Salt Kiss

Lyonesse, Book 1

De: Sierra Simone

Narrado por: Oscar Reyes

After being a soldier, working as a bodyguard should have been simple: Keep the owner of DC’s ultra-secret club safe, don’t think about his midnight eyes or his devil’s smile, don’t surrender my body to his wicked desires.

But I underestimated Mark Trevena and the power of his dark, seductive world. I underestimated the hold he’d have on me, the way I would do anything for him at all. And so when he asks me to escort his soon-to-be bride home, I can only—miserably, broken-heartedly–say yes.

Isolde is nothing like I expect, however. Quiet and lonely and sharp, a girl who likes knives and God, a girl whose nightmares echo my own. One night while sailing under the cold stars, we share a reckless, tear-soaked kiss.

I’m doomed. Falling in love with Mark was one thing, but his bride too? Being in love with a husband and wife at the same time?

Torture. Misery. A tragedy if tragedies came with bruises, sweat, sighs.

But it isn’t enough to merely fall into the forbidden. Because in Mark Trevena’s world, the fall is only the beginning….

Full Stop!

Loved it! 5 ⭐️ 5🌶
Before you start this one, listen to Salt in the Wound. 3/4 of this book is MM. Salt in the wound is MF. I'm assuming book 3 is MFM!! 😍 Gave 4 on the story, per I was expecting to love it from the beginning. I fell in love at the end. 🩵

OMG Miss Simone is genius! THIS IS GREAT

I did not think one can tap "American Queen" but OMG this book is steamy AF! NEVER in 100 years had I thought a story between 2 man can make me fill things… this definitely goes to my top 5 of this year!

My 2nd time listening to this book!

Salt kiss is another beautiful intense slow burn book by Sierra Simone. It is a very hot, kinky story with angsty forbidden desire and love. It's told from Tristan's POV, who is a bodyguard for Mark and later Isolde. Salt in the Wound is the first part of the story and I highly recommend starting with it first.

You can expect the following from this book:
- Beautiful, emotional bodyguard
- A lot of hot kink scenes (dom/sub, wax, rulers, rope)
- Angst
- Emotional Scars
- Dark past
- M/M & M/F
- Forbidden desire/love
- Arranged marriage
- Age gap

I enjoyed this experience with Tristan. I liked how Mark and Isolde could see right through his soul and see who he really is, a broken tortured beautiful man. Both brought out different sides of him and I loved that we got to see so many parts of him. He craved love so much, I felt it for him. All of his emotions oozed out of the pages. I usually prefer dual POV but I loved that this book was from Tristan's POV only. I already knew this would be a trilogy but I died because of the cliffhanger! I need more of this story!! I cannot wait for the next book.

Exquisitely, painfully erotic…

First off, I am a Sierra Simone devotee. Her writing and the dynamics she carefully crafts between her characters are delicious and intricate. I read and re-read the New Camelot series and am loving this series so far centering on Mark, Tristan and Isolde. Mark is so brutal and skilled and sure, and i can’t wait to see what happens next. I enjoyed the story overall and am panting for June to roll around to see how the three of them come together and how outside events will coalesce.

I’ve heard this narrator before and overall really liked his reading of Tristan. Didn’t blow my socks off but a really enjoyable listen overall.

Amazing

Loved every second. Great narrator and amazing story. This felt like watching a movie. I'm on the edge of my seat for the next book!
