I just love the way Kayla writes her FMCs.  They are confident, beautiful, plus-sized women who are amazing just the way they are.  Birdie is no exception and is one of my favourites that Kayla has written.  Birdie and Liam are former childhood BFFs.  After ten years apart, Birdie is now a badass rockstar, and Liam works as a bodyguard.  When a stalker starts threatening her, mutual friends intervene, and Liam becomes her new shadow.  These two are reluctantly forced together and have to put their past aside.  I enjoyed seeing the two of them slowly open up to one another again and let that (very obvious) chemistry take over.  Kayla knows how to write a spicy scene, and this book is HOT, HOT, HOT!!!

I listened to the Audiobook version of this and really enjoyed both narrators.  Grayson Owens is always a must-listen for me, and I really enjoyed Angelina Rocca's performance here.
