Bodyman

The first time I got on my knees for President Ashley, it was the night of his inauguration… 

And I was only doing my job… helping him remove his shoes.

I'm Lieutenant Commander Kenan Harper, the president's trusted valet. His loyal aide. His bodyman…

And the fool who's been in love with Garner Ashley since long before I took this job. 

If I had my way, I'd be so much more than his employee, but to say that would be impossible would be the understatement of the century. Garner might be the first openly gay president, but the world's not ready for a gay First Gentleman, and Garner's never looked at me with anything but professional courtesy…

Until suddenly, he does.

The first touch between us sparks years of longing into a blaze so bright and wild, neither of us can deny our feelings any longer. But when a relationship is this forbidden, this career-ending, this… world-changing… both of us will have choices to make. 

Will I remain in the shadows as the president's bodyman… or stand out and proud by Garner's side as the one he loves?
