Ninja Girl
Genre: YA Contemporary Romance
Release Date: March 30th 3017
Seventeen-year-old Snow-Soon Lee kicks ass--literally. She teaches
at her family-owned martial arts gym, The Academy, and cares more about
training to be the next Bruce Lee than hooking up. In fact, Snow's never even
been kissed. But when Girls Night rolls around, Snow decides to prove to her
friends (and herself) that she's not just some boring tomboy. Impulsively, she
kisses a hot stranger and even manages to escape his two security guards.
One stolen kiss…
Ash Stryker's senior year sucks. His politician father pulled him out of
Chariot High, separating him from his championship-winning soccer team. Now
he's stuck at a prissy private school with no friends, no team and no chance of
being scouted. On top of that, thanks to the death threats his dad's received,
Ash has a security tail aka professional babysitters. When the mystery girl
from the movies shows up at his school, rappelling from the rafters, Ash knows
one thing: he won't let her get away again.
One interesting job proposition…
After a seemingly random attack, Ash's mother surprises everyone. She hires
Snow to be Ash's personal bodyguard until after the election. But can Snow's
kick-ass skills hold up against the rising threats to Ash's family? More
importantly, can Ash convince his ninja girl to screw ethics and kiss him again?
Opposites attract in this YA romance where a smooth talker meets his match in
the tough girl who (literally) sweeps him off his feet. Moral of the story:
Sometimes even bad boys need a bodyguard.
Absolutely, positively adorkable! No, I didn't read that book, but I totally plan to now! I love that the MC is Korean. And this is a great twist on the 'damsel in distress' character, because it is turned around. Super-squeaky clean; no words-bombs, no behind-the-doors or suggestive topics. Total badass MC. I love her!
MY RATING: 4 OF 5 STARS.
