Someone's after his little boy. She has one chance to save them both. When his young son is nearly kidnapped, assistant district attorney Colton Gale needs a Christmas refuge--and a live-in bodyguard. Though former military police officer Jasmine McNeal fights to shield them 24/7, she refuses to get attached. But growing close to the little boy and his father might be her only shot at keeping them alive--and becoming a family beyond the holidays.
Bodyguard for Christmas by Carol J. Post is the third book in her Murphy, NC series of inspirational suspense romance books. And right from the beginning, readers are drawn into Colton and Jasmine's story. The author has written a plot that crackles with energy and tells an entertaining and suspenseful story--a fast-paced story that keeps the reader on the edge of the seat wondering how things are going to turn out. Along with the suspense and romance, the author has woven a subtle thread of faith that reminds readers that faith in God brings comfort and protection. The characters are intense, realistic, evocative. Jasmine, bodyguard extraordinaire, and yet searching for that all-elusive peace of mind and heart. She was expecting a typical assignment when assigned to Colton and his young son. But she found a whole lot more than typical. Colton, newly widowed, is making an unanticipated move. Would it bring a sense of belonging or just be an uncertain future, hiding from those who wanted him dead? You definitely are rooting for the good guys to catch the bad guys (and who are the bad guys anyway!) and to catch them in time! If you love exciting and suspenseful mysteries with lots of twists to the plot, Bodyguard for Christmas will keep you reading until the very last page.
