This review is from: Dangerous Intentions (Paperback)
For the second time in her life, magazine editor Kiley Chapman is experiencing excruciating fear. After being kidnapped and terrorized 10 years ago, she had promised herself that she'd never be put into that position again, so she's reacting to threatening phone calls by stubbornly refusing to admit that they could actually mean something. While her uncle is busily trying to get her to accept a bodyguard, she is busy at the magazine, working on an article on a real life hero. She advertises for a real life hero, and is amazed by several of the responses she gets. These guys couldn't be for real. While interviewing one of her hero possibilities, the situations turns ugly-and the moment is saved when Scott Danger, another candidate for the hero article, barges in and saves Kiley from the aggressive applicant. She's stunned by his awesome physical appearance, and also by his macho, sexy demeanor. Could he really be the hero she's looking for?
Scott Danger, Security Specialist, accepts this one last assignment to be a bodyguard to Kiley Chapman because it means so much to his boss. But there's a catch that her uncle reveals-he must get Kiley to accept him into her life without letting her know that he is actually her bodyguard. He knows there will be no problem when he hears about the hero contest-he's done some incredible feats in his lifetime, so he can get her to accept him without revealing his true occupation. And when he meets Kiley, he is stunned and instantly drawn to her in a way he has no desire to be drawn to any woman. He pushes her into accepting a dinner invitation with him, and when the evening ends in the discovery that her best friend and assistant has been brutally attacked, Scott decides he's not leaving this pretty lady's side for anything. He's certain that the attack was meant as a sign to Kiley...a sign that she's going to be next.
Kiley fights the need for a protector, and when she finds out that Scott is actually a bodyguard hired by her uncle, she is furious and demands that he be let go. But is she really making the right choice? Not only is she sure that someone is out to get her, but she's also sure that the something she feels when Scott is around is something she doesn't want to let go. The battle of wills between the two, and the sparks they send flying, are a wonder to read about. They light a fire in the pages, making you zoom to the next page.
This is my first Denise Agnew book, and I can assure you it won't be my last. With hot, zippy writing, she makes the story fly by, and you're waiting with baited breath to see what's going to happen next. While we actually know who done it, Ms. Agnew weaves a level of suspense that will have you guessing, and a truly wonderful romance together splendidly. The big, sexy Scott is the perfect match for the spunky, independent Kiley, and she introduces a crew of characters that I can't wait to read more about. What an exceptional read!
