His to Protect
A Fireside Novel #2
Stacey Lynn
Publisher: Loveswept
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 12, 2016
A warm home for
broken hearts, the Fireside Grill serves up hope and healing in equal measure.
Stacey Lynn’s sensual, deeply emotional series heats up as a jaded restaurateur
falls hard for a woman who’s hiding from a damaged past.
Declan James lost
his last ounce of trust the day his wife walked out the door, leaving him to
save the restaurant they built together. Throwing himself into his work, Declan
swears off women—or at least, women who expect him to stick around in the
morning. But when he discovers a skittish beauty scrounging through the
Fireside’s trash to feed her dog, Declan offers her a job and a place to rest
her head. There’s just something about her that awakens his protective side.
And soon, not even that mangy mutt can stop Declan from caring for her.
After one too many
trips to the ER, Trina Wilson finally gathered the courage to leave her
husband, taking only her car and hyperactive boxer. Unfortunately, life on the
run proves harder than she anticipated—until Declan takes a leap of faith on
her. But even as Trina starts to see beyond his gruff exterior, she can’t relax,
even for a moment. Not with her husband still tracking her down. What Trina
doesn’t know is that in Declan, she has a powerful ally—and, if she would only
follow her heart, a devoted lover.
PRAISE FOR HIS TO PROTECT
“His
to Protect will have you on the edge of your seat the entire read. I swooned
one moment and held my breath the next. Stacey Lynn will leave you wanting
more—so much more!”—New York Times bestselling author Kelly Elliott
“Stunning
characters and a bright, refreshing voice drew me in on the first page. I
didn’t want to put it down!”—New York Times bestselling author Claudia Connor
It has a pretty predictable plot, but it was still an enjoyable read. It mainly focuses on Declan and Trina developing relationship as they both take a leap of faith ad trust each other. Declan's ex-wife left him untrusting of women, but he feels immediately protective of Trina when he catches her digging through the dumpster to feed her dog. Trina is on the run from her abusive husband, but there is something about Declan that draws her in. He makes her feel safe and that allows her to see a future where she is free. Can be read as a standalone, but there are characters that appeared in the first book and will continue to appear in the next book. Loved the way the ending setup the beginning to the next book.
I received an ARC via NetGalley for the purpose of an honest review. I was not compensated for this review, all conclusions are my own.
Stacey Lynn is a simple girl, raised most of her
life in the MidWest. Perhaps it was the long, frigid winters that left her so
bored she had nothing to do but spend time reading every book she could get her
hands on from John Grisham and Danielle Steel to Ann M. Martin and CS Lewis. As
an avid reader, she began penning poems and short stories long before she
reached high school and her love of the written word has never diminished.
Now, as a wife and mother to four children, she
finds solace from the craziness of her life by creating steamy, sexy stories
that generally tug at your emotions. What began as a hobby and a way to survive
a Minnesota winter three years ago and the dream of publishing her first book,
has now turned into an unending passion.
