NEVER BEEN KISSED is the second book in the Boys of
Bishop
series but you can definitely read it as a stand alone as
well.
All Ashley Montgomery wanted was to get away from her
political family and her family name. She wanted to go
overseas to use her money and resources to help those in
need. What she didn't want was to be captured by Somali
pirates with her friend. She really doesn't want the one
man that turned her down years ago to come to her rescue.
Brody Baxter has always worked as security for politicians.
It's what he does best. He never in a million years thought
that an old employer would be coming to him for a favor.
Especially one involving Ashley Montgomery. He used to work
for her father years before but when an incident involving
Ashley got him fired he though that he would never see the
family again.
When Brody decides to give Ashley a place to hide from the
public eye he thought he would just drop her off and stay
maybe a day or two. Soon these two are thrown together and
the old feelings start to awaken. Can Brody walk away from
this sweet girl a second time or will the circumstances
make Brody see what he has been missing all these years.
NEVER BEEN KISSED is a great book!! It will hook you from
page one.
Ashley and Brody are perfect together. Ashley is the sweet
next door type and Brody is the brooding hero. The
chemistry between all the characters is spot on. I fell in
love with the side story between Sean and Cora. Cora is a
strong and independent woman who never relies on anyone. To
watch her start opening up and start showing her feelings
is such a sweet story. I can't wait to see what Molly
O'Keefe has in store for us next!
SUMMARY
Perfect for readers of Susan Elizabeth Phillips and Rachel
Gibson, Molly O’Keefe’s second novel in her exciting new
series—The Boys of Bishop—features an irresistible romance
and unforgettable characters in a page-turning story that
delivers equal parts emotion and humor . . . with a little
edge to boot. As the daughter of a wealthy politician, Ashley Montgomery
has had enough of her parents’ expectations for her future
and is going her own way, volunteering to work at a refugee
camp in Africa. But her act of charity turns dangerous when
she takes a boat trip and is abducted by Somali pirates.
Enter Brody Baxter, who was a bodyguard for the Montgomery
family ten years ago and doesn’t think twice about coming to
Ashley’s rescue. Handsome and tough, Brody has always done
what needed to be done. So he swoops in, saves Ashley, and
brings her to a place where she can rest and recuperate
without the glare of the press and her demanding family:
Brody’s small hometown of Bishop, Arkansas. But Ashley soon
realizes that she’s not the only one in need of healing. Holed up with Ashley in a tiny apartment over his brother’s
bar in Bishop, Brody is tempted and torn in ways he never
anticipated. Beautiful Ashley, vibrant despite her ordeal,
fearless enough to love him beyond his wall of self-
punishment, is now determined to save him. But with a little
faith and a lot of love, they just may find happiness in
each others’ arms.
