More Heat than the Sun Box Set: Vol 1

By: John Wiltshire

Narrated by: Gary Furlong

This bundle contains the first three novels in the best-selling More Heat than the Sun M/M thriller series.

The complete series consists of nine thrilling, addictive novels. Start your journey with Nik and Ben here.

Book one: Love Is a Stranger

Ex-SAS soldier Ben Rider falls in love with his enigmatic married boss, Sir Nikolas Mikkelsen, but Nikolas is living a lie. A lie so profound that when the shadows are lifted, Ben realizes he's in love with a very dangerous stranger. Ben has to choose between Nikolas and safety, but sometimes danger comes in a very seductive package.

Book two: Conscious Decisions of the Heart

Ben Rider and Nikolas Mikkelsen learn that danger comes in all shapes and sizes and often in places you least expect it. Nikolas' dark past calls to him, inexorably dragging him back into its seductive embrace.

While he goes on an errand of mercy to Russia, Ben travels to Denmark to learn Nikolas' language. Convinced Russia's vastness will swallow Nikolas, Ben doesn't see the enemy much closer to home. Thinking he has lost Nikolas, Ben then makes a terrible decision that threatens to destroy everything they have together.
Focused on this very personal horror, bound by a new level of commitment, they have no idea that a greater threat is coming. And when it arrives, it changes everything—even the definition of commitment.

Book three: The Bridge of Silver Wings

Nikolas and Ben discover that bonds aren't forged with blood or scars, but in the hearts of men strong enough to love.

Siberia in winter isn't a place for good men. There is nothing Nikolas won't do to keep Ben alive. Nikolas has exorcised his demons, but when they end up stranded in Russia, the monster inside needs to be let loose. Ben discovers the truth of the adage "be careful what you wish for"!

Nikolas then faces an enemy he can't defeat: Ben Rider himself. Discovering a new family, Ben realizes he's been living too long in the shadows cast by Nikolas' all-consuming love. For the first time, life apart from Nikolas is possible. Is Nikolas strong enough to let Ben go?

OK story line

the amount of sex is just ridiculous, the book would have been half the length without it.
I fast forwarded threw as much as I could because it was just annoying.

Completely amazing stories

The narration of this box set is hands-down the best I’ve heard. The story itself is amazing from beginning to end. The character definition is amazing I am extremely hooked!

This was an amazing love story with Mystery. The audio was great.

This author does not have enough books to consume. Please give us more of these two and of new exiting characters.

Amazing

Love the characters Nicks evil and quips are just a cover for his softness and Ben is so good and adoring you can’t help but love him. And a very intriguing story line with some oh so hot sex scenes mixed in.

Consistent good story telling.

Kept me absorbed for 50 hours! I loved the characters and the drama. Both the main characters were really masculine in the best possible way.

Brilliant series, worth listening to

Gary Furlong’s narration adds a lot to this already amazing series.

Lots of adventure, suspense, and hot m/m sex. These first three books in the series will keep one well-engaged for hours, days, and more. Highly recommended!

Compelling strong gay character driven work

Very enjoyable to go through the intriguing stories as they weave through adventures and grow in their relationship.

Difficult read but several steps above typical M/M

As one of the reviewers commented, this should have come with trigger warnings for SEVERAL rapes and very graphic violence, including some that involved children. This is not the typical formulaic M/M romance fluff but involves several deeply flawed characters, many with severe violent personality disorders. This volume has a lot more in common with These Violent Delights than a Josh Lanyon romantic thriller. It is written very well and performed by a talented voice actor. It held my attention and the 20+ hours passed very quickly and I found myself extending car trips just so that I could continue listening to this audiobook.

congratulations

thanks for one of the best made me mad, cry and think of my love

More than I expected

This was the volumes 1-3. I really liked the story for the most part and the characters. At times I got a little lost in all that was happening and had to go back and listen again, but for the most part it kept my attention. Some scenes were a bit gory for me but fortunately there weren’t to many overall. A lot of sex, bordering on too much at times which takes away from it in my opinion. I am going to get the next volume and see how it goes. 9 books about the same characters is maybe a bit much for my taste but we will see. Good value for a credit. Narration is wonderful.
