today!

Jewels is a tough cookie that walks right in the face of danger and says take your best shot! She is brave and strong willed and everything you would ever want to be except a witness to a brutal murder! This book starts out with a bang and keeps you on your toes until the last words!
Owen is Jewel’s brother Bentleys best friend. Bentley would not be happy if he knew that Owen has been thinking about his sister for a long time now. Bentley knows all of Owen’s deep dark secrets. Owen would not blame Bentley if he kept Jewels away from him but Owen wants to be the one to protect her when her life is in danger.
This book is beautifully written and will keep you up all night to read one more page! I recommend this book but don’t start it on work night!

Guarding Jewels is book 3 in the Bravo Team series by Elizabella Baker
Jewels is on the run after witnessing a murder. She flees to her brother and his team for help.
Owen has not stopped thinking about Jewels since he met his friends younger sister. She is a spit fire, sassy and sweet. They have an instant connection and Owen insists he is the one to protect her.
They are both hiding things, but once they open up to one another it is explosive. Owen is so sweet but so full of doubt.
This was such a great book. I could not put it down. I just love this series
Elizabella gives us a little teaser at the end of what's coming next, and I can't wait!

Guarding Jewels by Elizabella Baker is the 3rd book in the bravo team series. This book stared Jewels and Owens “Apollo” Kelly, Jewels I loved from start to finish. She may have been a bit hot tempered but it worked with her personality perfectly. I love how she called everyone out on their crap. Apollo was the hot brooding type. I love a good brooder, especially one with a soft spot for our FMC. If you are looking for a romance with action, an alpha male and feisty heroine with some added spice I would definitely give this one a read! I can not wait for Blues book next. Each Bravo team book gets better and better.

Another great book in this fantastic series, each time I read one of these I decide this is my favourite book then the next one comes and blows it out of the water. Jewels is the sister of Owen's ream mate and as a result is out of bounds, however that is not going to deter the strong and feisty Jewels. The developing relationship between these two certainly leads to plenty of excitement and humour. Linked to a fast paced plot line this is certainly not a book to be missed. I read this bookfrom cover to cover without pausing and eagerly await the next in the series

3.5 stars from me.
So far, my favorite book in this series. I enjoyed Apollo’s character. The plot was interesting, but the far-fetched intertwining of the main characters and the bad guy was disappointing. Jewels was mildly annoying with her “I’m adventurous and sassy” persona. Instead she came across as an exhausting PITA. This is also a character trait that many of the females in this writer’s series. I personally find it annoying and unlikable and the main reason I rate this series in the 3 star range.

Received as an ARC and leaving my honest review voluntarily. Standalone in the series, so the other characters in the team make an appearance but this one is on Owen 'Apollo' and Jewels and because she's his team-mate Bentley's sister, you have that brother's best friend vibe that was hot and steamy. This was a fast paced exciting story that had a good mix of danger, suspense, action, emotion and steamy times that drew me in and kept me glued until the end. Can't wait for Kendra 'Blue's' story!

OMG!!! This story had me glue to its pages!
Apollo and Jewels’s story had me on edge!!!
Their story is filled with enough action to have you hanging by a thread!!
I can’t decide what I loved the most; the action, their banter, the chase, or their chemistry!!!
Can’t wait for Hunting Kendra!
I received an ARC, through BookFunnel, of this story and this is my voluntary review.

Such a great read.
So, not going to lie, I wasn't sure how Elizabella was going to continue the series after Trista's book wrapped up, seeing as that was the theme for the majority of the books in not only Brovo Team but also Charlie Team. But boy did she knock it out of the park. I had so much fun reading this one, all the twist and turns, the not know who or what was coming. It was a great read.

Third in the Bravo Team series, I enjoyed this book as much as the first two…the romance has just enough angst and heat without going overboard. There’s enough intrigue and action to avoid becoming sappy and predictable. I’ve yet to read any of the author’s other series, so I can’t say if she exclusively writes in dual POV (which I like) or if she sticks to the forced proximity and alpha male protector trope. Once I finish the next book, I hope to go back and explore her other titles.

Jewel is a how a sassy, sexy, strong & straight up no nonsense woman should be. Absolutely love her character. Her zest for life is vibrant. Apollo is such an alpha with a big heart but hate it when he doubts himself & his self worth. Wes as always bloody amazing. The danger, suspense & blazing hot steamy chemistry just leaves you sweating. So good!

Owen and Jewels have finally come together but both of them are hiding secrets. Jewels is on the run and Owen steps in to keep her safe. They both had crappy fathers and have to work past those issues to trust each other. This is a great read, and the story kept me on the edge of my seat. Love Bravo Team!!!

Jewel is on the run from witnessing a murder. She runs straight to his brother and his team. The team that includes Apollo the guy who she has a crush on. However, both of them have secrets? Will these secrets keep them from pursuing a relationship?? And when dangers comes knocking will they let those secrets keep them from HEA??? You have to read to see. Another great one from Elizabella.

An Amazing read once again. While it can be a stand alone, I highly recommend reading from the Charlie Series to this book on the Bravo team. While I loved the emotions it played, I was hooked right away. The suspense was wonderful, from the relationship to the plot, I couldn't put this book down. So glad Owen "Apollo" and Jewels got the book/relationship that shined perfectly for them.

Bodyguard Romance
This was an entertaining read.
I liked the characters (especially Jewels) but I think I wanted the romance to be developed a bit more. It just seemed rushed.
I liked the action and the suspense/thriller aspect of the story.
Bravo Team series is a good time and I’m looking forward to the next one about Blue.

Jewels likes adventure. Apollo has been in love with Jewels since her brothers wedding but he feels he is not good enough for her When Jewels see an execution the first place she goes is to her brother and the security team he works for. Apollo offers to protect her when they find out more of the secrets Jewels has been hiding.

I could not put this book down. Loved the storyline and Owen and Jewels, the story was fast paced and clever. The moments of doubt Owen had and Jewels no nonsense attitude. Can’t wait for the next one!

What a wonderful book! Owen and Jewels are an amazing couple. Jewels never backs down. She is unapologetically in your face. Owen is super alpha. The writing is wonderful and I was so engrossed in the storyline. I very much enjoyed this book.
