Publisher's summary

Don't date your bodyguard.

It was the one rule he had to break.

Maximoff Hale is a force of nature. A ship unwilling to be steered. Headstrong, resilient, and wholly responsible - the 22-year-old alpha billionaire can handle his unconventional life. By noon, lunch can turn into a mob of screaming fans. By two, his face is all over the Internet. Born into one of the most famous families in the country, his celebrity status began at birth. He is certified American royalty.

When he's assigned a new 24/7 bodyguard, he comes face-to-face with the worst case scenario: being attached to the tattooed, MMA-trained Yale graduate who's known for "going rogue" in the security team - and who fills 1/3 of Maximoff's sexual fantasies.

Twenty-seven-year-old Farrow Keene has one job: protect Maximoff Hale. Flirting, dating, and hot sex falls far, far out of the boundary of his bodyguard duties and into "termination" territory. But when feelings surface, protecting the sexy-as-sin, stubborn celebrity becomes increasingly complicated. Together, boundaries blur, and being exposed could mean catastrophic consequences for both.

Damaged Like Us can be listened to and enjoyed without listening to any of Krista and Becca's other novels.

What a wonderful start to a series!

Damaged Like Us by Becca Ritchie and Krista Ritchie
Five Stars
I really love stories with strong leading characters. This is one of the best most entertaining 10 hours I’ve had in a long time. I love this premise of the ultra rich and privileged, but they are so down to earth and crazy. This book had me laughing out load in some parts. Maximoff and Farrow have some smoking hot chemistry, so if you love the mm genre this story is for you! This is the first time I have heard either narrator, but I’m definitely putting Alexander Cendese and J.F. Harding on my favorites list. I highly recommend this book and look forward to reading/listening to the rest of this series!

So in love..

I loved the Addicted and Calloway series. This was an awesome continuation. Moffy and Farrow are super hot and sexy together. I loved how the siblings were a part of the book and their interactions with each other and their cousins. Can't wait for the next book.

Under scrutiny 24 seven

This was a great book. It was such an eye-opener on how paparazzi evades the lives of famous people. And how much they can come between family members.

wonderful

As a fan of the Calloways from way back, I can't believe it took me so long to get here! Now that I have had a taste, I need to dive all the way in.

Look out Hales, Cobalts, and Meadows- there's no getting rid of me now!

Wolfscout and his shadow are an inspiring and highly entertaining duo. Their bond is the stuff that makes everyone a hopeless romantic. Enjoy the romance, the chemistry, and the unwavering support.

Damaged Like Us is an honor even if the title comes from a malicious place. Beauty changes depending on the viewer...


These narrators are new to me and that is a crying shame. While I tend to need time to adapt to new narrators, I was whisked away in the story immediately. Alexander and JF are a team both as Mafi and Farrow and as narrators. Their distinctive voices gave a well-rounded preformance and I have no doubt I will be trying to ship their future work as well.

absolutely love

I have completely fallen in love with this story and this series. I've listened to this book a dozen times. both narrators nail these characters! the female voices are a bit off, but it is very easy to tell who is speaking. one of my favorite authors and 2 of my favorite narrators!

Addicting

This series is addicting, well written, original and just perfect. Yes, this book centers on a romance between 2 men but it is also a heartfelt story of blood family & family of choice. By mistake I began this series with book 7, which was so fantastic that I went to book 1 immediately. Narrators were spectacular, don’t miss this series!
