Hijacked by May Archer, Lucy Lennox

medium-paced

4.25

 Hijacked is a perfect blend of action, spice, angst and laugh-out-loud moments. A book with a dash of forced proximity, instant attraction, a monologuing bad guy and side characters that are hilarious when butting heads.

Carter is a renowned cardiologist who is going to Venezuela to work for the Doctors Across Continents program. What he doesn’t expect is that his grandfather hires a bodyguard from Champion Security named William Riggs. Let's just say Riggs doesn't want to be there but when you have f*cked up on a previous opp, you do as the boss man says. What neither thought would happen in the jungles of Venezuela was the instant attraction both felt and the fact that they would be kidnapped by a hypochondriac for dr*glord with nefarious plans. 😷👨‍⚕️🩺

The book is hilarious and the dry humor suited me immensely. Carter and Riggs both dislike and enjoy each other's company and the way they navigate the kidnapping situation is gold. Carter has a heart of gold and that will get him into trouble and make Riggs' job just a tiny bit harder. The spice is just enough and doesn't take over the storyline.

The overall storyline will continue in books 2 and 3 and I just know we as readers will find ourselves in more hilarious situations. 😂 😂😂
