Jason "Jax" Wilder is a former major league baseball player
who is now partnered with his best friend, Chase Dixon in a
body guarding agency. When his next client walks in the
door he is ready for action in more ways then one...he is
about to be GUARDING HIS HEART.
Cassidy Dixon hadn't wanted to take her problem to the
police and certainly not her brother, but she feels she can
trust Jax to check into things for her. She has after all
loved and hated the man for as long as she can remember, and
after contacting him, she is sure she is back to hating him.
As soon as Cass mentions a stalker, Jax is ready to do
whatever he has to, and if that means bossing her around to
the point of taking over her life...so be it. He is in for
a big surprise because Cass isn't about to let him have
complete control...not in her daily life. He doesn't feel
at all guilty about finding himself in her bed, it is after
all where he belongs, and soon he will prove just that to
Cass and her over-protective brother. If neither of them or
the stalker kills him first.
GUARDING HIS HEART is the intriguing second book of author
Cari Quinn's Deuces Wild series. I would suggest that
the reader might want to read the first book because there
is some background that is not explained entirely. For
example, it is assumed the reader already knows that there
was a split between Chase and Jax and why...which is not
covered in this book but does have some play in Cass's
feelings toward Jax. That said this is a steamy stand-alone
with some very funny moments and a number of twists right up
to the surprise stalker. Watching the heat develop between
Cass and Jax was a slow roll, but when it exploded, it
nearly burned the words off the pages. I especially loved
both Jax and Cass's reaction to finding out their parents
(his mother and her father) are "dating." So funny! I will
admit I am looking forward to the next book because Ms.
Quinn left the third member of the Deuces Wild team,
Sterling, chasing after a mystery woman, and I would love to
know that story.
To protect her, he’ll have to cover the bases—first, second,
third, and all the way home.
Deuces Wild, Book 2
Cassidy Dixon isn’t about to let her overprotective big
brother know she has a stalker problem. But when she turns
to his bodyguard agency partner, former MLB player Jax
Wilder, she realizes she’s made an even bigger mistake.
Jax is even more overbearing, and soon he’s getting too
close for comfort—as in panty-melting close. Heat is the
last thing she needs in her under-siege ice cream shop—until
hot tempers explode into the best angry sex of her life.
For once, the last thing on Jax’s morning-after mind is
escape. He’s wanted Chase’s little sister too long not to
make a move when opportunity strikes. He knows the reasons
why she lives a careful life, and he’s ready to be the man
she needs. If only she’d stop trying to get away…
Certain Jax feels guilty for sampling forbidden,
way-too-sheltered fruit, Cassidy sets out to prove that
she’s not as innocent and inexperienced as he thinks. She
never expected him to rise to the challenge…or to be ready
to risk everything to keep her safe.
Warning: Contains an overworked bodyguard who is juggling a
stalker and a woman desperate to unleash her wilder side.
This hero knows how to ride…to the rescue and a motorcycle,
among other things. Beware of curve balls and acts of
spontaneous outdoor sex.
