Sabrina McAllaster, a beautiful librarian, has everything in her life under control. Enter Jake Devlin, a darkly handsome man, who will be her bodyguard. Jake has been hired by Sabrina's mother to keep her safe for the next two weeks. Sabrina is not happy about this because she is going on a long awaited vacation and doesn't want Jake along. Though neither is happy with the circumstances, they realize they are stuck with each for the duration and try to make the best of the difficult situation.

Jake believes this assignment will be easy as long as he doesn't let it get personal. But one night after Jake struggles with his problem, Sabrina fixes him a "sure cure" for his troubles. After that Jake knows he wants Sabrina and that he has been waiting for her all his life. He thinks of her like a butterfly fluttering around and he is the guy who will catch her in his net. Sabrina struggles with her attraction to the dark and quiet man who is her bodyguard.

Jake will protect Sabrina, but who will protect her from her bodyguard? An excellent story with an attempted kidnapping, and a romantic setting for love. Jake and Sabrina have been looking for something that is missing in their lives. They find that something in each other. A great read and one that I kept on my shelf.
