Bodyguard.Sniper.Morally corrupt.I didn’t care who I aimed at. You paid me, I pulled the trigger. I sold my skills to the highest bidder, and trust me, I had skills. The Marines trained me to aim a sniper rifle, but life taught me to get the job done—at any expense.Except hostage recovery wasn’t on my short list. I didn’t care that the personal security firm that’d hired me was paying double to … that’d hired me was paying double to get some rich businessman’s daughter back without casualties. I didn’t negotiate with terrorists. Ever. I had my own plan. Take out anyone in my sights, recover the hostage, and get out. But then I laid eyes on the half-naked, bleeding brunette, and I changed my mind. I was gonna do a hell of a lot more than simply pull the trigger.
Now they were gonna find out how fearless a bodyguard could be.

Full Disclosure: I flippin’ loooove this author’s books & have read almost every single one. Her plots, characters & evocative writing just push every button I have & I consume them in one straight sitting because I MUST KNOW what happens & how things end.
For me, there is just SOMETHING about her Alphas that calls to me, & although each Hero is most definitely an ALPHA, each man has a different twist, a different take on how he presents his dominance, a different personality, making every single Alpha character distinctly unique, & wonderful. And her heroines are the same: each different, with different lives, histories, personalities so readers are able (IMO) to find characters they identify with &/or greatly enjoy.
And the author’s writing engages the reader & makes them CARE about the characters, we WANT them to overcome, to heal, to grow & support each other, to fall in love. I find myself swirled effortlessly into the author’s stories, gripped with emotion, swept along in the suspense & danger, rooting for the H/h through their travails & tentative journeys into potentially life altering relationships. And the steamy interactions sizzle off the page.
FEARLESS is Ty (H) & Ludeveine’s (h) story & is filled with danger, suspense, betrayal, excitement, romance & steam.
Ty is not as morally upright as his Luna & Associates brethren & not at all concerned about it. He’s lethal, powerful, huge & crudely blunt & unemotional. Get in, get done, get out & get paid sums up Ty’s attitude about his career at Andre Luna’s stellar Security company. There are only 2 people on earth he cares for & no one else. But then one night providing security at an A-List Hollywood party he stumbles across a tiny curvy doe-eyed brunette . . . .
Ludeveine, a make up artist, has been sheltered virtually the whole of her 24 years by her father & sheer happenstance brought her to the attention of a Hollywood star who invites her to a party. Naturally shy & somewhat submissive, Ludeveine finds she doesn’t really care for the loud crowded party peopled with obnoxious annoying men hitting on her, but a certain gorgeous huge security guard DOES catch her interest & notice . . . .
But after Ty & Ludeveine come to talk with each other, Ty realizes Ludeveine is too ‘classy & innocent’ for him & with a smile & a wink, he drives away.
But then he finds out Ludeveine has been kidnapped.
And, as far as Ty is concerned, now there are no rules: he’s going to get Ludeveine & in the process he’ll spill whatever amount of blood is required in order to successfully save her . . . .
An AWESOME heartwarming, emotionally wrenching & exciting romance that I WILL be rereading MULIPLE times!!!
Love all the books. I buy them as soon as I finish one…I order another. Steamy and sexy read.
Another steamy, action-packed book by Ms. Bartel! If you haven’t read the rest of her Bodyguard Series, you’re missing out!
If you know me a bit, you’ll know how much I love this author and her books.
Fearless is no different at all from all her great writing, fast paced situations that had me on the edge for the whole time reading Ty’s book and even if you know that they will have a hea , you still get so involved in their story.
I love the characters names Tyce and Ludeviene! I for one haven’t heard of them until now (, but my ignorance has no limits as well).
Like usual , the heroine is stronger than any woman and always goes toe to toe with our hero when needed. Ty may be alpha and fearless but Ludeviene is more than he can deal with but he has a huge heart and really cares for his family and falls in love with her without wanting through all the crazy things they have to get through.
I love this series and all the characters that are making an appearance, I feel like I want to go back and read their books all over again.
Read it and you’ll get hooked for life.
