New Release & #Review ~ The Bodyguard and the Bombshell by Lexi Blake ~ @authorlexiblake



The Bodyguard and the Bombshell by Lexi Blake is now live!

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lexi Blake comes a new story in her Masters and Mercenaries series…

About the Book:

The Bodyguard…

Nate Carter left Australia’s elite SASR unit after a tragic accident. Shattered by the experience, he thought taking a job in the States might be a good way to start over. His father’s former employer, McKay-Taggart, has a position for him in the bodyguard unit. He never imagined himself risking his life for celebrities and the wealthy, but it will do for now. It will also give him a chance to reconnect with old friends, including the girl who’d been like a little sis to him ten years before.

These days, however, his feelings for Daisy O’Donnell are anything but brotherly.

The Bombshell…

Daisy O’Donnell is a girl on a mission, and it does not include falling for one of her brother’s best friends. She has plans, and while chaos always seems to follow her, she’s determined to see this through. Daisy finds herself in need of a bodyguard when a job goes terribly wrong. She’s sure her dad will find someone suitable, but she didn’t expect a big, gloriously masculine Aussie to show up ready to take a bullet for her. Maybe spending some time with Nate Carter won’t be so bad after all.

An explosive match…

Thrown together by danger, Nate and Daisy can’t resist the insane chemistry between them. But when his past and her present collide, they must decide if they can hold it together or go their separate ways forever.

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

My Review:

The Bodyguard and the Bombshell is my first experience with Lexi Blake and the Masters & Mercenaries series. This book will not be my last. I love the author's writing style, the character development, and the pure excitement I could feel leap off the pages. Of course, there are complications and drama but so much love and fun and quirkiness round out the book nicely. 

Nate and Daisy are wonderful characters. Daisy's need for a bodyguard stems from a client interaction that results in her becoming a material witness. Nate comes to the states to become a bodyguard, surprised when he gets a position watching over an old friend. Their chemistry is powerful and undeniable. 

I can't wait to get my hands on more books by Lexi Blake.

I was provided a copy of this book.
