Publisher's Synopsis
Patrick is trying to balance what he wants with what he can have. As a prince in line to the throne, his movements are under scrutiny every single day. The only time he can be himself is with his family behind locked doors or alone at home. Having his extended family gunning for those of different orientations makes life more volatile, and he orders his bodyguard to train him for what he believes is inevitable - an assassination attempt.
Kieren has been Patrick's bodyguard for several years, and he has huge admiration for everything the man has to put up with. But lately, things have stepped up, and lives are in the balance. When Patrick asks - no orders - him to train him to protect not only himself but his family, Kieren's heart breaks. No one should have to become that, but he will do everything in his power to ensure Patrick is safe, even if that means giving his life.
When a particularly heavy training session brings forth Patrick's emotions, Kieren struggles to contain his own until Patrick kisses him - then all bets are off.
This is an MM book containing impact play, BDSM scenes and D/s dynamics in all forms. It also has lots of loving, friendships, family drama and, of course, a HEA.
