As the youngest son of a sheikh, Gadiel's tired of living a lie and staying in the closet. His plans to run away with a handsome, flirtatious American are thwarted when Gadiel's family forces a bodyguard on him who's paid to watch his every move.
Will Summers wasn't looking for a new job. When his cousin talks him into becoming the bodyguard of the spoiled prince he's infatuated with, Will is less than enthused. He doesn't expect to start liking his new charge—or thinking of him as his property.
Gadiel hates Will immediately. He's the most infuriating, unshakable man he's ever met. He drives him crazy—but his anger turns into a fixation. He shouldn't be so obsessed with his straight, controlling bodyguard when he's already met the man of his dreams.
Will knows Gadiel's just a job. Giving in, indulging his need to be touched, would be wrong. And Gadiel knows Will can never be his.
But as loyalties begin to shift and lines blur, Will's professional protectiveness twists into possessiveness—and something far more dangerous...
Just a Bit Guarded is a M/M romance about an iron-willed bodyguard, a headstrong young prince, and an attraction they can't resist. Book 15 in the Straight Guys series, but it can be read as a standalone.
