About this listen

"A delicious mix of domination, submission, and suspense." ~ NY Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Nicole Edwards

Getting involved with your brothers’ friend and employee is never a good idea…

After relinquishing control to Jake Donovan for one night, Nick Sawyer wants more. Nick’s past as a Navy SEAL has made him a take charge kind of guy in every relationship he’s ever had, but now he finds himself craving to submit to Jake again. The problem is Jake’s determined that will never happen.

Thrown together to help a girl in danger, Nick starts breaking through Jake’s defenses. When things go awry, can Jake confront the ghosts of his past before they steal his future?

***The Trident Security series contains passionate romance, nail-biting suspense, and happily-ever-afters.

"A delicious mix of domination, submission, and suspense." (Nicole Edwards, New York Times and USA Today best-selling author)
All stars

A fan of Samantha a. Cole for some time, Topping the Alpha is possibly the one I have the biggest soft spot for. Hard to say "favourite" as I absolutely adore every one of her stories.

I'm always very wary of audio books. First of all there is the American accent which I am not used to...I read with a British accent 😉, and second there is always the chance the voice or performance (or both) will be annoying. this has happened to me a couple of times and it had ruined the story a little for me.

I can honestly, hand on heart, say that Sean Crisden does this story justice. He gives the characters life and doesn't just narrate the story. he clearly took the time to become familiar with the characters. I would not be in the least surprised if he had read the previous books in the series as well.

Very highly recommended!!!

Sean Crisden does Topping the Alpha justice!

MM, some BDSM, and a good story-line. Audio was just as good as the book. This was one of the first MM books I've read but have since read many and still come back to this one as a favorite. I want more Jake and Nick!

Excellent narrator, I've listened to other MM books he's narrated for and the author made a good choice with Sean Crisden.

This is a bit different from the usual M/M books I’ve read, there is usually an obvious Alpha and a blatant sub, this book is all about discovery for a male sub. Very enjoyable storyline with great characters and a brilliant narration.

Very enjoyable

I like to start by saying, the title is aptly named. Topping the Alpha, the fourth book in Trident Security is one of a hand full of MM romance books that I absolutely enjoyed. It's well-written, sweltering with engaging characters. The narration by Sean Crisden is superb; he portrayed the characters flawlessly. This was a fantastic listen one I strongly recommend. I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook, and my unbiased review is voluntarily given.

A great addition to the series!

I sometimes listen to M/M romance although it's not my first choice but I love this series and I did love Jake and Nick's story. Unfortunately, though, the next book in the series isn't out in audio yet so I guess I need to drag my Kindle out and read Marco's story. Sean Crisden has a really nice voice and did a great job bringing this story to life. I received this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Nick has always been seen as a Dom in the club but for some treason, he feels very submissive near Jake. Jake is all alpha and a strong one too. Nick will have a lot of barriers to break through to get his man he really wants. When they are thrown together to help a girl, Nick finds a way to break Jake. But what Jake does next shocked me. You will have to read it to find out!

Sean Crisden narrated this installment of the Trident series. He has an easy to listen to voice. His narration brought the characters to life. I felt as if I was a bystander within the story witnessing it happening through his narration. I enjoyed this narration.

an interesting twist

The story is always full stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook. I can't listen to an audiobook without knowing the book, that's not possible for me.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

as good as the ebook
