Stand & Deliver

De: Rhenna Morgan

Narrado por: John Lane

“Author Rhenna Morgan has hit another one out of the park as readers are given another intimate glimpse into the Men of Haven, a brotherhood where the men and the women they love protect and care for each other above everyone else.”—RT Book Reviews

Come hell or high water, the Men of Haven always ride or die for one of their own.


Security expert Beckett Tate has met his match in colleague Gia Sinclair. He longs to run his hands over each and every one of her lush curves. She’s wicked smart and wicked hot. He’s given her time to get used to the idea of “them,” but her time is up and he’s ready to go all in on claiming what’s his.

Despite her love of all things girlie, Gia’s no typical Southern belle. She’s built her skills and reputation in a field normally dominated by men, and now she has a kick-ass career she loves. She certainly doesn’t need a man to take care of her—especially not one who’s pure alpha. Still, Beckett’s the one man who can satisfy the desires she’s hidden under her tough exterior, and she’s hooked.

Letting Beckett take the lead in the bedroom comes naturally to Gia—not constantly proving herself to him professionally is more of a struggle. And when someone attacks her character and career, Gia and Beckett will have to find a balance: her willingness to let go just a little, with his trust in her abilities and his deep, primal need to protect his woman.


The Men of Haven: fierce passion, unyielding loyalty.
Especially when it comes to their women.

Loved this book!!

Absolutely loved Gia & Beckett’s story. Loved the tenacity of Beckett and his iron focus when he finally figured out what he wanted. Gia was such a strong woman that it was interesting to see her finally have someone that took control but also respected her enough to let her lead when she needed it. I liked the balance. Interesting on the SPD disorder. When Beckett lost control and Gia meets his inner beast I’m not gonna lie, it was seriously hot!! Narrator’s voice for Beckett has a low bass and growl that is simply yummy. Overall loved the book, characters and the audio! Highly recommend this one!

OMG This was awesome!

Rhenna did it again! I was so enthralled with this book, I couldn't stop listening. I loved the other 5 books and this one doesn't disappoint. I loved Beckett and Gia's story and can't wait to hear Axel's. Make it good Rhenna, we have waited long enough for the Scot to be taken down. Give him a heroine worth his salt!!! John as usual did a great job narrating. I will patiently wait for the next book in this series.

🌻Another enjoyable listen!🌻

I have liked this series a lot! There is action, intrigue, humor, Alpha Men and Women, sexy heat, a true example of family and not a lot of unnecessary angst! What more could a romance junkie want?

This series has been loaded with characters that have had a rough road getting to where they are. However, instead of being hateful and resentful, they have built their own support group to help them find their way to happy. Their hobby? Helping others that need a hand up. There’s no theme that could be more beautiful. These characters are full of layers and have surrounded themselves with people that accept their flaws and their strengths. Instead of having a chip on their shoulders, they constantly use their life challenges to build themselves up, and when they find love, they add more positive energy to their support group. There continues to be a lot of good lessons that can be learned by open minded listeners, in this series!

An excellent not-exactly-MC romance

I think I’ve stumbled upon a new series to binge. It features protector men and strong women while avoiding most of the toxic romance tropes that drive me nuts.

I’m not a fan of motorcycle club romance because it invariably involves too much thugs-N-drugs for me to pretend the guys are just the Robin Hood type of not really criminals. This series, however, appears to only take the good features of MC romance, like a family by choice who will ride or die for each other. There’s still some alpha male behavior and talk of “claiming his woman” but thankfully none of the cringey MC lingo like calling her his old lady or making her wear his mark/colors.

I like that Gia is smart and capable. I also like that the conflict between them wasn’t too angsty and that the story instead focused on external threats. The 10% intrigue is merely the vehicle to support the 90% romance and thus is a bit of a stretch in the credibility department. That is easily forgiven in exchange for the smoking chemistry and delicious dirty talk.

Mr. Lane’s deep gravelly voice was excellent for Beckett and I’m frankly in awe of Mr. Lane’s many accents for the rest of the Haven men. I had no problem telling all the men apart. The biggest hardship for me was telling all the ladies apart. But, I think that has more to do with me starting the series here, after so many girlfriends and mommas have joined the club. It was quite the boisterous bunch of chickas.
My big question now is whether to head to the next book or go back to the beginning.

Why?

Why are so called romances have to be between manhoes and the women who pathetically pine for them. The H was carting around the woman he was currently banging. The h gets drunk and humiliatingly admits how much she wants him. Talk about used goods.

Also, SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER no matter the reason, the h was too late to cover her principle.

BUT, LOVED THE NARRATOR!

This one was OK

This was a hard one for me because I really wanted to like this story. I felt like there was a lot of heat on the pages. Some of it went on for chapters which did get a little boring for me. I also felt like the actual story wasn't very exciting. I knew who the problem was right away. I loved Beckett's protection of Gia. And once he knew she wanted him, too, he wouldn't let anything come between them. This is a good series, but this particular story didn't do it for me.

There was only a male narrator and I think the story may have benefited from the female voice. He did a good job, but I would have like to hear Gia in a woman's voice.
