BOOK OF THE DAY: Her Honor's Bodyguard by Johnny Ray

by Johnny Ray




BOOK DESCRIPTION
Do first loves ever really die? While reunions can take many forms, there is always one question that has to be answered sooner or later—what happened?

Vance had always been extremely proud of Noella, and just because his life had been ruined, he saw no reason why she had to have the same faith. When his dad died, leaving him and his mother penniless, he dropped out of law school and ended his relationship with Noella, but in doing so, he stopped a scandal that could have ruined her family. These secrets he would never let her know. Ironically, years later, he would have never guessed she would be instrumental in ruining his career with the Tampa police force.

After Noella finished law school and started pursuing her goal of working up the ranks in judgeships, she never considered inviting another guy into her life. As such, when someone attempts to threaten her into vacating her seat on the bench, and by force if necessary, she knows of no one else she really trust as much as Vance, who now has a successful bodyguard and private detective business.

She knows that Vance might hate her for her part in having him dismissed from the police force, but what he will never know is that she actually saved him from going to prison. Additionally, she now thinks he was framed, and perhaps by the same people who are threatening her. She had to talk him into taking her on as a client . . . but would he agree to her request?

As the number of attacks on her life increases, Vance soon has no choice but to offer her his protection, and in spite of everything, when they see each other again their old attraction for each other returns. She wants the truth. He wants the truth. However, making the ultimate sacrifice is not always easy to understand, whether given or received. Ultimately . . . could they now trust each other with these secrets? While their lives depend on discovering the truth to their past, these truths are locked in deep secrets that could also destroy them

Her Honor's Bodyguard is a fast paced romantic thriller that moves so fast you'll find the hours flying by while you race along with the tight plot. Noella is a judge who is being threatened. She turns to Vance, a former lover who is now a private investigator. He knew Noella in law school, but had to abandon the law after his father's suicide left him and his mother penniless and disgraced. After law school, Vance joined the police force, but not for long. He was forced out of the police after accusations of using excessive force. Before you can catch your breath there are two separate assassination attempts on Noella, and Vance's calm head and steady gun hand save the day. Twists and turns abound and Noella may hold the key to a secret that could have kept Vance on the force. That same secret may be why Noella is now the target of ruthless killers. And Noella has another secret, that she may still be in love with Vance. Johnny Ray keeps the plot very tight, with each scene building on the scene before, which creates a momentum that barrels ahead, consuming everything in its wake. If you like romance, and if you like thrillers, you are going to love this romantic thriller.
