by A.C. Arthur

Who's Guarding Who?

Millionaire playboy Lorenzo "Renny" Bennett didn't have time for a relationship. Women threw themselves at him, but he always let them know upfront that the relationship was going nowhere. He was the odd brother out. He was an artist, not a "suit" in the family multi-million dollar business. When threats against his family caused the Bennetts to obtain security, Renny was less than pleased with his bodyguard. Sabrina Desdune left the military after 16 years to return home and work for her brother's security company. Something caused Bree to come home, and no one knew why...and she wasn't talking. But Renny had other plans. From their first meeting , Renny and Bree felt an attraction. After their first encounter, there was no mistaking the sexual chemistry between these two. Guarding His Body was phenomenal. AC Arthur did an excellent job intertwining the subplots into the main plot. The element of suspense will have you turning page after page. It had all the elements of a good adventure, an excellent suspense thriller, and a mind-blowing romance novel. I cannot say enough good things about this book. Guarding Hs Body is definitely a must read. Reviewed by Tenecia for Urban Reviews

Who's Guarding Whom? (RAW Rating: 4.5)

There has been a threat against the Bennett family as they attempt to merge Bennett Industries with Coastal Technologies. Because of the amount of money involved and the stockholders, this calls for secure measures for all members of the Bennett clan. Hence, the Bennetts have hired Desdune Security to maintain their safety. Lorenzo (Renny) Bennett, erotic sculptor and playboy extraordinaire, is not having it, particularly with the mere slip of a woman assigned as his bodyguard. There is no possible way Sabrina Desdune could ever provide the protection he needs. But, on second thought, his artistic mind can think of a few other things she could do which have less to do with guarding him and more to do with his body. After a devastating setback, Sabrina has lost what she loves most and is trying to re-assimilate into civilian life. This job means everything to her, especially since her big brother entrusted her to do this job for his security firm. Sabrina is an ex-marine who has received training with the nation's best. She may be small in stature, but she knows how to handle herself in combat. As the stalker picks up the pace, the sparks fly between her and Renny. Then the unthinkable happens; her past comes barreling down on her at break-neck speed and she may be the one in need of some protection. In GUARDING HIS BODY, A.C.

Muy Caliente

This book is hot. I loved it. I enjoyed Renny and Sabrina and the passionate tension they were fighting. The chemistry between them was so hot I needed glass of water to finish reading the book. The plot was good and there was the right amount of passion, hot sex, good dialogue, and best of all very strong secondary characters. Renny is an alpha male and I loved how he turned the tables on Sabrina. His honesty was refreshing and a turn-on. This is a great read. I can't wait for the connecting stories.
