Jake Sharp resides in his own personal hell. The ex-SAS sniper was distracted from duty once before, and the consequences were devastating - both personally and professionally. He vowed never to let that happen again.

The job of bodyguard to Camille Logan isn't the kind of distraction from his demons he should take. Women and Jake don't mix well, yet the lesser of two evils seems to be protecting the heiress, whose life is threatened as a result of her father's ruthless business dealings.

He thinks he knows her type: Beautiful and spoiled, with her father's bank balance to fund her lifestyle. But he soon discovers the real Camille - warm, compassionate, determined to be independent and happy after struggling with past mistakes. Now, his duty to protect her turns into something deeper than a well-paid job, no matter how hard he fights it. He needs absolution. He comes to need Camille. But he knows he can't have both.

For fans of Maya Banks, The Protector delivers the all-consuming romance and devastating alpha hero that make a Jodi Ellen Malpas novel an irresistible, passionate listen.

I loved the story for the most part. I had trouble understanding the Male narrator the first half of the book. His accent really thick. I remember most of it from the movie. Then in one of the later chapters about 1/2 through it the chapter started all over again.

Good Audio

I love Ms Malpas her trilogy's are amazing fun intriguing winding stories from start to finish! I was a bit worried that this would be less because it was a single offering this go around but was so so happy to be wrong. As with the trilogy's this was a strong story from start to finish so much so I didn't want it to end😢 Please keep writing with all the joy your pen can hold! N of course thank you for giving us all a perfect escape🤗

Victory of the human spirit!

🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻V from Kansas 🌻🌻🌻🌻

When I read the summary, I expected the usual brooding anti-hero who treats the heroine terribly but, she falls in love anyway. This book was not like that, at all.

The Hero suffers from PTSD and is emotionally scarred by circumstances of his past but, he is in constant emotional growth and he quickly becomes the man he is meant, to be.

I enjoyed the more romantic intimate scenes and the author does a great job of helping the reader/listener experience the emotions along with the characters.

There is only a little bit of angst and it is resolved, quickly.

There are some violent scenes but, they aren’t overly descriptive.

This is a great listen for someone who prefers to cry happy tears!

🌻More romantic then I expected 🌻

I've listened to the the other books by the author work mixed feelings... Liked the One Night series, didn't really care for the others so I was really unsure about purchasing this one but I'm glad I did. Really good story!
