Romance

Chuck Bolton is returning to Wild Oak Canyon, a small town near the Mexican border, after spending a year in Afghanistan. He's just joined Hank Derringer's Covert Cowboys, Inc. and now learns that his first assignment is his ex-fiancé PJ Franks. PJ broke the engagement off when Chuck insisted on enlisting to serve his country. He also discovers that PJ's three month old daughter is his child.

Someone is after PJ, and Chuck is trying to protect her and their child and find the culprit. PJ is attacked, her apartment is broken into twice, she receives a threatening text message and a very mysterious voice comes over her baby monitor asking "Who's your daddy?" PJ also learns some disturbing facts about her birth mother and her history with Hank. Who is after PJ, and what do they want? Can Chuck protect her and deal with all the questions he has about their previous relationship and his child? Will PJ let Chuck back into her life?

BODYGUARD UNDER FIRE is a fast-paced story about developing trust, mending bridges and rebuilding relationships. Chuck and PJ's characters are strong-willed and passionate. The supporting characters are true-to-life with a couple of techno-gurus and some cyber espionage to add just the right amount of flavor to the story. Throw in the Mexican Mafia and you have an exciting mix that is sure to captivate and intrigue you.

BODYGUARD UNDER FIRE is filled with riveting suspense and some sizzling romance. Elle James gives us another great read in her Covert Cowboy Series. I've read several of these books, and this one certainly measures up with the rest. It's a quick read that will not disappoint you. Add BODYGUARD UNDER FIRE to your list.

SUMMARY

A Special Forces soldier meets the baby girl he never knew existed in this book in Elle James's Covert Cowboys, Inc. series.

In a small town in Texas, everyone has a secret. Especially Chuck Bolton. Formerly a Special Forces soldier, Chuck now poses as a ranch handyman. His real mission? To protect his ex-fiancée, and the baby girl he never knew they'd created, from a malevolent masked man.

Who is behind the attack—and what could they possibly want with Peggy Jane ("PJ") Franks? While the answer remains unclear, one thing is certain: Chuck never stopped loving PJ after she left him. And PJ, afraid of falling for the same man who broke her heart, doesn't want to repeat history. But that's the least of her worries when her enemy's motive is finally revealed.
