Kash never expects to be hired to protect his ex’s father, Ledger — or to feel an unexpected pull toward him. Ledger once thought Kash would be part of the family, but seeing him again stirs something far more complicated than resentment. As they’re thrown together, old assumptions crumble and a dangerous, undeniable attraction takes its place.
This story had such an undeniable pull between Kash and Ledger — the kind of slow, magnetic attraction that sneaks up on both men and refuses to be ignored. Their connection is laced with emotion, tenderness, and a surprising softness that builds beautifully as the walls between them come down. I loved how the story balanced heat with genuine feeling, letting both men reveal their vulnerabilities in ways that felt honest and deeply human. The emotional undercurrent is strong throughout, making their growing bond not just believable but incredibly moving. A heartfelt, tender romance full of longing, connection, and two men finding something they never expected in each other. This was an MM story with mature content.

Fun start to a new series
I love bodyguard romances, and I really enjoyed the prequel to this series with Steel as one of the MCs.
This was a fun start to a new series. It was a fairly quick read, nothing too angsty. It glosses over a lot of the background of the two MCs, which I was fine with. Sometimes I'm up for a huge detailed backstory, but I thought the book was better without it.
There were a few typos, specifically names of MCs that were obviously wrong (referring to one of the MCs when it was clear another was supposed to be mentioned instead) that got a little distracting.
Really looking forward to the rest of the series.

S, but V. I’m so glad Valon wasn’t a problem and actually helped them get together because I love them
