3.5
I was excited for this one because I LOVE What Was Meant To Be and have been curious about Tyler's other books. This one sounded like it would be the perfect mix of the age-gap drama vibes that What Was Meant to Be had but sprinkled in the celebrity angle plus bodyguard! I could not wait to try this one, and overall, I might've hyped it up a little too much in my head. It wasn't bad, and I really enjoyed it, but I was left wanting more in the end. I wanted more tension between Shay and Damian. It felt like they made things seem like they were going to have a lot more issues to be together, and granted, they both had a lot of baggage, but at the end of the day, it wasn't that hard for them to pick each other. If you like celebrity bodyguard romances, this one will be perfect.

Shay Eastwood & Damien Hunt
This story follows up and coming actress and Hollywood starlet Shay Eastwood and her long-time bodyguard Damien. In the beginning of the story Shay catches her boyfriend of 3-4 years? in the act of cheating with another woman at a club. This incidence only frees up her mind, and allows her to look at her bodyguard Damien the way she used to before her and her boyfriend started dating, with lust and want. Little did Shay know, Damien had been fighting those same feelings for longer than he can remember. Though Shays bestie Veronica always swore he had the hots for her.
There is little angst between these two and they end up giving into these mutual feelings fairly quickly. Which hey, no complaints here! I loved the story and the history both of these characters brought to the story, and though I found the ending to be a little predictable, I'm glad I read it.
The spice is phenomenal, of course. This is Q.B. Tyler we're talking about after all. I would definitely rate it a 4/5🌶️ for heat lol. Another banger from a tremendous author!
