About this listen
Mallory Grant and Nixon Scott met purely by chance. With an instant attraction between them, the pair was easily tempted to give in to their desires.
Despite the fact that Mallory wants more with Nixon, she’s willing to settle for what he is prepared to offer: a physical relationship with no strings.
But when Mallory gets robbed at gunpoint, Nixon starts paying more attention.
She assumed the robber was a man looking for some quick cash. Nixon wondered if that was all there was to it. After all, the thief’s words to her left him feeling unsettled.
And when Mallory gets kidnapped, Nixon realizes his instincts were right all along. Only now he’s worried that he might lose the woman who means more to him than he’s ever shared.

Story
Royce Blackstone has one rule: Never get personally involved with his clients. As the owner of Harper Security Ops, Royce is well aware of everything and everyone inside his building. When he’s about to go in after the biggest lead on latest case that’s landed on his desk, Royce didn’t expect he’d have to abort the mission early. It might have seemed like Tarryn Hendrix was simply looking to learn some new skills, but dedicating two years of her life to training her mind and body is all part of Tarryn’s plan.

There wasn’t a lot that surprised me. My years in the Navy taught me a lot, my years hunting human traffickers taught me the rest. Meeting a beautiful woman in a bar and spending the night with her should’ve been a blip on my radar. Instead, I spent years trying to forget her. In the middle of a rescue operation, fate dropped her back into my life, but there was a twist—she wasn’t alone.

Story
Brady Hewitt was all too familiar with the horrors of war. They clung to him, or maybe he clung to them, using the nightmares as an excuse to keep others at bay—especially his boss’ daughter, Hadley Walker. Beautiful, sexy, ambitious, and forbidden. Not just because the former Special Forces soldier respected her father and liked his job, she was too good for him—all sunshine and smiles while he was darkness and filth.

Owen Cullen was a dream. Not a dream come true though, because I’d never dared to dream. He was my wildest fantasy, a hallucination, a delusion. The handsome man who’d saved my life—twice. He was a real-life hero, and I was...what was I? Filth, that was what I was.

This may be my toughest mission yet. None of my SEAL training or my time in the CIA has prepared me for this: a prickly, five-foot-nothing hellcat Jasmin Smith. She was mine. She can fight it all she wanted, but in the end, I would have her every way a man can have his woman. She was a sassy little thing, making me work to bend her to my demands. But I will! I will bend her and tie her to me so tight she would never be able to get free. Only problem is I had to break her first. I had secrets that she needed to know.

So goood!!!
Never a dull moment.. books starts with drama, and you can’t blame a girl for trying to get why she wants.. thankfully Nixon and Mallory were able to work it out and find their happily ever after!! Huge fan of Ak Evans.. have not come across a book of hers I don’t like!!! I think I could listen to Stephen Dexters voice over and over..

Harper Security Book 2!
Tempted is the second book in the Harper Security Ops series by A. K. Evans. Tempted is about Nixon and Mallory.
Nixon is the cousin of the owner of Harper Security and works as a kidnapping and ransom expert at the company and Mallory the best friend of Nix's brother's girlfriend.
Nixon and Mallory met when Mallory received a call from her best friend’s father when she didn’t come home the night before. Mallory rushes to her ex-boyfriend’s apartment to see if they were back together after breaking up due to her job as an escort but he didn’t seem to be concerned as he was hurting from the split. While talking together with Mallory letting him know that the escort job is only an escort job, he receives a text that changes things, someone has taken her. They rush to Harper Security, and this is where Mallory meets Nixon and gets to see him at work and watch as they all pitch in to help locate her. Mallory is attracted to Nixon and wants more than a friends with benefits, but Nixon doesn’t do relationships. Mallory knows she deserves happiness and since Nixon can’t give her the relationship that she so desperately wants will he find that love is worth fighting for if it is with the right person?
A. K. Evans does not disappoint! Another HEA and these are always the best!
I can’t wait for the next one to come out!

