Mister Bodyguard: The Morgan Brothers Series, Book 4 Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.5 out of 5 stars 2,010 ratings

A bodyguard, a beauty, and a bet.

“I’m hiring you to do more than guard her, Zander,” my new boss explained. “You’re gonna be her rock. Her human Valium. Her trusted friend. And she’s gonna be your mission from God.”

“So I’m her babysitter?”

“Her babysitter, her bodyguard, her f--king service doggie. Whatever she needs or wants, that’s what you’ll be. Anything except her booty call.” The vein in my new boss’s neck bulged.

“Touch her and I’ll do more than fire your ass, Zander. I’ll rip off your balls.” My buddies laughed when I told them about my ridiculous new job. They said, “Three months on a tour with a world famous beauty, glued to her hip, catering to her every whim? A hundred bucks says you’re gonna break down and bang her within the first month.” But I said nope. No way. Never. “I’m a professional,” I said. “Plus, she’s not even my type. And I’m just getting over a broken heart. It’s never gonna happen.” So I put my money where my mouth was, figuring I’d laugh all the way to the bank. I never thought I’d actually fall in love with the girl.

Or that she’d become my reason for breathing.

The job, the bet, the girl. It was nothing but fun and games...until it became dead serious. Mister Bodyguard is a standalone, friends to lovers contemporary romance in the Morgan Brothers Series from USA Today best-selling author Lauren Rowe.

The story of Zander Shaw - Keane Morgan's devoted best friend who is an honorary Morgan Brother - and the pop star who brings him to his knees.

Sweet but naughty Superstar steals Zander's heart
Lauren Rowe remains one of my favorite authors because of books like this. All the emotions are represented in this wonderful story of Zander and Aloha. Not only is Zander Keane's best buddy, wifey, brother from another mother, and friend extraordinaire, but he is also the most delightful character! He takes on the role of Mister Bodyguard with zeal and his effervescent personality. Aloha is the 'package' who makes it her mission that Mr. Bodyguard will share the sheets with her or else. The fun of traveling this journey with them is priceless. Throw in a bet that includes the entire Morgan clan as well as the star herself and you have the makings of really good times. His tender heart is at stake as well as his sanity while everyone awaits the fateful moment that Zander will fall. Ballbusting bosses, crazed fans, unforgettable after parties, sexy sweat inducing scenes, an adorable Vegas surprise and a near tragedy that makes everyone reevaluate the situation are what are in store for you with Mister Bodyguard. I couldn't be happier with this story because Lauren made it all-inclusive and perfect all the live long day!

    I liked this book but I didn't love it.
    Zander has a heart of gold. He falls in love easily and loves with all his heart. He is a devoted friend to Keane and honorary Morgan Brother. When his best buddy, Keane, moves to LA, Zander has to follow his heart. I know that might sound odd but Zander and Keane are as devoted to each other as 2 guys can be. In a parallel universe, they would be married. So now Zander is in LA and needs a job. Enter Reed Rivers. "F***ing Reed Rivers." BTW, I love Reed Rivers.
    Reed has met "frick and frack" at Kat Morgan's wedding and told Zander to give him a call if he ever moves to LA. Zander is big and Reed is thinking "bodyguard". Reed has a very trying pop star on his roster of talent and Zander might be the perfect match. Reed might be thinking Zander is the perfect bodyguard for Aloha but Barry, his head of security, has another thought, which I didn't see coming so it was a very good reveal for me in the story.
    I found Aloha to be immature and she argued so much in the beginning. I wanted to virtually slap her.
    I was hoping Zander would hold off longer but he's a lover and couldn't resist. In the end, they are perfect for each other and Zander is just what a spoiled and neglected princess needs. Zander has all the love in the world to give. The big teddy bear is a good character.

    Why are you crying? Give your pain to me.-Zander
    You know that moment when you are already sucked into a love story? You’re heart is fully invested, you are feeling so many emotions all at one time then you read something that literally makes you gasp and you feel like you’re heart is just swelling with so much love it’s going to explode. Yeah...this quote right here literally slayed me!
    What can I say about Zander? I already loved him from all the other books. He showed us how funny he was, loyal and an honorary member of the Morgan Family. Here we get to see that again and so much more. We meet a much more profound Zander. One who takes his responsibilities seriously, and can still be funny in the process. He has so much more depth to him and when he meets the one who will capture his heart, a spunky kinda girl who does what she wants, things get interesting. But don’t be fooled she has scars hiding under her smile. Aloha’s life hasn’t been one completely full of stars and glamour, but her bodyguard shows her the true meaning of family and love. Zander’s wisdom and devotion for her surfaces to become her knight in shining armor.
    Lauren has outdone herself. I don’t know how she does it but she does, not that I’m surprised. She is a brilliant writer. One of the best out there. She has created a love story that is full of life, humor and vulnerability. Oh and some pretty steamy love scenes too. Wowza!
    To say that I was excited to have the whole Morgan Family back is an understatement. The love that is palpable between Zander and the Morgan clan shows us that family is not about DNA it’s about the heart. It felt like I was back at a family reunion because yes, I want to think I am part of the Morgan family too.
    I’ve fallen in love with Zander and Aloha so much all thanks to this brilliant author. Lauren’s has a way to create words that flow like magic. They transport us to every scene. They weave effortlessly creating masterpieces. I have loved every Morgan book she has created, but this one is brilliant, emotional, raw and so much more special. Lauren don’t ever stop writing.

