The story starts with one of the main characters being prepped about a bodyguard position.  This offer came shortly after he heard that a former girlfriend had died.I liked that the author gave us a bit of background about the potential bodyguard, including a bit about his stormy past.That stormy past included information about the recently deceased ex- girlfriend and gave us the foundation of our soon to be bodyguard’s feelings about the wealthy and also information regarding his past.James (the bodyguard ) is retained to protect the life of an accomplished female painter.  The position is only expected to last a month and how complicated could it be just keeping an eye on a 23 year old female painter?Sure he heard she was a bit eccentric but she was also known to be a recluse so this should be an easy enough gig.  An orphan after her father’s recent death, Aden, was surrounded by servants in the only home she had ever known, which was a large mansion.It becomes evident that one person especially wants to cause problems on a personal and business level for Aden.This story is rich with details and characters that are all well developed.  As Aden has a wait staff, there’s an assortment of characters in the story.There’s a twist midway in this story- one that caused me to go back and reread – as I was certain it couldn’t be.  I’m not saying a single word -  but- you won’t see it coming believe me.This book isn’t a very long read  but the author did an excellent job in my opinion packing in a lot of details and taking you from a good average read to a What?????? with the twist added to the story.  This twist is what caused me to rate this book as excellent.  There’s nothing better than an author who leads you down a path and when you think you know what comes next totally, totally blindsides you with something there is no way you would be expecting.Definitely liked this book!
