Review: Captured by the Bodyguard
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 04 7, 2013
PLOT: Alexandra Duke is the daughter of a billionaire. When he receives what he perceives to be a threat to his daughter, he hires Cane Hutchinson as her bodyguard. Alexandra doesn't want a guard interfering with her freedom and Cane doesn't want to babysit a spoiled brat.PROS: It's very well written with few editorial mistakes. I did notice a few (want used instead of what a couple of times, etc.), but nothing that takes away from the book.CONS: I've read all of Dez Burke's books and this one is my least favorite. It's kind of boring and not even in the realm of being hot like her other books. The book is 85 percent done before they share a real kiss. While this supports the idea of Cane's strong character, it makes for some dull reading. The majority of the book is spent summing up their time together. It is often mentioned that there is romantic tension between them, but as a reader, you much beyond a few hot stares. Until the end, there isn't much steam or heat.2.5 - 3 STARS: I was bored by the free sample, but I thought it would get better from there. If you enjoy the sample, perhaps you'll enjoy it more than I did.
