Tight End

3.5

If you enjoy 80's style Jackie Collins drama, and who doesn't?, you'll like this. [a:Devon McCormack|7327303|Devon McCormack|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1420651172p2/7327303.jpg] is a fun writer and he doesn't skimp on the fire works. Both of the MCs have issues to spare and thankfully they come together.

We have Tad an out and proud NFL player with a wild man rep who is quietly a caring individual but afraid to let his softer side show. Tad comes with a whole entourage of people with their own issues: his assistant Darren, his PR person Debra, his dad Kiernan who has pushed his son to an NFL career while wanting him to be less public about his love life, a nasty ex, a missing mother and a serial killer out to get him. Damn that is enough for three books!

Bryce is the FBI agent sent to be his undercover bodyguard and he too has a back story that makes him dismissive of his own self worth and thus willing to take a bullet. As I said DRAMA.

Yes the author uses three words when one will do but I enjoyed this. The Bodyguard is one of my favorite movies and also a favorite trope. Devon's penchant for more pays off handsomely during the scorching sex scenes. You get a real feel that these are two guys who at first are just f**king and enjoying it. The caring comes later and amen to that.

There is a lot of back and forth between these two but none of the misunderstandings last long and the make-ups are worth it.
