The Billionaire's Bodyguard (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
This is the story of Alex and Jesse - best friends forever and now maybe more. Alex is threatened (not that unusual given his position) but Jesse thinks he isn't taking it seriously. Alex has been in love with Jesse forever and he loves having him around, but he needs for Jesse to figure out on his own that maybe they are really more than friends. When the threats gets more deadly, Jesse sticks to Alex like glue - and then some :) Some nice plot twists - although I would have liked that part of the story to be expanded and fleshed out a bit - and a hot and sweet ending. This is my first time reading author Erin M. Leaf and it will not be my last, The Billionaire’s Bodyguard had me from page one. Ms. Leaf does a great job of bringing two best friends together and making me fall in love with their story.Alex is the rich humble man who is openly bisexual. He has a best friend Jesse. Jesse is straight or so he thinks. Jesse comes to Alex when a girlfriend will not leave his apartment. Alex opens his home to his best friend. When someone threatens Alex’s life Jesse will do anything to save him. Even pretend to be his lover. What starts out as a cover soon becomes reality.I loved the connection these characters have. The friendship transforming to more really was believable. The cliché part of the straight friend finding out he is gay made me do that groan oh no thing, but Ms. Leaf really recovered from that with beautiful writing that kept me turning the pages. When you want a beautiful love story between two unforgettable friends this is the book to pick up. Five Shooting Stars !!
