I loved everything about this story and how it developed, how easy the flow was and the plot-line was great too. I loved everything about this story, especially when it came to the chemistry and intensity of the main characters, Gabe and Skylar 😉
Of course, there are some obstacles needed to overcome, some secrets revealed/discovered, some angst, steamy moments, some funny moments, some more angst, and at the end, a happy ending for Gabe and Skylar <3 <3

This is full emotion action plus some twists along the way. I definitely recommend Its a must read, I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy
I loved this story. There is so much going on so it’s entertaining and enjoyable for the most part. There are definitely times where you want to smack one or more of the characters upside their head but you get through it. The characters are interesting and likable for the most part. There are plenty of feels and you definitely feel them! Skye was wonderful, determined, and stubborn. She had a lot on her plate and wasn’t prepared when her boss decided to send Gabe to keep an eye on her. Gabe was sweet, strong, and stoic. He wasn’t expecting Skye and she throws him for a loop while making a huge impression on him. Gabe wants to help Skye and keep her safe but he has to get around Skye’s determination to do everything on her own. When she finally accepts his help they get closer and closer. Skye is adamant that what she has with Gabe is just casual but Gabe knows that it’s more and secretly so does Skye! Gabe was so amazing, dealing with Skye’s venting and continuing to help her even when she pushed him away. Skye and Gabe were a great couple. Their happy ever after had me laughing and smiling. I recommend reading this book. Listening to it through Audible is also awesome. The narrators were great. Enjoy!
It’s a lot I would like to say about this amazing book but I don’t want to give any plot points away, So this review isn’t going to go into anymore than this. I did enjoy the complex characters with feeling overwhelmed, distraught, heartbroken, betrayed and/or abandoned.
Skylar Szabo and Gabe Barin world collided with explosive emotions when Gabe is assigned as her bodyguard after a threat to her for seeking information on her abducted niece. Skylar military training and past trust issues becomes a problem for Gabe.
Gabe Barin, a southern gentleman with an amazing history as a mercenary after exiting the Army was asked to protect an employee. He didn’t encounter to meet a feisty, challenging and totally interesting woman in Skylar. He became the intelligent anchor that kept Skylar afloat from the villain blindsided tricks. I just loved this man protective actions not only toward Skylar but her family as well.
The story was engaging and contains an exceptional twist that had me thinking OMG! Overall, I truly enjoyed reading this amazing story and encouraged others to read it.
Great story. I really enjoyed Skylar & Gabe’s story. Skylar & Gabe were a perfect fit and their chemistry was scorching hot. Reading the story I kinda knew what was going too happen but still so into their story that I couldn’t stop reading.
“It’s a helpless, awful feeling to realize how alone you are. Never bothered me much before. Guess I always believe you gotta be the kind of person who don’t mind being alone with, and I’ve always been good with my own company. Don’t know why it’s not enough, all of a sudden. Must be because that little wildcat looked right through me like I wasn’t there, like I was just a phantom, and showed me there’s no one in my life who needs me at all.” – Nicole Snow, Still Not Into You.
First off, I must confess that I set aside Gabe and Skylar’s story after reading that passage. For two weeks I found myself looking for light-hearted stories, knowing that I needed to step back from a trigger that Nicole Snow unintentionally brought to life within me in those few words.
Dear reader, I was Gabe at one time. I didn’t mind being alone, thinking that I was better being by myself than associating with the outside world. I was not part of the “in” crowd, I was shy and quiet even among the few people who considered me their friend. My nose was perpetually buried in books. I was the quintessential introvert, albeit one who my peers run too then, because they knew they could count on me for anything. This all changed one day when it was I who needed help—and met the brick wall of indifference.
Like Gabe, that moment of hate became my strength. I refused to back down, I told myself I mattered, and fought to be recognized, to be heard. This time, like Skylar, I developed a thick hide. I found myself again, bigger, better, and though still alone, at peace.
Well. Nicole Snow has become one of my go-to authors, one of a few I keep, because her stories resonate in my soul and I always feel like I am walking in her character’s footsteps.
Gabe and Skylar’s story will take you on a rollercoaster of emotions: frustration at Skylar’s stubborn need to look for her niece on her own, anger at her for fighting Gabe when he only wanted to help, sadness for Gabe’s need to belong, affection for when he puts his thoughts to paper; anxiety when both were faced with danger, and, above all, relief, happiness and love for these two broken souls when everything was done and gone.
Another plus for me was the consistency of Nicole Snow’s writing style: descriptive without being too flowery, her words took me through the story without the abrupt bumps and stops I sometimes encounter in romantic action/suspense stories. Her words flowed so well, in fact, that I wish—I dearly wish—to see Gabe and Skylar’s story converted into an audiobook, for me to swoon over and over again.
So dear reader, go ahead and pick up Still Not into You. Better, get the whole Enguard Series. I promise you won’t regret it!
Absolutely adored Gabe and Skylar.
Their storyline was wonderful.
Great series of books
Great read. Nicole Snow does it again! This is a must add to your reading list.
It’s raw, emotional and brings you to the edge of your seat. The story is catching and well developed with amazing characters.

