Author's note read by the author.
New York Times bestselling author Katherine Center's The Bodyguard is unabashedly romantic, laugh-out-loud funny, and the perfect summer story.
She’s got his back.
Hannah Brooks looks more like a kindergarten teacher than somebody who could kill you with a wine bottle opener. Or a ballpoint pen. Or a dinner napkin. But the truth is, she’s an Executive Protection Agent (aka "bodyguard"), and she just got hired to protect superstar actor Jack Stapleton from his middle-aged, corgi-breeding stalker.
He’s got her heart.
Jack Stapleton’s a household name—captured by paparazzi on beaches the world over, famous for, among other things, rising out of the waves in all manner of clingy board shorts and glistening like a Roman deity. But a few years back, in the wake of a family tragedy, he dropped from the public eye and went off the grid.
They’ve got a secret.
When Jack’s mom gets sick, he comes home to the family’s Texas ranch to help out. Only one catch: He doesn’t want his family to know about his stalker. Or the bodyguard thing. And so Hannah—against her will and her better judgment—finds herself pretending to be Jack’s girlfriend as a cover. Even though her ex, like a jerk, says no one will believe it.
What could possibly go wrong???
Hannah hardly believes it, herself. But the more time she spends with Jack, the more real it all starts to seem. And there lies the heartbreak. Because it’s easy for Hannah to protect Jack. But protecting her own, long-neglected heart? That’s the hardest thing she’s ever done.

Very enjoyable and uplifting
This is my first Katherine Center book, it won't be my last. I am going to boldly ask you to disregard all the negative reviews, like the plot not being very credible, and listen to it. For one thing, the author makes the plot very credible against all odds. Secondly, there are no cringe moments, unfortunate misunderstandings between characters which make you want to scream "come on, go talk to him/her and explain already, it's not that complicated!" This is a story about smart, positive, honest people who grow on you. But most importantly, the story is told with such wit! I laughed so hard so many times in this book. and not because there was a joke or anything. Some of the thoughts that went through the main character's mind were so unusual but relatable. I mean I had to stop and repeat what was said in order to savor it. I plan to read this book again just to enjoy Katherine Center's story-telling. And the narrator is impeccable.
