S.E.X. Review~ Valor on the Move by Keira Andrews

He’d give his life to protect the president’s son. But he never expected to risk his heart.
Growing up gay in the White House hasn’t been easy for Rafael Castillo. Codenamed “Valor” by the Secret Service, Rafa feels anything but brave as he hides in the closet and tries to stay below the radar in his last year of college. His father’s presidency is almost over, and he just needs to stick to his carefully crafted plan. Once his family’s out of the spotlight, he can be honest with his conservative parents about his sexuality and his dream of being a chef.
It’s definitely not part of Rafa’s plan to get a new Secret Service agent who’s a walking wet dream, but he’s made it this long keeping his desires to himself. Besides, it’s not like Shane Kendrick would even look at him twice if it wasn’t his job.
Shane’s worked his way up through the Secret Service ranks, and while protecting the president’s shy, boring son isn’t his dream White House assignment, it’s an easy enough task since no one pays Rafa much attention. He discovers there’s a vibrant young man beneath the timid public shell, and while he knows Rafa has a crush on him, he assures himself it’s harmless. Shane’s never had room for romance in his life, and he’d certainly never cross that line with a protectee. Keeping Rafa safe at any cost is Shane’s mission.
But as Rafa gets under his skin, will they both put their hearts on the line?
This gay romance from Keira Andrews is the first part of the Valor duology and features a May-December age difference, Jane Austen levels of pining, forbidden love against the odds, and of course a happy ending.

Valor on the Move by Keira Andrews was a wonderfully written story of younger-older romance. Who doesn’t want to fall in love with their bodyguard? And for Rafa, a First Kid, he did just that. 

The dynamics between Shane, a Secret Service Agent and Rafa, his protectee was well delivered. Ms. Andrews did a nice job of developing the story and following through to the end. If I have to say anything negative about the book was that the line was crossed when Shane developed a sexual relationship with his protectee. Additionally, the two hid the relationship even when things went belly up (the cover up bothered me).

Both Shane and Rafa were likable characters and I enjoyed their story. I look forward to the next book.
