HER HONOR'S BODYGUARD (THE BODYGUARD ROMANCE SERIES Book 1) (English Edition) Formato Kindle
While romantic reunions can take many forms, there is always one question that has to be answered sooner or later-what happened?
Vance had always been extremely proud of Noella, and just because his life had been ruined, he saw no reason why she also had to suffer. When his dad died, leaving him and his mother penniless, he dropped out of law school and ended his relationship with Noella, but in doing so, he stopped a scandal that could have ruined her family. These secrets he would never let her know. Ironically, years later, he would have never guessed she would be instrumental in ruining his career with the Tampa police force.
After Noella finished law school and started pursuing her goal of working up the ranks in judgeships, she never considered inviting another guy into her life. As such, when someone attempts to threaten her into vacating her seat on the bench, and by force if necessary, she knows of no one else she really trust as much as Vance, who now has a successful bodyguard and private detective business.
She knows that Vance might hate her for her part in having him dismissed from the police force, but what he will never know is that she actually saved him from going to prison. Additionally, she now thinks he was framed, and perhaps by the same people who are threatening her.
She had to talk him into taking her on as a client . . . but would he agree to her request? As the number of attacks on her life increases, Vance soon has no choice but to offer her his protection, and in spite of everything, when they see each other again their old attraction for each other returns.
She wants the truth. He wants the truth. However, making the ultimate sacrifice is not always easy to understand, whether given or received. Ultimately . . . could they now trust each other with these secrets? While their lives depend on discovering the truth to their past, these truths are locked in deep secrets that could also destroy them.
This is one international romantic thriller you do not want to miss. With this contemporary romance filled with suspense and mystery, you will want to read this romance story slowly to solve the crime that destroyed their relationship earlier, because only the truth will give them a chance at true love.

The minute she comes out of the encounter, although she has been followed and been receiving those threat calls for weeks, someone tries to kidnap her...
The plot idea in itself could have been really interesting, but too many details are not congruent, for instance, being a judge, why should she condemn someone to losing his professional and social status if she doesn't believe he did the bad deed and certain he's been framed?
Then, the first scenes of "violence", "abduction tentative" and further threats against our heroin are not even suspenseful, the reader doesn't even get in the least preoccupied nor feel any excitement from the scenes. The author also tries to bring up an eventual romantics encounter between the two protagonist, but I reached 30% of the book before abandoning it, and up until then the most sensual or sexy thought is that she probably fills out her business suit too much, even though you can't see under all these clothes...
So the author, at least at 30% of the book, has failed in his goal, as up until now, this romantic suspense is neither romantic, nor thrilling.
I gave up , even though I get many free books and pursue reading the average ones until the end.

Have you ever read a book that kept your attention the entire time? It kept getting better and better? After reading it, you want there to be a sequel and a movie about it? Well, I went into reading Her Honor's Bodyguard with no expectation.
I liked the other 2 books I had read by Johnny Ray and thought, "It will be hard to live up to those past 2 books." However, I have to say this book was better than the first 2 by this author.
Why? The plot, characters, storyline, words seemed to have a perfect interplay that flowed throughout the entire story. There were no out of place sentences or words that didn't quite feel right. Instead there were symmetry between the it all. It made for a great read!
The book was intense and could be seen as addictive as the tv shows, New York Undercover, CSI & The Wire. Also it was even better than the movies, Blow and Bodyguard. It was a story that had so many obstacles that kept presenting themselves for both Noella and Vance. The life of illusion and reality was easily molded together to represent an authentic plot and believable characters.
Having a man who wasn't rich his whole life, who had to encounter real struggles that the average man goes through and even those criminals experience, made for an interesting storyline. Vance could be considered a man with very bad luck and a life that would have most drinking from a glass bottle every day. However, he is driven to do what he knows he can to clear his name, as well as that of his father.
With the crimes he and his dad have committed, maybe everything can't be cleared but he hopes that he can make it in life. He may have went foggy and not remembered every detail, when he was accused of some bogus charges. He felt everything wasn't adding up. Something just didn't seem right.
He knows he is dealing with some dirty people; he just doesn't know how he can get answers and prove his innocence. However what he doesn't expect is to have his services requested by a past love he left, his beautiful ex, Noella Peterson. He also doesn't dare believe what happens in minutes of them reconnecting. Life could actually get more twisted!
There are some very worldly characters that don't play by the rules in this plot. There are some many events that kept you guessing but not quite sure what would happen for quite some time. These are some events that cause Noella and Vance to be thrown back into each others lives. Who is telling the truth about the past? Who will be proven innocent? And who guilty? Will Vance seek revenge for his life ending up in shambles, by an ex who ruined his and his mother's life?
Life is definitely a mess and it may not get better? What to do in that case? Vance is broke and has been for many years. It seems that life isn't fair and has dealt Noella a prosperous hand. Will Vance assist or take advantage of his work being needed by her? Will he finally give her what was coming to her-payback?
What roles do their families play in the demise that led to his dad's life ending? To him and his ex splitting? Justice is not prevailing and there are some life threats that lead to death. This is a story that all readers of all genres would like because once again, Johnny Ray has put together the perfect plot. The characters are even more addictive to read about. The cover and title give you a hint to what the book is about, but the plot has one waiting for a sequel. If you want a sequel, you want to read more. This is a book that made me feel fulfilled. One that I didn't want to end.
