Touch Her and Die

McRae Bodyguards, #1

By: Jolie Vines

Narrated by: Aaron Shedlock, Addison Barnes

A grumpy Scottish bodyguard with an iced-over heart, and the sunshine woman who might just melt it.

Daisy
Phoneless, carless, and trapped by my relatives, I make a daring escape in just my fancy underwear. Right as a grouchy but gorgeous bodyguard arrives to rescue me.
Enemies pursue us on our West Coast road trip, so Ben whisks me away to a snowed-in cabin in Scotland. I start falling until I'm ready to let him guard my body in every way possible.
But breaking his rules could cost me everything—including him.

Ben
As a bodyguard, I have one rule: don't get attached. Yet Daisy's got me hooked. When I'm asked to protect her, I can't resist. She's warmth and kindness wrapped up in a curvy package, and I'm willing to cross any line to keep her safe.
Almost.
No matter how torn I am between duty and desire, there’s only one chance I can’t take.
For her, I’ll risk anything—except for my heart.

Touch Her and Die is the first in a brand new bodyguard series that brings steam, mystery, and adventure, plus a little revenge plot for our heroines. This is stand-alone romantic suspense with only-one-bed (twice) and a forbidden element.

Believe

It can happen. Face the pain and hurt of the past, love will prevail. Bold, hot, and sweet.

Excellent Read

Jolie’s books always deliver the best steam, intrigue and development of her characters. This audiobook was perfectly narrated and made it a joy to “reread” in audio form.

Love the duet narration

This story is a fantastic addition to the McRae family and a great start to a new series. It was so nice to see our beloved McRaes and to watch Daisy integrate seamlessly into their lives. Ben was an intriguing character when he showed up in the pages of Tormented and I loved that his story came full circle back to the original Marry the Scot series that started it all.

I loved the duet narration and the narrator for Ben was particularly yummy.

wow

liked the added sounds made it seam real had to look around a couple of times to look for sound and the story

OMG the accent!

I read this book when it first came out and it was so so good. I just love the relationship between Daisy and Ben and how it develops. The story and connections to other characters are so well written. I love how there are even teasers of authors books. But when the audio came out I had to have it and I am so glad that I got it. Ben’s accent is FIRE and makes the book even better than just reading it. The narrators did such an incredible job bringing Jolie’s already amazing work to life. Highly recommend this book, and all of the books Jolie has written. They are so awesome.

🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧 Narration

This was my first book/audiobook by Jolie Vines and I freaking loved it! The storyline was fantastic, and I really enjoyed the lead characters Daisy and Ben. There were moments where the story felt like it dragged a bit, but the narrators did a really good job with helping me stay connected to the story. The spice was written really well and none of the scenes seemed too short or too long, they were just right. I really appreciated there wasn't OWD or a third act break-up, as I can't stand either of those things. I did struggle a bit with the lack of an epilogue between the two main characters and understand we'll continue seeing them in the next books in the series, however I would have still liked to have seen something, so I'm hoping for some kind of epic epilogue after the series is complete.

The narration was absolutely fabulous. I'm a huge Aaron Shedlock fan and that little bit of an accent he did really helps bring the MMC Ben to life. Addison also did a fantastic job and I thought she did a great job voicing Daisy. They're voices go really great together and I loved the sound effects too!

Highly recommend! I've already purchased and downloaded book 2 Save Her from Me and can't wait to jump in!
