Cindy Gerard has written a wonderfully suspenseful book with UNDER THE WIRE. Lily and Manny are both extremely likeable characters, whose emotions and beliefs are excellently and realistically written. Locations and settings are described with absolute clarity, taking readers into each scene with the characters. Secondary characters, with their unique personalities and relationships, add a great deal of interest and intrigue to the story, past and present. Frequent flashbacks take readers into the past and go far in interpreting the lives and personalities of Lily and Manny. I have read all but one of the previous books in this series and have enjoyed each and every one; UNDER THE WIRE is no exception. These books are a real treat when read in order, but each capably stands on its own. I give a high recommendation for this book, as well as the previous books, to all readers who enjoy riveting romantic suspense.

Story of Manny and Lily. Not my favorite of the Bodyguard stories, but still worth the read.

This is the 5th book in the Bodyguard series. This is a story about a friend, Manny, of the Garret family. I didn't think I would like this book as well as I did the ones about the Garrett family but once I got into it I liked it. This is story of Manny Ortega who we first meet in Nicaragua when he is 18 then reconnect with about 17 years later. Lily Campora is of course te woman that drives him crazy for years with all kinds of emotions. When they reconnect they end up in Sri Lanka on a interesting mission.
