The Billionaire Needs a Bodyguard by Ravina Hilliard
4.0
Many Thanks to Dawn Hill Publications for the chance to read and review this book. All opinions are expressed voluntarily.
The story has a very unique plot, that of an agent going undercover as an escort to guard the billionaire. Michael Thornton is a moron who coz of a failed marriage has commitment issues but no worries, he is a handsome devil so there’s no dearth of women falling into his bed.
Lex Granger is assigned to be Michael’s bodyguard but the man in question considers all threats against him as harmless and therefore wants no guarding. So, with the help of Kyle, who is head of security team, Lex becomes Sasha White, an escort, a pretend girlfriend to Michael to help him close a deal with the Dutch government.
The first part of the book was slow going and I was not all that keen about Lex’s character. For a security consultant tasked with guarding a man, initial pages were all about Lex forgetting the threats and becoming a puddle under the hands of Michael. But as the story progress, Lex’s intelligence and strength begins to shine thru’ and the pace of the story also accelerates. There were some interesting scenes as Lex confronts Ivana, the ambassador’s wife and handles her adroitly.
I loved how the author has clearly shown Michael’s confusion and his thoughts, not falling for an escort and be swindled, thus his hot and cold approach. Of course, there’s the angst and worries due to whole lots of misconceptions and misunderstandings and assumptions, but the HEA is definitely guaranteed for a reader.
A good solid romance!
