Getting herself and her sister away from their mother has been a dream of Ginger Peet for some time. When the opprotunity finally presents itself, Ginger runs with it. She and her sister sneak out one night, with $50,000 Ginger stole from her mother, and head from Nashville to Chicago. After living in motels for a week the sisters are finally able to move into an apartment. On move-in day they meet their new neighbor, police lieutenant Derek Tyler. Once he sees her and begins to get to know her, he begins to think of her as his, and there’s nothing anyone can do to change that.So, where should I start? Derek? He’s absolutely amazing. I do not think that I’ve ever felt this strongly for a male lead before and I read a lot of books. He’s your typical alpha male but there’s just something about the man that takes him to that next level of sexy. It could be how strongly he wants to protect Ginger, or how he cares about Willa, or just how he takes what he wants. Ginger is kind of annoying but still likable. She has no confidence in herself and her decisions, but she is young and has had to be caretaker of her sister since she was really young. She is strong though, and that’s what counts the most.Protecting What’s His is a fast, sexy read that will make you want more of Tessa Bailey’s books.
