Publisher's Summary

He's my best friend’s older brother, off limits and incredibly tempting.

I shouldn't peek into Brendon’s sketchbook, even if the tattoo artist is as brooding and stoic as the day is long.

I can't help myself. I peel it open, run my fingers along the paper, soak up every ounce of him. His drawings are as beautiful and bold as his dark eyes and his cocky smile. Only, there, on the third page - that’s no tattoo mockup.

That's me. Naked. Ready. Waiting in his bed. There's no denying it - those are my blue glasses, my green eyes, my flushed cheeks. Brendon wants me. The smoking hot, 10,000 miles out of my league bad boy wants me - a good girl v*rgin with thick glasses and no game. It's perfect. Only it's not. He's my best friend's older brother. He's off limits. But damn is he tempting. 

A complete stand-alone

I liked it.

I’m a fan of best friend sibling romances. The 8 years age difference did not bother me. Brandon was responsible guy. He kept referring to Kay as he was supposed to be her guardian. What 18 year old high school graduate needs a guardian? Kay was very immature and that I believe is what put me off on the romance. Her and the best friend were obsessed with Disney movies. I skipped through a lot of the “best friend” talks. Em was annoying. I do not understand why Kay just didn’t say I don’t wanna to talk about my “sex” life with you right now. When I want to talk I’ll come to you but for now drop it. Don’t lie. Which also shows a bit of immaturity.
Some of the book repeat phrases and words KILLED me. “closer- closer- closer.” Over and over. “Yes we get it fingers are almost to that spot. Yes his tongue his almost to that spot. I think liked the story. I was the female was a tad more mature. I didn’t have to hear about an adult loving Disney movies while reading an adult book.
I think the narrators did a good job. I would listen to them again.

Falling for the tattoo artist....

Kaylee is about to start college when her parents inform her that they’re moving to the east coast to be with her grandmother. They don’t go into detail about that but they have made arrangements for her to stay with her bff and her brother.
Brendan has a thing for Kaylee but he is mindful of the 8 yr age difference. Having Kaylee living with him and his sister will make it all that more difficult. Maybe buying the tattoo parlor, where he works will be the perfect distraction. That seems to be working until Kaylee reads his journal and sees erotic drawings of Brendan & herself. The pair embark on a secret affair...but will it last when it cones to light? Besides, Kaylee has a huge secret that keeps her from being all-in! Will there be an HEA for Kaylee and Brendan? Beautiful story, although some parts did drag a bit...still worth the read-listen.

It's a loving story but also heartbreaking too

I could not stop listening it's story lines like this that draw me in and keeps me hooked it has its ups and downs and shows that even the sweet always smiling girl can feel broken inside just like I do i can really relate to her and her dark thoughts and that is what i loved most she found her other broken half and to me it shows me hope

Fantastic!

An amazing story of a broken woman told with emotion. Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross were the perfect narrators. They brought out each word with passion.

Wow

If you could sum up Tempting in three words, what would they be?

Wasn't sure about this book at first but I was surprised. What an amazing book couldn't stop listening.

DNF

I got this book because of a recommendation, but couldn’t push through to finish it. It lacked story line and simply consisted of lots of sex scenes. I need more content that.

Excellent

I loved this book. This is a definite must have book. The story brought light to a medical condition many people hide or sweep under the rug. We all feel broken at times. And yet, Brendan showed Kaleigh in words and actions that she wasn’t broken and she wasn’t alone. He showered her with support and love.

sooo mind grabbing

this book hit on a hard subject that i struggle with. one of the best books I've read in a while. when ur broken it's hard to love yourself and i empitize with Kaylee on many thing. but I've learned that we all have another half that will love us the way we are meant to be loved i really recommend this book. if i could give it more stars i would.

SPICE SCENES ARE 5/5, but story is choppy at 1st

So I loved most of this story after about the 60 percent mark. it was kind of choppy at first, but I don't regret buying this one and the spice scenes are freaking amazing and the MMC was fantastic! actually, the FMC was better at the end than the start of this, so the character developement was pretty great too. also, LOVED the duet natration.
