"For fans of romantic suspense and mystery cozies"
While shoe history expert and modern designer Professor
Lili Kavanaugh was at the Art Institute of Chicago giving a
lecture, a man with a gun tried to abduct her. She manages
to escape by fighting and fainting, but a family friend
hires personal security specialist Matt Hawkins as Lili's
bodyguard over both their objections. A second attempt to kidnap Lili occurs, but Matt and
his team thwart that effort. Having no enemies, Lili
wonders why her. Could the target be her latest addition
to her historical shoe collection? Still why would anyone
commit a violent crime to obtain a seven decade old pair of
shoes even if they were involved in the legendary shootings
of gangster Joey Mancuso and his squeeze Rose? Fans of romantic suspense and mystery cozies will enjoy
HER BODYGUARD that combines a 1933 gangster story
with a modern day romance linking the genres through the
shoes. The noteworthy story line engages patrons of both
genres as the action never eases up until the final scene.
Michelle Jerott has written her best novel to date with two
deep lead characters starring in a bizarre romantic
thriller. Harriet Klausner
