S<\/strong>ynopsis<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Twenty-seven-year-old Farrow Keene lives by his actions, and his actions say he\u2019s the best at whatever he does. As a 24\/7 bodyguard and the new boyfriend to Maximoff Hale, protecting the headstrong, alpha billionaire has never been more complicated. And one rule can\u2019t be bent:<\/p>\n

Keep your relationship secret from the public.<\/i><\/p>\n

Farrow is confident he\u2019s the best man for the job. But a twist in Maximoff\u2019s fast-paced life sticks them with the rest of Security Force Omega and their clients.<\/p>\n

On the road.
\nIn a sleeper tour bus.
\nFor four rocky months.<\/p>\n

Sexual frustrations, check. Road trip drama, check. Awkward bonding, check.<\/p>\n

But Farrow couldn\u2019t have accounted for a high-risk threat (identity: unknown) that targets Maximoff before the ignition even turns. And it hits Farrow \u2014 someone has it out for the guy he loves.<\/p>\n

Every day, Maximoff & Farrow’s feelings grow stronger, and together, they’ll either sink or swim.<\/p>\n

The Like Us series is a true series, one continuous timeline, that follows a family of wealthy celebrities and the people that protect them. You must read Damaged Like Us, Book 1, before reading Lovers Like Us.<\/b><\/p>\n

Excerpt<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Proactively waiting<\/em> isn\u2019t my thing. I can admit that. So when Farrow unwraps a piece of gum and tugs open the fridge, I ask him, \u201cNeed help?\u201d<\/p>\n

He chews his gum slowly and glances at me in a way that reminds me he\u2019s twenty-seven. I\u2019m twenty-two, and he\u2019s more than capable to do shit himself.<\/p>\n

Farrow starts to smile. \u201cIt\u2019s cute that you think I need help getting eggs.\u201d He grabs a carton and kicks the fridge closed.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou could\u2019ve dropped the fucking eggs.\u201d I\u2019m fighting a stupid battle. And I grimace-smile which makes me want to poke my own eyes out.<\/p>\n

Farrow pops his gum. \u201cYou mean you<\/em> would\u2019ve dropped the eggs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDid I? Pretty sure I meant you could\u2019ve.\u201d<\/p>\n

Farrow sets the carton by the sink. \u201cI have steadier hands than you.\u201d He leans close and whispers huskily, \u201cYou\u2019re not beating me at this.\u201d<\/p>\n

I shake my head on instinct. When it comes to Farrow, boyfriend or not, I don\u2019t want to concede that fast. \u201cIt\u2019s not proven yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

He rolls his eyes into a smile. \u201cHold out your hand.\u201d<\/p>\n

I extend my hand, palm-down. Wondering how he can discern any shake just by sight.<\/p>\n

Farrow rotates my wrist. \u201cLike this.\u201d And then he smashes an egg right in my palm.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t smile at him. Don\u2019t smile at him.<\/em> \u201cThanks for that,\u201d I say sarcastically, hand dripping in broken eggshell and yolk.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnytime.\u201d He laughs, and I act quickly and wipe the runny egg onto his black V-neck, feeling the ridges of his six-pack beneath.<\/p>\n

Farrow props his elbows on the sink and actually lets me use his shirt as a towel, even while he\u2019s wearing the thing. Christ<\/em>.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s a Grade A sexy asshole.<\/p>\n
