I find writing reviews for this type of book difficult. I enjoy them. I like how fast and easy they are to get through. Someone once told me I should read more candy, that is exactly how I would describe this book and others like it. They really don't take a lot of mental power, but they are still fun to read.

I did enjoy the little twist, saw it coming, but it was still easy to see how the characters were surprised. I did like how the bodyguard was able to take her life into consideration without actually prohibiting her from being able to accomplish things she needed to get done. I liked how she wasn't going out of her way to push his buttons and actually did what he told her to do, especially since he was just trying to protect her. I thought the romance between the two characters could have been a little more fleshed out, but it was still a fun read.

Overall I gave this book 4 stars out of 5.
