About this ebook

He's an A-list Hollywood heartthrob.
She's trying to prove herself in a man's world.
For this female bodyguard, protecting her client is simply business, but what happens when sparks fly and the danger heats up?

After a series of box office flops, Rocco Monroe needs a hit. Bad press, shit talking, rumors, lies...it all goes with the territory after almost two decades in the spotlight, but when he lands the role of his career in a controversial biopic, the part of a lifetime comes with a catch: a hired bodyguard.

Annabelle Clad is so bored she wants to scream. Her life is coding and algorithms and binary codes...rinse and repeat. To her Rocco Monroe means freedom, a chance to show her overprotective brother and business partner that she can contribute to Iron Clad Securities. And no arrogant playboy will fuck up her concentration by batting his lashes at her. She would never jeopardize her reputation by swooning over any man.
That had happened once, and she wouldn’t bear that loss or humiliation ever again. Even if Rocco looks like a walking fantasy...

From USA Today bestselling author Sidney Halston comes the second book in the Iron-Clad series, Last First Kiss.

Last First Kiss by Sidney Halston is the second book in the Iron Clad Security series. This book is one that is really close to my heart because I too was an MP in the Army. Annie is the little annoyingly smart sister to Joey Clad, the co-owner of Iron Clad Security. She is one of the best when it comes to computers but she has the combat training under her belt and she is ready to get into the fight as an actual security guard, except everyone seems to be against her. Rocco is the playboy actor looking at playing the lead in a movie that will make his career, yet this movie is one that people don't want to be made. Rocco is forced to get a bodyguard but he didn't expect what else he would get when he hired the feisty girl in the conference room. These two have great chemistry, they are well developed, instant lust but a slow growing love and I love that as tough as she is, Rocco brings out her softer side and gets her to open up about what happened to her while she was in combat. Thank you Sidney for writing another amazing book and one that I hope ladies can look up to this heroine/soldier.

Annie’s struggling to make her brother see her as an equal in their security company. After all, she’s ex-military and has survived catastrophic conditions while serving her duty. Unfortunately, to her brothers she’s still just their baby sister. When the film company Rocco is contracted with demands he have a full time body guard due to threats and violence regarding his upcoming movie, a woman is the last thing he’s expecting. However, after Annie shows him what she’s made of and walks out, he refuses to settle for anyone but her. This book has it all. Drama, angst, humor, mystery, suspense and romance sprinkled with plenty of heat. I loved everything about this story! The characters are well developed and even though I’m usually not a fan of the tough nitty gritty heroines, I really liked Annie. The role reversal between the usual protective hero and the needing to be protected heroine, was written well and was so unique and unexpected. This is not your typical alpha hero, but don’t count him out ladies. He’s absolutely certain of who and what he wants and he remains alpha to the very end. If Annie’s brothers are this protective over her, I hope this author has plans to give them their own stories. I’ll be all over that!

I really enjoyed this one. It was nice to see a strong capable woman in a bodyguard role even if Annie is a little over the top at times. Rocco was great. Hollywood A-lister trying to branch out and do a serious but he's receiving some backlash in the form of threats against him. Therefore, the studio is requiring him to hire a bodyguard. He's not too happy at first but once he gets a taste of Annie's talents he's all in! Fighting the attraction between them may be difficult but they can do it. Right??? I highly recommend this one.

About the author

USA Today bestselling author Sidney Halston lives her life by one simple rule: "Just Do It" - Nike. And that's exactly what she did. After working hard as an attorney, Sidney picked up a pen for the first time at thirty years old to begin her dream of writing. Having never written anything other than very exciting legal briefs, she found an outlet for her imaginative, romantic side and wrote Seeing Red. That first pen stroke sealed the deal, and she fell in love with writing. Sidney lives in South Florida with her husband and children. She loves her family above all else, and reading follows a close second. When she's not writing, you can find her reading and reading and reading. She's a reader first and a writer second. When she's not writing or reading, her life is complete and utter chaos, trying to balance family life with work and writing (and reading). But she wouldn't have it any other way.
