Guarding Hearts
Author LL Collins
Released May 23, 2014
Ellis Warner is a police officer, everyone’s friend and every girl’s fantasy- funny, dedicated, and too good looking for his own good. Thanks to a childhood he would rather forget and a young adulthood riddled with mistakes, he knows that no one can ever find out who he really is. He lives his life pretending to be the guy everyone sees on the outside. The one thing he knows for sure is that he can’t be serious with anyone. When he takes a second job as security for a new country star coming into town, he has no idea how that one decision will change his entire life and expose everything he has worked so hard to bury.
Samantha Kerrigan won a nationwide contest that immediately forces her into the spotlight. Her dreams of being a successful country singer have come true, but dreams always come with a price. While going out on her first tour, a stalker’s advances threaten her safety, forcing her team to hire more protection.
The second she meets Ellis, she knows there’s something about him and immediately makes him her private bodyguard. But he’s determined just to do his job, and she’s determined to make him open up. When her life is threatened and his secrets are exposed, will Ellis be able to guard Sam from danger, and his heart from her?
Review by Darcey Pickett
Engaging,
thrilling, sexy and fun…
Samantha
Kerrigan in thrust into the spotlight as all her dreams of becoming a country
comes true. But nothing comes without a
price. She is a beautiful young talent,
who ends up needing the protection of Ellis.
Ellis
Warner, wow, what is hotter than a police man and one with a heart of gold as
well. Life for Ellis was never easy; he
lives with a secret and tries to maintain an image. He is brought into Samantha’s life as her
body guard, a job he takes seriously, but Samantha has a way about her and she
is determined to find out who the real Ellis truly is.
This
emotional roller coaster we are riding with the characters was thrilling; I
found myself complete “in” this story and never knew what was going to happened
next. Guarding Hearts is part of the
Living Again series, you could read it as a stand-alone, but this book along
with Living Again and Reaching Rachel are bound to be some of the best reading
you have ever done!
Ms. Collins has proven
herself again with this incredible story, mystery, intrigue, engaging
characters and of course our much needed happy ending. This book had me from page one and certainly
kept me up well past my bed time. She
from her very first book of Living Again has made me a fan for life. Ms. Collins, whatever you do, for the sake of
your fans - keep on writing.
