About this listen

What’s better than one sexy protector? Two.

Hazel knows she’s in serious trouble when her shady uncle threatens to implicate her in his crimes. When two police officers show up at her apartment, she’s forced to flee Boston in the dead of night. Philadelphia feels like a big enough place to hide...until the seedy motel she’s staying in burns down.

Kayden and Aldo’s protector instincts rise to the surface after they spot a shivering redhead standing alone at the scene of a fire. Discovering everything she owned was destroyed, the sexy cop and charming firefighter offer her a place to stay.

None of them is able to resist their instant, scorching attraction to each other. The three give new meaning to the term “hot and heavy". Aldo and Kayden want more...hell, they want it all. But Hazel is in too deep, and as her lies begin to unravel, she’s caught between a rock and a hard place.

Especially when the past catches up to her. Unless she puts her fears aside and offers Aldo and Kayden the one thing she’s never given before—her trust—she stands to lose everything.

4.5 Stars - 2 Men Find Their Third

A sweet and compassion woman framed when a family of an elderly woman she cares for is missing expensive possessions. Coming from a family who live on the wrong side of the law she is threatened and runs from her home. Running out of money she finds a cheap motel and continues to have bD luck when the motel catches fire. Aahh but her luck changes when best friends and lovers (policeman and fireman) know shortly after meeting her she is the completion to their dream family
Part of a series, but can be read alone, secondary characters were the main focus of previous books
All characters to care and root for, the book and series have a great basis and the author does a great job setting up the threesome. An entertaining and sweet series with great narration.

Great Menage Romance! ❤️

I loved Kayden and Aldo, and loved them even more when they met mzel after the hotel she was in burned down and they thought she was the one to complete them.  She was on the run from some bad stuff that happened to her and didn’t tell them at first, even though she was falling for them.  I really loved their relationship and how sweet Kayden and Aldo are.  All their family and friends and even the haunted Inn are in this story.  It was a very sexy fun listen that you shouldn’t miss. You get a hint of the next story at the end of this one, and I can’t wait! 
The narration was done by Theo, Marina, and Oliver and really made the book great to listen to.

Definitely Hot and Heavy

This is an amazing addition to the series. Hazel, Kayden, and Aldo are fantastic characters that pulled me into their story from start to finish. Hazel has been through so much and Kayden aand Aldo were absolutely perfect for her. I loved the way their relationship developed. This story is sweet and steamy and beautifully written.

Theo Sinclair, Oliver Highpoint, and Marina Barrett are absolutely amazing. Their performance is excellent as they bring eac character to life. I love having the three narrators so each character gets their own voice.

A Winning Trifecta! Amazing Story & Listen🎧

I am loving this series and the world Mari Carr created, the stories are original with interesting storylines that are captivating from start to end. Each book in the series features different lead characters and while the story stands on its own, characters from the earlier books make appearances and knowing their backstory adds some depth, plus seeing them again is like seeing an old friend. This fifth book is Kayden Gallo, Aldo Moretti and Hazel Walsh’s story, and I absolutely adored these three characters. Hazel is a nurse who loves her job taking care of an elderly woman, but when things go missing from her patient’s home, her children accuse her of stealing, something she would never do. They fire her and threaten to call the police if she does not return the items. Then she finds out who was behind the thefts, her loser, ex-convict uncle, and she feels responsible. Paranoid she was going to take the fall for his crime she flees and ends up in Philadelphia, but her bad luck doesn’t end, there is a fire in the motel she was staying in and she not only loses all her belongings but her car too. A police officer was on the scene and she was hesitant to talk to him because she thinks they are after her, but he and his firefighter friend just wanted to help her. Kayden and Aldo are best friends, they were more to each other at one point, but both of them were too into women to be lovers. That does not mean they stopped hoping to find the perfect woman to make a perfect trouple. And they sense Hazel may be that woman, but they sense something is up with her and they have to be careful to not scare her away. I loved how everything played out in this book, the writing, plotting and world building is fantastic, as is the character growth and development. I thought it was great how helpful everyone was with Hazel and how they accepted her into their group of friends. Mari Carr, thank you for another fabulous and smoking hot romance novel. 

🎧📚🎧  And for the wonderful narration, Theo Sinclair, Marina Barrett and Oliver Highpoint were the perfect cast to bring these characters and story to life. They had a complete understanding of the characters they were portraying, giving each a voice that suited that character and was believable in every role they played. You could hear how much heart they put into their performance as they captured all the characters’ emotions and have you feeling every single one. They are entertaining storytellers and their narration enhances an already fabulous story to another level. Thank you for another amazing listen.

Hot & Heavy

okay, I actually loved this book. I love how fast they fell in love, and how hard the boys tried to win her love and trust. I also liked how she went out of her way to try and get the stolen stuff back. I can't wait for the next book. I'm curious about who's next to fall in love.

The chemistry was fab, especially the group scenes

In book 5 of this series of standalones, we finally get answers about Keeley’s brother and his best friend! I liked that Kayden and Aldo each had their Dom moments haha but they also worked well with Hazel and the group scenes 🔥🔥🔥.

I think for me one of the reason I held back giving it 5 stars was because the love was super instant. Like I like fated mates/instant attraction in paranormal romances but not a huge fan in contemporary just because to me (personal opinion) its unrealistic and people normally would do the things and feel the things they did in regards to Hazel so quickly. I will say I loved Hazel and thought she was so strong but liked seeing her lean on the guys and let her walls come down as the book progressed. I loved how all the ladies helped Hazel and showed them what friends could be. The guys had a tough time convincing her that she could accept these things and the things they wanted to shower her with, but eventually she let go (while still keeping her tenacity and feistiness and gave it as good as they gave haha).

I loved the integration of her into their family with Nono and Nona. I won’t give it away but it was adorable and made me get teary eyed when she accept the job, how they didnt even bat an eye and accepted her, how she helped the elders of this family so much. I enjoyed seeing the guys handle their professions with her and once things were found out they helped her handle her family and situation. I liked the reveals we were waiting for in some of the previous books (like Elio and Giana’s little bundle of joy). It made me want to go back and listen to the others ones again haha.

Narration was great in this one too! We get more repeats from the previous narrators and they all do a great job bringing these characters to life. I was confused a little if the guys had any accents because sometimes they would and sometimes they didnt. I also was a little frustrated with the cameos the accents and nuance of their performances didnt match the previous books. Because they are using a lot of the same narrators, that is one thing I would have checked and fixed, having another set of eyes check the continuity between the audiobooks would have been a big help. But still overall I would give the narration 4/5 stars and will continue to listen to the rest of these standalones.

Hot and Heavy

This is the fifth book in the Italian Stallion series. Aldo and Kayden finally realized that they want to find a woman to love together. They decided years ago that they loved each other but needed a woman to balance them out. Hazel left Boston to get away from her family and all there criminal affairs. Marina Barrett, Oliver Highpoint, and Theo Sinclair did a fantastic job narrating this book.
