Hired to protect her

…unable to resist her

The job sounds simple: teach a businessman’s daughter how to stay safe. But former navy SEAL turned bodyguard Kyle Frasier has a personal motive, too. Harper Jansen is his late best friend’s fiancée. Loyalty demands he protect her, not that Harper looks in need of rescuing. In fact, it’s Kyle who needs help—balancing duty with his desire to build a life with the one woman he shouldn’t want…

 

KEEPING HER CLOSE is book three in the emotionally riveting Pacific Cove Romance series by Carol Ross and brings us the story of a former Navy SEAL turned bodyguard and a photographer in a bit of an opposites attract story.

Harper is immediately an easy to relate to character even though she’s keeping some info about her late fiancee under her sleeve for a good bit of the book. She’s kindhearted and seems always willing to give of her time.

Kyle is conflicted a good part of the book because he likes Harper, but he feels so much allegiance to his late best friend who she was engaged to.

I recommend this story to anyone who enjoys their romance on the sweet side with strong character development and deep story lines. This series as a whole has been really good and I always look forward to a return visit to Pacific Cove.
