Publisher's summary

Two FBI agents struggle with desire in the shadow of a killer, in the third installment of Aces & Eights.

Nate Gentry has been a rock for his two younger brothers since the day their mom walked out and left them with their abusive father. Now that they've grown up, he's watched Alex and Court fall in love and settle down. But Nate isn't made for romance. He keeps his relationships casual. And getting casual with his partner is a fantasy he can't shake...

Taylor Collins has feelings for Nate, too - and though they run hot, her best friend on the team is strictly off limits. Until a spark in his eyes says, Go for it. But reaching out could prove to be a bad move now that they're working closer together than ever, and on the most dangerous case of their careers.

An investigation into a brutal series of murders is stirring up bad memories for Taylor, and neither she nor Nate can imagine how close to home it's going to hit. When it does, Nate will risk everything - including his heart - to keep Taylor safe.

Gentry Brothers rule!

Love, love, love the Gentry Brothers! This is Nate's story and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Sebastian York is the perfect Nate Gentry. Fingers crossed there is a book about their sister.

Good Series

I enjoyed Nate's story. There was enough plot to keep me interested. Sebastian York's voice was of course wonderful. The man can melt buttah with that voice! I generally like Amy McFadden's narrations. It seems like Taylor's character should've had a bit stronger or deeper voice which really isn't McFadden's. Otherwise, narration was good. The hang ups I have with the story itself seems to be with quite a few romances these days. Too much repetition regarding sexual scenes, repeating thoughts about how someone smells, touching the lower back, kissing below the ear, that electricity or charge the characters feel, blah! I swear, these things are in every book I listen to these days. If half of those scenes were cut out then the story would be cut from 9 hours to probably 6. There must be some kind of unwritten checklist about what romance writers have to include in every single book they write! If there's a book about the sister, I hope there will be more story line and not so much of the fluff that gets put in.

Excellent narration and story

This is a great story with mysteries and strong, interesting characters. The romance is graphic in parts. The narration is wonderful! Great story and narration!

Another good one from Sandra Owens

The Gentry brothers are back with Nate's story although it works well as a standalone too. Nate and Taylor have been working together as FBI agents and run into a case that hits close to home for Taylor. Someone had been killing prostitutes and then dressing them up to be found. Taylor's mother had been killed as a prostitute years ago so this really upset Taylor. As the killer ramps up his killing spree, Nate and Taylor grow closer and try to stop him before it is too late. Good story, anxiously awaiting Kinsey's story.

Perfectly narrated for this story!

I would compare it to Sandra Owen's other books in this series and the K2 books.

What about Amy McFadden and Sebastian York ’s performance did you like?

I loved the emotion and the way they were able to get the story across with the emotion in their voices.

I had a few giggles at the Gentry brothers.

Any additional comments?

I love this series so much and I was so excited to listen to Nate's book. Each of these men have had awesome stories to tell. Nate and Taylor's story was exciting and more importantly, I loved watching Nate let his walls down. He and Taylor deserved a happily ever after and I was so glad that they found it. The narration really enhanced the story. It was a great story!

SEBASTIAN YORK ... YUM !!!

Wonderfully written and down right captivating
Can't wait for the last installment of this series.

Love these characters!

This was the book I was waiting on and it was worth the wait. The characters were well balanced with mystery and intrgue. I like that the characters cross the books too. The narrator's were well chosen. Now I am looking forward to the next book!
