Triple-Duty Bodyguards by Lily Gold

This one, again, was a totally different vibe to all the rest because it's an actress and her three new bodyguards, brought in because she's being stalked. So there's more suspense, intensity, occasional chapters from the POV of the stalker, explosions, etc. But as expected now from this author, the characters had things they're working through and by all coming together they help each other. Briar has been an actress since she was a kid and is nicknamed Britain's Biggest Bitch because she doesn't hold back and says whatever, and calls people out for stuff. Matt, Glen, and Kenta are former special services military from the same team, who were all captured and tortured during their last tour. Matt has major PTSD, flashback, and survivor's guilt, and Glen and Kenta have scarring, with Glen's more visible on his face. The men eventually learn that she's not her public persona, and they all get together and fall in love while dealing with the stalker and an eventual kidnapping situation. I enjoyed this one too even though it isn't my go to as far as romance subgenres. It would make a good movie, though.
