Summary
Past indiscretion with life-altering effects. Macy Spencer hit rock bottom and clawed her way out of the hole her cheating, lying, gambling ex-husband left her in. Drowning in debt and penniless, the single mother of two worked hard to get her life back on track and protect her children from the fallout. But now her ex is in more debt, and his bookie’s knocking on her door for payment. The last thing she needs is the handsome, rough, sexy-as-all-get-out Alec Hall overhearing the threats - but he does - and now he’s making it his mission to protect her and her children. Whether she wants it or not.
Former Navy SEAL Alec Hall’s world has come to a screeching halt. With a newborn daughter dropped on his doorstep and fatherhood looming, he doesn’t have a moment of free time to spare. But when Alec finds out the woman who runs his daughter’s daycare is in danger, he can’t stay away. The sadness in Macy’s pretty eyes is unmistakable - it calls to him, making all of his protective instincts roar to life. He vows to do whatever necessary to protect Macy and her children. Too bad Macy wants nothing to do with him.A battle is warring in Alec’s head.
Can he let go of his guilt, embrace his new role, and be the hero Macy needs? The odds are stacked against them and now more than ever Alec needs a miracle.

Amazing Story & Narration🎧 Riveting & Heartfelt!
Riley Edwards pens another brilliant novel set in her “Gemini Group”, I am loving this series and the amazing characters and storylines she created. She makes it so easy to fall in love with these characters, has you completely engrossed in their stories, rooting for them and their love interests from start to end. Each book in the series features a different member of the Gemini Group as the lead character, though the other members of the group do crossover into each other’s books, and with every book I have new favorite characters and for this book it is Alec Hall and Macy Spencer. Alec, a former Navy Seal, and a newly single dad of an adorable baby girl, with help from his team and their women he is holding his own though he does not have a minute to spare. When he sees the woman who runs his daughter’s daycare in trouble he is all in and there is something about that her draws him to her and he vows to do what he can to protect her. Macy Spencer got out of a bad marriage with the clothes on her back and the two most precious gifts in her life, her son and daughter. Despite barely making ends meet she would not have changed her past because if she did she would not have her children. Her ex-husband has been a thorn in her side since the divorce but they share custody so she has to play nice despite him trying to turn their children against her. But here son Caleb is too smart and sees what he is doing, he took it upon himself to protect his little sister too. And when her ex brings trouble to her door, Alec jumps in to help, she does not want his help but he reminds her how the situation appears in the eyes of her children. Macy does not want to let anyone in to her life or near her heart ever again, but Alec does not give up on her and his daughter just steals her heart. But she continues to push him away and then the situation with her husband and the trouble he is in causes trouble for her he jumps back in and does things his way. This story not only captivated my attention the entire time but it tugged on my heartstrings too. It is a wonderfully plotted story with plenty of drama, angst, action, thrilling suspense, mystery, heartfelt emotions and romance. Riley Edwards, thank you for another amazing story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧 And for the amazing narration, Erin Mallon and Joe Arden exceptional performance continues, they have a complete understanding of the characters they are portraying, giving each a voice that suits that character’s persona and are believable in every role they play. Their character voices have been consistent throughout the series and the quality of the audio is top-notch. These entertaining storytellers are versatile voice artists and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another amazing listen.

Alec and Macy
I loved every moment in this journey. Alec and his surprise baby as well as Macy's children pulled me in! The narrator's performance was amazing as always but hearing Joe Arden's children's voices always makes my heart warm. Rileys writing brought the world to life just as it has with the rest of the series! Love love love!

Swoony hero, relatable characters, great narration
My favorite thing about a romance book is how it reels me in emotionally. This book had my emotions in a vice grip. the MCs were both relatable, though Alec was more likeable. We probably all know a Macy in rl, the emotional turmoil and insecurities from all she went through was palpable. At times I wanted to shake some sense into her. But Alec was up to the challenge and he was the personification of hero. He was strong, swoony, sexy, dirty talking, alpha protective. What more could you want? I enjoyed the narration a lot because these are two of my absolute favorite narrators. What threw me off at the beginning was that for Macy's chapters, we got a 1st person POV but when it was Alec's chapters, it was done in 3rd person POV. It was a little annoying at first but I got used to it after a few chapters and the narrators sold me on the story. Excellent delivery.

