Publisher Description
Ex-Army sergeant and security expert Cody Matthews recently walked away from his company to work The Lucky B Ranch just outside of Marietta, Montana. The ranch is his refuge, but his hiding out is short-lived when he’s recruited into the Marietta Bachelor Auction and his high school ex-crush bids a small fortune to spend one weekend with him.
Hollywood starlet Haley Dawn O'Malley has had decent, honest, sexy Code Matthews on the brain ever since she left Marietta after high school to pursue her dreams. Now she's back in town and determined to get Code's full attention.
After losing a female client he shouldn't have gotten involved with, Cody wants no strings, no ties to any woman. Yet, Hayley isn't about to let the tormented man deny his feelings for her, no matter the threat to her heart.

Cute, quick read!
Cody Matthews has returned to Marietta, Montana searching for his next steps in life. For the time being he is helping his Uncle on his ranch while he desperately tries to stay away from Hayley, who has just returned to Marietta and asks for his help.
Hayley is a Hollywood Oscar winner who comes back to Marietta to deal with the death of her grandmother. While in town, she is being targeted and asks her high school love to keep her safe. Cody initially refuses to help her, trying to stay away from the memories she brings with her of their last time together, back in his Uncle’s barn in high school.
During a bachelor auction to raise funds for a rooftop helipad for the local hospital, Hayley bids $10,000 for a weekend with Cody. They both quickly realize the sparks are still there all these years later.
This was a romantic, enjoyable quick read. Hayley and Cody are a cute couple and you knew instantly they belonged together. I love the little plot twist regarding who really is stalking Hayley. I enjoyed this book and look forward to book #2 in the series.
Security
Bachelor for Hire was a great start to the new Bachelor Auction series. Cody Matthews and Haley O' Malley were high school friends until she got scared and left town to become a movie star while Cody joined the Army. 11 years later Haley returns to town to take care of her grandmas house after her death. When a threatening note shows up on her porch she goes running to Cody for help. When he refuses her she decides to take a more drastic approach.
I loved this book from start to finish. The characters were heartwarming. I would definitely recommend this book.
