Dull. Paper-thin character development and zero plot. There’s an amusing scene of a cow being curious about the inside of the protagonist’s car. That’s it.

A hell of a good time. A new twist on fake-dating that gender-bent the bodyguard trope, featuring a hilarious duo who made me laugh out loud.
That said, the side-characters felt pretty two-dimensional, most of whom were just stereotypes. And it was difficult to believe the narrator was as good a bodyguard as we're meant to believe because she runs away from several harmless things, e.g. attractive people and harmless albeit large animals.

I had a fun time with this book! I don’t think I’ve read anything with a bodyguard trope before, especially in romance. I liked that Hannah was the small bodyguard and Jack was the movie star in need of a bodyguard because of recent stalker activity. I didn’t love the end as much as I hoped. I enjoyed the slow burn (as much as it pained me to wait for the romance). The ending was just a little too weird for me, even though it made sense for the plot. Also, I loved Jack’s parents, they were so sweet!