    I loved Zander and Aloha together! I loved how both Zander and Keane found their significant others to be mirrors of their best friends. Zander is a sweet guy who wears his heart on his sleeve. If I were Aloha, I wouldn’t trust his acclamation of love so quickly because he loves everyone quickly. I really liked Aloha. Her story was beautiful and tragic and a wonderful color to a grey world. But I can never forgive her for what she did toward the end of the story. It was dumb and childish and I hated that it was glossed over relatively quickly. But I love the Morgan family, so I loved getting to experience them from Zander’s perspective.

    So this is my second book by her and I loved the first in the series, I barely liked this one. The biggest problem with this book is that it's part of a larger universe and she's constantly telling you about it. The amount of interaction and information about the side characters was so distracting and so much that it took you out of the story. The story is about Z, it should have just been about him. I understand it in the first book because it was laying the foundation, but it was too much in this book. Stand alones should not need all these side stories. Let's talk about sex, it's just too much for me. You can show love and chemistry without being excessive and graphics. My last book by her.

    Zander Shaw is exactly who you want as a friend, wingman, love interest and bodyguard. He is capable, funny, kind, respectful and hot!
    I could wax lyrical about his virtues but honestly, Lauren writes him better!😂 You just have to read his story.
    Zander is as much a Morgan as the other stars of the series and he demonstrates this time and again.

    I adore how he 'falls in love' so easily but when it comes to the real thing, he is bewildered by the strength of feeling.
    I enjoyed the tension between his professional and personal life when it came to his duty to Aloha, the singing sensation he is tasked with protecting.

    As to Aloha herself, she struggles between who people want her to be and who she really is. I loved the fact that she was the one who wanted to break down Zander's walls. Her seduction work was excellent😉

    This book was a fantastic, fun story, with plenty of depth to grip you in the feels.
    Look forward as always to more from the talented pen of the fabulous Lauren Rowe.

    Mister Bodyguard by Lauren Rowe.

    Well.....who would have thought that the quirky, fun lovin sidekick and 'Wifey' of Keane Morgan would have such a story to tell...this reader didn't! However, what I have read within the pages of Mister Bodyguard has just left me with a huge happy heart.
    Zander Shaw cements his place as a true member of the Morgan Family in a way that far outweighed my expectatioms. Zander is not just a froth & bubbles character that plays second fiddle to Keane Morgan's adorable and lovable persona...No way in hell! This man has a depth to his soul that is delightfully charming and I must say at times surprisingly profound.
    Zander's realism is not just surface deep...this boy's nature & character is something to behold....you will most definitely fall in love!
    And the lady who captures Zander's heart is an absolute darling of a girl who hides her inner vulnerability with cheekiness and false bravado. Lauren very cleverly gives Zander a partner who's personality meshes so seemlessly with his wifey buddy Keane all the while giving ber such an adorably individualitic flare that melts your heart and makes you want to just give her a big old squeeze.
    Lauren Rowe weaves a tale of enchantment with these characters, creating an atmosphere of fun & hilarity, blending it seemlessly with some of the most explosive chemistry that leads to what I can only describe as sublime passion. There is some damn fine lovemaking on these pages!
    In Mister Bodyguard, we also get to experience another huge dollop of Morgan Clan tomfoolery which, although expected with Lauren's unique flavour of writing, still manages to delight the heck out of you, have you chuckling like a hyena and honestly just leaves you with the biggest smile on your face.
    Once again, I cannot fault anything in this story...it is sinfully delicious. It is so damn funny. It is romance personified.
    Lauren Rowe, you are by far one of the best storytellers out there...I truly adore every one of your books.
    Do not miss out on having this one on your Kindles...Zander will captivate you!

    Another masterpiece by Lauren Rowe. The book starts with some very entertaining chapters from two POVs. We get to read the hilarious texting by Aloha and Zander, after Zander asked for a selfie sent the picture of a friend completely his opposite instead.
    I loved the scenes with all the other members of the Morgan family and their significant others. It was a complete feel-well-book, the heroine proofs to be grown up, the witch gets her punishment, the hero demonstrates his capability as a bodyguard, and the reader gets a HEA.

Introducing Aloha to the Morgan family widens the group of people she can count on. The chemistry between them grows the more time they spend together . When Aloha finds herself struggling with events that happen will she be able to rely on Zander of will she push him away?
