Description

"Every kiss, every sexy scene, every word between this pair owned a piece of my soul. I could read this book a hundred times and still react as if it was the first time. The Protector is a top 2016 fave for me." -- Audrey Carlan, #1 bestselling author of The Calendar Girl series

Jake Sharp resides in his own personal hell. The ex-SAS sniper was distracted from duty once before, and the consequences were devastating--both personally and professionally. He vowed never to let that happen again The job of bodyguard to Camille Logan isn't the kind of distraction from his demons he should take. Women and Jake don't mix well, yet the lesser of two evils seems to be protecting the heiress, whose life is threatened as a result of her father's ruthless business dealings.

He thinks he knows her type: beautiful and spoiled, with her father's bank balance to fund her lifestyle. But he soon discovers the real Camille--warm, compassionate, determined to be independent and happy after struggling with past mistakes. Now, his duty to protect her turns into something deeper than a well-paid job, no matter how hard he fights it. He needs absolution. He comes to need Camille. But he knows he can't have both.

For fans of Maya Banks, The Protector delivers the all-consuming romance and devastating alpha hero that make a Jodi Ellen Malpas novel an irresistible, passionate read.

    I don’t love the authors writing style as much. A lot of the writing seems too made up, not much a person can relate to and feel like the story could be someone’s reality. It was hard for me to complete, I did it, but struggled.
  • Great book!

    JEM is a magnificent writer. Her books will have you feeling all the feels. This book is certainly no exception. I’m glad it was a stand alone book this time, because This Man series just about did me in. Well worth the read.
  • Great ending!

    This is the worst book ever. They literally ‘fall in love’ after 72 hours of meeting each other for no apparent reason other than looks. the main character personalities suckkkkk. The guys calls her ‘angel’ so many times it’s embarrassing. Only reason I finished the book is because I paid 10.99 for it. If you like Jodi’s other series (This Man), and are hoping for something similar, this is nothing like it. Poorly written. Don’t waste your time.
  • Sooooo good!

    I could not put this book down! Jake and Cami were everything and more. I didn’t want it to end, but the ending was amazing.
