Forbidden love of the highest order!
This was a plausible slow progression as Secret Service agent Ethan, for the first time ever, falls in love, and it’s a fucking revelation. There’s just one snag. He’s in charge of the president's safety, and anything other than ultimate professionalism cannot be tolerated.
However, even though friendship isn’t allowed, Ethan can’t resist Jack’s down to earth, honorable idealism, and Jack finds an honest supportive shoulder to lean on from the man who keeps him alive and well.
Feelings between these two inevitably develop which of course, blossoms into so much more!
This brings elements of Flynn’s [b:Transfer of Power|184655|Transfer of Power (Mitch Rapp, #3)|Vince Flynn|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1442152192l/184655._SY75_.jpg|2127844] and the movie Olympus Has Fallen. Swoony romance and intense action against the backdrop of a smart complex political game, this was one compelling page turner!
