Product Description:
I had everything a woman could want…
My husband, James. The house on the lake.
My life. Our perfect life.
And then Alex came to visit.
The first time I saw my husband's best friend, I didn't like him. Didn't like how James changed when he was around, didn't like how his penetrating eyes followed me everywhere.
But that didn't stop me from wanting him. And, surprisingly, James didn't seem to mind.
It was meant to be fun. Something the three of us shared for those hot summer weeks Alex stayed with us. Nobody was supposed to fall in or out of love. I didn't need another man, not even one who oozed sex like honey and knew all the secrets I didn't know, the secrets my husband hadn't shared. After all, we had a perfect life.
And I loved my husband.
But I wasn't the only one.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Neither Erotic Nor Romantic
I would have been happy with one of the above. As it is, "Tempted" left me stone cold. Sure, there were graphic sex scenes but they just weren't, well, sexy. Overall, the novel was disappointing. I don't know if it was due to Anne's first-person account which was unflinchingly blunt and straightforward to the point where I just didn't feel emotion from her and therefore, didn't care about her and those around her. Maybe it was because the love triangle just didn't interest me because the men ... Read More
Rating:  - Realistic but still a little disappointing
I loved the characterization of the main players, especially Anne, although I felt that her rationalisations and emotions were like a yo-yo. My main bugbear is that because it is written from Anne's point of view, we never really get to know the boys very well. I am not sure why they were best friends now (altho Alex explains how it was in the beginning). I wish Hart explored their relationship a bit further, especially James, who seemed to be attracted to Alex but who also had a take it or leave ... Read More
Rating: - Lackluster
Soooo disappointing! I kept waiting for the climax of this book and it never came. It just went along at a steady predictable pace and then really fizzled out in the last quarter of the book. I gave her two star's only because I liked the books cover!
Rating:  - Warning! Have boxes of tissue nearby! **SPOILER ALERT**
I chose to add my 2 cents because none of the other reviews I read warned about the not-so-happy ending. Don't get me wrong, I neither expect nor want a false positive from Megan Hart. Leave it to her to give us a most plausible story, even when it's heartbreaker. Had I known, though, I would have held off reading TEMPTED a couple more weeks so I could go right into her fourth novel. I'm assuming #4 will give us a resolution to not only Alex's broken heart, but show us what we have to take on ... Read More
Rating: - Real.
This novel is real, eloquent, and tasteful. It's not what you would expect at all, and that makes it completely beautiful. The characters are interesting, especially Alex. Alex may be the most desirable and captivating male character that I've read about in a while.
The ending is more "real" than "happy," and that may disappoint some of you that go into this with sunshiney expectations. However, in my opinion, if you really pay attention and catch the gist of the story you'll realize that it's ... Read More
