Adam Spencer – “The Rockstar”
Here’s what I know—some people aren’t meant to find love.
And as much as I want to be someone’s everything, that’s not meant for me.
After a painful breakup, I channeled all my hurt into a song that has skyrocketed my band, Fallen Angel, to the top of the charts.
Now I need protection from the one person who was supposed to love me no matter what—my mother.
Whether I want him or not, I now have a sexy, silver-tongued southern charmer as my 24/7 bodyguard.
I’ve tried not to fall for him, because I don’t do relationships. They hurt too much.
But Michael has me thinking I could take one more chance to find love.
Or was I meant to be alone like I'd thought all along?
Michael Coleman –“Phantom”
I’ve always been a protector. During my career as a Navy SEAL, my duty was to find undisclosed information and protect my team.
Now I need to protect the sexy rockstar I love flirting with every time he walks in the door to our EHM office.
Adam Spencer lights me up like no one ever has. And that’s saying something.
I’ll do whatever it takes to protect him, even from himself.
Have I finally found the love I’ve been hoping for with my rockstar?
Patrick Griffin
I hurt him. I didn’t mean to.
Now he’s gone, and I deserve it.
As a linebacker in the NFL, I've never found the right time to come out of the closet. Not even when I promised Cole I would.
But now, with Cole's band, Fallen Angel, in the spotlight along with my team, the pressure is mounting. Everyone thinks we're just best friends, but the weight of my secret is tearing us apart.
And it just might be too late to save us when I can.
Cole Bradley
Is it wrong for me to want the world to know I’m in love with Patrick Griffin and have been since we were eight-years-old?
He is the love of my life, but it’s been years of waiting and excuses.
All our friends, even his teammates, have a public life. So why can’t we?
He promised it would be different in Portland.
But then he tells yet another reporter he’s single. I need a break. It’s perfect timing since our band is heading out on tour.
I don’t know if I can live without him. But I don’t think I can do forever in the closet.
It’s always been Patrick for me, but is it too much to ask for the world to know he’s mine too?
Austin “Daredevil” Wentworth
There's a thin line between love and hate, and I hate that I'm still in love with him.
I hate Greer Rowan. I Hate how I feel when he looks at me. I hate the way things ended, and I hate that he’s my older brother’s best friend.
But what I hate most is how badly I still want him—and how, despite everything, I'm still hopelessly in love with him.
And now Greer has hired me to do the impossible with him on an international excursion that I know is going to land us together in his bed. The problem is, I might not hate that.
Greer Rowan
I’ve been such a fool.
I had my reasons for doing what I did, and I know I hurt him. Austin may never understand, but I’m going to force him to hear me out. And if pushing all his protector buttons to get him to pretend to be my bodyguard boyfriend at my niece’s wedding won’t do the trick, I’ll dare him to do something else for one reason. That angry man is all I want.
Austin is the love of my life. We’re supposed to be together, and I’ve already spent too many years without him.
They call me Dreamboat for a reason. My friends say I’d flirt with my shadow if it got me laid, and they’re not wrong. I’m a good-looking man with a high sex drive and I love a good time. I know what I like and have no trouble getting it.
As a former Navy SEAL, I’m highly trained to handle dangerous situations. The security firm I work for with my three best friends in Portland has given me a new lease on life, away from danger.
Everything is great until I piss off the wrong people. And they want me dead.
Now this protector needs a protector.
And he happens to be the one man I can't forget. The one I hooked up with a few months ago in Vegas. The one who sees me for who and what I am and still seems to want me. And that’s scarier than any enemy I've ever faced..
