5.0 out of 5 starsEveryoe deserves happiness
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2019
Macho man Loves macho man...not your typical love story, but still a love story. Jared King, spokesman and face for Guardian has resisted the pull between himself and Christian for three long years doing everything he could to push him away. When Christian brings a case of missing children to Guardian Security they are thrown together again and when Christian is attacked Jared has to come to terms with himself or lose the chance for happiness. I would have liked to read the conclusion of the missing children but here's to moving on to the next book to find out!

2.0 out of 5 starsSame sex romance-not my cup of tea
Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2020
I love this series, but did not enjoy this book. I have nothing against same sex relationships if that is your preference, but I am not into reading about the details of their intimate moments. I ended up skipping over all those parts which made this book very short to read. I have a family member who is gay, so that isn’t the issue. When I want to read a romance, I prefer it to be a heterosexual relationship. Story is good, but not interested in the sex scenes. If you aren’t either, skip this read. The rest of the series I have read is awesome and the characters are believable and interesting. Still love her books, the story lines are great-including this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars RE-release
Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2018

This was a good book but I'm super irritated that I bought the "new" release that was actually a second edition. I knew this book sounded familiar but I'm always happy to try a new established author to the m/m genre....

This book originally came out in 2016 and re-released with new cover and new publisher in 2018 so buyer beware

3.0 out of 5 stars I have LOVED the previous books in this series
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2017

I have LOVED the previous books in this series. I was really looking forward to the next story. My biggest issue is that the author seemed more interested in the m/m aspect of this book than the storyline/plot. In the other books, each main character was given to the reader in full detail, including their past. Why they acted a certain way, etc. For example, Jared's scar. You learn what happened in a 1/2 page of dialogue. It's basically glossed over. Yet, this was a major point in his early life that shaped a big part of who he is. And Christian. we know from previous books his Dad & Brother abused him. But, the author does not expand on that in the book. It's a MAJOR factor in shaping who he became. She just plops the 2 together. All in all, I read the book, but if it was the 1st book of this author I had read, I probably would not read anymore of her stuff. Thank God I had read the previous books, & the one that came after this one. for that reason, I can't wait for the next book!!!

In this book it's about Jared and Christian. The why's and how come from their past come to light. The storyline is continually going on from past books. There is now more information on why the evil ones are working on destroying the Guardian Foundation.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not for me
Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2017

If MM romances aren't for you, this one is not for you. They aren't for me so I couldn't really get into this book. The storyline is good, but the book simply wasn't for me.

All her books are heart warming, but I just could not get into m/m. I really tried. Couldn't put my head around it. But the story line is always having sitting on your seat. Can not wait for the next book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Well
Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2017

M/M stories aren't really my thing. Bi occasionally, yes. That being said... I enjoy Kris Michaels ' writing. And have liked everything else they've wrote so I decided to read this too. It's a love story. The sex scenes aren't too graphic. It's good but not quite as good as some of Kris Michaels ' other stories. But it did leave me with a contented feeling. If you liked other Kris Michaels stories, you'll like this one too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good addition to the series.
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2019
Verified Purchase
This was like most of the series, a 3-4-star read for me. The premise here is that Jared has blown hot and cold with Christian, the young man his family rescued from an abusive situation. Part of the problem is that he’s not officially ā€œoutā€ and the other part is that ā€œmisguided hero tries to protect love interestā€ trope.

This m/m romance was action-packed yet incredibly sweet as we’ve come to expect from this author. Once Jared decided to grovel, he did a pretty good job. I feel like unlike in previous novels, the action suspense part of this novel wasn’t at all resolved at the end of this book and rather a specific suspense story arch was further built up in this book that is going to be carried into future books. I still love this series 5 books in and I recommend it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not my favourite, but ok - Jared - Kris Michaels
Reviewed in Canada on October 16, 2017
Verified Purchase
I'm not a fan of M/M stories and normally wouldn't choose to read one. For the sake of continuity I chose to read this one. I liked Christian very much and although in previous books I disliked Jared I found he redeemed himself in this book. He was an unlikeable character in Jason's book, very arrogant and abrasive. He came around in Book 5.
