Six Swoon-Worthy Bodyguard Thrillers

Jack: With one look, she got my heart beating again

"If you get pregnant, however you want to deal, I'm all in. Understand?"
"Why are you so sweet?"
"I don't think I've ever been accused of that before. Admit it. You like me."
"I do, Jack." ...It's the other L word scaring the b'jezus out of me.


Slate:I liked my life just the way it was, uncomplicated.

"What's her name?"
"Who?"
"Your dog? Its name?"
"How the heck would I know? I call it Dog."
Well does Dog bite?"
"I don't think so. Didn't bite me."
"That's not funny, Mr. Slate."
"It's Slate, just Slate."

I told the agency I wanted a dog walker.
What did they send? A way too leggy, too d@mn pretty med student. I got no business letting her stay in my guesthouse, mere feet from my bedroom window.
When she finds evidence of foul play, I got no choice but to get close and put my stupid heart at risk.

Lucky: I was hired to protect a pair of priceless earrings.

Later, I find out she's got a much more dangerous secret. Off the charts insta-lust, she's hard to resist. However, no-can-do, not until I'm off the clock and an arms dealer is behind bars.


Boxed set includes Slate, In My Custody, Jack, Jack II, Lucky, and Lucky II

Warning: graphic language, no cheating, and stimulating, happily-ever-afters!

Nice hot read. Plot twist threw me...not one I expected! Definitely worth the read!

    Oh yeah, this collection really has it all.
    Slate
    What a truly fun and exciting story. Slate and Lilac were such great characters with painful past experiences that needed to be addressed. Their chemistry together was sizzling, and of course that needed to be addressed also. Throw in a murder and plenty of danger, and the end result was a very satisfying read on so many levels.
    In My Custody
    Man oh Man. I really LOVED this one. It was fun, full of witty banter and quirky moments, suspense, steam--all things that make for a wonderful read. OCD Andy and beautiful, sassy Sienna were so mismatched that they made the perfect couple.
    Jack
    I had been waiting impatiently for Jack's story, and I was not disappointed. Jack was a very special guy, with a difficult past, but Blakely, also with a difficult past, ended up being perfect for him. The story had drama, misunderstandings, action and scintillating heat. What a really great read.
    As you noticed I really enjoyed these books. I volunteered to review arcs of them. I loved them so much that I had to buy them. Don't miss them. Anything by Stella Marie Alden is sure to be good.

    I purchased this boxed set almost a year ago and it’s been sitting in my unread library all this time. If I had only known what I was missing! If you love great alphas and their women, you will love this series as well. It’s filled with alpha hotness, intrigue, suspense and of course, hotness overload. Stella writes great characters that are relatable. Her writing is smooth and flows so well. IMO a truly gifted author can have you laughing, crying and then fanning yourself due to the characters smokin love scenes all within the same chapter. This is Stella alden’s writing style in a nutshell. She is one of the best. A definite one-click.

    So funny enough, I complained already about not using the AI Jason all along and what do you know…they used him.
    Lucky and friends find themselves in all sorts of problems and have to come together to solve all.
    This one definitely has some tear jerking moments. Like all the others in the series, I recommend.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Series
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 10, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    I have read other books of Stella Marie Alden and knew I would not be disappointed in reading this series. All three books were brilliant. They all are love stories but with excitement and intrigue, romance and hot sex. All the stories are individual but they do have some of the same characters popping in and out which then leads onto their own story in the next book. I would give it 10/10 if I could. Couldn't put them down. Now that I have finished this value for money box set I'm away to read Jack II.
    Updated 8/8/20: I originally bought this box set when it was the 1st three books and I thought it was good value then, now I would say if your interested in this series this is an excellent buy. All six books in this series are brilliant and you will enjoy reading them especially if you are a fan of the author. I highly recommend this excellent series.

    A very well written series. A diverse range of characters that interconnect very well. I liked how Slade and Lilac, Andrew and Sienna, Jack and Blake and Lochlan and Callie came together. The whirlwind romance, the ups and down, the thrills, the fun, the excitement, the danger, tested each and everyone of them, the lengths these men go to, to protect themselves and the women they love. And the women themselves, who like to flirt with danger, show that there is nothing wrong with being independent, claiming there own strength and resilience, determined to fight for the men they love and hold onto them at all costs. And a big shout out to all there happily ever afters, they are the absolute best! And those love scenes in and out of the bedroom were deliciously wicked, dirty, hot, wet, wild, passionate, steamy, flirty, funny and a whole lot of love!
