Kat Bailey is sort of being stalked - her ex cheated on her and she's being blamed by some of his rather more obsessive fans. She tries to hire a bodyguard, Luke Indigo, but the second he sees her he gets a raging hard-on and decides that he can't do it, so he passes her on to another company who ultimately fails to protect her. Shaken, Kat decides to escape the limelight and head for a cabin in Tahoe. Luke feels guilty about what almost happened to her and follows her to Tahoe, establishing security around her and acting like her bodyguard. In order to get close enough though, he has to befriend her...and it isn't long before they're in bed together. But how is Kat going to feel when she realizes that Luke has been lying to her?
This was like one of those horror movies where you see the villain coming and you're practically screaming at the character to get out of the house.... Well in this case, we can see Luke's lies building and about to rise up to smack him the face and knee him in the balls. But no matter how much I yelled at my Kindle, he just wouldn't break down and tell her the truth. And so, predictably, on the morning that Luke is about to reveal all, Kat discovers the truth from another source. And more predictability ensues. Don't get me wrong, this is a fairly sexy little romp in the woods. It's fluffy and the characters are pretty likeable and there's a heavy dose of insta-lust. It's an enjoyable read, but also very predictable.
