Tattoos and Temptation, Book 6

By: Mia Monroe

Narrated by: Kale Williams

Length: 6 hrs and 1 min

Publisher's summary

He gave me freedom through restraint.

He captivated me the first time I saw him. I was drawn to him, curious about the mysterious, soft spoken older man. I convinced myself there was no way someone so worldly would be interested in a shy, inexperienced guy like me. I’m careful what I reveal, choosing instead to live with what if.

But with each interaction, I felt things I never had before. Patiently, he gave me the space to peel back my armor, allowing him to twist me apart in ways I never imagined. Now I crave the security of his ropes.

He opened up the way I see the world and myself in it. Can he open my heart too….

Twist Me is a steamy age gap tale exploring love and self through Shibari. It is book six in the Tattoos and Temptation series featuring hot Miami nights, Latin desserts, and guys with ink.

It can be listened to as a standalone but the author recommends listening to the series in order or at least book three, Free Me, for maximum enjoyment.

Wonderfully Narrated Mia Monroe Book

Kale Williams’ narration of Mia Monroe’s Twist Me elevates an already wonderful story, as if it is beautifully tied up in a bow-with rope!

The journeys that both Grey and Mitsu travel are respected and treated with kindness and care, by both main characters. Mia creates the world and Kale helps us hear it!

The series just gets better and better!

Mia Monroe is at the top of my list of favorite authors and this series is an excellent example of why that is. Gray and Mitsu are peace and harmony personified - the beauty and love simply shine in Kale Williams’ excellent narration. Lovely book and amazing performance.

A Swoony No-Angst Romance Big on Communication

I've been intrigued by Mitsu since he was introduced earlier in this highly interconnected series, and his insta-lovey HEA romance with Grey was wonderfully swoony.

Narrator Kale Williams has made experiencing this series in audio a real treat. To quote this book, "Gah, his voice. If velvet had a sound; if honey could be heard; if honeysuckle made noise..." His wide range of distinct character voices is on full display here, and he captures Grey's nervous shyness and Mitsu's calm confidence perfectly.

Mitsu (near 40) is attracted to a person's energy, and the magnetic pull he feels toward Grey (25) is undeniable. Grey, who is trans, is cautious, afraid to trust and relinquish control, but can't deny feeling that same pull. Their romance is quite sweet, patient and thoughtful, and shibari provides another trust-building bridge between them (and is downright sensual), though it doesn't dominate the story.

Feeling safe to be vulnerable and having meaningful, affirming conversations are at the heart of this story (hooray for no silly misunderstandings), and cheers for the body-positive messaging. I would've welcomed a few character flaws and more of a slow roll in their getting together, but overall this is an enjoyable feel-good romance worth a listen.

The strong friends group spanning this series plays a lesser role in this story than some of the other books, but I'd still recommend reading the previous books going into this one, particularly Book 3. I received this free review copy audio book by request and have left this honest review voluntarily.

Star Crossed Culture

I am in love with the writing! The way each character speaks gives a vivid insight to his soul. Well played Ms. Monroe.

This book is fire!

This book - what can I say? After waiting for Mitsu and Grey's story, Mia Monroe doesn't disappoint. I honestly wasn't sure how she'd be able to tell Mitsu's story when he always seemed so mystical and otherworldly to me. She nailed it.
Mitsu, a Shibari master, is the epitome of calm and Zen. Grey, a transgender tattoo artist (go, team Black Heart!), is struggling with letting others know his gender identity. They mesh and blend perfectly.
Full of heat and sweet, this book was everything I'd hoped for from these two - and all you expect from a Mia Monroe story. Kale Williams again slays the audio and gives an amazing performance. It's perfect! A must listen!

Sweet!

This was a very sweet story! Loved Grey and Mitsu! They were fantastic characters. Loved how the story just flowed and the narrator did an awesome job!

Love ☯️

Holy smokes, Mitsu is a trip, man! He had to be such a fun character to get to know and write. He was unreal….practically ethereal. Gray was perfect for him. Their story was so awesome. So full of love. They filled my heart up and just listening to Mitsu almost made me believe in other’s energies. Great Mia Monroe!

And Kale Williams. You are a Goddamn gem. Like, unreal. I want you to narrate my life. You rock so much, thank you for your dedication.

Excellent series

I hope to see more of the series continue. I have listened to all of the books, and they were fantastic! You don’t always need high angst and drama.

Saved the Best for Last

This has been one of my favorite book series and I'm sad to see it end. Each just gets better. Icky sweet (in the best way), deep and meaningful character and relationship development. Kale does a perfect job narrating. Highly recommend!
