Hard to Be Good

A Hard Ink Novella

De: Laura Kaye

Narrado por: Jack Dupont

Two damaged men.

One dangerous mission.

One healing love.

These are the men of Hard Ink.

Hard Ink Tattoo owner Jeremy Rixey has taken on his brother's stateside fight against the enemies that nearly killed Nick and his Special Forces team a year ago. Now Jeremy's whole world has been turned upside down by the chaos - and by a brilliant, quiet blond man who tempts him to settle down for the first time ever.

Recent kidnapping victim Charlie Merritt has always been better with computers than with people, so when he's drawn into the SF team's investigation of his army colonel father's corruption, he's surprised to find acceptance and friendship - especially since his father never accepted who he was. Even more surprising is the heated tension he feels with sexy, tattooed Jeremy, Charlie's opposite in almost every way.

With tragedy and chaos all around them, temptation flashes hot, and Jeremy and Charlie can't help but wonder why they're trying so hard to be good.

Not my Norm, but so Hot!

This is the first Male-Male romance i have ever read but wow, it was so hot! I love this series and this was a sexy, steamy, dreamy little novela

Love this so much!

I wish it was the narrator from the other books but it's still freaking amazing!

I love this series

I'll be honest, being a heterosexual female, I wasn't sure how this novella would make me feel. I've only listened/read one other m/m book, the Black Dagger brotherhood, and because of the long relationship of those two characters, it wasn't wierd at all. I have always been perfectly open with anyone's choice of sexual preference, what I was unsure about was being privy to m/m sexual interactions. Silly? Yeah, it was. I think it was because it was an experience that I couldn't personally relate to. I know now that the specifics of the act itself doesn't even matter, it's the emotional closeness that really tells the story. That point is made very clear, in this novella and anyone who loves a romance will enjoy this tale.

FINALLY! A love story for gay characters

Gay characters in romance novels are usually the side kicks or background noise. Every now and again they get a more significant role. But in a mainstream romance series? Never! Until this one. I adore these boys and it's very satisfying to read/listen to their story of getting the happily ever after. Plus, the steamy romance was awesome! A++++

narration

The voices for the two lead men were often too similar to easily distinguish who was saying what . And the narrator often whispered their words, which got old.

Another Amazing Hard Ink

Jer and Charlie are my favorite couple in the sieres. Hearing their voice come alive is the very best way to experience this couple!
Jack and Laura hit it out of the park!

Great!

It was short but I really enjoyed it...They are just what they each needed and fit right in with everyone else.

my very favorite in this series

have read it at. least 6 times and now listened!
once love love this book

Nice.

Glad that Jeremy and Charlie got their own story. They are perfect for each other though quite different.

My first same sex romance!

I was very happy with Charlie and Jeremy's story. I needed too know how they ended up together after everyone elses hook ups and how these boys felt for each other etc. So I dove into my first same sex romance novella and was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. I think my only problem was with narration. It is hard to differentiate the characters especially when they are either whispering to each other or talking passionately. If only the guy narrating had been able to change voices from one to the other a little bit more. It would have made it much less confusing. As well as a little less whispering unless they have 2 narrators. It would have been much more distinct. Other than that, I loved it and I learned some stuff too!