Holy Cow, this book was spectacular and so off the charts. Sybil has done it again and again, this one being another for the record books. It was like a perfect receipt! A blend of all your favorite characters, chemistry so combustible you swoon, humor, action, the taste of something so sweet that has your mouth watering and you just want more. I loved seeing other characters as always, the way they help one another and the banter between them, but also the way they have one another backs. Ty and Ludeviene are a perfect match. Sybil, you know how to write and you amaze me every time. Thanks for sharing the stories with us, this one and every one of them are remarkable.
Holy Hot Alpha!!! Fearless is sexy, hot, alluring and tantalizing. I loved reading Ty’s story…his relationship with his nephew was so precious but yet his fierceness was so dangerous! Ty is one of those butt kicking alphas you can’t help but fall for!! A five star read I highly recommend!!!
My only complaint would be that this book was just not long enough. However I could have gone on reading it forever so that’s not saying much. Ty is a no f***s given god of smoke and debauchery. He successfully pulled you in making you want more and more. Fearless once again showed us enough is never enough and I can’t wait to read more from the series!
I was excited for this book and couldn’t wait for it to go live. When it did, I got straight into it and could barely put it down. If sleeping and eating wasn’t an option, I wouldn’t have put it down. Ty is another one of Sybil Bartel’s military men and she sure knows how to write them. He’s tough, a killer, certainly not one to hesitate pulling the trigger.
He’s part of the security team the night he meets Ludeviene and he’s drawn to her, although he knows she’s rich and classy and he believes she’s not in his league. The attraction is mutual. Ludeviene can barely take her eyes off him but he’s not giving her any encouragement until he winks at her when she’s leaving the club. The thing is, she’s not just leaving. Ty finds out she’s been kidnapped and it involves ghosts from his past, the cartel. Determined to get her, he goes in alone. Infiltrating the cartel, since he’s been there, done that in the past. Then the wild ride really begins.
We get to catch up with some of the sexy men from previous books and some new sexy men that will hopefully be in books to come. It’s an action packed, suspenseful ride that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Ty is as the title suggests, fearless. He’s all sexy, muscled alpha male as only Sybil Bartel can write. The chemistry and the heat between these characters will surely have you reaching for the ice.
Loved it. Hated that it ended. Can’t wait for more from this author.
I love Sybil Bartel and her Alpha Male books…! I’ve read just about every book and recommend them to everyone and anyone that asks.
But TY… *Fans self* Hot damn I want one of him for myself!
I absolutely loved Ty and Ludeviene’s story. Hook.Line & Sinker. The angst, how we see glimpses of the other couples, Sybil’s stories get hotter, leaves you in your feels and wanting to read all her books for the first time again.
I can’t wait to read more!
This book was a thrill ride and I was up till 5a.m. because I couldn’t put it down. When Ty first met Ludeviene he wanted her, but he knew she was to good for him. He has been pretty tortured since he left the Marines, and the only thing that calms the chaos is his job. Ludeviene is a sheltered and somewhat naive woman. She doesn’t understand Ty’s hot and cold attitude when they meet. This story is fast and their relationship is forged quickly under severe stress. I love the interactions between all of the bodyguards and their friends, I also loved Ty with Nash. There were a couple of cringe worthy moments, but this is another great story from Sybil Bartel!!
Sybil hasn’t written a book that I didn’t love. Her writing is amazing. Her characters are to die for. These alphas make you want things you never knew you would want. Ty is one of my favorites. His mouth, omg… I am in love with it. He’s cocky, but in a sexy way. The way he treats Ludeviene is like no other. I promise, this is a story you will not put down!
I would love for Ty to be my bodyguard. This is a must read. Ty was unpredictable you just didn’t know what he was going to do ,he just did it. This is a great series to start,you will not be disappointed. Loved the story between Ty and Ludeviene. You just have to read this,looking for more from Sybil Bartel.
Holy wow. Sybil and her Alpha heroes. Is there really much more to say? Yes? Ok, I will continue.
Fearless is the story of Ty and Ludeveine.
Ty is the dangerous alpha. A twisted history. A loose moral compass. A hidden soft spot. A vulgar mouth. Painful demons. All in all, he is perfect.
Ludeveine is rich. Sheltered. Shy. But before you roll your eyes, you should know, she is INTERESTING.
Sybil managed to make a heroine I would normally find dull and predictable into someone interesting. Beneath all of Ludeveine’s hidden shyness and vulnerability lies someone who is strong, nonjudgmental moral, and protective.
