Publisher's summary

"Don’t trust anyone!" Nick takes the warning to heart - after all, it was left by a dead man. After Joshua King's investigation into the manipulated batch of birth control led to his murder, Nick’s worried he could be next. His unexpected pregnancy is proof enough of the faulty medicine.

Nick has resorted to hiding away, both in shame and fear for himself and his unborn child. But when Harper King shows up asking about his brother’s final hours, Nick realizes there might be someone he can trust with his story...and his heart. He can protect the frightened omega.

Harper King has questions, and the answers aren’t adding up. The police aren’t focusing on his brother’s murder, and no one wants to talk about the defective medication wreaking havoc on omegas across the country. Nick was the last person to see his brother alive and could be the key to solving the case. But it will take gentle coaxing to get the omega to talk.

The more time Harper spends with Nick and his unborn child, the more he finds a kindred spirit, and the idea of letting Nick put himself at risk is enough to make all of Harper’s alpha instincts roar to the surface. Harper is a born protector, but digging into Joshua’s death while falling in love with Nick isn’t safe or easy.

Love or justice, truth or lies, Harper and Nick will need to wade through the manipulations, even as their hearts and lives hang in the balance.

LOVE

Love love love this audio... The King brothers are a Hit... The death of there younger brother is just the start. Harper meets a friend of his dead brother, Nick, who was part of a story he was working on when he was murdered... the twists and turns they go thru to find the killer. Plus Nick is pregnant due to the tampered birth control pills which are the center of story they were working on. Well I can wait till the next King brothers story comes out.

Another Great Start To A New Series.

This story will capture you from the first chapter, and will keep you fixated until the end. Adian B is another one of my favorite MM/Alpha, Omega/authors. He's extremely blessed with this ability to write, create interesting characters, and his storylines. Tyler Darby did a wonderful job with his narration of these characters. I never had to try and dispher which character was who. (Which I loved).I look forward in purchasing and listening to this complete series. If your looking to start listening, and becoming invested in a new series, start here👇🏼I have.😊

Great story, excellent narration

Was definitely hooked immediately when listening. Bates’ writing keeps you interested and Tyler Darby’s narration brings the characters and story to another level. Can’t get enough of his voice

I loved this book!

This is an amazing story, with a thrilling storyline, full of suspense and action. And I'm so happy this will be a long arc...
Don't get me wrong, I'm dying to know what will come next, but I enjoy long, complex arcs that go through various books, And the story we have here deserves to be told without rushing it. A big conspiracy to 'put omegas on their place', manipulated birth control pills and a huge cover-up... I hope we'll have a big bunch of books dealing with all of these for a good while :P

The characters are great, all of them. But my favourite is Nick who is brave (the kind of brave that will do what's right no matter how scared he is), independent, competent and caring. Although Harper is a close second, TBH.

The romance was really nice, too. It began as lust (they blamed to the pregnancy's hormones!), but it slowly evolved to something different, deeper. Harper's protectiveness of both, Nick and his baby, is beautiful, and I love that they are both very mature when it comes to Nick's pregnancy ♥

Tyler Darby narration was simply fantastic. His emotional range is perfect, and all the voices are pleasant and easily identifiable. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because there was some editing problems.

Conspiracy

I loved this story. Nick and Carter are racing to find who killed Carter's brother Josh. They get to close and things get hot fast.
I'm anxious to read the next book.

wonderful listen

Heated Manipulations is the first book in the Kings Of Fort Greene series by Aiden Bates. Thrilling, captivating, entertaining - this story is an interesting read with great characters who you care about and a well written storyline.

Harper and Nick come together to solve a mystery and find so much more. Danger lurks, their attraction burns and the secrets wait to be unveiled. I really liked these two together and can not wait for more books in this series.

Narration is by Tyler Darby. Clear recording and great voicework that brings the characters to life. A very entertaining performance.

Nick and Harper's adventure to love

Harper's brother is killed while investigating a case of bad omega birth control pills. Nick is one of the affected omegas and was helping Harper's brother with the his investigation. The two are brought together by Harper's brother's death. The story line has twists and turns that keep your attention and not to mention all the hot sex. Tyler Darby did a fantastic job with narration. Can't say enough good things about this audio book. Looking forward to book two.

conspiracy

It started out so sadly, that I was hoping for a positive ending! And, I got a positive ending that I liked, and that's why I read. The conspiracy of people in power really enraged me. I hated the way most alphas treated omegas- walking wombs to be used. Seeing red. Nick and Harper were great together, and I loved their story. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this story and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job with voices and expressions.
