   Summary

   There it was in big bold letters, painted on his bathroom mirror with deep red lipstick. Someone had broken into his home just to write a threatening message, and for what? Just to scare him?

    

   After having his house broken into just days after his naked pictures are splashed on the front page of every trash magazine in the country, Magnus is done. The last thing he wants is to have an FBI agent move into his flat and follow him around like a bodyguard. Even when said FBI agent turns out to be both unfairly gorgeous and kind.

   As things unravel will they learn to open up and trust each other or will the secret horrors in their pasts keep them apart? And what happens when the threat turns out to be more than just words?
