Isabella Colby has managed to build up a good life for herself. After her father abandoned them and her mother resorting to a lifestyle that Isabella did not really approve of, she has worked hard to get where she is. She has a good job with L.A.’s top Skincare specialist, has a home and a new start. But with a hottie, in form of Reed McKinley, moving in next door and finally discovering her father after years, Isabella’s life is headed towards more complications than she had ever bargained for. On the other hand, after his cover got blown in his last assignment, Reed moves to L.A. with a new job at Ethan Cooke’s firm. He has no interest in getting tangled in a romantic relationship nor does he have any interest in the mob case that had almost led him to his death. Fate has plans for these two and as their paths cross they can hardly ignore each other or their past.

Isabella is a strong girl. She had been brought up by a single parent who was hardly there for her. So, it is really a wonder that she turned out as well as she did. I also liked the fact that she didn’t rush back to Reed immediately after discovering the fact that he had been deceiving her for most part of their relationship. She took her time and space and tried to move on. But some relationships are just meant to be and this was one of them. It doesn’t hurt that despite his actions, Reed’s intentions were pure and selfless. Reed on the other hand, made me a bit uneasy because I felt that he should have come clean to Isabella the moment he discovered that she had no involvement with the mob, if not at the very beginning. He knew he was lying and he did not like it one bit, so why did he continue with it? In the end, his intentions were good even if I do not agree with some of his actions. I also liked the fact that it wasn’t insta-love. They met, they became friends, they dated and let the relationship take its course. I have a question though… where in real life can we find such hottie, responsible and macho guys who have such caring sides and are willing to open up so much?

What are the chances that when Reed moves to L.A., he would end up living so close to someone who has a link to his last case as a cop? The coincidence was a little bit too much for my liking. Other than that this book was a pleasurable read.

I have read the entire Bodyguards of L.A. County series and every book is equally impressive. This one did not disappoint. I'm just sad that I now have to wait for the next one!

First of all let me say that I absolutely LOVE this series. Each book was a winner to me. But this book is absolutely the best one of the series. If I could give it 10 stars I would. I never wanted to stop reading it. The characters were highly developed; the secondary characters were strong as well with just the right amount of intrigue to make you wonder how many of them will we see in the next book. The story line while sad with both H/h having to take traumatic journeys through their childhood years, helped to mold them into the adults they were today. Just when you think you had a handle on the story, something else happens. My only regret is that I'm finished with the story and have to wait until the next one comes out. This is definitely one I will read again and again; and trust me, there are not too many books that get a second read from me. Romantic, suspenseful, heart-wrenching, apprehensive, happiness, many emotions felt throughout this book not only by the characters but also by the reader. It's what makes a for a great book.

I didn't think this series could get any better but omg was I ever wrong!

This is Reed and Bellas story, it takes you on an emotional roller coaster, you smile laugh and cry with them. You don't need to read the other books in the series to understand this one but your seriously missing out if you don't.

Definitely worth reading.

Wow I have read everyone of this Series,. Finishing with a fabulous ending in book 11. A story that I just could not, put down, twists turns, mafia, cops special agents , & all the way through a story of a couple obsessed with each other & everything against their future.

This had me on the end of my seat wondering what else is coming next, I was in tears something that I never expected. Fabulous if you read this you won't be disappointed.

Congratulations Cate Beauman, you have done it again. I was thrilled to read the 11th book just like all the others in the Bodyguard series and was not disappointed at all. I could not put the book down. I am in love with Reed and Bella. Truth be told, I love all the heroes and heroines from the previous Bodyguard books and to get a peak at them all its like saying hello to old friend.

Great job done and wait for the next instalment
