Rules of Protection

Tangled in Texas, Book 1

By: Alison Bliss

Narrated by: Mackenzie Cartwright

It's rule-breaker Emily Foster's birthday, and like everyone at The Jungle Room, she just wants to get some action. Unfortunately she stumbles on the wrong kind, witnessing a mob hit. To protect her, she's entered into the Witness Protection Program with by-the-book Special Agent Jake Ward as her chaperone.

When the location of their safe house is compromised, Jake stashes Emily deep in the Texas backwoods. The city-girl might be safe from the Mafia, but she has to contend with a psychotic rooster, a narcoleptic dog, crazy cowboys, and the danger of losing her heart to the one man she can't have.

Jake's as hot as he is infuriating, and she can't help but push all his buttons to loosen him up. Their mutual, sizzling sexual attraction poses a dilemma: Jake's determined to keep her safe and out of the wrong hands; she's determined to get into the right ones - his.

Critic reviews

"[A] laugh-out-loud romantic comedy with a dash of suspense mixed in!" ( Aestas Book Blog)

Great story... great characters.

Kept me interested from page 1 right through the epilogue. And six more words because Amazon needs more BS.

High hopes

The hero man handled the heroine, consent was not clear in some situations. Controlling alpha douche all in the guise of “protecting” her. I had high hopes for the story, but it fell flat.

I love I give it five stars

Makes you laugh makes you cry it is a really really good luck you need this

First and last hour are the best

This was okay...The first and last hour were the best. The in between just seemed to drag on...There was not enough happening to hold my attention fully.

Frustrating

There was a lot of funny dialogue but the heroine allowing the continued verbal abuse by hero without calling it out and blaming herself became frustrating. I enjoy good verbal barbs when they are clever and equal. But constantly calling someone stupid without remorse is abuse.
