About this listen

He'd give his life to protect the president's son. But he never expected to risk his heart.

Growing up gay in the White House hasn't been easy for Rafael Castillo. Codenamed "Valor" by the Secret Service, Rafa feels anything but brave as he hides in the closet and tries to stay below the radar in his last year of college. His father's presidency is almost over, and he just needs to stick to his carefully crafted plan. Once his family's out of the spotlight, he can be honest with his conservative parents about his sexuality and his dream of being a chef.

It's definitely not part of Rafa's plan to get a new Secret Service agent who's a walking wet dream, but he's made it this long keeping his desires to himself. Besides, it's not like Shane Kendrick would even look at him twice if it wasn't his job.

Shane's worked his way up through the Secret Service ranks, and while protecting the president's shy, boring son isn't his dream White House assignment, it's an easy enough task since no one pays Rafa much attention. He discovers there's a vibrant young man beneath the timid public shell, and while he knows Rafa has a crush on him, he assures himself it's harmless. Shane's never had room for romance in his life, and he'd certainly never cross that line with a protectee. Keeping Rafa safe at any cost is Shane's mission.

But as Rafa gets under his skin, will they both put their hearts on the line?

Contains mature themes.

Sweet and passionate, I loved this tale of forbidden love. Age gap, American Royalty (aka Presidential Family) and Bodyguard all coming together to make for a sizzling hot drama with delightfully sweet moments as well as some very gasp-worthy twists in the plot. The HEA is hard fought and well deserved and brings such a wonderful feeling as you close the book.
Iggy Toma does a spectacular job narrating this story in Audio and brings our men to live with the perfect voices and an extra level of drama to the suspenseful scenes.

suspenseful and sweet!

I really enjoyed this book and the storyline but as an Australian, it’s really hard to listen to someone doing a really bad aussie accent. I’ve heard some bad ones but this was one of the worst. Why not get an Australian to narrate the Australian parts or use a voice actor that can actually do a better accent. I do normally like Iggy Tomas narrations but he should not do Australian accents as he sounded like a cross between Irish, English and Kiwi.

Loved the storyline but not the Aussie accent

Rafa, 21, is the youngest son of the US President and has lived most of his life in the closet. He falls for Shane, 40, who is newly assigned to his security detail. Both have a lot to lose if things go wrong. I wondered whether this would be tacky given the age difference, but it wasn’t. It explored the pressures of keeping a lid on your sexuality for the sake of politics, had some thrilling action scenes, and developed the two characters well. Excellent performance by Iggy Toma!

Highly enjoyable!

I fell into the pages and didn’t come out till I read, The End.
A beautiful book, wonderfully written, and paced very well.

This was a beautiful journey where I met Rafael Castillo and Shane Kendrick.

Read the book and then listened to the audiobook where the magnificent narration by Iggy Toma brought the book to another level, an easy 5 stars from me both the audiobook and the book.

Brilliant!
