Story
Ever hear the story about the bodyguard who falls for the rock star? Yeah, it never ends well. Each day I remind myself that it's my job to protect Stone. And nowhere in the job description does it say I should lust after the charismatic, charming man. Especially since we're opposites. But every night I spend with him the dangerous, off-limits attraction grows more intense. Until one night in a limo when we combust. One time only will have to be enough. One scorching, forbidden night. Because the mistakes from the past are chasing me. And if I give in again, I'll lose everything.

Story
At first, the request seemed simple - sign a new athlete to the agency. Then I found out the new athlete was none other than the most wanted man in hockey today: Hunter Maddox. Gifted. Sexy. At the top of his game. And the only man who has ever broken my heart. If signing him will help save our family business, I’ll swallow my pride and do what’s asked. But when it becomes clear his uncharacteristic antics off the ice are a hint of something deeper, keeping things strictly professional between us becomes more than complicated. But I know better than to cross that line.

I didn't mean to star in a sex tape, okay? It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds. It just happened. Now, my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston's nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan. The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family's oil company. Little does she know, that's not the only pipe I'll be laying....

Story
Lonnie Derringer is a filthy-mouthed, dirty-talking, long-distance fling. (That's been going on for two years.) I know, I know. That's not a fling. This might be getting serious. I look forward to our quickie lunch dates and the way he whispers in my ear every night from 2,000 miles away. He's the best boyfriend I never had. Until I find out his name isn't Lonnie, it's Alonzo. Until I find out he's not some boring accountant with a dead-end job, he's a six-foot-four, yoked-out, tatted-up fisherman who never wears a shirt!

At one point during the party, Alessandra said, “There’s nothing like a girl’s first love.” I knew she was talking about the first smash hit by my band, 22 Goats. Alessandra said it was the first song she’d heard by us and it “hit her like a ton of bricks”. Ironic, seeing as how I was having the same reaction from being in her presence.

Story
I first met Tristan Miles at a meeting where he was trying to take over my late husband’s company. He was powerful, arrogant, and infuriatingly gorgeous, and I hated him with every cell in my body. In the shock of the century, he called me three days later and asked me on a date. I would rather die than date a man like him - though I do have to admit it was good for the ego. Turning him down was the highlight of my year.

We’re talking boom box, sing her name in the rain, let the whole damn neighborhood know I'm good and ready this time around. After all, if you're going to grand gesture the ever-loving hell out of a second chance, you need to pull out all the stops. There’s only one little problem. My college girlfriend isn't the one who shows up when I play my "I'll do anything to win you back" tune. The woman who flings open the second-floor window tells me my ex doesn’t live here anymore.

The beginning of my sophomore year in college was off to a rough start. On the first day of orientation, I had an altercation with an infuriating British dude in a campus bathroom. (The ladies’ room was out of order. So, I used the men’s room. Don’t judge.) I got home later that night and realized that the foreign student we were expecting to rent a room in my parents’ house was allergic to our cat. So, the spare room went to someone else: Caleb - the British guy from the men’s room. And so it began...my love-hate story with Caleb Yates. Or was it hate-love in that order?

Reed freaking Rivers. I wouldn’t trust a word out of the arrogant music mogul’s mouth if his gold-plated tongue were notarized. The man with the Midas touch would say anything to get me into his bed, and I know it. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want him to succeed. Indeed, the moment I laid eyes on Reed while he was speaking at an on-campus event I’d crashed, my body physically ached to feel his golden fingers - and tongue - all over me.

The First Taste Melts Your Ears
The First Taste is a brothers best friend romance told in dual pov enraptured in forbidden fruit. A angsty lovestory between a tattoo artist and a book warm. The characters are well fleshed out and given depth to their characteristics. The writing style is balanced. This author tackles topics that are not easy to discuss and handles them with care. Its written in a way that could be someone's real life. A entertaining journey to a lovestory. Narators Kai Kennicott, Wen Ross duet naration performance hit the chemistry out of the park. These two are a perfect pair. Everything is insync and flows smoothly and consistently. Kai's sweet inflection fits Daisy's personality perfectly. Wen Ross exhuberates confidence and experience with his inflection of Holden. A entertaining experience.

So much more than a friends to lovers romance
I'm a devoted Crystal reader and follower and this book was another reminder as to why. Crystal digs deep into her characters, they aren't just surface level pretty and that's where they stay. Nope she makes them real, she gives them depth, struggles, pain and even loss. I really felt like she shined with Daisy and Holden. Anybody who knows me at all knows I am at an age where stories with a V aren't my thing BUT I knew what I was getting into here and I enjoyed this book because of how well it was written. Crystal addresses heavy topics and does it with grace and tact, she finds that balance between heavy and light and really nails it. I can see that things have the potential to get heavier with Oliver and Luna's future story (and dare I hope something is coming for Oliver & Daisy's dad) and I'm excited to see how Crystal addresses those topics while also giving us that sweet and satisfying romance we've come to expect from her.

Fun friends to lovers
Daisy has been in love with her brother's best friend, Holden, for quite some time. Holden has always seen Daisy as a little sister. That is until her 18th birthday when she decides she wants more than a friendship. Daisy and Holden are a cute couple and because they had an open and established friendship, it was cute and fun to watch their relationship become so much more. This was the first time I've heard Kai and Wen narrate and will definitely not be the last. I absolutely loved the duet narration and with these two it made for some pretty steamy interactions.

Brothers best friend romance with a twist
I enjoyed this story. I liked that it was done in dual narration and love the combination of Wen and Kai. Holden is the typical player that hides his attraction to Daisy because she is his best friend’s little sister. Daisy is not hiding anything about her attraction to Holden. A birthday trip is what bring everything to the forefront. I would have liked to have a little less introspection from the character (as others have said as well) but overall, I enjoyed the story and would recommend this book!

A Cute Story!
I give these narrators 5+++++*. I love listening to these two tell a story. I give the storyline: 3.5* This was a cute and steamy Brother's Best Friend romance. Daisy has had a crush on Holden for years. Going to celebrate her 18th birthday she invites him, hoping to get the courage to ask him to take her virginity before she sets off to college. Holden is a notorious playboy and just started to see Daisy as a women and tries fighting his attraction to her because her brother said she was off limits. I liked it, but a majority of this story was all inner monologues of what they wanted but both were afraid to say. Daisy is this innocent heroine so her being afraid to voice what she wants from Holden this guy she knows is a playboy is understandable, but I feel that for Holden he should of stepped up. I will check out the other books and can't wait for Daisy's brother and best friend 's story.
