Kolby

By: Bree Livingston

Narrated by: Liz Krane

A rich celebrity with a stalker, the bodyguard hired to protect her, and a plane crash that strands them in the Cascade Mountains.

Ivy Manning never expected her small advice column to turn into a national radio show. Over the last year, she's gone from blending in with the crowd to book tours and daytime show appearances. When a stalker starts threatening her, a bodyguard from the Guardian Group is hired - tall, blonde, and hotter than hot, Kolby Rutherford.

Becoming a bodyguard to a rich girl was an assignment Kolby never wanted. His past experience with the wealthy left a bad taste in his mouth, but after spending time with Ivy, his opinion is changing.

When a plane crash strands them in the mountains, they're forced to lean on each other for survival. Will he be able to keep his distance, or will Ivy weave her way into his heart?

A sweet protector romance

Ivy's rise to fame hasn't come without its fair share of problems. Her manager keeps pushing her to take on more assignments. But the stalker she's acquired makes it a bit challenging to feel safe.

That's Kolby's role... He's been hired to keep Ivy safe so she can continue to live her life as normally as possible. But in order to keep her safe, he can't get involved with her. Yet, living with her for much of the past year makes it a bit challenging not to care for her.

As Ivy and Kolby navigate their way through her appearances and commitments, the stalker is always at the forefront of his mind. But as Ivy breaks down his walls, he begins to realize that maybe the Guardian Group isn't the only family he has left.

I really enjoyed the different twists and turns of the story. I did guess the stalker's identity early on, and I had a difficult time with how hard Kolby was on himself. It was hard to reconcile the pain he still carried from his childhood with the strength it took for him to endure his time as a POW. But other than that, I found the interplay between Ivy and Kolby and their eventual role reversal to be entertaining and enjoyable.