This story is laced with action and keeps you turning page after page to see what happens next. Following the storyline of a club laced with sexual tension so string you can taste it. A kidnapping. A deceptive family member. Guns, shooting, torture, boat chases, car chases, sex. Seriously… this book has it all.
Watching Ty’s transformation in this book was enchanting. His immediate possessiveness and protectiveness were nothing short of swoon-worthy. But watching him fall in love and commit to his vulnerable side? WOW. *fans self*
I love the dialogue between the characters: sarcasm, vulnerability, strength, and protectiveness. Sybil manages to elicit all of the emotions and interactions with brilliance in her writing. Let us not forget the adorableness surrounding each and every mention of ASL. This is definitely a book that you should read!
And as always from my reviews, top quotes from the book:
“ ‘Say no to me.’ I growled, no longer strong enough to walk away from her.”
“Only her. This woman stole what was left of my sanity and turned it inside out.”
“Like I was replacing one addiction for another, and she was too damn good for that. She deserved more. She deserved someone whole.”

First of all I just have to say HO-LY SHIT! That was one crazy intense ride! Sybil knows how to keep me on my toes. This entire book had me on the edge of my seat. I literally bit all the nails off of the hand that wasn’t holding my kindle. Considering the last episode of GoT aired the day before I read this book that is saying a lot! All hail the queen of action packed books! Seriously this book was hands down her best yet. As far as the action goes I could totally see it being turned into one hell of an action flick! *clapping* Way to go Sybil, way to go!
As far as the love story of the book goes I’ll be honest, I didn’t see that coming. When we met Ty I’m sure I’m not the only one that had assumptions about him. He seemed very blood thirsty & a little unhinged. Then out of nowhere we find out he has a “son” that’s deaf. I mean what?! We’re left kind of scratching our heads & wondering wtf is up with this guy. Then we get Fearless & get to know Ty. Now I’m completely in love. It’s a story of redemption in a way. A man who is broken from the things he has done in the past but wants to be better. A woman who has been sheltered & coddled her whole life who wants the chance to think for herself & make her own decisions. These two polar opposite people find each other, fight for each other & almost die for each other (several times). Their differences don’t matter at the end of the day. All that matters is that they found what they were missing in themselves in each other. They found their other half & now they are both whole.
Every time I read another book by Sybil Bartel, I think she has written her best work. And every time I think I like the characters the best out of all of her works. But this time, it is true, on both counts. This story is action packed, full on Alpha, and entertaining. I consumed it in a matter of hours and was at a loss when I was done. I LOVED the characters of Ty and Ludeviene (I love her name) so much. Their story line is very interesting as it evolves and the plot moves seamlessly through out the book. Sybil does tough, angry, passionate, intense, ex-military Alpha males so well, you will long to read what makes them tick. This is yet another in the long list of excellent books by this amazing author. 5 Big Stars!
Fearless is Tyce and Ludeviene’s story. We got introduced to Ty in Merciless. He was one of the security guys essential to get Collin’s ex and son out from under the thumb of the Cartel.
Ty unknowingly started working for the cartel when he got out of the Marines. When everything went down in book 2, he got a second chance with Luna and Associates. However, that Cartel connection comes in handy when Ludeviene is kidnapped and Ty infiltrates from inside to save her.
This was pretty action packed from the start. Ty is completely fearless when he goes in alone to take out the Cartel. All to save a woman he has an instant connection with from the night before. The thought of her innocence being ruined by the Cartel has Ty going insane with the need to take them down and he shows it!
Ty is very hard core and has more demons than most. He thinks he isn’t good enough for Ludeviene which has him coming off as a jerk to her, but it really doesn’t take much for him to realize he just can’t stay away.
Ludeviene is shy, classy and just as innocent as you can get. She is just as drawn to Ty as he is to her. She’s pretty shocked by the trauma of being kidnapped and watching Ty kill without mercy to save her, but that won’t stop her from taking what she wants from him.
Sybil Bartel is the queen of writing military men. They are the baddest of the baddest and I love to see them in action. I highly recommend her books if you love the very dominant and very alpha heroes.
OMG – loved Ty’s story. He fell hard for her and it was wonderful how he stepped up to save her!!
It had my attention all the way through.
