"Jude: Reaching the top of the country music charts brings out the crazy, and there's no one crazier than my ex. Unfortunately, his threats to out me are escalating. Enter the bodyguard of my dreams. I'd probably chafe under his constant presence if his attention to my body wasn't so ... ah ... thorough. Now I have to worry about outing myself to millions of fans if I can't keep my hands off him in public. Derek: Now I'm an ex-Marine turned babysitter. If I have to hear Jude sing his mega-hit Bluebells one more time, I might murder him myself, and after 6 years in special ops, I know my way around a weapon. Unfortunately, so does he. Except his arsenal includes washboard abs and a killer set of pipes. I've faced guns, knives, explosives and yet it's Jude Marian who may end up bringing me to my knees"--Publisher description.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

My 2nd favorite in the series submitted by ValerieL on August 1, 2019, 11:43am Jumping Jude is the third book in the Made Marian series by Lucy Lennox. These books are just so awesome! I'm probably overdoing it in my praise, but I absolutely love them! I absolutely adore this series and the Marian men! This book comes in a very close 2nd as far as my favorite in the series.

This book belongs to Jude and Derek, two men who have yet to come out to their families or the world. Jude belongs to a hit country band and country music and its fans aren't always the most accepting in the world (this is the view of the book, not necessarily my own view!). Derek on the other hand comes from a military background and a very conservative Southern Baptist family, neither is conducive to coming out. So here we have two guys who are attracted to each other and they don't realize the other is gay as well.

The characters in this book are incredibly complex and well-developed. The plot is also complex but still easy to follow along with. I loved the ending and I'm thrilled that Jude and Derek were able to remain together.
