Finley

Sunset Cove, Book 1

De: Ella Frank

Narrado por: Charlie David

It's time to come home, Finn.

It's been seven years since Daniel Finley left his hometown in Florida for the hustle and bustle of Chicago's city life.

Since then, he's worked hard for his position at the prestigious law firm Leighton & Associates, even when it's caused distance and isolation from his family and friends. But that's all about to change.

On his 30th birthday, he receives the one thing he never dared hope for. Something that was promised to him years earlier - a note. One simple sentence from the man he's never been able to forget.

Six words will forever change the course of their lives.

Brantley Hayes has it all. Or so he thinks. When he first made the decision to take a job down in Florida, his family thought he was crazy. But, after years of living in the quiet beach town, he finally feels a sense of community. He's surrounded himself with friends who are like family, has a job he loves, and owns a spectacular beachfront property that is his sanctuary.

Yet he still feels unfulfilled, as if a piece of the puzzle is missing, and he knows exactly which piece it is. On an impulse, he follows through with a promise he made years earlier. A promise to call home the one he sent away.

Nothing is as simple as it seems.

After years of separation, the former lovers are reunited, but Brantley wasn't expecting to encounter the high walls now guarding Daniel's heart.

Daniel may not be the same person he was when he left, but he knows that the first step to healing is the note in his hand.

Loved the story and Crisden terrific as always!

I'm a little worried about how this becomes the Finn that I remember from the Temptation Series, though.

Great story. Excellent narration.

Melodrama, stubborn men, steamy scenes. What more could you ask for? Oh. Yeah. Pretty boys on the beach...

Love Brantley and Finn

Even better than the first time!

I read this book a year ago and immediately fell in love with Finn and Brantley. Student/professor is one of my favorite tropes and boy did this one ticked off my boxes.

Brantley was Finn’s professor and from the very first moment their eyes met, it was instant attraction. Despite Brantley’s efforts to stay away from him, Finn was determined to win him over.

Brantley couldn’t deny his feeling for Finn and finally gives in to him. The two become inseparable. The kind of forever love that nothing can break. Until Brantley makes a decision that shatters them both.

It’s this decision that keeps them apart for seven years. Until one letter from Brantley threatens to bring back all the feelings Finn tried so hard to forget.

It’s like time never stopped. All the love, the memories and the pain are as raw as the first time. But all it takes is one look at Brantley and Finn knows that he’ll never get over him.

What started as a return home to get Brantley out of his system, only served to reiterate that his love for his professor only got stronger with the years.

Brantley made the mistake of letting Finn go once so he could have a better future but this time, he’ll do anything in his power to keep him.

This time he’ll drop everything and follow the man he was always meant to be with.

I loved this CRAZY! Elizabeth @ Carolina Chic’s Read

I had this on my wish list for a while and let me tell you! This was just as hot and sexy as any other story from Ella Frank. This second chance M/M romance was just what I needed and what we all love from Ella Frank! Enjoy!

Loved it!

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

Hot Steamy Hot

What was one of the most memorable moments of Finley?

The strong connection between Finley and Brantley was obvious. Wasn't sure how the story would play out. Most memorable was when Finley quick his job and found Brantley waiting for him at his apartment.

Which character – as performed by Charlie David – was your favorite?

He did an awesome job with all the characters. He brought them all to life.

If you could take any character from Finley out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I would say Derek, he seemed the most fun.

Any additional comments?

Loved that Logan and Tate showed up from themTrmptation series. My only complaint was I was sometimes confused by the flashbacks.
