“It’s as simple as that?” he clarified.
“One night at my place and you’ll give Joanna a million quid for her charity?”
Could he put up with a pain in the butt prima donna for one night for a million quid?
“As simple as that.”
Blake regarded her. His practical side was screaming at him to take the cash but the other side of him, the one attuned to doom in all its forms was wary as hell.
“You know there are thousands of men out there who would give anything to have me for a sleep over?”
She shot him a coy look from under her fringe and Blake glanced at her mouth. It had kicked up at one side as her voice had gone all light and teasy.
He didn’t want that mouth slumming it at his place.
But one million quid was hard to turn down.
“Fine,” he sighed. “But I leave in the morning for my holiday and you have to be gone.”
“Absolutely,” she grinned. “I promise you won’t even know I’m there.”
Blake grunted as his doom-o-meter hit a new high. He sincerely doubted that.
Dear Reader
I’ve always had a secret hankering to do a bodyguard story. I just adore the trope. And, whilst this book isn’t a typical bodyguard scenario, I hope you like my take on it—because I’ve had Ava and Blake in my head in various incantations for a long time now, and it was great to finally get them down on paper.
I had a lot of fun taking mega-rich, mega-spoiled supermodel Ava and shoving her on a tiny canal boat in the UK with the only man on the planet who seems immune to her charms. I had even more fun needling private, serious, returned soldier Blake with the temptation of a woman who has absolutely no problem with baring acres of skin or leaving her lingerie all over his floating home.
I’m pleased I let Ava and Blake marinate, though. Had I written their story years ago, I don’t think they’d have had the emotional complexity they do today. Because underneath Ava’s hard, demanding surface is a woman who can’t trust. And beneath Blake’s tough, pragmatic shell is a man whose physical limitations cripple him emotionally.
Which only makes their HEA even more rewarding!
I hope you enjoy their journey to love. Oh, and London at Christmas!
Love

AMY ANDREWS has always loved writing, and still can’t quite believe that she gets to do it for a living. Creating wonderful heroines and gorgeous heroes and telling their stories is an amazing way to pass the day. Sometimes they don’t always act as she’d like them to—but then neither do her kids, so she’s kind of used to it. Amy lives in the very beautiful Samford Valley, with her husband and aforementioned children, along with six brown chooks and two black dogs.
