Tempt My Heart was such an amazing story! It is definitely a 5 star read..if I could give it more than five I would in a heartbeat. Ladies get your tissues out and ready because your going to need them! I literally cried for the first 30% of the book and some points it was an ugly sobbing crying. I absolutely love a book that can bring this kind of emotion out in me. Honestly it may be fiction but damn if it didn't feel like I was living the story. I have to say the funeral scene was probably one of the most outrageously amazing scenes I have read in a book in a very long time. This is not a spoiler you will find out just by reading the synopsis that Cane dies and even though you know its coming man oh man you will still feel like your heart has been ripped out! This story will take you from sobbing and emotional to sweltering hot panty melting sex. Yes ladies you are in for a quite a ride with this story and I personally wouldn't want it any other way. This is not the first book that I read by Danielle and it most definitely won't be the last. Just FYI I still love Kayden Knox from her Savannah series.. if you haven't read that one either you most definitely need to get it now as well! This story is told in dual POV's of Jordon and Brittan. It does eventually give you and HEA so yes I am thankful for that.
Brittan grew up with music as her passion and she never thought she would make it to the big show but she was determined to get there and with her soul mate and love of her life Cane by her side nothing would stop her. When Cane enlists in the military after 911 her dreams are flushed down the toilet. They were supposed to go to college together.. get married.. have an amazing rock star career.. have kids.. ya know how it should be... but when tragedy strikes will Brittan be able to pick up her pieces of her life??
No one can make me feel what Cane did. No one can make my heart come back to life. It withered and died eight years ago today, and since then it's felt like there's nothing there, but a hollow hole in my chest where my heart used to be.--Brittan
She becomes a different person but realizes Cane would want her to chase her dream even if he isn't there for her physically. She gets the job of her dreams as a rock star.. but even though her dreams have come true her life will spiral again and she will turn to drugs/alcohol/mindless sex anything to block out the internal battle of heart break. When her label makes her go to rehab and get her life together will she finally be able to get her pieces of her life back that she has been missing for years... maybe possibly love again? Can someone honestly have 2 soul mates in a life time?
What happens when she meets Jordon a fellow rock star that is on tour with her ...can he make her feel again... or is it just for a good time?
I can feel Jordon behind me and its causing my entire body to flush, as the alcohol mixing with my hunger for him consumes my body. My head is telling me to leave the club alone, but my vagina is screaming at me to let it have a go with that very nice sized cock he has tucked away in his jeans that was teasing me on the dance floor.-- Brittan
Jordon is a musician starting out in the rock star world and yes he is a play boy and he always gets what he wants. He is finally going on tour with an amazing band, and it helps that there lead singer is one of the hottest females he has ever laid eyes on.... when he finds himself in a night club celebrating the news of joining the tour with this amazing band he will find himself getting more than he bargained for.
I slide up behind her, thankful no other asshole has swooped in to dance with her. Now, I just hope she ain't no fucking paper bag chick. You know the ones; hot ass body, with a 'make you want to throw a paper bag over her face because she so fucking ugly.'
I'ts Brittan-fucking Mckenna.
I know her whole no fraternizing with the guys she works with rule, so I pray to God she doesn't recognize me because right now, I am definitely putting 'banging Brittan' at the top of my, who to do list for this evening.-- Jordon
When things between the two start to steam up can either one of them hold back? Can they resist eachother? Or is this just another way for Brittan to block out her memories and loose herself in the moment. Or can Jordon Tempt her Heart?
Oh yeah, baby. You may think you're the Queen of Cock Tease, but I'm the King of Pussy and before this tour is over, I'll have you wrapped around my cock again, begging me to never stop. -- Jordon
You all have got to pick up this book.. Thank you Danielle Jamie for another amazing story and I look forward to soooo much more in the future!
You will need multiple boxes of tissues to read Danielle Jamie's book Tempt My Heart to wipe away the tears of sadness, grief, heartache and joy that are written so eloquently, you can actually feel them in your soul through each page that you turn. Even through my ugly crying while reading this book, it was without a doubt a 5 star read for me and I would urge everyone to one-click this amazing story immediately.
"How does one accept the fact that she has to live the rest of her life without her soul mate?"
