Tempting Tristan: Tristan Brewer

Harborside Nights

De: Melissa Foster

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Jacob Morgan

Tempting Tristan is a stand-alone M/M romance featuring two sexy, lovable alpha heroes.

Tristan and Alex

Fresh off the heels of yet another bad relationship, Tristan Brewer is taking a break from men to try to figure out where he keeps going wrong. He knows his biggest fault - he leads with his heart, not his head - and that’s never going to change. But after several introspective weeks, he’s beginning to get a handle on things. That is until badass heartthrob Alex Wells walks into his bar...

Alex has spent eight years in the army, months in a hospital bed, and far too long hiding his sexual identity. He’s guilt-ridden, damaged, pissed off, and up for a Silver Star for the incident that nearly cost him his life - and kept him from his grandmother’s funeral. But all he wants to do is live the life he’s always dreamed of and forget his stint with the institution that allows but doesn’t necessarily accept.

The chemistry between Tristan and Alex ignites from the moment they meet, and the more time they spend together, the hotter the flames burn. But the closer they become, the more Alex's walls go up, and when the two walk onto a military base, Tristan finds out Alex’s physical scars aren’t the ones that run the deepest.

Harborside Nights is a sexy, hot, and evocatively real series of stand-alone romances that follows a group of friends who have known one another for years as "summer" friends and now come together after college to build their lives. They're tough, edgy, and accepting - most of the time. This series is written in the same loving, raw, and emotional voice readers have come to love by New York Times and USA Today best-selling, award-winning author Melissa Foster, with LGBT themes.

Alpha and Tango 💙🖤💙🖤

This book is one of my favorite relisten. It is low on angst, but the story runs a strong emotional under current. It’s about two men meant to be together, but to get to their HEA, they had to fight for it together. It’s all about self acceptance and healing and entrusting their hearts to each other.

The pace of the story is good, the conflict resolution is done well. The supporting cast are awesome, with brief backgrounds for the couples are provided so you won’t feel like you missed out on any vital information.

Teddy Hamilton is one of the best narrators out there and he’s done excellent work on this one. Jacob Morgan sounded a bit flat, but he still did great.
Their combo is always an insta-buy for me.

Hott!

I loved this story and all the characters in this series. The love shared between Tristan and Alex is so pure and all consuming. It made me yearn for something so real. The inmate scenes between them were down right intoxicating. The narrator voice matched perfectly!

2 Hot Men with Difficult Pasts = Great Listen

Author introduces just the right amount of character development and history detail to feel attached early in the romance. Good flow and additional supporting cast. Lots of hot M/M scenes.

Hamilton and Morgan are favorite narrators, they don't disappoint. The only reason I did not give 5-stars for performance is due to the audible inserts that do not match the existing tone. Not sure, what was driving the new inserts; new additions? Luckily, with these two performers, it can be overlooked.

The Sweetest Read!

I loved escaping into silky smooth voices telling sweet words in my ear.

I loved the beautiful dynamic and how Tristen knows just what buttons to push, to make Alex come out of his comfort zone.

An insta-love read that will have you smiling all the way through.

A no anx read that was just what the Dr. ordered... Thank you!!!

Hello handsome!

Alex and Tristan don't start as #goals but there is no way you can end this book without feeling they are. Tristan is the kind of guy everyone one loves. Sweet, protective, and an open book- he makes the best kind of friend and boyfriend. However, some guys don't realize the gem he is and throw him away. If he would let me, I would dust him off and be his new BFF(seems I'm too late though).

Alex,on the other hand, is closed off, nursing some spectacular wounds, and trying to adjust to civilian life. Seeing the gorgeous bartender was no coincidence yet he had no idea it would be life changing!

Tempting Tristan is all kinds of wonderful. A little angst, a little doubt, a lot of baggage, and a connection worth it all! Temptation may be a sin but keeping these two apart would be worse!

good

the story was really cute and lovely but I wish the men that were in the story were actually real people.

What to say about Alex and Tristan?

This book will bury itself deep inside you and just take over. These two characters, both who are dealing with issues and scars of their own, come together in a way that only Melissa Foster can write. They are so real and relatable, you'd think these were guys you hung out with, and you can't help but fall for them instantly.

Alex is dealing with PTSD, war wounds; Tristian is healing after a seriously bad relationship; and at the same time, they are both coming to terms with the death of Alex's Grandmother (who was in both their lives in different ways). The emotions this book evokes are strong - and you feel everything right along with these two characters.

One of my top listens of not only 2019, but ever!!

This book was recommended in the Aural Fixation FB group and all I can say is THANK YOU!! Melissa Foster is a new to me author, but I was hooked as soon as I saw it was a MM story narrated by two of my absolute favorite narrators,Teddy Hamilton and Jacob Morgan. I was not disappointed. Melissa Foster weaves a beautifully written story of two men, Tristan and Alex, who are both fighting their own demons. Tristan is coming off of a bad breakup and has sworn off men all together until Alex walks into the bar and changes his life forever. Alex is an Army veteran, wounded in combat who has come back to Harborside after his beloved grandmothers death. Tempting Tristan is the love story of two imperfect men working to overcome their fears and find love. This story is emotional and sad at times, but also filled with so much love, honesty and truth. Their connection is raw and real and filled with so much love and passion. One of my top books of all time.

Tempting Tristan was a 4 star read that was sweet, hot with no angsts or drama.

I really enjoyed this book. I gave the performance a 3 star rating simply because the narrators were very monotone. They both had very nice voices, but you could hear that they were reading. Their voices did not show emotion and that really sucks for the author because there were a lot of feelings in this book. So I believe I would have enjoyed this book more if I would have read it instead of listened. But the story was great!

Worth a credit

This book was everything love should be. ♥️
It is definitely worth the credit. You won’t regret it.
