Red Haze

Caffeine Daydreams, Book 3

By: Lark Taylor

Narrated by: Joel Leslie, Dan Calley

Everyone knows it's a bad idea to crush on a straight guy. But when that man is also your bodyguard? It's just asking for trouble.

Arlo

Our rise to stardom might've helped me escape from the chaos that was my childhood, but that didn't mean it was easy for me. Now, with fame and an almost unlimited bank account, you'd think I'd be happy. But I'm not. There's no escaping the depression that dogs me or my past that refuses to leave me alone, no matter what I try. There's no one to stop the self-destructive spiral I'm caught in.

No one, that is, until Jack. As soon as the stoic man who looks like he could crush me under his thumb is assigned to me, I know I'm in trouble. Not only is he every one of my wet dreams brought to life, but he's straight. Oh, and tasked with keeping me out of mischief.

What I wasn't expecting was the friendship that followed. The way we would come to depend on one another. When it's all ripped away, can I find a way to exist without Jack at my side? Or am I destined to love someone I can never have?

Jack

After leaving the SAS, going into personal security seemed like the next logical step. Having been briefed on my client, the drummer for the rock band Caffeine Daydreams, I believed I'd be guarding some spoiled kid with more money than sense. But as I get to know Arlo, I realize nothing could be further from the truth.

With the line between professional and personal blurring, Arlo quickly becomes the most important person in my life. When I have to decide between keeping him in my life or protecting him, I choose the latter. I will always protect Arlo.

What I didn't know was that the price I'd pay would cut me far deeper than I'd thought possible. Can I persuade Arlo to give me another chance? Or will I have to resign myself to just seeing him on my screen?

Red Haze is a demi-awakening, bodyguard/rockstar MM romance. It's the final book in the Caffeine Daydreams series. Each book follows a different couple as they find their HEA. Although best enjoyed in order, these books can stand alone.

plot line

Beautiful romance, strong story line that caught me off guard! Most series are pretty much the same but so far, each is uniquely different!

I liked it

Wow.. what a waste of life. Sad how soo many years lost honestly for no reason. The story itself was enjoyable.

My favorite in the series

Jack and Arlo's love is absolutely everything. The Ace representation makes my heart feel good.

Fun Series.

Overall a fun series, but wished it had a 4th book about Tristan and Cory. I’d like to know Tristan’s story.

Love Joel Leslie’s performance. So so on the other two performances. Narrators can make or break us readers coming back to an author’s works. Also, should be dual narration with no crossover to the other characters.
