Skin Deep

I-Team Series, Book 5.5

By: Pamela Clare

Narrated by: Kaleo Griffith

Megan Hunter has worked hard to get back on her feet, leaving the nightmare of her teenage years behind. The last thing she wants or needs in her life is a man. But when she is attacked by someone from her past, a scarred stranger intervenes, saving her life and that of her little girl. Looks can be deceiving, for despite the man's rough appearance, she feels safe with him. And for the first time in her life, she knows the stirrings of desire.

Nathaniel West paid a high price serving with the Marines in Afghanistan. He returned to his family's ranch in the Colorado mountains to heal - and be alone. Disfigured as he is, he has put all thoughts of sex and romance aside. But something about Megan brings him back to life, heats his blood, makes him feel like a man again. As danger pursues her, and the truth about her past is revealed, he vows to protect her - and to heal her wounded spirit. But confronting the past is never easy - especially when it's carrying a gun. Megan will have to learn to trust Nate to survive and to claim a passion that is much more than...skin deep.

Loved it!

Loved the book. Love the series.

Great plot - not just a romance. Drama. Suspense. Danger.

Sexy times are few, but hot.

The narrator is amazingly talented.

Loved it.

Nate. I love Nate. what a wonderful addition to the series. And I loved the beer run short story at the end. Definitely another book for my keeper shelf.

Exciting listen!

Although this isn’t a long novel, all the story elements are here that make it a satisfying, top-notch read. The characters and their lives are fully fleshed out.
The narrator is one of the best. He portrays each character faithfully, even the women, and he does it without falsetto. It’s an attractive, male voice that adds to the high quality of the story.
I enjoyed this book and recommend it freely.

A BEAUTIFULLY DETAILED PERFECT ROMANCE

Everyone loves a hero and that's exactly what Nate is but unfortunately he's been mentally and physically scarred in Afghanistan, Megan has mental scars too so when they meet sparks fly and it's followed by a tender, sweet, emotional, powerful romance.

Nate gives Megan the time, patience and support needed for her to overcome her past and finally move on and she shows him tenderness and compassion as she sees past his scarred body - so really they heal each other (with the help of a snow storm and Jack). There's also danger, tension, action suspense and drama from Megan's drugged up ex and the villains he owes money to and despite having so many Alpha men around willing and ready to protect her she still becomes a victim of violence once again.

Some loveable supporting characters and get your tissues ready for a tearjerker of an epilogue.

There's an additional bonus short story (about 30 mins) about some of the I Team making a beer run in the middle of having a family BBQ which is hilarious with plenty of action too that's a great little addition to an already perfect listen.

Worth a credit? Oh Yes it's a must have.

Sweet quick listen

A sweet little story. I liked how it was short, sweet and to the point!

Great Short!

This is a great addition to the I-team series as a short novella. I adored Hunter in book 3, so choosing Megan as a side story was spot on. You can't help but fall in love with Nate, just like all the other men in this series. There's an additional quick story beyond the epilogue that's good too...more Darcangelo and Hunter...I couldn't ask for more!

So sweet with humorous trailer

Laughs so hard during the testosterone beer run!!!! This series is great to unwind with.

LOVE THIS

Loved every single thing about this book. 10 stars! I hope all the books in this series are added to audible.

This series is so addictive.............

Pamela Clare is one of my favorite authors and this series is incredible!!! It is probably best that all of the books in this series didn't release at the same time, because I would have lost my job and entire life put on hold!!

Also, Kaleo Griffith makes this series as well; yum yum yum!!! Thank you!!!!

Another Great Story - This is an Addictive Series!

Would you listen to Skin Deep again? Why?

Yes, and have. Would have liked the story to be longer, more detailed like others. Glad author wrote about people that weren't directly members of I Team but yet related. Narrator does a wonderful job with voices and conveying emotion.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Skin Deep?

There are many memorable moments, one that comes to mind is Emily's owie remark and Nates's reaction. Nates' sensitivity and understanding of Megan past and Megans of Nate's trauma.

Really like that characters from previous books reappear in later books/stories.

Seemed odd to think of Zack in a suit.

Have you listened to any of Kaleo Griffith’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to all of the I team series, Kaleo Griffiths performance is always outstanding.

Any additional comments?

I hope there are many more books in the series. I would like to read a story that highlights Holly, Juaquine, Tom (do only 20-30 year olds fall in love?) others...

Would also like to see/read that new members join the team. I would even like to read more stories about "the guys" and even the lady investigators working together.
