About this ebook

She doesn’t believe in heroes anymore. He’ll prove her wrong.

 

Mercenary Dax Freed would rather stride into the desert naked and covered in honey than pretend to be a reclusive romance novelist’s fake boyfriend, but nobody gave him the option.

Roberta Sharpe writes about heroes for a living, but she already knows they don’t exist in real life. She doesn’t need a former Army Ranger who looks like he could be on her covers camping out in her guest room to prove the theory, but nobody gave her a choice.

When someone breaks into her home and leaves a grisly calling card, her publisher insists she needs a bodyguard. Dax is everything she doesn’t want in her life again. Tall, dark, handsome, and certain of his appeal, it’s almost impossible to ignore the sizzling chemistry between them.

It might not matter, though. The danger lurking in the shadows threatens to ruin more than a chance at love. If Dax is going to save Robbie, he’ll have to unleash the beast within… and prove that heroes don’t just exist in the pages of a novel.

Ratings and reviews

I love all the Bandits, but I didn't expect to love Dax as much as I did. Romance novelist Roberta "Robbie" and Dax were perfect for each other, even if they started off on rocky ground given neither were fans of the bodyguard scenario they found themselves in. Dax's sweet side came out and he helped bring Robbie's inner strength to the surface. Danger, who done it questions (which had me wanting to scream wake up! at times 😆), suspense, emotion, and of course love with an HEA.

Black Velvet by Lynn Raye Harris. This is Dax and Robbie story. Robbie is a writer who was being stalked. Dax was sent in to protect her. Sparks was flying from the beginning. But Ribbie is stubborn and untrusting after her divorce. After being around Dax her writer's block unlock. Being with a real life hero was better than the fictional one she wrote about. Watching Robbie learn to love and trust was awesome to read about. Love me some Dax our newest hero!!!

From the first chapter to the last you are on the be edge of your seat, trying to work out who is trying to hurt Robbie. Just love this story, can not wait to find out who is up next. Shade, Finn, Jamie.
