T.I.M.E. BOOK REVIEW
Katherine Center has become an automatic add to the top of my TBR List toot suite! Taking my speedy "reading car" tight around any corner to get to the bookstore super-fast and pick up my latest copy...
So, when I heard KC had a new book in the works earlier this year, I made sure my car was filled with gas and my TBR List had an open spot reserved for this upcoming book release!
As always, Katherine Center's books feature strong female characters in roles that are not typically inhabited by women. Within this book, our protagonist is a female bodyguard... And this pairing is even more interesting by employing "dynamite comes in small packages" with our female lead vs her "protection target" as an action hero male movie mega-star.
Also, another feature with Katherine Center's books are a focus on Contemporary Romance without steamy or explicit content. You will still experience a romantic thrill but without any worries that you are being drawn into a virtual "threesome" with the characters.
So, think of this author as an option for readers looking for a book featuring strong female character storylines who are experiencing strong contemporary romance storylines with a "closed door" perspective by keeping steamy details private... ✨😎✨

SYNOPSIS
Hannah Brooks looks like a kindergarten teacher, but she's actually an Executive Protection Agent, or "bodyguard". And her next assignment? She's just been hired to protect megastar actor Jack Stapleton.
Jack is too gorgeous for words, famous, and probably used to getting whatever he wants. But Hannah's job is to make sure he doesn't get hurt — no matter what he thinks and no matter how distracting he looks.
But as they begin to work together, Hannah quickly realizes that Jack isn't a spoiled Hollywood prince. Plus, he's hiding a painful secret, and he's in more danger than anyone knows.
As they race to uncover the truth and stay one step ahead of a determined stalker, Hannah and Jack will have to confront their pasts — and decide if their fake relationship, originally designed to throw off the stalker, is turning into something real.
Filled with humor, heart, and a whole lot of suspense, The Bodyguard is a story about protecting the ones you love...and learning to take a chance on yourself.
BOOK CLUB DISCUSSION:
Family is everything, and sometimes we have to protect them at all costs.
Sometimes the people who need protection the most are the ones who seem like they don't.
Taking risks is scary, but sometimes it's worth it if it means finding happiness.
