Customer Reviews

Wow!

Being a member of RWA also, I was curious about this one, and found it to be a winner! The rich girl versus the bodyguard was a wonderful concept and it was obvious the author had fun with it. Good job by Ms. Jerott, and I highly recommend it!

MICHELLE JEROTT'S BEST ONE YET

A great story - mystery, romance, adventure - a hunky hero, an original heroine. . .what more could you want? This is her best story yet. A real keeper. Try Cherry Adair's new one, too - KISS AND TELL.

Get your oven mitts ready...

....because this book is SCORCHING HOT! Michelle Jerott has quite possibly wrote the novel of her life with this one. Lili is a delight, and Matt is one of those dark, brooding heroes that make a woman go weak in the knees. You'll find a bit of everything in this book: humor, witty dialogue, mystery, romance, suspense, flashback scenes to the early 1930's, and of course: hot steamy sex.Bravo, Michelle! I can't wait to read your next one!

This "goil" would love the guard this hero's body.

Michelle Jerott's work is beyond every author I have ever read. She outclasses and out writes all of the major authors in the romance genre. It's time for her to get the recognition long over due and hopefully "Her Bodyguard" will make the publishing and reading world finally stop and take notice.Her character and plot development is without flaw, innovative and memorable. She puts just the right amount of wit to counter balance the fabulous intimacy between her hero and heroine in her remarkable story lines. I'm always left with the feeling of having met her characters in person and traveled to the wonderful places she takes us in her books. Her work is perfection and I have yet to find an error in any of her pieces."Her Bodyguard" brings to life a by-gone era of gangsters, flappers, bootlegging and the shoot'em up mobster way of life that existed in our parents and grandparents life times. Iremember my grandfather talking about many of the famous gangsters who "vacationed" in northern Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. They robed in Chicago and spent their money in these areas, supporting the then hurting economy. Locals viewed them with a mix of emotions, respect, admiration, caution and fear. They were neither turned in nor turned away. Michelle brings the life of one mobster and his sweetheart to life before your eyes while developing a modern day love. With interesting twists and turns, this book will keep you turning pages late into the night, then tossing a turning to get back to it.For those who have not experienced Michelle's work, I have one thing to say .... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Dive into any one and you will soon be buying all four.

For fans of romantic suspense and mystery cozies

While shoe history expert and modern designer Professor Lili Kavanaugh was at the Art Institute of Chicago giving a lecture, a man with a gun tried to abduct her. She manages to escape by fighting and fainting, but a family friend hires personal security specialist Matt Hawkins as Lili's bodyguard over both their objections. A second attempt to kidnap Lili occurs, but Matt and his team thwart that effort. Having no enemies, Lili wonders why her. Could the target be her latest addition to her historical shoe collection? Still why would anyone commit a violent crime to obtain a seven decade old pair of shoes even if they were involved in the legendary shootings of gangster Joey Mancuso and his squeeze Rose? Fans of romantic suspense and mystery cozies will enjoy HER BODYGUARD that combines a 1933 gangster story with a modern day romance linking the genres through the shoes. The noteworthy story line engages patrons of both genres as the action never eases up until the final scene. Michelle Jerott has written her best novel to date with two deep lead characters starring in a bizarre romantic thriller.Harriet Klausner
