Caught between duty and desire, which will I choose? I promised her father I'd keep her safe, and she is safe, safe from everyone except me.

I normally don't leave reviews, but with the short summary description, I thought I should share. The summary description pretty much accurately depicted the book. However, it failed to mention the girl was 18 and in college. The bodyguard was 25. The book basically followed the thoughts of an 18 year old virgin and 25 year old bodyguard living together and lusting after each other for about 7 and a half hours. They finally gave into temptation and there was about an hour of them living in sexual bliss. Then for about the last hour, there was a twist. Then the HEA. I feel like it was drawn out. It felt like it took forever to get through and I normally finish books in one day. This book took about 4 days to finish. Although, that could be because I just wasn't into it after realizing what it was about. I kept hoping something would pick up or garner some sort of interest, sadly, it didn't.

This was a great book. I enjoyed listening to Thom’s reading. His voice is soothing. He has a relaxing voice that can ease you.

Good book

Out of all the free audio books I've come across this one HAS TO BE MY FAVORITE! It was beautifully written and the plot was insane. I finished it in 3-4 days cause I just had to know what was gonna happen next. Yes its your normal girl/bodyguard romance with loads of spice, but I was so different. The plot had so many twists and turns and I wish there was a book about Zeke before he found MIa. BUT I loved this one overall. Thank you to the author for creating one of the best Mafia Romances I have read yet AND huge shout out to Heather and Tor for bringing these characters to life

AMAZING

Zeke was a killer who murdered for the mob boss Dad on demand. Of course the FL (Mira) was a younger, college girl and the cliche virgin who had No Clue that her father was involved in organized crime to fund his lavish lifestyle. Seriously? She didn’t question his profession or the source of his wealth at all? If she had always lived in the lap of luxury, then one might forgive her lack of inquisitiveness. However before her Mom passed, they were living hand to mouth.
The fact that Zeke and Mira were thrown together alone in an apartment and Zeke’s life depended on him keeping her safe, would not be the idea of a careful and calculating Mafia Daddy. Inevitably Zeke started thinking with his dick just as one would expect in this setup. This was far fetched because her dad would have sent an entourage, not a single man in her age group.
Narrators were great, though making it tolerable.
The fact that Mira embraced the family business was a surprise to me. Why would anyone choose to go

ML Was A Bad Guy, Sex & Possessiveness Didn’t Change That

I was hesitant starting this book since I read mixed reviews about it. But, I am so glad I did because it was absolutely amazing!!! The sexual tension was so hotttt! I literally kept internally screaming at them to just go at it 😂😂 Highly Recommend!!!!

So in the beginning I was disappointed to find out that the FMC was 18 and a college freshman. I’m putting that out there bc it’s not listed anywhere else! The MMC is her bodyguard. I won’t lie, I skipped a lot of chapters bc I’m not all that interested in the life of 18 year old college girls. I kept hoping it would jump ahead a few years (it doesn’t).

That being said, after skipping several chapters it got interesting and there was definitely some action (outside of the sexy scenes which were well done!) that was pretty good.

Pretty good

have to admit I'm not a big fan of listening to teenage stories but glad I gave this one a go. It had a little bit of everything in it, angst, drama. suspense, love and HEA. Always enjoy Heather and Thor's narration too, it is one of the reasons I decided to listen to it because I knew they would bring excitement to the storyline. The storyline was good enough to keep me interested and want to thank the author for doing such a good job with the characters.

The story kept me guessing… I know I shouldn’t love a hitman but he is lovable. Mia was written to be very immature in the beginning, younger than her 18yrs but the story and her character evolved nicely.

There was an issue with editing at the end of chapter 17 but it didn’t seem to affect the story.
Overall, a definite 5 star from me.

I loved it.

It was a fairly good story but the male mc was the least threatening male mc in this genre I’ve ever heard and the female mc was inconsistent one second naive the next not so much and I was constantly guessing how dumb two people could be
