The Protector is exactly the kind of book I love to get lost in. It’s been too long since I curled up on the couch with a cup of tea and really good book. I used to be the girl that had a book in hand at all times. But somewhere in between homework and soccer games, I’ve let busyness creep in and the list of books I want to read continues to grow. Last week, New York Times bestselling author Jodi Ellen Malpas released her latest novel, The Protector, and I’m determined to sneak in a few moments each day to dive into this gripping suspenseful romance.
The Protector is Malpas’ 7th novel and her previous works were all on the New York Times Best Sellers list. Her first series, the This Man Trilogy, was written in secret out of fear. Malpas wasn’t sure what people would think about her if they knew the capacity of her imagination. When she finally self-published This Man, the reaction was astounding. The hero, Jesse Ward, soon became the most prolific alpha male character in modern day fiction.
About The Protector
The Protector is Malpas’ first stand-alone novel and follows the story of an ex-SAS sniper-turned-bodyguard, who is hired to protect a London socialite. Here is a preview of the book:
People think they have Camille Logan nailed: daddy’s girl; beautiful, spoiled young woman with her father’s bank balance to fund her lifestyle. But Camille is determined to have a life free from his strings. Out on her own, she’s made mistakes, including one that found her clawing her way back after a stint in rehab and plenty of bad press. Now, after fighting so hard to be independent and happy, she finds her life threatened as a result of her father’s ruthless business dealings. Caught between resentment and fear, Camille prepares herself for the measures her father will take to protect her. But nothing could prepare her for the ex-SAS sniper who crashes into her life.
Jake Sharp resides in his own personal hell. He was distracted from duty once before, and the consequences were devastating–both personally and professionally. He vowed never to let that happen again. Accepting the job of bodyguard to Camille Logan isn’t the kind of distraction from his demons he should take. Women and Jake don’t mix well, yet protecting the heiress seems the lesser of two evils. But Jake soon discovers that she isn’t the woman she’s perceived to be. She’s warm, compassionate, her presence settling, and his duty to protect her soon goes deeper than a well-paid job, no matter how hard he fights it. He needs absolution. He comes to need Camille. But he knows he can’t have both.
Malpas is passionate about writing powerful love stories and I can’t wait to sit down with a cup of tea and a blanket to read The Protector. You can purchase The Protector now at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and IndieBound, or download it via iBooks, Kobo and Google Play.
