Tal Bauer has the corner on the market for political thriller romance novels!

Heart-pumping romance set amongst the chaos of spies and terrorists trying to kill the President of the United States.

Jack is the newly elected President of the USA. Ethan is the head of his Secret Service detail. Jack expects the presidency to be demanding and hectic, but he doesn’t anticipate the loneliness and isolation. It leads him to befriend Ethan, and despite the fact that there are strict rules against an agent socializing with a protectee, he can’t ignore the draw he feels to him. There’s just something about Jack that Ethan can’t walk away from him.

Their romance is slow-burn, taking the widower Jack by surprise. And then all hell lets loose as unknown forces put the President under attack, kidnapping Ethan in the process. Who do you trust when it turns out spies and terrorists have infiltrated everywhere?

Now it’s not just their love on the line, it’s their lives too.

“When you love someone, really love them, you’ll do anything. Figure anything out. Because having them in your life is worth more to you than living without them. That’s how I felt about Ethan.”

Enemies of the State is book one of the Executive Office Trilogy. Can’t wait to see what’s in store for these two and the Presidency.

I listened to this as an Audiobook, and John Solo, did a fantastic job capturing these two and the fast-paced, intense nature of this book. Not that we expected anything different, John is an amazing narrator.
