The Bodyguard and the Rock Star, Book 3 of the Bodyguard Series (Book) - 1/29/2009 6:44:17 AM
Pretty Natasha likes a good fight and fits right in with the rough and tumble lifestyle of the rock star she's contracted to protect. In Christy Tillery French's "The Bodyguard and the Rock Star," sometimes Natasha is her own worst enemy in tracking down a cyberstalker and her finance, Striker, constantly drops his business to visit Natasha in different Southern cities on the tour. Half romance and half suspense, Christy French keeps the reader guessing at what comes next in this delightful romantic comedy.
5 star!
Chasing Secrets (Book) - 1/29/2009 6:43:26 AM
With few chances to catch a breath, the reader runs with ATF Agent Rowan because she knows the secrets of others – powerful others driven by ego and greed. Betrayed by someone within the force, Rowan trust no one in law enforcement. That is, until Garret, a detective, earns not only her trust but her interest. Christy Tillery French portrays Agent Rowan in Chasing Secrets as an elite agent who is determined to get the evidence she has collected against a charismatic televangelist into safe hands. Agent Rowan faces fists and bullets but falters only when it comes to her dog, Zeus, a large Weimaraner who has come to her rescue many times. Fast paced action splashed with romance makes this a compelling read.
5 stars!
The Bodyguard and the Show Dog, Book 2 of the Bodyguard Series (Book) - 1/29/2009 6:42:02 AM
Picture the nuttiness of Cameron Diaz and the hard kick of Angelina Jolie and you get Natasha Chamberlain. In “The Bodyguard and the Show Dog,” Christy Tillery French’s main character Natasha is as messy and off-putting as the Pug show dog she’s hired to protect. Somehow both are endearing in the escapades that romp through the pages. Who would think the competition of a dog show would be fierce enough to threaten harm to the award-winning Pug? Natasha reluctantly takes her first case as a protection specialist and finds the bite worse than expected once she starts investigating. When Striker, Natasha’s mentor and lover, tries to protect her, she demands the space to make mistakes. Returning minor characters Pit, Bigun and Roger are a delight when they try to help. French weaves action, romance, and mystery into this comedic novel. 5 star!

The Bodyguard and the Rock Star, Book 3 of the Bodyguard Series (Book) - 5/22/2008 9:12:20 AM
From first page to last, Christy Tillery French has penned a heart-stopping, fast-paced novel; her third in the series, titled THE BODYGUARD AND THE ROCK STAR. French is an accomplished author with several published works of fiction. With the stroke of each key, French involves her readers in the center of one fracas after another. Using picturesque characters, French draws on reader’s imagination to introduce multifaceted three-dimensional individuals that add humor and reality to every plot.
In “The Bodyguard and the Rock Star” Natasha hires on to protect a quaint but vividly unpredictable and often childlike, rock star. Chapter after chapter, Christy Tillery French holds readers captive using unexpected intrigue, scorching romance and rapidly moving excitement. From gut-wrenching laughter to sudden tears, this author presents readers with a drama-filled tale that satisfies all your emotions. Readers will applaud Natasha’s ingenuity as she proves repeatedly, to her soul mate and her client, that she is good at her chosen profession.
If you are looking for something to distract you from today’s stress or entertain you for a brief period of time, grab a copy of ‘The Bodyguard and the Rock Star’ by Christy Tillery French. I predict Mrs. French will soon top the bestseller list with this third title in her thrilling ‘The Bodyguard’ series.

Other characters adding to the confusion and mayhem are Natasha's menopausal mother and a gay cousin, thinking of themselves as investigators, who continue to interfere with Natasha's plans.

Natasha's inexperience and clumsy attempts to help come off as charming to the reader. I wanted to shake her and I identified completely with her mother. Thank you for the fun read.

The Bodyguard (Book) - 3/13/2004 8:57:33 AM
If the reader is in the mood for a delightfully, entertaining, absorbing mystery, The Bodyguard by Christy Tillery French is a must read! Right from the first page, the plot moves into a series of interesting, attention-holding events involving independent, high-spirited Natasha, a "would-be" bodyguard, bumbling her way through continuous mishaps in an ever-growing, complicated plot with twists and turns sure to hold readers glued to their seats. Natasha's sense of humor, her fierce determination to succeed even while experiencing defeat, and her charming femininity, endear her to readers. Other characters in The Bodyguard ring true to life. Their interactions with one another, their dialog, and their authenticity make them folks we understand and enjoy. We experience with them the same gamut of emotions they feel as they face their conflicts and difficulties. A witty, humorous, delightfully entertaining light mystery by a writer whose forte is this special genre. The Bodyguard promises a rich and fulfilling reading experience for everyone. I loved the story and can't wait to read the continuing Bodyguard series sure to offer more delightfully entertaining adventures involving Natasha and her friends.

