What if the woman you loved was the one person you could never be with? Elizabeth Grayson doesn't want a bodyguard. She's worked hard for her normal life, but her father, the founder of a booming seafood empire, is a prime target for his unethical competitors. When her father hires a bodyguard for Elizabeth, she's less than enthusiastic...that is, until she meets the mysterious Layne O'Connell. Sarcastic, charming, and secretive, Layne is hired to keep Elizabeth safe. But protecting her heart wasn't in the job description. Elizabeth's father has been keeping secrets from her, and she's soon going to find out that her family is stranger than she could ever have imagined: she's descended from vampires. When Layne reveals her true nature, Elizabeth's world is thrown upside down. Because Elizabeth has fallen for the one person she can't be with: the brooding werewolf who was charged with keeping her alive. Part heart-pounding mystery, part epic romance, the novel The Protector will leave you spellbound.

I loved a Knight to Remember so I was.excited to see another Bridget Essex book. the plot was good enough to keep me wanting to know what's going on but the pacing was off a bit. I found myself getting impatient or thinking you've described that 10 times already.. Elizabeth's inner monologue dragged on and the rest zipped by like a roller coaster. Maybe next time more dialogue to help develop the other characters a bit. Overall good but not the can't put it down feel of Knight to Remember.

Good but slow

I agree with one of the other reviewers who commented about the MC’s endless running inner dialogue. Who stops to describe a house’s furnishings in the middle of a tense fight scene???
The MC worked my last nerve with her constant “someone just tell me what’s going on” pleas. I hit the fast forward button more times than I can count to wade through the repetitive dialogue. The author comes up with great stories and it’s a shame she can’t let the action move along at a better pace.

Just okay

Nice romance with plenty of suspense and battles of good vs evil. But this novel should lose a fifth of the words possibly a quarter. Too many details are repeated, feelings and thoughts are told repeatedly in the same paragraph. The narration is excellent, five stars

Needed editing

The store was good if you like the whole " star-across lovers " mix with the fancy and thrill that Bridget Essex puts in her books. Stephanie Murphy was great made every detail visible and easy to follow over all a good story

Okay Story Narrator Helps A lot

Any additional comments?

Can Bridget Essex get a better editor? She really needs to cut down on the inner dialogue and stop trying to use 15 adjectives per sentence. I had the same issue with her knights series. Learn to cut back on description and make the stories more fast paced.

Too long
