“A really good hockey story, which combines very smoothly with the bodyguard to lover plot line.”
“This is a sexy hockey romance with a stalker storyline that adds some unexpected suspense… I love the slow burn chemistry between Garrett and Justin and I loved the suspense element introduced as Garrett’s stalker escalates. It is a light, easy read with a little bit of angst, great hockey action and some steamy scenes between the two men.”
“The book is full of amusing banter, lust, danger, intrigue, romance and raw emotions. You see an alpha male brought to his knees by his need to protect someone he’s just met (my kryptonite).”
Guarding Garrett
A hardworking, competitive, and skilled hockey player, Garrett is the cornerstone of the Burlington Dragons hockey team and one of the league’s most popular playmakers. Blessed with a face that delivers millions in endorsements, he has a legion of fans, and a future so bright that he is the envy of many.
When his internet fame puts him in danger, and a stalker threatens his life, the team hires Jason, a quiet but deadly former marine, to protect him. Danger is always close, but forced proximity means sparks fly, attraction burns, and somehow, resentment turns to love.
When Garrett’s stalker ups their game at a charity bachelor auction, there is a real chance it could mean the end for Garrett, but Jason refuses to leave his side whatever the risk.
These two stubborn men will have to fight to walk away from this alive, but their newfound love is worth every sacrifice.

I have not read this but do like hockey players and bodyguards. I don’t recall reading anything that includes both, but I would.
I haven’t read it yet but it sounds absolutely awesome. I love bodyguard and the protectivess and hockey i love the love story. Thank you so much I can’t wait to read it .
Bodyguard books just don’t really float my boat but I do like a good hockey romance. I can’t say why bodyguard books don’t do it for me, they’re just not a trope that I particularly enjoy.
I haven’t read it. I don’t care for sports books. I love you Sanctuary & Texas & Montana books & Ellery Mountain books.
I like slow burn bodyguard romances. I’ve read plenty of hockey stories even though I have no knowledge of the actual sport.
Yes I have read it, and I loved it. I like both your hockey series and your bodygaurd series, so I am down with either or both.
No, I haven’t read it yet. I’m moving it to next on my reading list. It sounds perfect for my current mood.
I haven’t read it, but I like hockey romances, especially if they are MM.
Loved it and I am bringing my paperback copy with me to get it signed
No, I haven’t read it. I began reading your books years ago with the Sanctuary Series, and have a great appreciation for all your bodyguards and their lovers, but I have never been to a hockey game and have a hard time watching it on television. Sorry about that.
Love hockey stories!
LOVED THE BODY GUARD SERIES, AND REALLY LOVED THE SANCTUARY SERIES… PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE EXPAND ON THEM BOTH! IVE ONLY READ A SHORT STORY ABOUT A “HOCKEY ROMMANCE”… being from the southern USA, I’m not real familiar with the game… picture a shrug here!
Yes I’ve read it. Yes I want more hockey cause there can never be enough hockey! #BlueJackets 😉
I love Hockey and Bodyguard romances, and any mix of the two. A series that focuses on one hockey team specifically or one bodyguard team/business gives you the chance to get to know the characters and catch up with those from previous books which is one of my favourite things 🙂
Hi – you’re my winner – please email me rj@rjscott.co.uk and let me know what country Amazon you use and I will get a gift card to you 🙂 Congratulations xxxxx
I’m a sucker for a good bodyguard romance! Guarding Garrett was a fun read!
I haven’t read it yet but I would if my TBR list wasn’t so long… I’ll get there eventually
Its on my list to read.
I LOVED the book!
More Garrret with or withOUT Bodyguards
Lolol!!!
Hi, no I haven’t read it yet. I am surprised how much I like your hockey books and also other authors despite knowing nothing about it.
Bodyguards are always welcome as well.
Not a fan of sport books, so no I haven’t read it yet. I love the bodyguard books though
I have read this book and it was good. I think there are enough hockey books going on – enjoying the Boston Rebels series right now. I think a bodyguard series would be interesting, maybe one along the line of the Sanctuary series.
Haven’t read yet. Hockey isn’t a favorite setting, but I do occasionally read them. I feel it’s an overused milieu.
Bodyguards, however, are hot!
I have not read this book. However sports romance, especially hockey, definitely hold a space in my library. I like to sprinkle them in for a change once in a while.
I have read it. I like both bodyguard and hockey stories.
I do like bodyguard stories, especially with some fun snark.
No, I haven’t. I like bodyguard stories, but I’m not into sports romance.
I have not read this book. I enjoy watching hocking live, but I can’t get into it when watching it on tv.
I haven’t read it yet, but I love to read hockey m/m.
I have read Guarding Garrett. I loved the book and really liked the bodyguard aspect. I also love the hockey books you have written too. I would actually read anything you write. So there you have it. You have become one of my favorite authors. I would be happy with either type of book or series. Loved Sanctuary series too and like the way guys show up in other books you have written, like the chapters you are emailing each week right now. Love it and keep up the great work and fun along the way.
I can’t wait to read this book just added it to my TBR Pile . Hockey romance is one of my favorites…. I’m sure it will be just as good as the other hockey romance novels written by RJ Scott!
I haven’t read it yet, but it’s on my TBR. I’m still working on your back list while trying to keep up with all the new releases by my other favorite authors haha
Have not read this. I love bodyguard books.
I’ve never seen a hockey game before, unless you count movies, but I like body guards.
I will admit to having no interest in the game of hockey, and whilst they aren’t my favourites, I do still like the hockey stories, though it can take a while for me to get to them (I always buy them even if I may be a very long time before I get to them) as I tend to prioritise my *reading* to audiobooks due to poor eyes lol, so if a favourite series like say Sanctuary or Texas had a new book and a wait was on the cards for audio, I would find a way to read them
Hi! I haven’t read your books yet, but I love sports, and hockey is one of the sports I want to know better 🙂
