I didn't know quite what to expect when going into this book because it's a little different than my most recent reads, but I loved it! An exciting political thriller-type romance with danger, suspense, sweet romance, and a kickass found family. I can't wait to see what this group has to overcome with in the next book!
•minor spoilers•
The main romantic relationship is between Theo, the First Son of the U.S., and his bodyguard/Secret Service agent, Connor. Theo struggles with some major anxiety, and only moved into the White House to help with his much younger siblings, giving up a lot of his independence. Connor is a sweet southern gentleman who's immediately infatuated with Theo and they form a very sweet, supportive, loving romance. I feel like they were pretty obvious and not super secretive but I guess no one paid them any attention because the secretive part of this somewhat forbidden relationship wasn't a huge factor.
Now, while they are the main guys, we got a lot of other characters POVs, mostly the characters that make up the Rainbow Brigade found family. Besides Theo's President mom, I loved them. I wasn't sure about all the switching POVs at first, as it took some of the focus of the romance, but this was a very plot driven book and the different characters each brought something unique to the story.
I wish there was more romance, because every time I I read about Connor and Theo I could feel their chemistry and connection on the page and just wanted more! I did love the plot though, it wasn't really predictable and it was fun to get into. I would say the writing is a little more complex than my normal read so it took a little longer to get through, but I liked the style and character development. All the characters had very distinctive voices and everything tied up really nicely.
I'm excited to see where the next book goes with everything and get a little more insight on the other characters. Except Theo's mom, I'm not sure anything could bring her back onto my good side.
