New York Times bestselling author Katherine Center's The Bodyguard is unabashedly romantic, laugh-out-loud funny, and the perfect summer read.

The Bodyguard is absolutely, unequivocally delightful!--JODI PICOULT, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wish You Were Here

She's got his back. >He's got her heart. >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 >More Praise for The Bodyguard: >"Great rollicking fun! Prepare to laugh and swoon and grin your pants off." --Helen Hoang, New York Times bestselling author of The Heart Principle

I sit down with a Katherine Center novel the way many do in front of a favorite holiday meal: with salivating, wide-eyed anticipation. As always, Center's writing wallops readers with wisdom, wit, and a deep understanding of her dimensional characters. And The Bodyguard is pure, unvarnished delight. It sparkles bright with flirtation, banter, and the all-encompassing thrill of falling in love over a thousand tiny moments of connection. I closed this book with the biggest smile and the deepest, satisfied sigh. --Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of The Soulmate Equation
