Between his time in the Marines and the years he’s spent working at Hamilton Security, there’s not much that takes Greg Wright by surprise anymore. That is until he gets assigned to guard a promising new candidate in the upcoming election; a man from Greg’s past and the one person he’d hoped to never see again.Christopher Brooks has made a name for himself as an honest, hardworking, and fair man. … fair man. As a candidate in the election for Governor of Illinois, his positive views on minority rights, especially those in the LGBTQ community have gained him considerable support as well as the attention of some of the more radical groups. When he begins receiving threats, warning him to drop out of the race, he concedes to the need for a bodyguard. That is, until he comes face to face with the man hired to protect him. The only person he’d ever given his heart to and the same man who shattered it.
Forced to spend nearly every minute together, the two men must find a way to get along and put their past hurts aside, but as the election heats up, so do things between the two men. Will they be able to put their past differences aside in order to keep Christopher safe and will they finally be able to find a peaceful resolution?

This second chance romance between Christopher and Greg was sweet and steamy all rolled together. The chemistry was off the charts and the peak into Micah and Landon’s life was was beautiful. I’m excited to see if any more stories come out of the Hamilton Security world.
They were young, both eighteen, one from a warm family and one severely neglected, friends for life, who spent every free minute together, until something happened between them, something devastating and both have their own version of it.
Greg works at Hamilton Security, a company and the best of the best in human protection.
Greg’s new case will be guarding a political candidate who is running for governor.
Entering Christopher Brooks’ office, Greg can’t believe his eyes. The man who shattered his heart many years ago is the same man he has to protect.
Christopher needs protection 24/7 and before him stands the man who broke his heart but never really left it.
Throughout this journey we get to know the devastating truth about what happened, alternating between Greg and Christopher’s point of view. Believe me when I say it’s heart wrenching, one box of tissues is not enough. My heart hurt for them.
We are also witness to the approaching danger. Greg alone isn’t enough to hold the threat back, he needs his team to stand with him.
A more than wonderful story, widely told, it’s about second chances, hurt and confusion, trust, distrust, broken hearts, lost hearts, mending hearts, hate, and above all, love. I relished in the warmth and emotions of this story’s content.
Their journey is written in the most enthralling way you can imagine, the hurt and love was all deeply tangible. The content was convincingly woven into this story, I couldn’t put it down until I saw ‘The End’
Overall it was a deep moving story with wonderfully developed characters.
These two beautiful loving souls, with big hearts overflowing with love will stay with you for a long long time, I couldn’t let them go.
We can follow them from where they were young till twenty years later, two souls always meant to be together.

To say Greg Wright was taken by surprise when he discovers his newest case is the only man he’s every loved, Christopher Brooks, is an understatement. Christopher is running for Govenor of Illinois and someone doesn’t want him to win. Past feelings, emotions, and betrayal all come into play in this story. I totally love, love a good second-chance romance and this one hit all my buttons. The chemistry between Greg and Christopher is amazing. I love these two characters. You could probably read this as a standalone, but I would at least recommend starting with [book:Found|38596586] by this author. It will introduce you to Hamilton’s Heroes, as the characters from that book do crossover, but like I said, not necessary.
This story is a wonderful example of taking advantage of second chances. In this story we meet Greg and Topher. Topher is a politician running for governor and Greg works at Hamilton Security. Greg is brought in to protect Topher, after he starts receiving death threats. The only catch is these two know each other and their relationship ended badly. Can these two get beyond the past and work together to keep Topher safe? Secrets and misinformation have caused the current animosity between the MCs. When all is said and done will these two be able to move beyond their past and finally have the love and life they deserve. Only Annabella Michaels can weave a story of angst filled second chance love. Another 5 star story. Can’t wait for her next story in this series.
Annabella Michaels never disappoints! It was great to go back to Hamiltons Hero’s again. I loved Greg and Christopher so much. Misunderstandings and heart break have molded their lives. 20 years later they meet again when Greg is assigned to protect a political candidate who’s been threatened. I was so happy they got their second chance. This story had me hooked from the beginning. A slow burn but sexy book. I highly recommend!!
