Fighting Attraction: A M/M Bodyguard Romance
Sentinel Protection Duology Book 1
***Complete Content Warning***
This book will not be an easy read, I’m warning you now. While it will have my signature mix of heartbreak and humor, this is still a very deep book. There is a scene of sexual assault that will play a huge role in the story, as well as lots of talk about – and a flashback scene of – conversion therapy.
These events really shape the story and are a large part of this book. If you feel like this would be too difficult for you to read, please don’t continue. The last thing I would ever want is for someone to be hurt by something that I wrote.
I wrote this book because these things happen too much. And while it’s difficult to read, it’s real life, and these stories deserve to be told. Some areas may seem rushed, but this is a book and to be able to fit everything in that would happen in real life is just not attainable. I tried my best to make it as close to reality as possible, and I hope I did these subjects justice.
BRUNO
I always said I was straight and it was the truth until him.
Damon is my friend and although he’s always flirted, I never had the courage to take things further. It didn’t matter either because he was swept off the market before I could even figure out what I was feeling.
Now though, he’s newly single.
I want to tell him how I feel and see if it’s the same for him, but one night everything changes.
He’s attacked and I can’t seem to bring myself to confess what I’ve been feeling. It wouldn’t be right considering the circumstances. Only, my heart doesn’t agree.
DAMON
Being around security guards has always been the norm for me. It comes with the job when you work for celebrities.
Normally, I would just ignore them. They’re there to do a job just like me and don’t want distractions, but Bruno was different.
Over time, I learned pushing his buttons and getting under his skin was fun. Flirting with him though? Even better. I never had to worry because he was straight. We developed a friendship, but when he starts to push me away, I’m not sure why.
One night, everything changes, though. I get a little too drunk and a man refuses to take no for an answer, but Bruno is there to save me.
Only now, he’s looking at me differently and I can’t figure out why.
Will we both be able to overcome what we’ve endured or is there too much in our past destined to keep us apart?
Fighting Attraction is book one in the Sentinel Protection Series, but can be read as a stand-alone or as a part of the series.
