About this deal
I’m honestly not sure why I even bothered finishing this… once I got to the end, I realized that I wished I DNFd it at around the 30-40% when I realized I wasn’t enjoying it… but oh well - I somehow made it to the end. Briar is not as she first seems, and definitely not the bully the media portrays her as, and the journey to the guys discovering that is at times annoying but definitely worth it, and her sass is unmatched. my three ex-military bodyguards:Glen, the Scottish sweetheart with the scarred face and gentle hands.
When a trip to America sends the guys’ protective instincts into overdrive, the sizzling tension between us finally breaks, and I learn my bodyguards’ butterfly-inducing secret: they want me. I didn’t like how she was the sexual aggressor with all the men… and it made me feel icky that she was so casual about it… I also didn’t like that she was sexually intimate with one and then coming on to the other without them knowing about it. Each of the male characters are so well developed that you could feel Matt’s guilt as he struggled with PTSD and flashbacks from serving in the military, the emotional discomfort Glenn had because of visible scars on his face, and Kenta’s need to help and protect the people he loves.She’s also being stalked and has panic attacks, providing more than one instance where she reacts with a reasonable amount of trauma or fear and just comes across like a bitch. If you're looking for an easy and steamy read and don't mind reverse harem, then I recommend you read this.
I feel like the plot was all over the place and one of the guys barely got any pov’s so I feel that we didn’t really get to know him like the others.So make sure you have plenty of time to devote to this story so you won’t end up reading until the wee hours of the morning and having a book hangover like I did! I liked the book from the very first page, but I really got hooked on the scene where Briar meets the MMCs. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what she puts out next, and I promise you, I definitely will be watching for it.

But many stories tend to start with a strong but traumatised FMC, but by the end of the story all of the focus is on the MMC and his hurt and trauma. I know that people often think of romance novels as being “porn for women” or not worthy of serious praise, but this book blows all of those stereotypes out of the water.
