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 twenty-two-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 is the first book in the Like Us series and can be read and enjoyed without reading any of Krista & Becca's other novels.

Not worth your time, for a number of reasons:1) The writing is just plain bad. On every other page, someone's eyes are "daggering" or "glassing", or someone's lips are upturning or downturning, or someone's voice is "daggered," or someone's shoulders are "bound." The word choice in the book is overall weird--what happened to tense, sharp, smiled, frowned, etc? It reads as overly flowery for the sake of being flowery, and is often confusing. Additionally, at times it seems that the authors sat with a thesaurus and slotted in words without really being sure what they meant. The end result is that many sentences simply do not make sense, and seem to include words that actually mean the opposite of what the author intended.There is also a ton of exposition and internal thought. The telling-not-showing is the majority of the book, and often interrupts the flow of dialogue to the point that you need to flip back a few pages to see what was last said by the time you finally reach the response. I also get the impression that Moffy and Farrow are supposed to be frequently engaging in very witty banter. They are not. They sling childish insults at the level of "I know you are but what am I" and "guess no one ever told you that you suck" at each other and its presented as the height of cleverness.2) The characters are ridiculous. Moffy is a billionaire 22-year old who runs charities (is he skimming off the top to have all that money? Its never explained) despite having no formal training/education in management. He apparently is amazing at his job, at being a sibling, at dying his own hair, at cutting hair, at caring for those around him, at sex, at literally everything he does or thinks about doing. He is a Mary Sue to the max, and Farrow isn't any better. He is a doctor, a trained fighter, wealthy, always right, a great driver, full of bravado and arrogance and apparently its all justified. Neither of them has any flaws, and there is no true character development at any point in the story. Their emotional depths consist of lusting at each other, sleeping with each other, and wanting to sleep with each other more.3) There is no plot. Moffy and Farrow want to sleep together, Moffy and Farrow do sleep together, Moffy and Farrow will continue sleeping together, now with a few more people knowing about it. That is it.4) The 'plot twist' is beyond ridiculous. SPOILER: Moffy and Farrow's relationship is forced to light when, out of nowhere, Moffy is accused of being in an incestuous relationship with his cousin Janie and all their parents, aunts, uncles, and bodyguards believe it. Moffy is presented as a self-sacrificing, honest to a fault type of character but the minute a tabloid throws an accusation against him the entirety of his family immediately assumes he is lying. The trust and affection previously displayed evaporates in an instant. Its clear every single set of parents in that room was convinced the incest was happening based on the evidence of a tabloid article (ie, once Moffy was seen outside in his underwear at night and no one thought to ask the bodyguards to corroborate the story that explained the incident). It destroyed the one redeeming quality of the book--the theme emphasizing the importance of family bonds. Clearly, for all the talk they don't actually mean anything when things get tough for this family.5) The suspension of disbelief required to buy in to the story is more than I could handle. The level of obsession with celebrity the entire world exhibited toward these families was unbelievable. The level of vitriol universally doled out toward the woman was repugnant, and was never tempered by any adoration--apparently, the entire world hates Jane and wants to rape her and not a single person thinks otherwise, as portrayed in the story. The fact that Moffy would repeatedly be racing away from paparazzi at over 90mph on Philadelphia-area highways is beyond ridiculous, both from a policing perspective and from a traffic perspective--anyone who has been to Philly knows the traffic patterns would prohibit anything of the sort. The helplessness of the family in the face of everything the world threw at them was unbelievable, especially considering the repeated emphasis on their wealth.6) Finally, the book weirdly and uncomfortably sexualizes young children. I get that the authors are attempting to show that the public behaves inappropriately toward young celebrities in most of the instances, but they also have Farrow losing his virginity at 13, a 12-year-old girl in a passionate relationship, and a 14-year-old apparently being fawned over by the media for his attractiveness. I find it truly impossible to believe that there would be rampant, widespread discussions of the sex lives and sex appeal of underage teenagers by the media with no pushback, outrage, or consequence.In conclusion, ridiculous story, boring characters, awful writing. There was a ton of potential but it went nowhere, and I would not recommend wasting your time on this one.
