Bulletproof

De: Jenna Galicki

Narrado por: Tyler Kent

Two wild, out-of-control rock stars. One at the top of his career, living the high life and enamored by the glitz and the glam. The other, just starting out and too sensitive for the rough-and-tumble world of a rock star.

Derek MacAlister, the wild one. Known for dancing on table tops, partying too hard, and possessing a never-ending thirst for excitement. With his bandmates now settled in committed relationships, he’s the last man standing. The only problem is that he wants to party all night long, but his best friends are content to stay at home. Enter Travis Fontana, a bad boy with a reputation for trouble, and Derek has his partner in crime.

Travis Fontana just scored the gig of a lifetime opening for the nation’s top heavy metal band. He’s a rebel who thrives on pushing the limits of a good time, and Bulletproof’s sexy, long-haired guitarist, Derek MacAlister, is right by his side to share the fun. Together, they’re double trouble.

But all is not as it seems. Underneath the painted-on smile and carefree exterior that Travis shows the world lies a tortured soul with a dark past. Little by little, Travis lets Derek see a side of him that no one else knows. Derek, unused to the unfiltered raw honesty that Travis shares, finds that he wants to take care of this troubled, vulnerable man and turns out to be Travis’ rock in times of crisis.

When the pressures of newfound fame begin to overwhelm Travis, he quickly starts to unravel. Pushed to the breaking point, it becomes clear that even Derek can’t save him. Travis needs to save himself.

Body and Mind!

Travis needs Derek in more ways than the physical satisfaction. Mental illness is something that is hard to live with, we can agree on that fact. Now, in this story you have a super rockstar that meets a potential rockstar, but the down fall is that star of brightness could never shine through because of crippling mental illness. In this story it's not about the sex. It's about keeping the love alive through all of the mental breakdowns. And trying to understand what that person is going through. Derek is that kind of man for Travis. Thank goodness for that. Because, that kind of love allowed Travis to address his mental illness, which lead him to become a bright star in the music industry that wrote his own path toward success and right toward their HEA! Oh yes, there is some juicy drama along the way. The narrator was good and I totally recommend this story! Enjoy.

Fun & Sexy

This is a fun and sexy listen. The story is good and entertaining. The voice actor does a great job sucking you into the story.

Heartbreakingly beautiful rock star romance

From the start you can tell both Derek and Travis have some serious issues, Travis more so. This was a well written portrayal of a rock star lifestyle. I enjoyed seeing each character evolved. Plenty of heartfelt emotional moments that helps you to connect and emphasize with the characters. Tyler Kent is a new to me narrator and I enjoyed his performance, looking forward to more listens from him. This audiobook was given to me at my request in exchange for an honest review.

Impactful

New to me author I will continue to read. It was so touching to see how innocent and sweetly vulnerable Travis was with Derek. Travis's band mates, especially Mark were jerks. I loved how Derek stepped in whem Travis got hurt. I didn't like Ashley, because she was a selfish twit. She knew her interferences were keeping the guys apart and she was a loosey goosey user. Travis's panic attacks broke my heart. I liked that Travis finally got help to manage them. It showed a great deal of strength and growth. Great ending. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life.

Great

I've read this story already and I loved it then. But listening to it takes it to a whole other level. The narrator did a great job. He kept me engaged and I loved all of his voices.

Pretty Good Audio

I Give this Book a 4/5 Star Rating.

Audiobook Review:
Overall: 4/5
Performance: 3.5/5
Story: 4/5
Narrator: Tyler Kent

Now this is more of a personal preference, I didn’t mind his version of Derek, but in a way I did wish both Derek and Travis voices were just a bit deeper.

But other than that I really enjoyed the way Tyler evoked emotion, really well done. I would happily listen to this again. ☺️

rock and roll...

and romance. Derek and Travis meet while on tour. What's starts as bit fun because something else. But the lights of rock and roll life reveal not everything is what it seems. high enjoyable story with great narration.

Quite an emotional romance

This was my first book from this author and I must say I enjoyed it. For the most part my thoughts on this book are on the plus side. Yes, there were a couple things I didn't love but nothing huge and insurmountable. There is a strong emotional story being told here and I really liked that. I found both of the main characters likable and I had a particularly soft-spot for Travis. I could very easily relate, connect and sympathize with him on many levels. I also loved that the author took a stand and helped to shine a light on the important subject of mental illness. Add to this what I thought was a beautiful, moving romance and you have all the makings for a solid read that was quite enjoyable. Only a single narrator for this book but I thought their voice was pleasant and easy to listen to.

Best of the series!💜

Raw and emotional. This was a well written story that addressed many important issues, such as drug addiction, abuse and depression. At moments this was a highly emotional experience and others it was fun loving and high spirited. The chemistry and bond that Derek and Travis shared was incredible. Their devilish personalities & wild adventures will have you on the edge of your seat. My favorite book of the series.
Tyler Kent’s performance was brilliant. His voice was not only paired perfectly with these characters but his voice acting was fantastic. He captured all the emotions and feelings of these characters. Well done.
This is book 4 with an HEA and can be read as a standalone.
I highly recommend this book/series.
I giving this book my Spotlight Award for best Rockstar Romance of 2022.

Derek and Travis

Derek and Travis
As the book summary says these are two wild out of control rock stars. Absolutely right. Two guys two different bands and same crazy thirst for wild fun. Derek feels left out now that his band dates are coupled up. He wants to feel included but not ready to settle down. He meets Travis another wild one who just wants to play with adventure. Travis comes from a sad unhealthy place with his story and the more Derek learns the more he wants to be his guide to a healthier person so they can be together. This story shows a battle with anxiety, depression and panic attacks and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love this book and this whole series so much and I highly recommend. Great narration too.
