Keep Her from Them (McRae Bodyguards, #4) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 711 ratings

A rebellious princess and the bodyguard who'll break every rule to keep her.

Alexandra
As a member of the royal family, my life is a spectacle. Every move I make ends up in the headlines. When a familiar face from my past joins my security team, his return brings more than just old memories. Raphael suspects someone close to me is leaking my whereabouts, putting me in danger.
I should be furious. Instead, I can't resist pushing his buttons. He wants me safe. I want to tease him. Besides, disappearing from the public eye isn’t an option.
Until it becomes the only choice I have.
Raphael
Guarding a princess wasn’t in my plans, but the more time I spend around Alex, I mean Her Royal Highness, the more I realise she’s in real danger. A series of close calls proves someone is selling her out, and it’s my job to stop them.
But keeping her safe means getting too close. Too close to the way she fits against me, the way she looks at me like she remembers everything we almost had.
The princess is off-limits. I have too many secrets to hold onto someone like her.
But staying away? That might be the one order I can’t follow.
--
Keep Her from Them is the final book in the McRae Bodyguards series, a lower drama-high romance series that follows our favourite crew of Scottish bodyguards. You can read this as a standalone.

    The fourth and final book in the Bodyguards Series tells the story of Raphael and his actual Princess, Alexandra.

    Raphael and Alex met one night several years earlier, but were separated by the end of the evening. Fast forward to the present, and Raphael has been assigned to be Alex's bodyguard while her team is undergoing a transition. They immediately recognize each other, and sparks fly. Alex has an independent spirit, despite her required duties to the Crown. Raphael is a protector down to his bones, and all he wants is to keep her safe from the dangers that go along with her job.

    Readers were introduced to Raphael several books earlier as a young teenager, and he had a rough childhood (to say the least!), so it is no surprise that he is very mature despite being only 23 in this story. His harsh upbringing produced the sweetest soul. He loves his siblings, his friends, and his found family. Meeting Alex again makes him question his concerns about romantic relationships, as well as his own capacity for romantic love.

    Raphael and Alex have lovely chemistry, and they are both very good for each other. Alex soothes Raphael's anxieties; and Raphael, as Alex's best friend proclaims, is a giver. He gives completely of himself in everything he does (mind, body, and soul). He needs Alex's free spirit to bring him out of his own doubts about love and the future.

    The Bodyguard Series is part of the McRae universe. While this story is technically a standalone, it is best enjoyed as part of the complete Jolie Vines collection.

    Sweet Raphael!! This story was such a great wrap up to the McRae bodyguards series! This series was so fun, I love how detailed the bodyguards protection plans are and how Jolie details that out for us to really get a sense of how much care they put into their work. The texting/phone call scene! 🥵 good gravy did I enjoy that!
    Princess Alexandra has the worst protection team and when they need a substitute and Raphael is sent in he highlights the never ending weaknesses within her team. On top of that, they have history!!! He protected her in college in a big misunderstanding. These two have long standing tension that plays out beautifully. And then we had the bonus on the bff Dori! I loved Dori’s personality! And the bonus epilogue you can download with his story is soooo good!

    “For obvious reasons, bodyguards made excellent stalkers, and I was unsure if I could resist trying it on for size.”

    “It’s okay. I’m here.” I’d never felt so safe.”

    “I’d never known anything like this. I’d never met anyone like him. I’d do everything to keep the thing we’d found because there was no other option but us.”

    “This. I wanted this forever. The decision had been made and tattooed to my soul.”

    Thoughts: I liked this book. I thought it was a great way to wrap up the McRae Bodyguards series. The romance was a lot lighter and sweeter than I expected it to be. There was a great suspense plot that didn’t seem very dark or heavy and it fit in well with the overall feel of the book.

    Raphael was a great MMC. He was flawed and had some interesting vulnerabilities, but he was devoted to Alex from the moment he met her in university. The five year gap in their time together definitely added to the sweetness of their romance, Alex and Raphael used that time to grow into the adults they should be so when they met again they were more mature and ready to fight for their forbidden romance.

    Alex was such a fun character. She was intelligent and mischievous. She played the part that was expected of her by the royal family and only those close to her really got to know the real Alex. I loved how easily she fit into Raphael’s world and that he didn’t expect her to be anything other than her true self.

    The suspense took more of a backseat and this book really focused on character growth and the relationship between Alex and Raphael. I felt like it did a great job of wrapping up the series.

    I never realized I needed a royal love affair before reading Keep Her from Them. What happens when the help falls in love with royalty. Secret rendezvous, scandalous backstabbing, and steamy forbidden desires being realized.
    Keep Her from Them is a slow burn read with a HEA that I would recommend to everyone.

    Yep. The wait is over and it was totally worth it.

    The Mcrae's security group is back and Raphael has been given a special job guarding a princess and they have a history. These two were so great and of course there were funny laugh out loud moments, thank you Valentine, and romantic moments, touching emotional moments and yummy sexy moments.

    Raphael was no joke! Idk why I didn't think he was going to be able to compare to the likes of Val, Ben or Jackson but sweet baby Jesus he was such a protector and such a lover. I loved every second of this except the fact that I finished it.

    Omg I didn't think I'd love these two as much as I did! Raphael has always been the sweet kid who's tried protecting his family after they rescued him years ago. Always happy to see his siblings paired off with their own hea, but never feeling like he deserved it for himself.

    Great finish to another fab series with our favourite Clan and their friends. It’s been great getting to know the characters and how their lives change over the years and all the new ones that decide that the McRae Clan and their land is where they want to be.

    Oh my word!! One of the most intense scene’s in a book and they don’t even though each other!! Now THAT is chemistry!! Raphael and Alex are made for each other but really REALLY come from different backgrounds. Can they find a way to make those differences not matter?
  • Brilliant fast delivery extremely important in my case with medication.
