Reviews for The Bodyguard and the Heiress

[scoutmomskf · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Very good book. The second Hinton heir has been found. Charlotte is well aware of who her father is and has no interest in claiming any part of his estate. She resents the way he abandoned her and her mother, breaking her mother's heart. Charlotte grew up determined that no man would have that kind of power over her.I liked Charlotte from the beginning. She works in construction and has the respect of the men who work for her. She is independent and confident in who she is. When Jace appears to give her the news, she doesn't exactly jump for joy. It was fun to watch her push back against his plans and insist on doing things her way.I liked Jace in the previous book (Cinderella's Billion-Dollar Christmas). He's steady and able to handle any crisis. I had to laugh at his confusion over Charlotte's reaction to the news of her possible inheritance. He is just as determined as Charlotte, and their back-and-forth over the issue was fun to watch.Underneath the sparks of antagonism are sparks of another kind. Neither Jace nor Charlotte welcomes the flare of attraction. Jace was burned in the past. First, he was betrayed by his wife, making it difficult for him to trust. Then he made a mistake with a client that makes him even more determined to keep his distance from Charlotte. Meanwhile, Charlotte wants nothing to do with a man who has such a close connection to her father.I enjoyed seeing their relationship develop. As her bodyguard, Jace is with Charlotte 24/7. It doesn't take long for them to discover how much they have in common. I loved watching them bond over mac and cheese, and Charlotte's look at what his job entails. The scene with Seth Simon was hilarious. The feelings between them grow, and I ached for both of them as they struggled with what to do. Things looked quite promising during the trip to Scotland, but an unexpected twist sent Charlotte fleeing back home. I liked the kick in the pants that gave Jace the motivation he needed to go after her. I loved his big moment at the end. It was both romantic and fun.The scenes in Scotland and the epilogue were a great lead-in to the final book in the trilogy. I did not expect that revelation and can't wait to see how it turns out.
