Description
The heiress… She’d wanted him since she was
eighteen. Four years away hasn’t cooled the heat Doyle arouses in her, which
means it’s time for Thea to take the former Marine by the horns and open his
eyes to everything he’s missing. What will it take to prove that she’s not some
untouchable porcelain doll, but a red-blooded woman determined to finally get her
man? The bodyguard… Honor forced Doyle to consider Thea off-limits. Keeping her
that way was proving much more difficult. Every time he turns around she’s
there, wreaking havoc on his senses, making him think about long, sweaty nights
and how good she would feel wrapped up in his arms. How long could a man be
expected to ignore the woman who calls to his every secret desire? The danger…
But Doyle has a secret that could jeopardize not only the first fragile bonds
of love, but Thea’s very life. Will he be able to act before it’s too late for
them both?

Advance Praise
“If you like a fast paced and action packed
romantic suspense story, then look no further, What the Lady Wants is the book
for you!”
“This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I stumbled on a
gem! The romance is sweet and slow with some bumps along the way that add spice
and zing to the plot. It was a great story to curl up under the covers and get
lost in!”
“I give this debut novel 5 SHINY STARS because there are few books
that I consider reading more than once, and this is one of them. If you like
fast-paced, smart, and sexy, WHAT THE LADY WANTS is a great choice. I can’t
wait for the next in the series!”
“Definitely a book that I recommend to every
reader in love with a novel with a pinch of fairy tales, but in which the
heroine decides herself for her own future.”
“What the Lady Wants is a
delicious page-turner: romantic, suspenseful, sexy, and emotion-packed.
Altogether a fun read.”
“I was immediately drawn into the story by the main
characters…and the way the suspense was carefully woven into the story, made it
seem realistic and kept me guessing until the end. Nika Rhone is a new author
that I’ll definitely be adding to my TBR list.”

I received this book via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
This is my first read by author Nika Rhone. I have read a few storylines about the bodyguard and the assignment but this story was different. There were a vast array of emotions, drama, heartache, suspense, and laughter throughout the book. Thea and (Brennan) Doyle’s relationship is on that was forbidden, not only because she was his job but because there was 12 years age difference. Once Thea became a woman she decided to act on her feelings for Doyle. The twists and turns it takes to get Doyle to recognize Thea are hilarious and once they finally get together their chemistry jumps off the pages. I loved how Thea and Doyle communicated honestly and at times I found myself laughing out loud. I recommend this intriguing read as it is not like all of the other Bodyguard storylines.

Can't wait for Book 2 in this series!!! That's how good this first book is.
The fun the three friends have and their love for each other is hopefully the tie throughout this series.
No spoiler, but I didn't guess who the stalker was until close to the end........a nice couple of diversions along the way. Well written.

I received a free copy of this from NetGalley in exchange for an independent review.
A romantic, suspense novel which delivers plenty of romance and action. . Well written, great characters, some steamy scenes. The developing relationship between Doyle and Thea is slow burning but very credible. Really enjoyed this and would definitely read the next book in the series
