Focus is the tenth book in the Guarding Her series by Anna
Brooks. I haven’t read all the books in the series but the ones I have read, I
have had no problems following along. The book was short, fast-paced, and
easily read in one day.
It started off with Exie, a Hollywood star, getting
kidnapped right away and the suspense keeps ongoing until the end. Callan “Bear” was the brother of her
childhood best friend who had been kidnapped as a teenager. He works for Royal Ace Securities and
specializes in K&R and as her best friend has tried to convince her she
needs a bodyguard. After she gets
kidnapped, Bear is on the case determined to find her. Coincident between Exie and his sister’s
kidnapping are similar and start to lead him on a path to solve both cases.
I loved how he was protective of Exie but also supportive of
her. This was a wonderful, slow burn,
friend to lover romance. I loved the intrigue and
the charming characters. I look forward to future books in
the series.
I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review. All
thoughts and opinions are my own.
The first time Anna tried to read a romance novel, her hair caught on fire when she leaned over a candle to sneak a peek at her mom’s Harlequin. She thinks being hit on the head with a shirtless Fabio until the smoke cleared is what sparked the flame for her love of romance.
Anna was born in Wisconsin, but currently lives in Texas with her husband and two boys.
She writes sexy romance that always has a happy ending and loves bringing characters back for cameos. Less than six degrees of separation connects any of her novels.
When she’s not writing or reading, she’s watching reruns of her favorite romcoms, talking to her dog and cat like they’re human, eating carbs, or practicing hand lettering.
She loves to hear from readers and can be found on social media as @annabrooksauth everywhere.
