It’s the heart and soul that picks who we love and sometimes we have absolutely no control over it.īy the time I reached the end of the book, I was praying there would be a book 2 and I hear we may see more of Ethan and Jack this year. I am a huge fan of military type books with strong men saving the world and falling in love, and I really don’t care who they fall in love with. Tal also gives an amazing political-military story that forced me to keep turning every page causing me to finish the novel in one day. You can feel all the emotions from each character and how they each feel from their different perspectives. Tal’s writing in relation to the build up of these two men falling in love is outstanding. He falls in love with straight, once married man and President of the United States, Jack Spiers.

A couple months later and Ethan does something he never thought he would ever do. The President needs a friend and Ethan can’t help but break every Secret Service rule there is to be a friend to Jack. Ethan is the job and he loves the job but everything changes one night at the White House. He’s never been one to look for love or even think he needs love in his life. Ethan is a bit of a loner, no family, no boyfriend, but he does have a few close Secret Service friends. Secret Service Agent Ethan Reichenbach spent 10 years in Army Special Forces and now is starting his 12th year with the Secret Service as lead security detail for POTUS. On top of all that, he is major peace talks with the other world leaders. He has staff, cabinet members, but not anyone to bounce things off of or hang out with and it’s causing him some issues. Jack is a people person and he finds out pretty quickly that his job doesn’t really leave him time to have friends or get close to the people. Now he’s the President of the United States and he’s ready to start his first year in office. That’s when Jack made the decision to kick start his political career in hopes of changing the world and making it a better place.

So here goes:įifteen years ago Jack Spiers lost his wife, Army Captain Leslie Spiers in Iraq. It’s like The American President meets White House Down, but move over Police Officer John Cale played by Channing Tatum because Secret Service Lead Special Agent Ethan Reichenbach is in the house! This is a male love story and is intended for readers 18 years and older.Īs many of you already know, I never include spoilers in my reviews and I’m going to do my best to relay to you how much I absolutely loved this story without giving too much away. Enemies of the State is an outstanding political, military, romantic, suspense novel by Tal Bauer.
