About this listen
Enjoy heart-meltingly beautiful and toe-curlingly sexy romance in Tempted by Love, an emotionally riveting story about a man who has lost it all and carries a torturous secret, a divorced single mother who has everything to lose, and the little girl who helps them heal. Fall in love on the sandy shores of Silver Island, home to coffee shops, boat races, midnight rendezvous, and the sexy, sharp-witted Steeles.
In Tempted by Love:
Years ago, best-selling author Jack “Jock” Steele lost his girlfriend and baby in a horrific accident that drove a wedge between Jock and his family, keeping him from sharing a devastating secret. An aging philanthropist saved him from the brink of despair, and for a decade Jock cared for his ailing friend who became his family. Now his friend has passed away and left him a fortune - on the condition that he publishes another book. Jock is floundering, unsure how to rebuild the life he’d walked away from, much less find his muse, have another relationship with a woman, or even think about having a family of his own. But he can’t get his sweet, sexy new friend, single mother Daphne Zablonski out of his head, and her adorable toddler must know something he doesn’t, because she wraps her tiny fingers around his heart and won’t let go.
Daphne has been through the wringer with her ex-husband and doesn’t believe true love is in the cards for her. Friends she can handle, but letting a man see her mom bod naked? Especially someone as strikingly handsome and unbelievably sexy as Jock? No, thank you. Besides, she has a toddler to chase after and enough fictional boyfriends to fill her lonely nights. If only her book boyfriends could make her body tingle the way one look from her mysterious neighbor does.
As Jock and Daphne’s friendship turns to something too tempting to deny, their lives take an unexpected turn. Can a man who has lost everything find redemption with a woman who has everything to lose? And then there’s that secret....
©2020 Melissa Foster (P)2020 Melissa FosterDaphne may have made the wrong choice when it came to her daughter Hadley’s father, but she wouldn’t change a thing as her daughter is her whole world. She is older and wiser now and determined to protect the hearts of both her and her daughter which is complicated by the fact that their enchantment with Jock seems to be one-sided.
This is an emotional story about love, family and new beginnings between two people who have both been hurt in the past in different ways. When Daphne learns about Jock’s devastating loss, she helps him heal by showing that he has no control over what could have been, but he does have the choice about what can be. The narrators did a great job of bringing the emotion and humor of the story to the forefront. 🎧Audiobook Obsession

I absolutely love Melissa’s books. They always pull me in and leave a smile on my face. I loved the relationship between Jock and Daphne. I can’t wait to dive into the next book in the series My True Love to get Grant and Jules love story.
Jennifer and Brian did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life and I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would highly recommend this book if you love romance books. It will give you all the feels!!!

In true Melissa style you are met with a host of wonderful characters with strong family and friend connections on Silver Island.
Daphne is a single mother to the adorable three year old Hadley – she is such a sweetie that you just can’t help fall in love with her, but Jock seems to have a hard time being around Daphne when Hadley is around making her believe that he has a problem with woman with kids.
That couldn’t be farther from the truth – Jock has a horrendously painful past in which he lost his girlfriend and unborn child, his story is truly heart-breaking and you can see the connection that he has with Daphne has him in a quandary.
This story made me go an emotional roller-coaster ride that I have come to love from Melissa’s books – and I can’t wait to return to this Island in the next instalment.

In regards to the narrators of the audiobook, Jennifer Mack was fantastic. I smiled every time she adopted the high voice for Hadley, Daphne's daughter. I loved how she played all the characters, male or female, effortlessly. And Brian Pallino was also excellent, playing multiple characters so well and infusing emotion into these characters and their story. Overall, the narration elevated the story and I really loved both.
