Book Review: Surly Santa Bodyguard
This big, bad Santa has a job to do, and he ain’t happy.
Ex-Army Sargeant Wolf Kincayde has agreed to play bodyguard to a spoiled brat for reasons of his own. Babysitting the daughter of one of Wyoming’s sleaziest drug dealers sucks, but cash is king, and he’s not exactly a fan of the holidays, anyhow. Too bad this mouthy beauty with her blonde curls and bangin’ little body is driving him around the bend. But that bend is heaped with impassible drifts of snow, and he’s screwed. Trapped in his mountain lair with the tormentress, it’s looking like the forecast is calling for cold showers as icy as the weather outside...
She was snatched out of her bed Christmas week, and she’s livid.
Violet Smithson is hitting the books hard. Foregoing fun and games to earn her degree as a lab tech, she’s determined to join in the cure to eradicate the disease that took her mom. Living in her criminal father’s house is a daily source of angst, but until she’s hirable, she’s got nowhere to go. As if things weren’t tough enough, now she has to figure out how to escape from the broody beast who’s holding her captive and sabotaging her studies. Or wait… Maybe this surly alpha Grinch she’s been age-gap crushing on for months just needs a few lessons in Yuletide cheer...
Forced proximity, a cozy cabin, just one bed, and torrid passions come gift-wrapped with a bow…
My Review
Wolf fits his name. His presence fills the whole room. He gave off the grumpy, bodyguard vibes. Violet sure got more than she bargained for when Wolf called her bluff and did more than just "kiss" her injured ankle. Once she awakened Wolf's internal desires, there was no turning back.
The way that Wolf touched Violet....um yes. From there, Violet and Wolf could not keep their hands off each other. There were a few more quick and spicy scenes.
This is one quick and spicy read. I also found myself laughing several times. Looking for something "naughty" to read, you will want to treat yourself to this novella. It will even make Santa blush!
