Daniel Mulligan is tough, snarky, and tattooed, hiding his self-consciousness behind sarcasm. Daniel has never fit in - not at home in Philadelphia with his auto mechanic father and brothers, and not at school where his Ivy League classmates looked down on him. Now, Daniel's relieved to have a job at a small college in Holiday, Northern Michigan, but he's a city boy through and through, and it's clear that this small town is one more place he won't fit in.

Rex Vale clings to routine to keep loneliness at bay: honing his muscular body, perfecting his recipes, and making custom furniture. Rex has lived in Holiday for years, but his shyness and imposing size have kept him from connecting with people.

When the two men meet, their chemistry is explosive, but Rex fears Daniel will be another in a long line of people to leave him, and Daniel has learned that letting anyone in can be a fatal weakness. Just as they begin to break down the walls keeping them apart, Daniel is called home to Philadelphia, where he discovers a secret that changes the way he understands everything.

The characters were presented authentically with their flaws and could relate to their struggles and their feelings.
And the narrator was awesome!!

One of the best gay novels I've read and an excellent recording. Highly recommended.

Enchanting.

Previously read and enjoyed the ebook and liked it on audio almost as much. While it was wonderful overall, the narration fell a bit short for me. There were odd pauses halfway through sentences, or between sentences that relate to each other, that separated what should be related points. It pulled me out of the story a bit. I’m editing my review on relistening to the ebook and I’m noticing the pauses even more. Even so, I’m still enjoying it and will probably listen again at some point. The story and characters are very sweet together, exactly what each other need, and their chemistry is hot.

Hot and sweet

No drugs, no heavy sex scenes. This story is about real people exploring their emotions, sexual attractions and eventual love whilst living normal lives with all its ups and downs.

A cute gay romance novel

I am not one to give five stars easily.
There is a good balance of all the ingredients needed to make a romantic novel and it would be mean of me to pick at this book's faults. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
I read it with audible, which was also very enjoyable. Seldom, in my experience, has a reader's voice matched so well with my image of the main character. The reader is not technically perfect, just right.
