Only Ever You
He was his first love. Now he’s his protector.
Nico Olivieri learned a long time ago not to need anyone.
As the only son of a powerful family, he's spent years perfecting the art of being exactly where he's expected to be and nowhere he actually wants to belong. Then someone tries to kill him, and suddenly disappearing from the family business is no longer optional.
His father's solution is send Nico into hiding with a bodyguard.
Unfortunately, the man waiting for him is David Harrington.
David was Nico's best friend. His first love. The boy who disappeared from his life ten years ago without an explanation.
Now he's back, older, harder, and determined to keep Nico alive.
A mountain cabin should make it easier to keep things professional. Instead, there's nowhere to hide from the memories they've spent a decade trying to bury. Between chess games, endless bickering, snowstorms, and the kind of tension neither man can ignore forever, Nico starts to wonder whether losing David was ever really his choice.
But someone wants Nico dead.
And the closer David gets to protecting him, the more dangerous it becomes to let himself love Nico again. Because this time, they don't just have to survive the people trying to tear them apart. They have to decide whether they're finally brave enough to choose each other.
Only Ever You is a steamy MM second-chance romance featuring childhood friends to lovers, forced proximity, a protective bodyguard, family secrets, danger, and a lot of spice.

About the author
A.J. Moretti
1 bookAJ Moretti divides her time between work, travelling, and writing stories she probably has no business being this emotionally attached to.
She has a weakness for complicated men, impossible situations, and happy endings that would be completely unrealistic in real life. Luckily, fiction has better rules.
When she’s not writing, she’s usually planning her next trip, reading something she absolutely doesn’t have time for, or thinking about her characters when she should be doing literally anything else.

Love story❤️
I enjoyed this book alot. David loved Nico. Nico loved David. After 10 years apart they still found that they only wanted to be with each other. Time didn't change that.
