It’s a race against time to get Raphie home to the small European state of Campanula so he can claim the throne from his late father and call off the hit. Griff knows he has to remain professional, but he’s increasingly drawn to the beautiful Raphie and his mesmerising long hair. There are only so many beds they can share before the pull between them becomes impossible to ignore.
But they’re living in a fantasy. Raphie is going to be a king, and Griff is almost twice his age and going nowhere. Griff knows they have no future together, no matter what Raphie insists. However, Griff also knows he’ll do anything to protect Raphie from harm, and that includes not breaking his heart. Can he really do his duty and walk away, or will true love conquer all?
Hair Out of Place is a steamy, standalone MM romance novel featuring a fierce feline BFF, a lot of mouthwatering food, even more mouthwatering snuggles, a royal ball to remember, and a guaranteed HEA with absolutely no cliffhanger.
Hair Out of Place is an amazing bodyguard romance. With a political aspect thrown in, Helen Juliet had me riveted throughout this read. Damn, the author starts this one off with a bang. Literally. I was instantly hooked and couldn't get enough of this story.
Raphie and Griff's tale is action packed and danger filled. There's suspense, intrigue, and plenty of humor. And a cat named Sparrow.
It's a forbidden romance as Griff falls for the one he's protecting. Raphie's personality comes to life immediately; fun, bouncy, and refreshing. Adding to the fun, Griff has no clue what this job involves, finding out along with the reader.
Everything about this tale is fresh and quick witted. The writing is fantastic, with Raphie and Griff's journey fully coming to life; danger, action, attraction, and want. There's plenty of sexual tension between the two, and some hot sex once they act on their feelings. Their story includes an age gap with is fabulous, and plenty of political intrigue.
Raphie is a unique character from the start. He's in his 20s but has never left his apartment. Instead of being awkward and withdrawn, he's social and happy go lucky. As a young man who has never left his apartment, this is nothing one would expect, including Griff. I absolutely love the way Raphie's new found experiences are told, with everything from trains to ordering food being an adventure.
Further adding to the fun is the fact that Raphie is non-binary, with his hair meaning the world to him. I had tears in my eyes for the way Griff supports him.
Hair Out of Place is a fabulous mix of suspense, romance, and love. Helen Juliet thrills and delights throughout this entire combo of fairy tale and insta love. Everything about this book works for me and I can't recommend it enough.
