Average customer review:Product Description
This installment of the Bodyguard series finds protection specialist Natasha Chamberlain self-employed and happily involved with her former boss, Jonce Striker. Natasha's first case centers around Chumley, a champion show dog. The squat Pug has been sent a death threat regarding his participation in an upcoming event.
Although Natasha sees little danger in protecting a canine, she discovers that isn't the case when she ends up in the emergency room several times. If that isn't bad enough, she's finding it difficult to balance her new business with her increasing love for Striker.
Meanwhile, Striker sees the investigation growing wackier and more dangerous by the day. His time is spent between trying to convince Natasha that the bodyguard business is too dangerous and deciding how he can persuade her to marry him.

Donna Zapf, Cata Single Titles, May, 2006
I laughed till I cried and still chuckle when I muse back over this riotously entertaining book.
Brenda Edde, Romance Junkies, May, 2006
...a laugh-a-minute story in the best Janet Evanovich style...the makings of an Emmy winning sitcom.
Laurel Johnson, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review, June, 2006
French excels at creating very human characters, intense action, provocative story lines and sizzling romance.
Customer Reviews
Hilarious!
After reading The Bodyguard, I was anxious for #2 in the series. The Bodyguard was funny and fun to read, but this one tops the first. Professional bodyguard Natasha Chamberlain's self-employed and ready to take on the world. She's a little disappointed her first job will be guarding Chumley, a show dog, but when the dog's owner asks her to find out who's threatening the pug, Natasha signs on in a hurry. Chumley is a handful when his mistress isn't around but Natasha falls in love with the dog and becomes overzealous in her efforts to protect him as well as find out who's threatening him. Her lover, sexy hunk Striker, finds himself bailing Natasha out of trouble time after time, worrying about her wacky methods of investigation, and trying to find a way to convince Natasha the bodyguard field is too dangerous.
Pit and Bigun, the dynamic duo, are around for more fun. The chapter about the massage parlor is hilarious! Roger's back in the fray with a girlfriend who seems more interested in his money than Roger. Brutus, Natasha's and Roger's Weimaraner, is around for more fun. I love that dog!
Read the professional reviews and you'll see this book is a winner. I'm still laughing over this one and now anxiously await #3.Did I read it involves a rock star from England? Cool!
Note from Author
Dear Readers,
Some of you may note that this book is shown as unavailable. Good news is the first-print run sold completely out. Bad news, there was a glitch in ordering the second-print run in time to forestall any delay in delivery of the book. But I've been advised by my publisher that The Bodyguard and the Show Dog will be available once more on October 13th. I apologize for the delay and thank you for your patience.
Peace and love,
Christy
