Guarding Hope by Ann MayburnI've read several of the indomitable Ann's work and to date this is one of books that was surprising! Yes I said surprising! It was a BDSM, kink filled erotica, which is what she like to write. This was a story filled with passion, love, and the ability to overcome a past that hurt both  parties.Dr. Hope Walker crosses the wrong crime lord, and needs protection, her dad turns to the one man that left her broken hearted, and coincidentally enough the only man she trusts to keep her safe.Daniel Escobar war veteran, war hero (not to him if asked)and no hired muscle is shocked to see the one woman whom he had thought was forever beyond his reach. Puzzled as to why her father, the man who told him that she was married, and to leave her alone would want him to protect her now, he takes the job.Now the two of them pick open old wounds, all the while trying to evade a crime lord that wants to kill her and silence her forever.I absolutely loved this book. I love Ann's books whether they are kink filled, or sweet and loving, there is always something  going on behind the scenes. Pasts to overcome, or present problems they have to deal with. Ann has a way of bringing her characters to life in a way that makes them seem real and able to step off the pages of her book. I can't wait to read the next book in this brand new series.I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
