Working as a lifeguard at a luxurious Florida resort, Ned Kelly meets the woman of his dreams. It feels perfect in every way-except that she's used to caviar and Manolo Blahniks, and he's used to burgers and flip-flops. So when Ned's cousin offers to cut him in on a fast break-and-enter job, Ned can't turn it down. The risk is high, and the reward is even greater-$5 million. But the robbery goes devastatingly wrong. Forced to run away from his town and the woman he's fallen in love with, Ned knows that only distance and secrecy can save his life. But who is pursuing him? The FBI? Whoever sabotaged the heist? Or is it all somehow tied in to his new love-and his oldest enemies?
Lifeguard fits into multiple categories. It is a romance
novel, a crime novel, a suspense novel and no much more.
For being a fugitive, Ned was an extremely likable
character. I wouldn’t mind a series made about him alone. But, the series would
have to be prequels to this book, as I believe this novel had a satisfying
ending to his story.
Ellie was also a fun character.
This book was more character driven than story driven, and
that is what made it fun to read. All of the character had very different
personalities and it was fun getting to know them.
That doesn’t mean that the story was lacking at all, it just
wasn’t exceptionally unique. A mediocre story line was made up for by the fun
and interesting characters.
Lifeguard reminded me a little of the TV show White Collar
which made it even better as I enjoy that show a lot.
4/5 Stars I really enjoyed it, but those who aren’t fans of
Patterson may not.
I would call it a nice summer thriller.
