Valor on the Move by Keira Andrews
5.0
Keira Andrews writes the kind of books I like to read. This one was so good I could hardly put it down.
It had all the things I love in a book. The sexual tension was tangible from the moment Rafa meets Shane, it was so well done it gave me goosebumps. This was a slow burn with an amazing build up you can't help but turn the page to see what's coming next and before you know it you have sat down for four straight hours reading. The sex when it happened was perfect and worth the wait.
Rafa did come off as a little juvenile in the way he expressed himself and his constant need for validation was immature and somewhat annoying but maybe that was because he was overprotected and inexperienced in many ways.
The age difference added to the forbiddingness of the relationship on top of the protector/protectee aspect of it.
I don't know nor do I care about how accurate the white house or secret service depictions are. Everything I know about the white house I learnt from the 'West Wing' and 'Scandal' and they probably took as much creative liberties as the authors of books do with real life places. I don't expect perfect accuracy from them and it only annoys me if it is something I am particularly conversant with, if not I assume the author researched the important aspects of the story but it doesn't take away from it because I don't know the difference. I am blissful in my ignorance in these kinds of situations.
I hope Keira writes Darnell's story some day, he sounded like a guy whose story I would like to read.
