Story
For as long as I can remember, Easton Crews has been off-limits. As much as it kills me, that’s never going to change. After his little disappearing act three years ago, then suddenly showing up out of nowhere, I shouldn't want anything to do with him. It doesn’t matter how beautiful he still is. Or how close we once were. It shouldn’t matter that my entire body lights on fire with need whenever he gets close. He chose the worst possible time to leave without so much as a goodbye.

Story
Whispers of the Locke brothers fill the town, facts and reality twisted to fit what these motherf--kers believe they know about us. That we’re sadistic bastards, incapable of any real emotions or fear. Maybe they’re not wrong about that. That is, until I set my sights on Kadence King, getting just as drawn to her as I am the darkness. It’s the first time I’ve felt anything in a long time. But would she really be scared knowing the depth, the lengths I go with my brothers to make any f--ker who crosses us pay?

Story
Broken down, and wounded by my emotionally neglectful ex, I wanted someone to tell me I was good enough. Then, I stumbled into a new job with a boss who brought me to my knees - literally. He has me do things a real secretary would never do. Emerson Grant tells me I’m more than just good enough. I’m worthy of his praise. There are a million reasons why I should stay away. The owner of the Salacious Players’ Club is not just my new boss - he’s twice my age. And my ex-boyfriend’s father....I’m a good girl, but I’m falling for the wrong man.

Story
Eight years.... That's how long it's been since my brother's been gone, and not a day goes by that it doesn't kill me, knowing that I'll never see Adric again. It's been a rough journey, one I've barely survived, but with the help of my childhood friend Kade Haze, I'm finally learning to piece what remains back together. Or so I thought.... Just when life is beginning to make sense again and a feeling of normalcy is on the horizon, my carefully constructed walls come crashing down.

Story
She belongs to my brother.... I’ve stood back for years watching Dax repeatedly screw things up with Kennedy, as if he doesn’t think anyone could ever swoop in and steal her away. Breakup after breakup, they always end up back together, even though I’ve always had a thing for her. I’m tired of waiting. He had his chance. I want mine. When Dixie’s Alibi - her Grandmother’s bar - needs a new cook for the food truck, I jump at the opportunity, despite the fact that Kennedy Ward hates me. At least, she pretends she does. We both know she secretly wants me and always has.

Micah Beck 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. Micah 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.

I need medicine to escape this reality - the pills, cocaine, and liquor aren't even enough to numb the pain of my past. Years without Jax destroyed me - ruined me forever - and being back in his life will only ruin him the same. I never meant to find him again, and I sure as hell never meant to want him just as much as I did before we were ripped apart. It doesn't matter that I need to stay away from him. Jax refuses to let me go. My biggest fear is destroying the only person I've ever been capable of loving, but he's not giving me any other choice....

Hockey star Max Yearwood was everything I needed at the time - fun, sexy, up for anything, and only around for a few months, since he’d signed with a new team 3,000 miles away. Max proposed we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn’t get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right? Though, you know what they say about the best-laid plans.

Am I friends with JP Cane? Ha! That's laughable. Besides the fact that he’s adopted some far-fetched notion from the movie When Harry Met Sally that says men and women can't be friends and work together, it’s safe to say we're not friends. He's annoyingly loud, obnoxiously handsome, and has made an art out of poking all my hot buttons...multiple times a day. So you can imagine how disgruntled I am when I not only have to fly to San Francisco with him for work, but stay in the same penthouse. Yup, we're sharing the same air, 24-7. We're talking full-fledged working roommates.

I can’t give you any more advice on landing this other guy, can’t tell you another “sexy” thing that you should do, or suggest a new set of filthy words that you should text him late at night. As your best friend, I’ve reached my limit, and I can honestly say that he doesn’t deserve you. I’m not saying all of this because I’m f--king jealous, or because he had the audacity to say that he makes more money than me.

