I had one intoxicating night with a chiseled bad boy… then found out he’s my new off-limits bodyguard

Christian Benson: Charming. Ex-Navy SEAL. Billionaire. Playboy.

A flirty bet with him at a bar leads us to a night with uninhibited passion that drives him to work me like I’m his most important mission.

And I’m in ecstasy until I wake up and realize he left in the middle of the night without even a note.

The next day, I’m shocked to learn that he’s my new bodyguard, tasked with protecting me 24/7 from my ex, who’s been stalking me.

Then, Christian goes from warm and charming to cold and distant.

Until some drinks and a game of truth or dare have us diving into forbidden territory.
His touch sends a burning pleasure down my core.

And as we spend time together, I see a caring side to him.

But now, things are complicated — I’m carrying his baby.

Our bond and connection is undeniable.
But this can’t work.

Christian has plans for his security business, and I need to focus on writing my children's books.

And opening up my heart was not part of this temporary assignment.

Or will Christian realize he wants to be my forever protector?

Too bad they used virtual AI to recite the story. There is a lack of inflection, times when the names or words are mis-pronounced and it is almost impossible to tell when the characters switch.

Decent story line: Poor recitation

I have listened to several books now with virtual voice. I don't enjoy the stories as much because there is no inflection, change in volume or change in timing in the voice. I will avoid these books in the future.

I am not a fan of virtual voice.

Virtual voice ruined the story. As usual, it was difficult to keep the characters straight. Never dismiss the necessity of great narrators!

It could have been a good book.

This is a wonderful book and reminds me that we should always say how we feel about the other person no matter what. Words left unspoken can lead to misunderstanding and sometimes heartaches.
