Description

From NYT and USA Today bestselling author A.L. Jackson comes a single-dad, enemies-to-lovers stand-alone romance about a jaded club owner and his son’s teacher....

Eden Murphy came into my club looking to make some extra cash.

A girl like her didn't belong in a place like this.

She'd get ripped to shreds.

Most likely by me.

There's nothing but sweetness dripping from her sexy little body, and I'm the monster who's salivating to get a taste.

Trent Lawson is the last man I should want.

Dark.

Dangerous.

So wickedly gorgeous he makes my knees weak.

He's also an arrogant jerk who happens to be my new boss.

When I discover his adorable son is also in my kindergarten class, I know I have to keep my distance.

But neither of us can ignore the attraction that flames.

One glance, and our hearts race.

One touch, and we’re aching for what we can’t have.

One night, and we’re falling fast.

Dragging her into my sordid world is wrong.

It doesn’t matter.

Eden Murphy is mine.

Really good

This book is great and filled with angst. My only complaint is the number of times the author uses the phrase "dip my fingers". It was driving me nuts, like over a dozen times in the MMC's internal dialogue.

Did not finish - so many unnecessary meaningless words

I could not get into the audiobook. So many pointless meaningless sentences. They literally mean nothing. Any kind of feelings, steaminess or plot in this book was lost because of the writing, everything moves soooo slow. I even sped up the book. Narrators are great, but writing was awful. I have liked other book by this author, so don’t understand with this book was different.

Overall Good Story

I loved the story as it had plot twists I didn't see coming, but the book itself had too many words. So many descripting words, metaphors and similes. All the extra unnecessary words made it very difficult to keep focused on the actual story of the characters. It felt like overkill.

Too many words

I do like the stores AL Jackson tells, I love the characters, but I find it impossible to listed to, (it has nothing to do with the Narrators they were great). AL Jackson will use four sentence to describe something when one will do, it just feels like a word salad. If the writing was tighter I have no doubt I would Love everything she writes.

opposites attract

WOW! This was my first book by A L Jackson and her words are like poetry. The way she was able to paint an image of Trent and Eden's feelings and struggles was beautiful.

Connor and Desiree did a fantastic job of narrating.

I can't wait to listen to Jud and Logan's stories.

I LOVE THIS AUTHOR.. & IMO THIS IS HER BEST WORK

This supremely talented author has written an intense and riveting romance that weaves around emotional damage and conflicted despair as head wars with a hero's charred heart. Nobody writes tangible all-consuming chemistry like this author and the sparks between good girl Eden and bad-boy Trent are instant.. and there’s something wonderful and beautifully desperate as light meets dark which ignites an all-consuming fire. Trent escaped a dark MC world and he thinks his past sins have condemned his soul to Hell.. but his Kitten will see the sweet soul beneath his sinner’s tarnished veil.. and that will lead to absolution, love, redemption and an organic growth of a beautiful new family.

With his sins and darkness clearly etched over his skin, this handsome dark hero oozes danger.. and his new Bar Waitress is instantly drawn to him like a moth to a flame. Their seismic chemistry causes unwanted animal attraction.. but it’s the angsty fireworks between bruised souls that will lead to lines being crossed in a war of desire vs demons. However, as they slowly claim each other’s hearts, Trent’s feared demons become very real.. and dark forces and secrets in both their pasts will corrupt, taint, shock, shatter and threaten their present.. and their happy ever afters.

Worth a credit? A big bulging Y E S.. there’s delicious ups and downs in their sizzling conflicts. There’s a wealth of emotions in the addictive chapters that follow. And there’s a sweet little cherished boy who is Daddy’s only reason for living.. until a desperate Kitten walks into his Bar looking for a job. The excellent dual POV narration by Connor and Desiree fit the main and secondary characters perfectly, their talents brought the full list of feels to life and they made this a memorable audiobook.

I love this book to the highest mountain!!!