Could have been really good

Publisher's Summary
Tempting, inked, and highly addictive. Alex is all that and more....
I've made a lot of mistakes - ones I'm not proud of, and definitely ones that have left their marks both mentally and physically.
Things got lonely; I got lost in my own f--ked up mind and in the end it left me f--ked out of my mind and unable to fight - or at least win. That life's over for me and I've moved on.
Six months into tattooing at Blue's and already I'm the most wanted and sought-out tattooist. My biggest clientele consists of women. They come into the shop, end up in my bed, and we both come out happy. It's been my release since I've stopped fighting. It's become part of the "new" me. But when Tripp reappears in my life, I can't deny the fact that I would do anything for that girl.
So when she asks me to move in with her and her "boyfriend" - our other childhood friend - I never expected for things to get so f--ked up and twisted that I would find myself only more attracted to her by each passing second or wanting to protect her from everything that isn't me.
I have worked so hard over the years to suppress my feelings for her but when I find out that her and Lucas have been having an open relationship, I have the strong urge to rip his heart straight from his chest - to destroy the very thing that keeps him breathing.
What I didn't expect was for Lucas to ask what he did. For him to ask me to do the one thing I have secretly longed for since I was old enough to know what the need was. The second thing I never expected was the look of need that I saw in Tripp's eyes when he asked.
One night of free passion could change our lives forever. I never said that was a good thing either....
Contains mature themes.

This is a Firecracker
Loved this audible. Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell told Alex and Tripps story well. Loved their voices, they were believable for the background of this story and their voices were great to listen to. I found myself swept away listening to them. I love all things Victoria Ashley so I knew I would love the story which I did. This is book 2 in the Pain Series and we get to learn Alex Carters story, Memphis's little brother from Get Off On The Pain, which is also fantastic. Alex and Tripp have been best friends for practically their entire lives and they love each other. What they find is they are also "In Love" with each other and both are afraid of losing their friendship so they choose to keep their feelings to themselves. Life has other plans for these two though. I highly recommend this audible book. Great story and narrated well.

A love for the Ages
Something for the Pain is a beautiful love story. Don’t let some of the reviews or the description scare you, this is a love story for the ages. A bit of kink? Yes. Naughty, you bet! Deep, riveting and complex? Absolutely. I don’t do spoilers so let me just say that once you get into the story, you realize why Lucas (Tripp’s boyfriend) asks what he does of Alex, and the risk he took in asking. I have to say, I fell hard for Alex and Tripp. He is her everything and she is his. We should all have a love like theirs. This one checked off all the boxes for me and yes, it made me ugly cry. Well written with all the feels and fantastic narration, I’m glad I bought it and I will definitely listen again.

More than friends
When besties, since little kids - Tripp (h) & Alex (H), have been holding back their true feelings for well over a decade, you know when they finally get together it's going to be hot, intense, and sexy AF! This one def delivers. There is a ton of pent up tension between these "friends" and a lot of innuendoes as they have no boundaries because of the security in their friendship. This story starts at a slow simmer but quickly turns to high heat. 🥵 Phew. It's hot in here.
Here's the kicker: Tripp is in an open relationship and begs Alex to move in with her & her boyfriend, Lucas.
Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell are a great duo and bring all the heat when telling this story.

The only way to describe this story is that is hot, hot, hot. Anything that Joe Arden narrates is an instant download for me. Maxine Mitchell is wonderful, per the usual. Looking for steamy scenes, a love story and a HEA, this book is for you.

didn't connect with story
I can't fault the narration - it's excellent. I just didn't connect with the story. Lots of repetition (good lord the excessive bottom lip biting). The main characters were just immature in many ways and I couldn't get into the alcohol sex party scene or the a**hole not-boyfriend or the reason Alex and Tripp were finally pushed together.

A Tug-a-war of emotions
This story is a friends to lovers/lovers triangle romance which I really enjoyed overall.
Keen to find out what was going to happen next with these fun and flirty characters, I had this audio version playing at every moment no one else was within earshot (I couldn't find my earphones!) I also really liked the side characters with their teasing banter, flirtatiousness and patient support for both Tripp and Alex in their quest for love
BUT...
This love story was draaaaaaaawn out
I found Alex's backstory slightly vague, especially whole itches ith his dad and brother and what happened between them.
The fact that Tripp and Alex are bff's, claim to have NO secrets and have their desires handed to them on a silver platter, nb0 www
