Strung by Victoria Ashley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Micah Beck is tempting, talented and addictive to the last drop.
* * *
Not to mention, he’s completely confident in all that he does. Especially with those fingers and I can’t deny that it’s such a turn on.
* * *
Micah is the last thing I expect to find wandering around my brother’s beach house, naked, only wearing an acoustic guitar, but he’s the first thing that has ever had me craving for just one ‘anything goes’ night.
* * *
My plan was to come visit my brother for the summer and hopefully find a little inspiration for my book at my brother’s bar on the beach.
* * *
A little inspiration is more than what I get slapped with.
Talk about wanting to make love to a voice. I never knew exactly what that meant until I heard Micah playing at Vortex, but now just the thought of anything that has to do with that man’s tongue, leaves my whole body vibrating with a hunger I’m not sure I can fight.
* * *
Just one taste. One night. No strings.
I’m a liar if I said I thought that would be possible because if I thought his guitar playing abilities were hot, seeing him in charge, demanding orders at Vortex has me completely coming undone and about ready to fall at his feet and give him anything he desires, despite the fact that my brother warned us to stay away from each other.
* * *
He’s a master at getting whatever he wants with little or no effort at all and I can’t help but to hope he wants me.
* * *
Micah is cocky with a body that screams trouble with every rock-hard muscle.
He’s wrong in every way and…
I’m completely strung.
Strung
Oh brother!

Character development: 😳🤬😏
The heroine: Teagan – a 21 year old author writing her second steamy romance novel. Teagan leaves her parents home to go stay with her brother Alexander in California. Alexander owns a bar on the beach where all the men that work there have to go shirtless. Teagan plans to take it easy and get in some good writing time at the beach.
The Hero(s): Micah – best friend of Alexander and manager of the bar. He often stays at his best friend’s home rather than at his own, though I didn’t really understand why. He plays guitar and sings at the bar once a week but he plans to open his own bar where everyone wears shirts and music is the focus.
The Story: Teagan arrives at her brother’s house to find Micah in a compromising position. Though Micah could care less. He is the kind of guy who has no problem with the ladies and takes full advantage, but never goes back for more with any one woman. Though he is interested in Teagan from the start. Possibly because she wasn’t falling all over him like most women.
I loved the narration. Joe Arden was perfect for this character. He conveyed the Irreverent attitude that Micah seemed known for. He has a nice voice and I enjoyed it. The story started strong, but I guess I don’t read many brother’s best friend books for a reason and this one reminded me why. There is just too much angst about what the brother will feel and not enough about what they are feeling.
