Stalkers, death threats, and overzealous fans force Ricky, a pampered and gorgeous rock star, to accept his manager’s suggestion and employ a body guard.
Jim, the self-confident and experienced body guard, takes his job seriously. In order to adequately protect Ricky, he must sleep in his room. Jim does his best to maintain self-control, but the close proximity to his client and Ricky’s androgynous good looks and sexy body are too much for Jim.
After an attempted kidnapping, the traumatized rock star looks for comfort from the reticent body guard and the sparks begin to fly.
This was a sweet short story, only 79 pages. I enjoyed the dialogue and the sizzling chemistry between Ricky and Jim even though Ricky’s personality was irritating at times and he deserved to have his pampered butt spanked.

Ok, I'll admit it. I have a thing for spoiled-celebrity/bodyguard stories. If you enjoy them too, along with some mindless escapism, you'll find this a fun read. On that level, this book works. But if you're looking for any kind of character development or serious plot, this is not for you!

This story was okay. It was very short and, as a result, very rushed. I felt that the characters reached certain levels far, far too quickly within a twelve hour period of meeting each other. The reason for Jim to be introduced in Ricky's life had the potential to be interesting, but the resolution was kind of anti-climactic.

Generally I like Jade Falconer’s stories, this one, not so much. All the reasons I liked the one above, I didn’t like this. Anyway, Ricky is a rock star who has a stalker problem. His manager hires Jim as a bodyguard without Ricky’s approval. He’s pissed but decides Jim is hot and he’ll tease him. Doesn’t seem to work but the next day Ricky is attacked at an event and Jim saves his life and they get funky back at the house. Okay, Jim is a professional bodyguard and when Ricky suggests they sleep in the same bed the first night he goes for it and even flirts a bit. Then the next day he quits his job but promises to stay and protect Ricky and they are totally smitten. Ummm. How could a professional just completely toss his integrity aside in a 2 hour period? And Ricky keeps talking about how the guy is his savior. You don’t want a relationship based on that, really. And if you quit how are you going to live? You need money. So you are going to live off Ricky? Which is what he said everyone always wants him for his money? Bah. Anyway, if the story had take place over a period of weeks or months I could have gone for it. But he hadn’t even known the guy 24 hours when they were madly in love. It won’t turn me off the author at all because I have read many of her shorts I enjoyed but this one just didn’t work.

I did not think this story would be this bad. But already after a few hours of meeting each other one of them is already jerking of because they can not contain themselves. And that was the bodyguard!
And in less that 24 hours they have a steadfast relationship. There is something fundamentally wrong with that.
the cons:
the setting was obvious
the characters were flat, predictable and unimaginative
the talking were tacky
The Development was.. well, not developing..
the pros:
Jim's "nice inc" comment
When Ricky sat on Jim (even if it was a total random action)
All in all a disappointing read.

This is only about 30 pages of actual story, fairly large font. It's very quick and thus very low on story or character development. But if you accept it for what it is, just a quick little morsel, it's actually pretty good. I enjoyed it.

No personage's development. No plot. No good sex.
Everything's ridiculous in this book. Everything happened so fast.
