My rating: 4 of 5 stars
CIA agent Stefan Mortimer expects a quiet assignment while temporarily working with Bodyguards Inc., but everything changes when Kirby Devlin and his two young relatives stumble into his life, terrified and out of options. Kirby has been on the run for months, trying to protect the children from a threat he can no longer outrun. Stefan steps in, determined to keep them safe as danger closes in. But as the crisis forces them into close quarters, trust grows, walls fall, and a deeper connection forms between them. Kirby begins to fear not just the people chasing them, but the risk of opening his heart to the one man strong enough to protect it. Their survival depends on Stefan’s skills — but their future depends on whether Kirby can believe in love again.
I loved this story that delivered a gripping mix of drama and heart as CIA agent Stefan Mortimer is thrown into a situation far more personal than anything he expected from his quiet stint with Bodyguards Inc. The tension hits immediately when Kirby Devlin arrives with two terrified children and a past full of shadows. What follows is a fast‑paced, emotionally charged journey where every moment feels steeped in risk — not just from the enemies, but from the growing bond between Stefan and Kirby. The romance unfolds with a beautiful balance of caution and longing. Kirby’s fierce protectiveness and deep exhaustion make his vulnerability feel incredibly real, while Stefan’s steady strength and quiet compassion turn him into exactly the kind of anchor Kirby needs. Their connection builds slowly, tenderly, even as the danger around them escalates. What really stands out is how the story blends high‑stakes suspense with genuine emotional warmth. It’s a tale about trust, found family, and the terrifying hope of letting someone in when you’ve spent too long running. This was an MM story with mature content.
