Jon

I should have left well alone. Should have assigned someone else.

But something in Mia called to me, I wasn’t going to let another man be her bodyguard.

I’ve failed before. I must not fail again. It’s her life at stake if I do.

Mia

Someone’s stalking me. He’s getting too close.

Does he want to scare me? Hurt me? Or worse?

Has my past caught up with me?

Who’s the most danger? My stalker, or the man sent to protect me?

I write fiction. I don’t live it. Until now.

Product description

About the Author

After commuting for too many years to London working in various senior management roles, Manda left the rat race and now fulfils her dream and writes full time. She draws on her background in psychology, the experience of working in different disciplines and personal life experiences in her books. Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of North Essex with her husband and two slightly nutty Irish Setters. Walking her dogs gives her the thinking time to come up with plots for her novels, and she often dictates ideas onto her phone on the move, while looking over her shoulder hoping no one is around to listen to her. Manda's other main hobby is reading, and she devours as many books as she can. Her biggest fan is her gay son (every mother should have one!). Her favourite pastime when he is home are the late night chatting sessions they enjoy, where no topic is taboo, and usually accompanied by a bottle of wine or two.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Manda’s life's always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she’s still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman?

There isn’t enough space to list everything that’s happened to Manda, or what she’s learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she’s met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected.

Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area’s claim to fame being the Wilkin’s Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter.

Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.

Close Protection is an intense story from the first page to the last. Mia is the leading lady and Jon is our Hero. Mia is an author who writes BDSM romance stories, she has a stalker who has been watching for years but finally let's her know he is coming for her. Jon is from Grade A Security and is placed as her bodyguard but will become a protector, lover and her hero.
Their attraction to eachother is explosive from their first meeting, Jon is gentle , caring and will show Mia that something beautiful will come from her placing herself in his care. They have a tough road ahead and will have to go though many awful things before they get a HEA.
Ma's past is dark, cruel and it was difficult reading about her past. Mellett does a great job of showing how Mia healed herself and gave this character great strength.
Loving this series. Happy Reading!!!

This book was fabulous. Another great book by this author. I lobed Jon and Mia's story. I also loved the whole Dom/sub link in the story as well as the flashbacks, particularly Jon's to the Najid story. I would definitely read the first book as it gives good insight into the second although they can be read standalone. This book and the previous one has me scouring around for more Shiek and Do/sub books to read and cant wait for Kadar's story. Ms Mellett, bring on Jasim, Ben, Ryan and Sean's stories!

The folks from Grade A are intertwined with the lives of the sheikhs of Amahad. Each book, while a standalone with its own couple, builds on the relationships from the previous one. I cannot say enough good stuff about this whole series!

Having recently read the first in this series I was intrigued to know Jon's story as Nijad 's bodyguard. Mia had a horrific ordeal in her past that had left her hiding behind a new identity living the life she had secretly craved. A great storyline with brilliant,believable characters. V dark in places but glad that bastard got his come uppance but personally I would have tortured the bastard for longer!! So looking forward to next one in series as these have been excellent so far!!
