Bodyguard Series #6

 Mine to Hold by Shayla Black 

FINALLY, we have a plot! Tyler, the former cop turned strip club bodyguard is being hassled by the wives when Delaney shows up on his porch. With his son. Flashback two years ago. He was a cop and she was married to his best friend, also a cop. Except his friend, Eric, was shot in the back and temporarily paralyzed. Eric asks Tyler to sleep with Del so he can watch and it will give him something to work towards with his physical therapy. Everyone agrees. Except Tyler is better in bed than Eric is and he gets pissed. The condom breaks. Now she's pregnant. Eric gets pissed all over again and throws her out and divorces her. Meanwhile, she wants to do something other than fluff pieces for the newspaper she works for and she starts investigating the ADA. He's very corrupt. Her car gets blown up and she takes her son and runs to Tyler. He agrees to help her, but not by watching their son; he's going with her to investigate and get her flash drive out of Erics' house. When they get there the house has been trashed. Eric tries to rape her. And the flash drive is gone. They stay at Xanders' place and plan. Eric calls and says he found the flash drive and she has to come alone. She does not show up alone, but her backup is hiding. The ADA is there and she manipulates him into monologuing. He tries to have her killed but her backup saves her. She and Tyler decide to be together, which is good because she's pregnant again. I was not expecting Tyler's story, but it was a nice change of pace for this series.
