Zac Edwards is a Hollywood film star and makes every woman swoon around him except for the woman whose assigned to be his bodyguard, Kat Parker. One minute Kat can be around him joking around as his friend but the second she steps out in public with him she’s in bodyguard mode. Kat knows that she can’t cross the line to anything more than a friendly working relationship whilst she’s Zac’s bodyguard but that doesn’t stop the pair from wanting more.
Overall I liked this book. I thought it was a nice plot and the characters were good, however part of the plot was a little forced for my liking. I found that the storyline almost did a complete 360 halfway through when the real danger hits. Yes, I understand that Kat’s a bodyguard and it’s her job to be on the lookout for people out to hurt Zac but I felt that the story went too far. I personally would’ve been happy if the crazed storyline was fleshed out more, it was completely believable. I felt like what actually happened crosses the line just too much for me.
I really liked both Zac and Kat. Both were interesting characters and I felt like dual perspective storytelling really worked in this book so you could get an insight into their lives that was more than the tough security guard and Hollywood heartthrob. However I didn’t really get that much spark between them and although and I liked them as friends it didn’t bother me if they got together in the end or not.
I’ve read other books by Kathryn Freeman before and I do enjoy the way in which the author writes. I think she’s got a real talent for writing humorous stories whilst still maintaining a serious storyline that you can become invested in. She writes fantastic characters and although I didn’t even the storyline as much as other books that I’ve read, I did really like the characters.
I liked this book and although I don’t think its the authors best novel, I did enjoy reading it. I didn’t perhaps gel with the characters as much as I thought that I would and the storyline wasn’t exactly to my liking but overall it was a fun, quick read.
