I’m target number one for the bullies on the football team. I wrote an article in the school paper daring to say that some of the athletic funds should be spread around instead of every dollar going to them.

But this is Texas. And this town is football Mecca.

I should have known better. They’ve been making my life a living hell. Teasing me, calling me names, spray-painting my locker. I need protection.

I need a beast. So, that’s exactly what I get. Elijah "The Beast" Stoll. Former football player, former school god, Jacksland town legend. He’s my cousin’s best friend and it’s time to pull in a favor. Maybe if he picks me up after school and I’m seen with him, they’ll lay off me a bit.

It’s a pretty good plan. But what I don’t take into account is how protective the beast is. And how utterly obsessed he becomes with me.

The football team is screwed. And if I’m lucky, I will be too. In the good way, of course ;)

The Beast is one possessive alpha who’s ready to protect his girl from the school bullies no matter what it takes. Mess with his girl at your own risk. Just make sure you have health insurance first.

Insta-love at its finest in a safe listen with no cheating and a super sweet HEA guaranteed. Enjoy!

Protective Beast was a great novel! Ali is being bullied by not only the football team but the most of the school, when she goes to see if her cousin could help, her cousin is not there, but she runs into her childhood crush Elijah (the Beast). Elijah falls instantly in love with Ali when he see her. The story quickly progresses and wraps up nicely. I can't wait to listen to another novel by Olivia T Turner!.

These characters weren't married within 72 hours, but it wasn't even 15 minutes before he was in love with her, so maybe that's a record. This is a seriously over the top, quick read, well-written romance which somehow manages to work despite being SO fast. The narration was also great.

This was such a great audio book! I haven’t read this particular series but I know anything written by Olivia is gold! I jumped on the chance with this one as soon as I got the notification. I loved this one just as much as all her others, the characters in this one came together perfectly and I loved how he jumped at the chance to protect her and stand up for her right away. This was a perfect insta-love romance and I can’t wait to read/hear more in this particular series. Great work!

Amazing story!

This is a fun story about one very "Protective Beast" who do anything it takes protect what is his. It is a sweet and steamy over the top read/listen that is fairly short and quick. The story is about Ali and Elijah. She is a gymnast who is not happy about little they get versus the football players. She writes a letter that ends up getting published. Now she is getting bullied for it. This is where her crush, Elijah, steps in to help her. She is now legal and all his. This is a swoon worthy read. I actually listened to the story and thought the narrators did a good job bringing the story to life.

Ali gets bullied at school after writing a not so nice piece about the highschools football team. Now she needs help from her cousin Collin. But it's not Collin that opens the door.... It's Elijah a former golden boy and football star. She always had a crush on him and now as they meet again as adults sparks fly😉 Elijah is instantly obsessed and protective of Ali and boy is he making the bullies pay 🤣 Instalove, sweet, romantic, steamy🥵 and totally safe(for me it was Double virgins 😉) with a great HEA and no drama 😍😍😍😍

Great audiobook, dual narration that makes fun to listen to the story.

I read a lot of mountain man romances by Olivia T. Turner. This premise was something I wanted to read/listen to as soon as I read it. I liked the concept of the story. I don't know how seriously it was meant to be taken, but it definitely was over-the-top and made me laugh at times.

Ali noticed that all the funding was going towards the football team, and everyone else's equipment was worn and desintegrating. She submitted an article in the school paper suggesting the funds be allocated more fairly and now the football team is harassing her and making her miserable. She goes to her cousin for help and finds his friend instead, whom she's had a cruch on. Elijah takes one look at her, decides she's his and he's obsessed, and is immediately willing to hunt down and take out the whole team. He agrees to pick her up from school and be seen together where the team will see them together and leave her alone out of respect for him as a famous and skilled ex-football player.

It just felt like an over-the-top, macho-man stepping in to save his girl from anyone who even thinks of her in the wrong way. The way he was taking the guys down was amusing though a bit much. The chemistry between the Ali and Elijah was immediate.

I listened to this audiobook narrated by Vivienne LaRue and Noel Harrison. Noel has a wonderful, deep voice and suited the Beast perfectly. Vivienne was a good match for Ali.

Overall: 4 stars
Performance: 4.5 stars
Story: 4 stars

This story definitely lives up to the name. Aly is a Senior in highschool that is getting bullied because of an article. She enlists the help of her cousin's nest friend to help her fend off her bullies. During this time they happen to fall in love. I found such humor in how he teaches the bullies a lesson in what happens when they disrespect the Beast's girl.

was such a great book! I mean, of course it was, OTT just doesn't disappoint. Elijah and Allie were perfect. LaRue & Harrison were wonderful in their narration. They captured the personalities of the characters (as I perceived them) and enabled me to be fully drawn into Elijah & Allie's world. Thank you for the escape.

I received an ARC and hope this voluntary review helps in your search for your next title.

Ali is the not only the need in school but the picked up nerd for no reason what so ever...I should know I was her. She goes to her cousin's house for help and who does she find - Elijah, football god of her high school.

Elijah sees Ali and everything outside of her goes black. He has found his forever and he will hurt anyone that thinks he has he right to hurt her. She tries to beg off and but he finally get s out why she was there. And so starts the love of "The One".

As always, Ms. Turner makes the protective instinct of a man beautiful...She has a protector and he has the love he didn't know he needed and one she graduates he will have her all to himself.

The voices are perfect. I knew they would be because Vivienne LaRue, and Noel Harrison makes you listen...not by force but by sheer hypnotics.

25 years later, they are still as much in love as the day he...well you gotta read to find out!!!!!