Brittan was a girl who had it all, she met the love of her life at 16 years old on the beach on Fourth Of July while watching the annual fireworks display. Although a few years older, Cane was everything that you could want in a guy, kind, caring, atheltic, & ambitious. They fell in love and made plans for the future, which included attending the University of Miami together, graduating and starting a family. Genuinely happy to be in each other's company, Brittan and Cane were the picture perfect couple. Brittan thought her life was perfect, until that fateful September day when a terrorist attack on New York changed the world forever. Cane abandoned every plan that they had made together a few years later in order to do what he thought was his calling, to serve his country in the war on terror. Although Brittan was saddened that they wouldn't be together in college and that she would have to go months without having Cane by her side, she supported his decision and waited patiently until he came home from boot camp. Together again, Brittan seemed to be back on track with Cane home from his training, that is until his first deployment overseas. Being the strong woman in love that she was, she worked to survive his year away from her and was rewarded by Cane's love when he proposed to her in one of the most romantic scenes I have read in a long time, on the very spot where they first met with the most perfect ring. Brittan had everything she had ever dreamed of. Until Cane was deployed a second time. Focusing on her studies and singing with a new band, she patiently waited for Cane to return from Iraq. And then the unthinkable happens, Brittan comes home with her best friend Roxie to find two military officers standing at her front door. Deep down she knew why they were there, her entire world collapsed around her and there was nothing she could do to stop it. Brittan struggled to move on from losing Cane forever, but she was spiraling into a sea of grief and heartache, until she decided to follow Cane's wishes and her dream of becoming a famous singer.
"My mother keeps telling me we all have a time to go. We may not understand it all, but God always has a plan. We just need to wait, and the reasons why will come to us at some point. We just need to be patient."
Her band Beyond Redemption was famous, with number one hits on the charts and platinum records, however Brittan had hit rock bottom, when the pain of Cane became to much and her addiction to cocaine became too much to control and she almost overdosed. After a stint in rehab, she is determined to make Cane proud, and do well on her new tour so that everyone will know that she can overcome the demons that haunt her. And then she meets Jordan, the guitarist of the band that is opening for her on tour. The pull that she feels for Jordan is something she hasn't experienced since Cane, not once with any of the numerous one night stands she has had over the years. The guilt she usually feels after sex because she believes she is cheating on Cane isn't there after she sleeps with Jordan and she doesn't know how to deal with it. The attraction that they are both trying so hard to deny, comes to a head when Jordan tells her he is staying with her on her tour bus to ensure that the slip back to cocaine one night doesn't happen again. And so their relationship begins. What was meant to be casual eventually turns into anything but, and I was holding my breath,hoping that Brittan could let go of the love that she had for Cane to make room in her heart for someone else. Letting go of Cane, doesn't mean that she had to stop loving him, she just needed to realize that she could actually have two soul mates in her lifetime. When she finally gives in and decides to try, the love that they have for each other only grows with time, and the way that they support each other through anything, brings tears of happiness to the readers eyes. Brittan deserved to be happy and Jordan was perfect for her. To see the life that Brittan makes for herself in the future brought happy tears to my eyes, because her story came full circle and she realized who she was without Cane, that she was strong, talented, and deserved to love and be loved again. You NEED to read this book!!!
"I can't help but thank Cane each and every day we have had together for bringing you into my life. Without his ultimate sacrifice for our country, our lives would've crossed paths. So for that I'm grateful to him, and I'm grateful to you for showing me what the meaning of true love is. I feel it every time you walk into a room, or when you grace my lips with a sweet kiss. My love for you sees no end."
As tears begin to fall again, I laugh nervously, “Who are you and what did you do with the cocky asshole I met in Miami? He was easier to hate.”
A killer grin spreads across Jordon’s face, as his eyes twinkle in the lights above us. They are hypnotizing and causing me to fall deeper under his spell, “Ahh, so you admit my irresistible rock god looks and my magic fingers are winning you over?”
The thought of what those fingers have done to me sends a shiver of desire coursing through my body and stopping between my thighs, only to intensify.
He teasingly slides his fingers ever so slowly down my arm, causing goose bumps to blanket every inch of me.
Trying to act like he isn’t getting to me, I toss my head back and purse my lips, “I never said that…I just said I don’t hate you as much as I did a few weeks ago.”
Pinning me on my back, Jordon stares down at me with a glimmer of desire in his eyes that takes my breath away. His lips curl up into a cocky grin, “Oh, baby. There’s no denying it, you like me. I can see it in those gorgeous brown eyes of yours.” Leaning down he presses a soft kiss to the tip of my nose causing me to suck in a sharp breath of air. Pulling back he watches me, as he waits for me to try and deny it some more.
He gets a rise out of our back and forth bantering, but I’m going to surprise him by admitting what he already knows to be true. He deserves a little ego boost after the fantastic day he’s given me.
“Okay…maybe a little.” I say breathlessly, as my chest rises and falls at a rapid pace. I melt under Jordon’s intense gaze.
“Holy shit! She finally admits it! She likes me!” Jordon shouts, shooting up and raising his hands in the air.
