Review of Defending Honor: An Elite Guardians Novel (Elite Guardians Collection Book 3) by Lynette Eason and Kelly Underwood – And a Giveaway!

 

Okay, so I have to confess, this is the first Elite Guardians book that I’ve read since the Lynette Eason series several years ago, and boy have I been missing out!

Defending Honor offers the same edge-of-your-seat suspense as the original books, so readers of the series won’t be disappointed.

Former Mossad agent Lalia Rabbinowitz is tasked with guarding billionaire Preston Whittaker who walked away from his family’s wealth and has been living the simple life in the small mountain town of Magellan Falls, SC. Until his father and brother are killed in a boating accident that the family attorney believes is no accident at all but murder.

When an attack on Preston’s life is foiled by Lalia, it soon becomes clear that whoever killed Preston’s father and brother won’t stop until he’s dead, and they can take control of the family’s software developing business.

With plenty of suspects, Laila must help Preston figure out who is really behind the threat on his life before they can finish the job.

There are lots of twists and turns to the story that will keep you turning the pages until the surprising end. Defending Honor is an enjoyable addition to the Elite Guardian Series.  

Here’s a little about the book:

She trusts no one…

Bodyguard Laila Rabbinowitz is all business. Tough and stoic, she was the perfect Mossad agent…until a terrible betrayal led to her worst nightmare. Being a bodyguard with the Elite Guardians allows her to keep her heart safe—she’ll never get involved with a client, never let anyone close enough to betray her again. And she’s certainly not going to trust anyone who doesn’t earn it.

He needs protection…

Billionaire Preston Whittaker walked away from his famous family after a terrible event, but he’s put that behind him—or so he thinks. When his father and brother are killed in a suspicious boating accident, he must take the helm of the family business and carry on the family legacy. But someone doesn’t want him at the helm. They want him dead.

She’ll have to pretend to be his wife to save his life…

Enter the Elite Guardians. Preston is going to need someone by his side 24/7, and the only solution is…a fake marriage. Laila needs to pull off acting as the trophy wife to the country’s most eligible bachelor. With the eyes of the paparazzi on them, she’ll have to convince everyone that she and Preston are in love.

But what will it cost her heart?

Preston’s reputation as a party playboy precedes him, and Laila doesn’t belong in his world filled with parties and money. But is there more to Preston Whittaker that the world doesn’t see? Maybe, in time, he’s someone Laila could learn to trust. Only problem is, the danger is closer than they both know…and time is running out.

Book three of the riveting, high-octane world of the Elite Guardians reboot!
