About this deal

In a dangerous world, everyone needs protection. No one suspects that a teenager could protect someone – but Connor Reeves is no ordinary 14 year old. He’s a professional bodyguard trained in surveillance, anti-ambush techniques, hostage survival and unarmed combat. When he’s summoned to protect the President’s daughter, his protection skills face the ultimate test. Job requirements [ edit ] The bodyguard of Sheik Abdul Sattar Abu Risha, who was killed by an IED in the assassination of the Sheik in 2007 The premise of “The Bodyguard” is totally up my alley: it’s a famous/non-famous fake-dating romance about a woman who becomes a bodyguard to an A-list actor. But many of the elements that I assumed would make this book a stand out for me didn’t work, mainly because the author insists on gesturing toward tropes without committing to them. If there’s Only One Bed, it’s understandable for a reader to expect the characters to have to share that bed (spoiler: they do not! not once! she sleeps on the floor! the whole time!). The Fake Dating trope raises the “Are These Feelings Real or Just Pretend?” issue, but Center doesn’t commit to that either. Instead, the emphasis is on the protagonist’s self-esteem, and whether or not she’s attractive enough to be seen with an A-lister. It’s all very 2000s––the idea that the protagonist is so “ordinary-looking,” and yet somehow “not like the other girls” goes unchallenged, as does the author’s portrayal of the “villain,” a shallow and painfully generic mean girl. Have we not evolved beyond this type of characterization? I loved the political angle to this romance where we have a woman senator running for the top office. The best bodyguard is the one nobody notices. Teenage martial arts expert Connor Reeves isn't your typical bodyguard - that's why he's so good at his job.

The military forces in many countries offer close protection training for the members of their own armed forces who have been selected to work as bodyguards to officers or heads of state (e.g., the British RMP – Royal Military Police, Close Protection Unit). In the private sector, there are a vast number of private bodyguard training companies, which offer training in all aspects of close protection relative to their local laws and threat level, including the legal aspects of physical protection (e.g., use of force, use of deadly force), how to escort clients, driving drills, searching facilities and vehicles, etc. Martial arts expert Connor Reeves isn’t your typical bodyguard–in fact, he looks like a regular kid. He blends in with the crowd. That’s why he’s so good at his job.now, i’m about to spoil the plot and jake’s stalker so don’t continue reading if you don’t wanna know. then again, if you’re at this point of the review, would you even want to read this?? But nothing can prepare Connor for his first assignment when the US president summons him to protect the First Daughter. For not even the Secret Service knows that a terrorist sleeper cell has been activated in America. Its mission: to take the president’s daughter hostage. She was supposed to keep him safe, and satisfied when necessary, but now he’s realizing he may never be able to get enough of her.

This book list has everything you could want when it comes to finding the best bodyguard romance books worth reading.Accepting the job of bodyguard to Camille Logan isn’t the kind of distraction from his demons he should take. But Jake soon discovers that she isn’t the woman she’s perceived to be. Twenty-seven-year-old Farrow Keene has one job: protect Maximoff Hale. But when feelings surface, protecting the hot, stubborn celebrity becomes increasingly complicated.

But when her brother abdicates, she’s suddenly faced with the prospect of a loveless, politically expedient marriage and a throne she never wanted. I always pass, but then he ambushes me with a damsel in distress. That damsel is Alex, the competitive, sassy girl I knew when we were kids. Now she’s a drop-dead gorgeous woman in deep trouble. But, despite these givens, this is a “breath of fresh air” story, that will have you smiling, laughing and maybe even tearing up, a time or two!So, guess who’s on a flight to Hawaii? It’s going to be a long week in paradise. My job is keeping Alex safe, while her job is torturing me with her tiny bikinis. Or maybe we’re torturing each other. This book has received so much praise that I went in with very high expectations (I should really stop doing that), only to be disappointed. A buddy read with DeAnn and Marilyn-we had fun casting the parts for our leading lady and leading man! It sort of goes with the territory that a bodyguard exhibits alpha male traits. He’s observant, physically fit, and focused – all characteristics that I’d gladly welcome in a book boyfriend. Forbidden Romance