The Bodyguard (Book) - 3/3/2004 3:54:54 PM
Beautifully fresh faced with uninhibited innocence, Natasha wants to shake up the world. Natasha, a.k.a. Nattie and Dudette, is scrambling for excitement and meaning in her life when she is given an opportunity to act as a bodyguard. Since Natasha is not one to pass a problem on, she jumps in with unabashed passion. Natasha is the kind of gal that would play chicken with a guy whose strapping his foot to the gas pedal. She is gutsy and blind to danger. She also turns every setback into an occasion to learn and grow. Natasha does and says what so many of us would love to.
Natasha, in protecting wealthy Roger Valentine, takes on the likes of a “gun toting computer nerd” with creative intuition and gusto while learning the ropes of being a bodyguard. There is a lot of humor with Natasha and many tender spots like the one where she rescues a Weimeraner named Brutus. She is a true humanitarian and the reader finds,when introduced to her mother, that Nattie is an acorn that didn’t fall far from the tree.
The Bodyguard is a four dimensional captivating suspense luring the reader to believe they have solved the case. The author, writing in a lightening bolt style of energy, shocks the reader with a striking surprising twist. This is definitely a story filled with chuckles, tears, true to life details and a must know what happens next story line.
The Bodyguard is the fourth offering and the first series by talented author Christy Tillery French. The book is written in a seductively enchanting and charming style woven with a blend of humor and delicacy which makes it a “must read”.

I downloaded the free preview from page 92. I must say THIS is a book I WANT to go buy! The details and descriptions made me feel just like I was there as a silent witness to the crime itself! I could NOT take my eyes off of the pages. Each line had my eyes hungry for the next word to come. I wanted to know what the violently smooth woman was going to do next. It is thrilling and exciting. I too cannot wait to get this book! This sounds like one of the best made for TV movies to come. I am VERY excited to read this book. One hot book and one BRILLIANT author. I appreciate an author that can write like this! Christy French has a new fan.

Chasing Horses (Book) - 5/11/2002 9:01:47 PM
I thoroughly enjoyed Chasing Horses - a page-turner to the end. Ms. French kept me intrigued and entertained with the main character, Ricki, who is bold and brassy and can't seem to keep herself out of trouble. Chasing Horses makes you think about relationships, family and the "what if" in life's journey – all with a happy ending:)
Chasing Horses (Book) - 12/4/2001 1:33:45 PM
Intriguing & undeniably funny…
Having watched my family and some friends enter into sticky divorces or problematic relationships, I’m always intrigued with finding out how other’s coped and handled their unique situation.
CHASING HORSES has a way of drawing you into each character and letting you know the truth and consequences behind each of their actions. While this book doesn’t hold back on the reality of the situation, happiness, heartache and for some pain, I believe these characters and ultimately I believe that Love will have the final say…
A very interesting and intriguing read.
Wayne's Dead (Book) - 12/4/2001 12:29:06 PM
This novel looks like it's full of suspense!
From reading the excerpt, I think it will be on my "to purchase" list for books to read.
I think the author is well educated and did her homework on multiple personality disorder, which will add life to the novel.
I think it would make a great movie...

I Am Your Addiction by Jonathan S. French (Article) - 5/20/2007 8:12:20 PM
The first time I heard "I am your addiction" was in recovery. I searched the internet using the phrases I could remember. I just had to hear it again. Does your son know what an incredible impact he has had on so many people? I heard people say "the first time i heard that..." followed by their own recovery story. Wow. Thanks. And kudos to Jonathan S. French. On behalf of many :)
The History of Makeup (Article) - 5/17/2007 5:08:02 AM
A most interesting and informative article.
Your few lines of opinion at the end, I feel were not out of order. After all, the writer is allowed to express just that.
I find it amazing that women especially have gone to such extent to beautify themselves, at the cost of their own lives, that to me seems so pointless.
I am all for harnessing natural beauty, less being more when it comes to makeup...
You wont be offended then if i write along these lines,not on makeup, but another way of bringing out the inner beauty.
Ty for the inspiration as well.
Kind regards

As a makup-aholic, I really enjoyed this article! And you are right. While the world does focus on the outside in excess, it is vital to be comfortable with who you are. When you are at peace, it shows on your face - with or without makeup. I do believe we should look our best - what is that saying? Any old barn looks better with a coat of paint (sorry, smile).

The History of Makeup (Article) - 1/10/2007 8:14:32 PM
interesting article, but I think the authors personal opinion at the end was out of place. We can concenrate on the inside, but realize everyone see's the outside first. It is wonderful for people to take pride in their appearance, as long as it is not dangerous. Why not work on both? Looking our best is linked with self respect.

Meghann certainly is all of the above. Her looks, her smile, her attitude, and her love for her mother, has been handed down to her by the one person who loves her unconditionally. Y O U.
Your love for Meghann shines beautifully in these words. This is a poem of love and devotion as only a mother can have. Thnx for sharing this with us, Christy, I enjoyed reading this very much.
May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, may he keep that bright smile on Meghann's face forever, and may He be with the both of you, and your sides constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little den sister, Barbie
