(ARC provided by author in exchange for an honest review)Unexpected Protector is Tommy and Holly's story. We first meet Holly and Tommy in Unexpected Angel and we see the characters from book #1 in Unexpected Protector.The book picks up where book #1 finishes with Holly in a hospital bed after the show down with Nick.Holly has had a rough life, turned to drugs to get through it and made some seriously poor decisions that almost got her and her best friend killed.Tommy is a cop and a Dom who is drawn to Holly and although he should stay away from her due to his obsession he finds he simply can't.I love the way the relationship between Tommy and Holly develops through the book. Tommy attempts to teach Holly the true ways of a D/s relationship in order to gain her trust in him. The book does have some element of BDSM in it but it is more about the storyline and character development than the BDSM and it works really well. I read this book in one sitting and as I was coming to the end of the book I had a sinking feeling that we were going to be left with a cliff-hanger and boy is it a cliff-hanger. I normally don't mind them but with Unexpected Angel giving us a HEA and this book being about other characters I really didn't see the cliff-hanger coming and if I'm being completely honest I'm slightly disappointed in it. Other than the cliff-hanger I really did enjoy reading the book which is why it's getting 4*.I'm now sat here impatiently waiting for the next book hehe
