In Balthazar 'Ballz' Bornstein's professional opinion, every member of the metalcore band, Winter's Wrath, needs therapy. After years as an army psychologist, the security guard has the training, but working with soldiers was much different from managing men under the spotlight of the music world. Still, he's making progress. Except for Connor Phelan. Connor acts like a carefree jock, but Balthazar has glimpsed his inner pain and growing isolation from his bandmates. The young man is far too appealing and his lust for life, his playfulness, and his mischievous smile bring out the Dom in Balthazar. The security guard struggles to keep his job and his desires separate, but he's losing the fight. More so when competition shows up-Annette Paige, the wild, headstrong backup vocalist of another band. When a key member is injured, the two bands are forced to work together, but clashing egos, animosity, and passions jeopardize the entire European tour. The best way to keep the steady rhythm is to get the band members to behave professionally. It's not looking good, but Balthazar will do his best to keep the boys in line. Maybe a curfew will work. There's also been the suggestion of a leash, but the man he most wants to collar has already been caged by Annette. The Dom in him wonders if he could bring them both to heel.One word could bring them together. Or tear them apart. A word none of them can ever say… Mine
