Description

Holly Yee’s life is shattered when she witnesses the murder of her ex, forcing her into hiding from mobsters who want her eliminated. Pregnant and now under the protection of bodyguard and former Navy SEAL Kenton Price, she’s going a little stir crazy in his apartment. Holly’s always been a woman of action and sitting on the sidelines while the investigation takes place really isn’t her thing. Former jocks aren’t really her thing either, but there’s something about Ken that is different from the other men she’s known. Something hot. And sexy. And…special. Most of all, she feels safe—until the mob targets Ken, putting both their lives in danger.

Despite the threat to himself, Ken’s priority is protecting Holly and her unborn baby. In a short time, she’s become important to him. Too important. His professional resolve to not become involved with a client is testing him in a big way. Holly is as smart as she is gorgeous and he can’t stop himself from being attracted to her. That’s as far as it can go. She’s going to be a mom and one thing he won’t do is break a little kid’s heart when their relationship ultimately ends. He learned that hard lesson as a kid. Despite his resolve to keep his distance, ultimately he can’t resist her. He tells himself—and her—it’s just a fling. Too bad his heart isn’t listening…

Protecting His Pregnant Partner (Aegis Security #3) by Leslie North
Genre: General Fiction (Adult) | Romance
Publication Date: May 6, 2021

Protecting His Pregnant Partner is the third book in the Aegis Security series by Leslie North. I loved the first two books and this one was even better!

I loved how the two main characters are actively involved in the crime solving mystery. It was fun getting to uncover the why for the whole series. I loved the chemistry between Holly & Ken. They were so much fun to read about, I couldn't help smiling to myself. Also, the steamy romance was something else!

I loved how fast paced this was! I couldn't put the book down in read it in one evening! I really loved this series and am secretly hoping there will be future books involving Aegis Security! I'm not ready for this group to leave my life! I would definitely recommend reading this whole series because it is a lot of fun, with great suspense, including edge of your seat drama, hot former Navy SEALS, and lots of steamy goodness!

I'm so grateful to Leslie North, the publisher, and NetGalley for providing me with a free copy of this ARC ebook in exchange for my honest review.

Of the three books in this series, Protecting His Pregnant Partner, is my favorite. I think it's because Holly is involved in solving the murder and who's after them. We get more involved in the outcome this way. Holly is a force of nature. Ken didn't stand a chance. She didn't even have to flirt, just be herself.

Leslie North was a new author for me, and Protecting His Pregnant Partner is the third book in the Aegis Security Book series. Although I hadn't read the previous two books, this book most definitely can be read as a stand alone book. I loved the chemistry between Ken and Holly, this former Navy Seal has finally met his match. I will be going back to read the previous books in the series. I most definitely would recommend this great read to everyone.

I received a ARC from NetGalley and the publisher, and this is my fair and honest review.

A fantastic end to this 3 book series. I was hooked from the first book and couldn't wait to read the rest. The storyline in this one was definitely my favourite. can't wait to see what Leslie comes out with next.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this series and this last book was just as wonderful.
Former Navy SEAL and now part owner of Aegis Security Kenton Price has become the protector and bodyguard of pregnant Holly Yee. Holly and her two best friends witnessed the murder of Holly’s ex-boyfriend and now the mob is after them .
But spending time in close quarters is starting to get difficult. These opposites are starting to develop an attraction, but getting involved with a client is a no no. His past also affects his determination to stay away from any involvement.
As the danger intensifies, will feelings continue to be put aside ?
This last story was just as great as the other two making this series one worth your time.
I was entrusted a copy of this book by Netgalley. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

North is an excellent author. This book is great. Holly, The heroine, is an investigative reporter who witnessed a mob hit. Kenton is an ex-seal. The chemistry between them is amazing at they search for the truth. The interactions between secondary characters is touching and humorous. I highly recommend this book.

I love, love, love security/protector books! Aegis Security has become one of my favourites.
Holly and Ken meet when her ex is murdered. She is pregnant and requires 24/7 security. The writing is smooth, Holly is a secure, independent heroine and Ken is her perfect foil. The fact that they are able to investigate the crime together, instead of Holly being presented as a helpless woman, is a great part of the book.
Peripheral characters (that I hope are going to show up in more books featuring Aegis) are scattered throughout the book, and there is just enough steamy scenes to keep it romantically interesting as well.
Thank you for providing me with this free ARC for my honest review.
