Ex-bodyguard and moody Irishman Colin Daly needs three things:

  • To figure out how to have a real job after his longtime client no longer needs him.
  • To find some really good Irish whiskey in the land of homemade moonshine.
  • To stop having dirty dreams every time he hears young, beautiful, recently-discovered-thanks-to-social-media music sensation, Hayden Ross, sing. Which seems to be every time he freaking turns around lately.

But now, the new-to-the-spotlight sweetheart is being harassed, and needs someone to have her back. And Colin will be damned if he’s going to let anyone else take this job. No matter how much being her temporary, very protective pretend boyfriend/roommate/whatever is going to rock his world.

Rocked Bayou is definitely one of my favorite books by Erin Nicholas, and hearing the characters brought to life by Connor and Angelina really elevated the story to the next level!

Hayden Ross comes around Autre looking for help from her friend Henry after a close call with a stalker. Things are hitting too close to home and she knows that she can trust her friend with her life. However, when she shows up at his house, she has a run in, literally, with the brickhouse that is Colin Daly.

The attraction between these two was intstant, but Colin knows that he needs to do his absolute best to stay away from the curvy beauty that is a few years younger than him AND a potential client. But of course that is always easier said than done.

This book was so enjoyable from start to finish! It's full of family, good friends, a town full of meddling people that just want to see everyone live their dreams, and plenty of chemistry and steam to keep you listening straight through.

Well done!

Colin and Hayden were definitely my favorite of this series. Colin has the swoony accent, obviously, but also cooks? Yeah, I’m already won over. Overprotective isn’t usually my jam, but when there is actually danger present, I am here for it. I loved how Colin didn’t hold back. Sure, he tried to stay professional for a time, but when he gave that up, he was all in. Hayden was amazing as well. She was protective and caring, while also being sweet and fierce at times. And not just with Colin, but with everyone. I also liked that there was a bit of suspense. It kept me frantically turning pages until the end.

After helping support her siblings reach their career goals Hayden’s dream of singing professionally is within her reach. The only problem is that she has attracted the attention of the wrong person and Colin has decided to handle her protection personally.

Colin has spent the last decade providing security for Fiona, a princess and her daughter, however they became more like family, and they still remain friends. When he meets Hayden, he knows that protecting her will help the business professionally, but it isn’t long before he can’t imagine a future without her in it.

Hot chemistry, a heartwarming romance and a little intrigue as Colin and Hayden realize that when it comes to their dreams for the future the only thing that really matters is each other. The characters draw you in and there is a great cast of secondary characters that leave you wanting more of this series. The narrators did a wonderful job at bringing out the personalities of the characters and their story.

Hayden and Colin!

Rocked Bayou was full of the small town charm, delightful characters, intense chemistry and heartstopping emotions with a dash of suspense that I’ve come to expect from this author. I’ve been anxiously awaiting Colin’s story and he was worth the wait. Colin and Hayden were absolutely adorable and their story had so much heart.

Hayden was pure sunshine. After being content to be on the sidelines in her family for her entire life, she’s finally stepping into the spotlight with her own career, but she’s drawn the attention of a stalker so she needs the help of Colin’s security agency to keep her safe. I loved Hayden and how she wasn’t afraid to speak her truth. She made herself vulnerable time and time again and wore her heart on her sleeve. She brought joy into everyone’s life, but she still felt that she wasn’t enough. Colin and her new friends help her realize what is truly important in her life.

Colin was protective and growly and just yum. I absolutely loved Colin’s heart. He would go to any lengths to protect those he loves and nothing will get in his way. He’s possessive yet so tender and caring. We get some insight into how he’s feeling now that he’s no longer guarding Saoirse and it’s heartbreaking. He had essentially been her father and now he’s struggling with not being in her everyday life.

Both Colin and Hayden are caretakers. They like to make sure that their people are provided for and taken care of in any way that they can and are so perfectly matched. They understand one another and their blossoming relationship was so much fun to watch. The banter and chemistry that they had was electric and I loved how they supported one another.

I also listened to the audio of this title and it was FIRE!! Connor Crais is perfection as Colin. His accent is yummy and he does the growly protector character so, so well. Angelina Rocca narrates Hayden and I loved her. She really brings all of the emotions that Hayden feels to life. This is a duet narration which I absolutely love and I fell in love with this book all over again while listening to it.

Full of humor, heat, and so much heart with a bit of angst, Rocked Bayou is another great addition to this series. We get another fantastic couple in Hayden and Colin and get to revisit the Landrys and all their craziness once again. I’m so excited to see what’s in store for our favorite bodyguards and Royals next.

I loved, loved Colin and Hayden’s bodyguard fake relationship romance with a side of light danger from a stalker. This heartwarming steamy tale will give you all the swoony swoons while also pulling at your heartstrings with all the emotions. The book and this couple are my favorite in this series. The story drew me in from the very first sentence. It was definitely a stay up too late, cannot put it down, it should get more than 5 stars kind of book. Colin has spent his life guarding the young princess of a small country. Now at loose ends, he is looking for a similar high profile client for his new security firm. Hayden is a music therapist who is on the cusp of getting a solo music contract but in the process, she has picked up a stalker. As Colin and his friends begin to guard Hayden, their feelings for each other explode and quickly deepen to far more than simple attraction. Colin is a caretaker and a protector and being in love with Hayden only ramps that up. “He wanted to wrap her up and take care of her while cheering her on.” The journey to their HEA included sweet moments, steamy scenes, snort worthy laughs, supportive friends, messy families, a quirky town, light danger, Ellie advice, and all heart squeezing love. As always Erin Nicholas makes a romcom so much deeper than simply laughs and she got us there with witty dialogue, three dimensional characters who grow, and an engaging storyline. I need the rest of the Badges series but I’m here for the series about the Royals too.

Connor Crais and Angelia Rocca did a phenomenal job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.

Colin and Hayden- heartwarming and steamy