Enjoyable Listen
I have really enjoyed the Gemini Series! These men and their friendship are like none other. I love their connection and brotherhood of supporting each other through the good and the bad.
Both the h and the H are single parents with pasts that have not been kind to them. Alec unexpectedly learns he has a daughter and is her sole guardian while Macy has been through a horrible marriage and messy divorce. Her ex, Doug, is still around and causing issues for Macy. Alec was 100% all in once he decided he wanted more with Macy and was the type of alpha that pushes his way into her life. There were a lot of emotions throughout their journey but I really liked how it focused more on their relationship vs the romance. Another great read in the Gemini Series and definitely one I would recommend.
Audiobook narrated by Erin Mallon and Joe Arden - both are exceptional narrators and they did not disappoint with this narration.

Macy and Alec
There’s so much going on in this book it is crazy. Alec finds out that his one nighter ends up him being a father. But because the woman he met, he did not know her real name she was determined not to let him know about her a.k.a. his daughter, but Bad accident made Fate step in. Now Jocelyn, his daughter is now attending a daycare. Macy is the manager of this daycare. The problem is is that her ex-husband keeps coming back. This is action packed. There are things that happen to Macy and her family that Alec is privy to an exposed to. So him and the Gemini team are on the case! All the guys have their better halves are in the process of helping Macy And Alec. Definitely no cliffhanger. But there is another Gemini member who has his number up to meet his match.
By the way, great audiobook. Performers were the same as the previous books in the series to make it so consistent.

Alec & Macy
Every one of these Gemini Group series books is fabulous! I am loving a binge listen to each one! Alec's story is so good. Maybe it's because I love romantic suspense. Or it could be the way Alec is with Macy. Or the fact that he is amazing with children and is swoony when it comes to his daughter. Or it could be the entire team who always is there, having the back of each of the "family"! Yes, it is a culmination of all these things wrapped up into an amazing story. Macy is beginning to settle down, struggling to stay afloat, and keep her kids fed and housed. Her abusive ex is a gambler, and he has a problem letting her go. After all, she is a source he can tap for additional funds. At least that is what his loan sharks think. Alec is taken with Macy. She is amazing with his baby, Jocelyne's care and there is something that draws him to her. Now in danger, he is staking his claim, not only of her but of her kids too. But is it too late? Will he keep his family safe? Give this a listen. The action is nonstop and the chemistry hot! Loved this story!
Joe Arden and Erin Mallon continue their fabulous narration of this series. I love that they keep the same voices for characters from book to book and make us, the listener feel like we are part of their community! A wonderful, exciting performance.

Passionate
Alec is the kind of hero we can all love - commitment phobic turned committed father and now ready for the whole package.
Macey is the kind of mother we all hope we are.
Being one of Riley's books however means that we are treated to some violent disturbances to the arc of the story.
Macey and Alec are portrayed in great detail in this story. Macey's dilemmas and decisions felt so real and Alec's obvious smouldering, and later, blazing passion for her was wonderful to see. I also felt the portrayal of the children was really good, they were pretty hard not to fall in love with.
Overall I found this book really enjoyable.

Joe and Erin knock the narration out of the park as usual.

Alec & Macy
I’m so in love with this series. All these super protective men that fought for their country meet their perfect matches and find they cannot live without them by their side. Alec and Macy’s story was so good I listened to it in one sitting. It’s a long book and work did not get done today but there’s always tomorrow to catch up. :)
Joe Arden and Erin Mallon really bring the characters to life

It’s like picking your favourite child…
And as much as I’d never admit it, Alec is my soft spot.
I adore this book and the audiobook is just as good if not better.
Once again Joe Arden and Erin Mallon bring to life the characters with such passion (quite literally on a couple of occasions - I’ll never look at my washing machine the same again that’s for sure!!)
Both characters see each other as they really are but neither can see themselves in the same way, such self recrimination and the narrators do so well to make that feel so real. The love they have for each other, their respective “teams” and the children is at the heart of this story as is the concept of family. Alec as a father slays me, he is the definition of the perfect daddy and I love that for Jocelyn, Aurora and Caleb, as well as Macy’s bond with Jocelyn which is super sweet.
Alec’s determination to not let Macy hide and bring out the woman she was, not the one her ex taught her to be was powerfully written and narrated.
Stand out scenes were the washer (obvs!), the drive by and the mirror scene which almost brought tears to my eyes.
Another winner and onwards to Chasin we go…as I recall this one does have rather an interesting start with the characters getting wet in more than one way from the get go 🫣🤣.

I voluntarily listened to this audiobook in exchange for a review. Already for books into the Gemini-series and it is getting better and better. Alec and Macy are meant to be together. I really loved listening to those narrators. They have it down quite good.