Still not into you by Nicole Snow a five-star read that will astound you. What a story, I adored reading about Pixie and her man mountain protector. Skylar ‘Sunbeam’ Szabo is a woman who many would run from a fight with, but someone out there doesn’t seem as scared and is out to get her, she doesn’t need a protector but when her boss gets his buddy man mountain Gabe Barin to watch her back and help out the drama starts, as well as the entertainment. This was a great story and the passion is felt from all of the characters, when the baddie is revealed will you know who it was? The red herrings and plot twists really keep you on the edge of your seat. Brilliant story and so well written.
Another Fabulous Story by Nicole Snow. 5*****

I loved this story and fell completely in love with Gabe and Skylar. If you read any of my other reviews of Nicole’s books I’m sure that I sound like a broken record. I have read all of her books, some several times over and haven’t found one that I didn’t like. Nicole Snow has the amazing ability to bring her characters to life as you read their story. Most of them will rip your heart to shreds and make you cry because you feel like you are living the story that you are reading. She makes you feel the hurt, betrayal, mystery, hope and love her characters are feeling. She restores your broken heart as her characters come together.
Gabe is a true southern gentleman, big as a mountain with a soft heart. He is ex-Army and when a friend calls him for a protection gig he is there and ready to go. He’s been warned about the sharp clawed vixen from his friend Landon, who is Skylar’s boss. She chews up men and spits them out. When Gabe first sees her he is completely enamored by her tiny stature and the way that she carries herself with a huge presence and owns the space around her. Skylar notices him also but she’s not interested (yet) and she has a very important job to finish. She is ex-Navy Intelligence and isn’t impressed with his southern charm. She hates nicknames, her boss calls her Pixie. Do not call her Ma’am or Darlin’, ever. Gabe settles on ‘Sunbeam’ and keeps it to himself for awhile. He carries a notebook and writes in it everyday, my heart hurt when I read why. Skylar has walls built up around her heart for protection. She was the pawn in a cruel joke in High School and has trust issues still. She is pretty mean to Gabe at times and he takes it in stride. Slowly these two come together as they search for clues to find a missing person.
I want to write so much more but I don’t want to give the story away by spoilers. If you are reading reviews trying to decide if you want to read this book, then yes, please get the book and fall in love with Gabe and Skylar. You won’t be disappointed. I voluntarily read a ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
I simply adored Gabe. He was a saint in my eyes. Sky was hard to like. I tried to understand where she was coming from and up to a point I did but she is one angry gal. She couldn’t just be for once and let someone help. She just seems to make everything worse because she’s so angry, she can’t think straight.
Skylar’s niece is missing, her boss assigns Gabe to protect her. They both have a lot of issues to overcome and a lot of baggage. This is an emotional rollercoaster that leaves the reader wrung out but satisfied in the end.
I was given this book to read in exchange for a review. Wow! So this was my first time reading a book by Nicole Snow – and I am so, so impressed. The scenes are so graphic and vividly detailed that you get so drawn into her storyline. Sky & Gabe were just so badly NEEDING EACH OTHER – that they were perfect for each other. Shame, he is such a sweet teddy bear. The twists, drama and suspense were unexpected and it was excellent – I really enjoyed it.

Skylar and Gabe were fantastic! I fell in love with them from the beginning. The chemistry between these two was hot and so we’re their steamy moments. Along with the sexy stuff was some drama, suspense, and twists. This was well written and I didn’t want to put it down. I would definitely recommend reading this one.
*I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book. This is my honest review.*
I volunteered to read this ARC for an honest review. Loved this story about Skyler and Gabe. She’s a ex Navy intelligence officer and he’s ex Army. Sky’s niece was kidnapped and she is trying to track down Herman, the baby’s dad, whom she believes took her. Then one night someone vandalized get car with a message about backing off the search. Her boss Landon asks his buddy Gabe to be her bodyguard. There is a tension between the two both sexual and physical. She doesn’t want a babysitter and is ticked to be weighed down. Gabe has his demons to but there is something about Sky that calls to him. They use each other to release stress but it turns into more than that. When the leads they have falter, and their main suspect had an alibi, they are forced to start over again. Watch as they grow closer and develop feelings for the other, but fight it. Great characters and storyline. There is a great mystery that is solved when everyone is reunited safe and only slightly injured.
