Enters Blake, a cool hero with something to prove to his boss (and himself).

Okay, one thing first, I'm a romance reader junkie and I've devoured too many FBI/security guards romance novels to count. This is the only book that I can remember (I'm writing this at 2 in the morning so I MIGHT be wrong about this) that felt realistic with regards to the potential breach of ethics or of work policies that takes place when someone in law enforcement or in security starts something with a client he is supposed to protect. In a lot of novels the hero just jumps into bed with the heroine and everyone, including his supervisors, are completely fine with that. Not this one. GUARDING SIERRA is as realistic as it comes while still managing to hold on to the romance. My first book by this author was a Christmas Novella and I felt that since it was sold a standalone, it lacked romance the cover made me expect. This one delivered. It had heat and sweetness. I would have liked a bit more romance a bit earlier on but I don't think it would have fit with the (hesistant) personality of the characters and thus wouldn't have been organic.

Skip this one if you really want a lot of cutesy moments. Definitely buy if you want a well written, mysterious suspense romance with a very cool break in/hacking action scene, good dialogue, and real and complex characters.
