Intoxicating by Onley James (Paperback)

The first book in Onley James’s Elite Protection Services series — an MM romance with a guaranteed happy-ever-after and no cliffhanger.

Lincoln Hudson has just been handed the easiest job in the world: babysit the spoiled son of a conservative senator, keep him out of trouble, and pocket a six-figure paycheck he desperately needs. Wyatt’s father insists his son needs a firm hand and some discipline, and one look at Wyatt tells Linc the man isn’t wrong.

As the closeted gay son of a family-values senator, Wyatt Edgeworth has a reckless streak and a love of partying that’s just cost him eight months of his life — and could cost his father the election. Now he’s got a babysitter. A very sexy babysitter. When a drunken confession brings his attraction to Linc out into the open, the two reach an understanding: Wyatt gets the companion he craves, Linc gets his paycheck, and once the house arrest is over they go their separate ways. Simple — as long as they stay discreet. But with a reporter shadowing Wyatt’s every move, and their feelings deepening by the day, walking away may prove the hardest thing either of them has ever done.

Please read with care: this book contains scenes that may be distressing, including self-harm, a suicide attempt, past and present physical abuse, and implied past sexual violence. Do check the author’s content warnings before starting.

Perfect for readers who love an MM bodyguard romance, forced proximity, forbidden fling-to-more tension and a hard-won HEA.
