I was first introduced to this author with her book Exes and O’s a few years ago. I loved that story so much!

I was excited to dive into another one by her, and it is so worth it! Check out my thoughts below.

OVERVIEW:
Andi Zeigler lives a double life. By day, she’s the no-nonsense, steadfast personal assistant to the Prime Minister of Canada’s wife. By night, she slips out of her heels and writes romance novels under a top-secret pen name. But when her steamiest book, The Prime Minister & Me, unexpectedly becomes a bestseller, rumors of a real-life affair between her and the PM start swirling out of control.

Enter Nolan Crosby, the PM’s new close protection officer (aka bodyguard) – and Andi’s failed one-night stand from three years ago. Nolan’s in town very temporarily to care for his mother, who’s battling early-onset Alzheimer’s. But when the scandal erupts, Andi ropes him into a fake-dating plan.

As loyal employees, they’ll pretend to date for the summer, just long enough to put the scandal to bed and save their boss’s reputation. In an unexpected plot twist, Andi and Nolan discover that keeping their romance strictly fictional might be easier said than done.

The Bodyguard Affair by Amy Lea Review

This book has the best plot. It is hard not to like this story because it is unique and supportive in so many ways.

The beginning sets the stage with a fabulous kick-off, and you will absolutely fall in love with Nolan. You can feel their connection and cannot wait to dive into the story.

The Bodyguard Affair brings a fun story that is entertaining from page one, with a range of topics that bring the emotional connection. The secondary characters add depth and inspiration. Andi did have some low self-esteem she had to work through, but Nolan was the perfect partner to help her through.

I love the little closet visits, and the author brings some delicious steam. Their love is so sweet and sensual. They are perfect together. I could not stop reading this one in certain parts. And that ending – sighhhh

If you love a good romance, this one is a great choice!
