My Biker Bodyguard

When Mitch arrives at their bike repair/tattoo shop, Jess Owen doesn’t buy his or her father’s story for a minute. They say Mitch is an old friend of her father’s, but Jess knows better. She is sure that Mitch is bad news and is determined to get him out of their lives as soon as possible.

Mitch was hired to protect Jess from a deadly enemy. However, her father refuses to let Mitch tell Jess why he is there because he never told Jess the truth that her mother is not only alive and well, living in California but is also a rich heiress worth $150 million. Now someone wants Jess and her mother dead.

Hold on to your seats…umm…sissy bar. MY BIKER BODYGUARD is a wild ride. This reader was intrigued with the character of Jess, a biker babe that isn’t really a biker babe. Jess gives tattoos but doesn’t sport a body full of them herself. Her and her father own a bike repair shop, but she drives a vintage supped up Ford Mustang. What a combination. She is her father’s daughter, headstrong and stubborn. When she finally discovers the truth it isn’t because her dad sat her down and had a heart to heart talk with her. It is because she has killed a man in a shoot out and her and Mitch have been arrested. Gotta love that!

Author J.R. Turner has done a remarkable job in giving details that make this book believable. The names of the friends that hang out at the bike shop, J.D., Trash, and Tiny not to mention Jess’s father Dirty Dan. This reader felt that she was really in a biker’s hangout. Then we are taken to a plush California mansion. Talk about one extreme to the other, and it is done smoothly and credibly.

MY BIKER BODYGUARD did have one flaw however. This reader was able to figure out whom the mastermind behind the murder attempts fairly early on. Once Mitch and Jess got to California in fact. Oh well, can’t have everything. But still, MY BIKER BODYGUARD is a great read and highly amusing. This reader will not be forgetting the character of Jess anytime soon
