ARC received for an honest review



I have not read the previous books in the Harborside Nights series, but this did not take away from Tempting Tristan at all.

I love a story about military/ex military man (or anyone in a uniform) ... and a broken down military man who needs saving... yes please!

Alex is all that and a bag of chips. Sexy, brooding - and totally wanting the hot bartender.

Tristan has had a rotten run with rotten boyfriends and has pretty much given up... until Alex.

The attraction between them if off the charts, and while I am all for the insta-lust in relationships, I am not a fan of insta-love.

And Tristan and Alex certainly moved along at warp speed. It felt like it went from "Hi my name is" to "I want a HEA with you" in 4.5 seconds (or a week in their time).

Don't get me wrong, I did like them together, I loved that they are finally taking that step with each other, trying to find their happy place.

But I did feel that Tristan did all the giving. It might be just me, but it felt like Tristan did everything while Alex just took from him? But that may be just Tristan's nature and he wouldn't have it any other way?

I don't want to make is sound like I didn't like Tempting Tristan, because I did. I just felt like it was missing that extra something that I usually get from a Melissa Foster novel.
