Love cannot be denied….even when it puts you in danger
Bodyguard is the first book in the Her Protector series and if the other books that follow are like this one then it is going to be an entertaining ride. As the saying goes “the heart wants what the heart wants”, and in the case of Aleissa and Carter that would be each other, even if it puts them in danger from all sides.
This full on story, in action, drama, romance, and smexy passion is a wonderful read. The story-line is nicely crafted and the characters are great together.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
Carter and Aleissa were faced with some impossible odds with her indirect connections to the ‘family business’; and his position as her bodyguard. What seemed impossible was made possible when her life was put in jeopardy and Carter was the only man that her father trusted to save her. Their chemistry was off the charts even with her acting like a spoiled brat at times. Their HEA after was sealed after her rescue and her father’s tuned changed when what really mattered to him was put to the challenge. Love the storyline but as usual, I have to take away for some of the language used.

Mason and Libby know each other through Masons son who Libby teaches, they both have feelings for each other but doubt the other feels the same way. Top that off with things not being as simple as either would like in their own lives two and you have an intriguing love story!!
Great storyline and character development made this book a hot and enjoyable read! Extremely entertaining, captivating, and interesting sexy read. I could not put it down. Wonderfully written with strong, intriguing characters. I want to read more from this author.

Alessia is the daughter of a mafia head of family. She is spoiled and a bit of a brat in trying to get Carter’s attentions. Carter is her bodyguard for four years and he understands that if he is caught having any type of relationship with Alessia he will die,. Bodyguard’s are not what mafia princesses marry in their world. I felt Miley Maine did a great job with her characters and the plot of the book. It was very interesting and I stayed up way to late trying to read it all.
Carter and Aleissa’s relationship started when he was made bodyguard to his boss’s daughter, she needs a bodyguard as her father is a mob boss. From the very beginning, there is an attraction between them that turns into love which they have to keep secret. When her father discovers their love he forces Carter to leave or face death. Aleissa discovers that she’s pregnant and runs away but then is kidnapped, on the orders of the man her father picked out for her. In a desperate attempt to get her back her father, Leonardo, asks Carter to help, and when he saves her Leonardo is forced to change his mind and allow them to marry.
This was a truly different and definitely unexpected story that was impossible to put aside until the last word. Alissa and Carter were terrific characters, and their story was truly compelling. Raised without her mother who died in childbirth has been somewhat difficult in that her father has had her closely guarded at all times. He has, however, paid the tuition for her to attend the exclusive Columbia College of Arts in Chicago as well as for her luxury apartment. Carter is her bodyguard and has fallen deeply in love with her as she has with him. The principal obstacle to their complete happiness together is her father’s wish for her to marry another man with whom he has negotiated a business alliance.

I liked this book. The story was well written. The characters were well defined in the story. Carter is the bodyguard to Aleissa. And she is so determined to get Carter to notice her, she is trying everything. Carter does notice her but can’t on his feelings. He and Aleissa finally can’t keep their attraction hidden, they act on their feelings. Their story is so much more and you have to read the book to understand their story.

Desperately Seeking a Happily-Ever-After
Aleissa Romano, a honey-toned beauty with long dark hair and piercing dark eyes, lives the life of a modern-day princess in a high-rise Chicago luxury apartment. But Aleissa’s life is not a perfect fairy tale. While she has enjoyed the unwavering devotion of her loving, father, she has never experienced the love of a mother. Her mother died giving birth to the only child, leading the grieving husband and proud new father to vow that nothing would ever harm his precious daughter, a living link to his beloved, deceased wife.
And while Alessia’s life has been carefully guarded, she has been able to establish a tight group of friends with whom she can share her passions and secrets. Her girls know that Alessia’s passion and career goal is to be an artist—a dream which many parents might not see as a practical pathway to economic security. But as a modern-day princess—a mob princess—her dad, Leonardo Romano, happily pays the tuition for his princess to pursue her passion for art by attending the expensive and exclusive Columbia College of Arts in Chicago, just as he covers the cost of her luxury apartment, conveniently close to her college, and arranges opportunities for his daughter to participate in exclusive gallery openings and to meet wealthy art patrons like the handsome Cyrille Laurent of Paris, France.
But, the most explosive secret that Alessia has lately shared with her friends is that she is greatly attracted to her live-in bodyguard, Carter Richards, who has replaced the previous bodyguards because they were too easily manipulated by Aleissa, allowing her to engage in activities her dad had determined too dangerous for a princess, especially his mob princess. But regardless of the inappropriateness, Alessia is determined to woo and win the heart and body of Carter. So, her most urgent goal is to prevent her dad from discovering her passion for her knight and eventually, secret lover—a secret he might discover if he looked carefully at the faces of the male figures in her latest paintings. But, the need to hide her secret lover becomes more imperative when her dad announces the unexpected and unacceptable—a business alliance negotiated with Cyrille Laurent, with his only child, his only daughter as a bride to seal the deal.
Miley Maine delivers a suspenseful, romantic tale designed to keep the reader entertained and entangled in the fates of Alessia and Carter. The tale offers an engaging story, with passionate moments, growing love and an unsettling flight to escape the powers of evil and desperate men who are more than willing to force Alessia to become the sacrifice needed to “seal the deal”. The author offers the reader a great romantic tale laced with moments of deadly fear.