Great Listen!
Nixon and Mallory’s story is full of emotion along with some suspense and drama along the way. I truly enjoyed their story and seeing Nixon come to his senses and fall for Mallory 100%. A great addition to this series.
Stephen Dexter and Lindsay Dornet were excellent narrators!

Another Fantastic Audio!!
Tempted is the 2nd book in the Harper Security Ops series. Mallory & Nixon meet by chance when Mallory's best friend is kidnapped and Nixon is working the case. Mallory is instantly interested in Nixon, but Nixon is in no way interested in a relationship. Seeing the how giving your heart to someone can shatter a person, Nixon has said he'd never get that close to someone. He is a one night stand guy. Mallory, on the other hand, has never had a one night stand, but offers a friends with benefits relationship with Nixon if that's all he's willing to give. As time goes on, Nixon pulls away leaving Mallory hurt that she can't seem to get the friendship she was hoping for. When Mallory is robbed at gunpoint & later kidnapped from her business, Nixon is determined to bring her home safely so he can share his true feelings with her.
I previously read Tempted, but this review is based off the audio version of the book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the book, but the Audio was even better. The narrators were great to listen to and paired well together. There's just something about being able to hear to emotion in the narrators voice that makes everything feel like you're right there in the book. I highly recommend this whole series, whether it's in book or audiobook form. You cannot go wrong with Evans series. Each book continues to get better!!

What a great story
What a great read. The romance between Mallory and Nixon felt realistic to me. I liked the suspense woven through the story but, felt like at times as the reader I was being led into a separate storyline that didn’t really matter, i.e. Connor, Ashley, and Anthony. Looking forward to the next story. In the audiobook narrated by Stephen Dexter and Lidia Dornet I thought they did a fabulous job depicting the characters.

Nixon and Mallory
In this wonderfully written story, we get to find out about Magnolia's best friend, Mallory and Killian's brother, Nixon, from Terrible Lie. Nixon is determined to never have a serious relationship and Mallory tries to have a friends with benefits relationship with him, but fails because there is no friends in their relationship. But there are threats to Mallory's life and Nixon pushes aside his vow to protect her.
The narration for this book was fantastic! Both narrators read their parts with inflection and it was perfect for bringing Mallory and Nixon to life.

All the feel!
Nixon and Mallory had me in all my feels. The slow burn was so worth it! If you’re looking for a solid storyline and HEA this is it. Mallory knew what she wanted and wouldn’t settle for less while Nixon knew what he wanted but fought it every step of the way. It was the perfect mix of suspense, friendship, family and love. A.K Evans has hit it out of the park again. Well done!

A Great Performance by Dexter and Dornet
The fact that I adore everything A.K. Evans puts out is a given. She balances the steamy chemistry and heart-tugging moments of a great contemporary romance with an element of danger and suspense that keeps us turning those pages. “Tempted,” Book 2 in the Harper Security series, is no different. I couldn’t wait for Nixon to get his story and then realizing his other half is another character I adore from this lineup just made it that much more special. Lidia Dornet (a new-to-me narrator) did a good job of bringing out the feistiness of Mallory, and she is an excellent complement to the $exy-as-sin Nixon (who has a great heart but honestly just needs to get out of his own way at times), played by a favorite of mine, the amazing Stephen Dexter. There is nothing I don’t love about this tale, and the roadblocks in their journey toward Happily Ever After only make it sweeter. As always, Evans gives us masterful storytelling with main and side characters that we can’t help but adore, and I just can’t wait for the next one! A big ol’ pile of shining stars here, A.K. Evans!

A fast-paced story with plenty of action, danger,
A fast-paced story with plenty of action, danger, and suspense as Mallory finds herself in the middle of nefarious plans. Mallory and Nixon have a rocky start as an attempted friends with benefits relationship, but as feelings grow they're forced to face the truths.... and when Mallory is kidnapped Nixon is forced to face his feelings head on leading to their HEA. The narration is great and brings the story to life.