This is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time and it’s no surprise because A. L. Jackson is a truly gifted writer. I was sucked in immediately and felt like I became a part of this world. Eden and Trent had sizzling chemistry from the beginning and as their lives became more intwined, their love blossomed in the most beautiful way. The storyline was refreshing and enthralling…and honestly, I’m a sucker for a single dad romance! It was emotional and deep. The little boy…Gage…he brought so much life and happiness to the story. I couldn’t stop smiling when he was around. And Trent’s brothers…I’m already half in love with them…can’t wait for their stories! All the side characters were awesome. The narrators did an outstanding job…two of my faves! This is a MUST LISTEN!!!

too many words

The story was good but there were too many words. It seemed like if 3 words would do she added 12. You don't need an adjective or phrase for everything. it was hard to get through but and I skipped quite a bit but I did it.

i can't

this is so bad i can't finish it. i don't understand the reviews praising it so much, obviously there are a lot of people out there looking to bask in pathos. i listen to audiobooks on my commute and i almost couldnt walk properly i was rolling ny eyes so often.
every thought and interaction has to have 5 similes and 2 metaphors, everyone thinks their life is more dramatic and dark than anyone else could ever understand. its like its written by an angsty teen with a metaphor fetish. sometimes people just talk to one another without sinking into the depths of hell or whatever. relax.

Stunning everything!

Oh Kitten! There are so many feelings going through me right now. This book is a must read/listen! This is my kinda book, beautiful intense storyline, all-consuming angst, sexy AF steam, heart-melting swoon, great twists, stunning writing, fantastic narration and the funniest most adorable boy EVER!

Trent & Eden couldn’t be more different. He is a bad boy, rough and devilish handsome with danger all around and only living for one reason. She is a grief-stricken beautiful teacher full of pure goodness looking for a job at his club. Sparks fly and hearts beat faster when they give into their flames of desire. Trent & Eden and especially little Gage captured my heart on their journey of hope, love, grief, loss, burying those demons and finding happiness.

This story has so many layers and A.L. Jackson´s writing made me feel like I was transported into this story. I felt such a deep emotional connection, especially with Eden. I felt everything, word, thought and action which put me through an emotional rollercoaster. The narration can only be described as aural awesomeness as these perfectly written words are outstandingly performed by Desiree Ketchum and Connor Crais. All those different tones and voices, especially the emotions of these scenes were only enhanced by their AMAZING acting and heartfelt performances. Also, I LOVED how both, Desiree & Connor interpreted Gage, seriously my heart, this kid is freaking cute and although I adore both voice actor’s performances immensely, Desiree stole the show for me as her kid voice is just something else.

The hype and love for this book are absolutely warranted. Go grab it!!! Looking forward to Trent´s brother´s stories.

Mixed Feelings

Things I liked about this book.
-The cover! Those models (especially the guy) are gorgeous!
-The narrators of the audiobook. Their voices fit the characters so well.

Things that made me so irritated
-Instalust. From pg 1 the 2 characters were drawn to each other, but I had such a hard time understanding why. Where was the relationship building?
-so much inner dialogue....
-The dramatic writing style just wasn't for me.

I love all the individual tropes that this book contained, but put together it really fell short of my expectations. 🙁

Too wordy for me

Story line was good and the narrators did a great job. This writer is just way too flowery and descriptive with her words. I found myself skipping ahead to avoid the long repetitive descriptions.

Love trio of perfection: AL, Desiree and Connor

This is easily in my top 5 of 2021. I love the sweet story of Eden and Trent. I love to go into a story blind so will not give any details here. If you are a fan of Al, Desiree and Connor you will enjoy the roller coaster ride of emotions. Also Trent being a single dad is so cute. There are many layers to the story which is what I love about the journey of their friendship. There is just something so special about both Desiree and Connor as narrator's. I visualize everything and they both bring the stories alive from the fist page until the last. Hope to read about Judd and Logan in a future story.
