"What if you didn't have to stop kissing him, Memphis? What if you didn't have to choose me over him?" (Brennan)

Memphis

At 34 years old, ex-DEA agent Memphis Wheland has lived, loved, and lost...everything. The ultimate betrayal by the man he gave everything to has left Memphis with no family, no career, and a bone-deep bitterness that refuses to release him from its icy grip. His work with an underground vigilante organization is the only light in his otherwise bleak existence. That and the occasional no-strings hookup with men whose only focus in that moment, and for as long as Memphis wants them, is him and only him. No clingy exes, no unrequited love, no relationship drama. Period.

Brennan

With his entire life ahead of him, graduate student Brennan Devereaux wasn't expecting it to change in the blink of an eye. But when a case of mistaken identity nearly costs Brennan his life, it isn't just his future that's about to change, but his past too. Because for years he's been in love with a young man who only sees him as a friend and nothing more. And while he was content to love Tristan Barretti from afar, he hadn't expected to be drawn to the mysterious stranger who saved his life and changed it with a simple promise.

I'm not letting you go.

Tristan

At 19, Tristan Barretti should have had the world at his feet. His musical gifts have garnered him prestige as well as admission to the famed Julliard School in New York and he has a family that most people would kill for. But the protective bubble his fathers have kept him in has burst and he's discovered that life outside his unconditionally loving family isn't as accepting of a kid born with HIV. A poor decision to find answers to questions better left unasked, along with the complications of living with his disease, have Tristan returning to Seattle and the solace of his family.

Choices

Even though a physical relationship with Brennan was supposed to be just that, Memphis finds himself unable to refuse his young lover's request to help put a stop to the threat against Tristan. Even knowing full well that Brennan's heart lies with the man he claims is nothing more than a friend, Memphis accepts the challenge of ensuring Tristan's safety.

But when the quiet music student stops being a "job" and starts being something much more, Memphis is torn between his growing feelings for both young men and the fear that he'll be facing an even greater betrayal that he'll never be able to come back from.

Except none of that matters when the threat that Memphis never saw coming puts Brennan and Tristan in the crosshairs....

Another HIT in The Protectors!!

Sloane Kennedy nails another book in this deliciously tawdry series. From great highs, to deep lows, the saga continues. Thanks to Michael Dean, as always, my favorite narrator melded beautifully with one of my favorite authors!!

**On to Family Christmas!**

Hard story to listen to

This was rough one. Multiple trigger warnings. A graphic, detailed scene that gutted me. But beautiful men with tortured pasts whose love story is worth reading.

Another great one from Sloane Kennedy

This was my first MMM book and I loved it. I was unsure of how the three together would work but Sloane pulled it off beautifully.

And Michael Pauly is slowing winning me over on narration...

Good story

Overall i loved the story. Always loved the narrator. Book was a little heavy on the sex scenes... But still loved it

enjoyed

lots of potential triggers, pay attention to opening if you have any. this author always puts her characters through the ringer and this book was no exception. wow.
lots and lots of sexy times.

Amazing heartbreaking series!!!

This is a seriously addicting series that's highly stressful and full of angst but very rewarding at the end. I do have to take breathers between books because of the angst but I always go back for more!!!!
Each book's story is so memorable because I'm so moved by the characters past and struggles through-out, what an AMAZING series this is!! 💓 Michael Pauley does a great job with the narration 😀

A complicated and powerful story

This is the story of Brennan and Memphis and Tristan.
Its a complicated and and powerful story.
So much pain.. my heart broke for all of these men.
I loved the way two became three. This is an amazing audio from beginning to end. It makes you feel so much.

Sloane Kennedy always enjoyable

As with other books in the series, I really enjoyed Vengeance. However, having listen to several of them they seem to be with somewhat repetitive. Strong damaged alpha type falls in love with slightly weaker damaged man. Still with that said I enjoyed it, and narration was excellent.

Heartbreaking!

This story pulled me in right from the very start! It ripped my heart out, tore me to pieces, and then put me back together again right along with the characters. Memphis, Brennan, and Tristan are truly perfect together and complete one another, I couldn't imagine them any other way. They go through so much together and incredibly find a way to find their way back to each other. So many obstacles, so many emotions, and so many horrible events that it's a miracle they didn't all just give up. This entire series just gets better and better as I go through it, I love seeing characters from the other stories and I can't wait for the next one to come out in audio. The narrator is absolutely incredible. He perfectly captures the characters, the story and all of the emotions all the way through. I really hope he continues to narrate the rest of this series.

Vengeance

I LOVE YOUR BOOKS (ALL OF THEM ) JUST WISH THAT MORE PEOPLE WERE MORE ACCEPTABLE TO ALL PEOPLE NO MATTER WHAT THIER SEXUAL PREFERENCES.. THIS WORLD WHOULD BE A MUCH BETTER PLACE
