Title: TRY
Author: Ella Frank
Genre: M/M Erotic Romance
Release Date: November 12, 2013
Series: Temptation #1
Synopsis:
Try
– verb: to make an attempt or effort to do something or in this case…someone.
Sex. Logan Mitchell loves it, and ever since he
realized his raw sexual appeal at a young age, he has had no problem using it
to his advantage. Men and women alike fall into his bed—after all, Logan is not
one to discriminate. He lives by one motto—if something interests you, why not
just take a chance and try?
And he wants to try Tate Morrison.
Just coming out of a four-year marriage with an
ex-wife from hell, a relationship is the last thing on Tate’s mind. He’s
starting fresh and trying to get back on his feet with a new job at an upscale
bar in downtown Chicago.
The only problem is, Tate has caught the
unwavering and unwelcome attention of Mr. Logan Mitchell – a regular at the bar
and a man who always gets what he wants.
Night after night Tate fends off the persistent
advances of the undeniably charismatic man, but after an explosive moment in
the bar, all bets are off as he finds his body stirring with a different desire
than his mind.
As arrogance, stubbornness and sexual tension
sizzles between the two, it threatens to change the very course of their lives.
Logan doesn’t do relationships. Tate doesn’t do
men. But what would happen if they both just gave in and…tried?
My Review:
This book hooked me in from the very first
page. Having had a taste of Logan in
Edible I was more than happy to have some more!
Logan is a sexy smart-mouthed asshole that you cannot help but
love. He is quick-witted and charming
and oh so very determined to get his way!
Logan is instantly taken by Tate and aggressively
pursues him. There were times in this
book I expected Tate to punch Logan’s lights out for his crude and forceful
ways. In fact, even I wanted to! Tate does put
up a good fight though and makes Logan work very hard. And that’s no surprise as he has never had an
interest in men before now.
I love Logan and his dirty mouth though I have
to say I love Tate even more! He is sexy and sweet, humorous and cheeky. I
connected with Tate probably more than, I think, I have ever connected with a
male character before. I felt his
hesitation and confusion, his worries and insecurities.
Tate’s battle is a huge one. Being attracted to Logan goes against
everything he has ever believed in.
“Cause
I can’t stop wanting you and you’re a GUY.
I don’t like guys. Ugh, I don’t
understand
why I’m… shit… no one I know will understand.”
There is no need to imagine just how hard a
time Tate is having, as reading this book I felt
what he was going through, it was very realistic. I am a huge fan of Ella’s writing. She has a way of weaving a slow burn between
her characters that builds into a massive explosion of heat leaving you
reeling. I have read and enjoyed a few
different ‘male on male’ sex scenes in the past but this is the first time I’ve
read a full novel dedicated to it. I am
so glad that Ms. Frank was the one to pop that cherry!
It’s surprising that this book is Ella’s first ‘try’
at M/M erotica because she goes at it like a pro (pun intended)! The descriptions of what each character feels
both physically and emotionally, really connected me to the moment. What I found interesting in this was the aggressiveness
between the two. How quick they were to
say ‘fuck you’ and turn on one another.
And also how sexually driven they were - totally unafraid to say what they
wanted in the heat of the moment.
“Now,
stick your tongue in my mouth and feel me.”
“You’re
one sexy motherfucker when you’re turned-on, you know that?”
“So
are you.”
The story was told with a sense of humour also…
“What
do I need to get you into my bed?” Logan
asked boldly.
Tate
couldn’t help the laugh escaping his mouth at Logan’s directness. “A vagina?”
Having not read the genre before it surprised me just how
much of a turn on it was. The sexual
tension is off the charts, and the power of two sexy alpha males together was
insanely HOT! I’d go as far as to say
that this book contains some of the HOTTEST, EXPLOSIVE sex scenes I have ever
read! Though it wasn’t just about sex,
there really is a fantastic, romantic story here too.
I honestly could not find fault with this book
and am giving it FIVE SEXY-HOT STARS! I cannot wait for more of Tate and Logan’s story in book two, TAKE.
“You’d
be surprised at what I might do when asked to try.”

Excerpt:
Logan stroked
his slippery palm up Tate’s engorged length, watching his face go from sexual
torment to one of pure, unadulterated lust while his hips moved, driving his
cock through Logan’s fist.
“Open your
eyes,” Logan demanded as he continued to pump his hand up and down.
Tate’s brown
eyes opened, catching on his, and Logan could tell that he’d finally let go of
all thoughts and was just feeling in
this moment.
“Good?”
“Fuck yes,”
Tate rasped, right before he cupped Logan’s face and tackled him backward onto
the bed.
