About this listen

Tyler Murphy was an LAPD detective, single and happy - until a near-fatal tragedy crippled his friend, fellow detective Eric Catalano. While Tyler supported Eric, he also became a shoulder for Eric's wife, Delaney, to lean on. But with one naughty suggestion from Eric, a drunken night with Delaney spilled into erotic abandon. Before it was over, Tyler saw his best friend's wife as a woman and yearned for more. When Eric struggled to deal with the aftermath, Delaney begged Tyler to leave.

Crushed, he fled to Louisiana, hoping to escape his longing for the one woman he could never have again...and unaware of what he'd left behind. After two years of living with regret, Tyler finds Delaney on his doorstep, her husband having abandoned her long ago. She's protecting a shocking secret and desperately needs refuge from a stalker determined to see her dead.

As they fight to stay alive and catch the killer, they struggle to resolve the guilt of their past pleasures. But they can't deny that what was once a spark is now a flame burning out of control. To possess Delaney - body and soul - Tyler must heal her pain and thwart the evil that's a mere breath behind her.

Mine to Hold

Oh finally this is the kind of story I was remembering from this series.

I love Tyler and Delaney, the fact that Eric Delaney’s ex-husband in a way set all this into motion.
I kind of love that Tyler is this big ladies’ man but all it takes the look and love from one women to change him. He was mush I mean MUSH when he found out he was a father. I loved it.

Great story line, the suspense and action I loved it. Add in the Erotic romance elements and this was what I loved about this series.
Great narration she didn’t make her whinny which I appreciate.

Loved

I loved this story I was so happy for Tyler. This story had it all great sex scenes and a lot of action. I was touched when the story about Del and Tyler started and how she had his baby. This is one of my favorites in this series

One of the better if the series

intersting storyline (but still basic damsel in distress/secret baby).

At least in this one Tyler was possessive but didn't really bully and while Del was a bit peevish she wasn't a whiny broken record.

Glad the series seems to be getting better.

MY FAVORITE!!!!

Okay so I loved Tyler, he was great! With so many surprises for him and so much he really made a lot of concessions throughout the plot line. Some of the story line was somewhat predictable or at least I'd guessed a bit of it, but so good. I enjoyed this one so much! Shayla Black is an excellent author and her stories are so good. I've enjoyed this series over all though this book is my fav...I think :) Can't wait to hear Xander's book next. He is an interesting character. Delany is a strong and independent woman, I hate weak women and this series is full of great ladies. Delany is strong and honorable. Her internal struggles were understandable with everything she'd gone through. I enjoyed the cameos form the previous characters and listened to this story with rapped attention.

Lexi Maynard is a great narrator, she is able to really keep the voices distinct and seems to change them in each book for the character she is portraying. I enjoyed listening to her bring those voices back with the previous people too.

Finally, Tyler!

Another damsel in distress seeks protection from a smokin'-hot, big, strong alpha male. Was that a complaint? No, not at all. While all of the books in this series are HOT and steamy, this one is a little tamer in some ways. This one is not about how the woman needs to either change her perceptions and accept that her man must have her his way or hit the highway, and I liked that it was more of an emotion-driven book with great sex than a sex-driven book with some emotions thrown in as accessories. Not that those types of books don't have their time and place, but I guess I was more in the mood for this one right now.

I have been waiting for Tyler to have a HEA since Delicious. When his old "friend," Delaney, shows up on his front door with some heavy personal drama and in imminent danger, Tyler mans up and deals. They have a short period of time to get over their past hurts and trust each other in order to survive the mess Delaney has found herself in. Their connection is still there, and that leads them down the right road, mostly. I was interested in the interactions with the couples from the previous books and the foreshadowing of the next one which I will automatically put in the cart.

Again, this is a great series. It's very well-written, and Lexi Maynard is fast becoming one of my favorites to listen to.

So Good.

I was looking forward to Tyler's story. You many of the couple from past books join in this book to help Tyler so you get a good little update on some of the couples. There was a lot more action in this book but it still had the steamy scenes you have come to love from Shayla Black. Totally worth the credit.

FINALLY! Tyler's story!

What did you love best about Mine to Hold?

I knew we'd eventually get to Tyler's story. He so deserved a happily ever after. His devotion to Alyssa makes so much sense now!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Mine to Hold?

When Tyler sees his son for the first time and instantly knows...and loves...his child. So unexpected and awesome for him.

What about Lexi Maynard’s performance did you like?

I appreciate her ability to read the sex scenes and dirty talk without letting the narration part get breathy and high pitched like she's the one having sex. Some narrators just go overboard and make it hard to listen to at all. Lexi does a good job at keeping it real without sounding like porn, or being too clinical.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Tyler puts his son to sleep via Skype by singing to him. So sweet.

Great crime drama and romance

Part of a series. Can be read as a standalone, but better to read in order.

Engaging, well-rounded characters. Multi-layered crime story with suspense, danger, and twists and turns. Passionate romance.

My steaminess rating: Sizzling. Intense sexy times. Graphic scenes. Some kink.

Narrator was good.
