Book Review: Protecting His Night
By Elizabeth Suggs
Protecting His Night: The Men of River City by Nola Marie is a hot romance about a mobster named Rory and a stripper named Layla.
Once in love ten years ago, Rory leaves Layla, but he doesn’t realize all that he’s given up, not until he sees her again dressed up as a stripper, hiding her identity—and not just from him.
While I wasn’t in love with Rory’s possessive attitude, I did enjoy the romance reigniting between the couple. Despite what happens in their relationship, they have each other, and Rory will do anything for Layla, even if it means risking his life.
The story, while sexy, isn’t just about sex. It’s about the relationship between Rory and Layla and the secrets they’ve kept from each other.
One of my favorite things about the book is Layla’s strength. Rory may try to boss her around, but she won’t listen. She’s her own woman, and she can fight (almost) all her battles, with both her feisty attitude and martial arts training. She may be small and petite, but she’s no weak thing, which I really admire.
If you like romance with mobsters, then this is the book for you!
