Historia
At 40, Lan Davis is looking for his damned picket fence and two point five kids. What he doesn't expect is instead of a wife in the picture, his mind keeps conjuring up images of two men. One, his partner in the force, who is as straight as they came, the other an ex, who he'd hurt but never forgot. After an incident leaves Lan injured, the two men rally around him...only maybe they shouldn't have. It seems a medicated Lan is a truthful one.

I have to be honest…
Revisado: 01-28-25
I was really enjoying the title—the writer spins a great yarn—until the point when one of the lead characters was on a plane and a flight attendant is described as “offering” herself up to him. The story devolved and became increasingly incredulous from that point on. The “unconventional” relationship which ensued we could see coming from a mile away; it was unbelievable, improbable and too simplistically written. I stuck around to the end because I was invested by that point but I was largely disengaged and just looking for it to end by the final third. A disappointment for a story that started out so strong. Sorry. It was just not at all convincing to me. The narrators, especially the master Leslie, saved the day again.

Historia
I thought I'd be okay when Caspian Hart left. He was a brilliant, beautiful billionaire with a past he couldn't escape. And I was...just me: an ordinary man lost in his own life. It would never have lasted. It should never have happened. Not outside a fairytale. And I am okay. I've got my job, my family, my friends, and everything Caspian taught me. Except it turns out he's going to marry his ex-boyfriend. A man who doesn't understand him. A man who almost broke him. And I've finally realized it's not enough for me to be happy. I need Caspian to be happy, too.

Familiar tropes
Revisado: 12-12-24
Alexis Hall is an amazing craftsperson, able to imbue their characters with depth, grace, vulnerability and realness. The entire series was expertly written with much passion and intelligence. Hall often stuns with the seemingly endless well of their skill, their humour and their attention to detail. But, frankly, the subject matter of pain/pleasure through punishment and kink was not all that appealing to me, and it’s a preference I neither understand nor am particularly aroused by, either. And the now familiar trope of the billionaire swooping in to save the poor student—only to have the student end up saving the billionaire right back—has been done so many times that It’s become tedious. And Hall deftly nods to Pretty Woman in a not so subtle acknowledgment of this. Expertly written, yes, and engaging and skillful, it just wasn’t my cup of tea at the end of day. Leslie, as narrator, saves the day, of course, as he ALWAYS does. And thank G-d for him.

Historia
If my life was a movie, I would be the sidekick. Not an especially promising start when my plan is to finally let my best friend know I have a crush on him. I just need a complete makeover. Change everything about myself so that when Falcon returns from his summer vacation, he can finally see I'm the love of his life. If I knew what I was doing, I wouldn't look like every nerd cliche wrapped into one awkward package. In short, I'm screwed. But then Law Anderson enters the picture.

Historia
The 1960 baseball season is shaping up to be the worst year of Eddie O’Leary’s life. He can’t manage to hit the ball, his new teammates hate him, he’s living out of a suitcase, and he’s homesick. When the team’s owner orders him to give a bunch of interviews to some snobby reporter, he’s ready to call it quits. He can barely manage to behave himself for the length of a game, let alone an entire season. But he’s already on thin ice, so he has no choice but to agree.

My Gawd….
Revisado: 10-03-24
…can Cat Sebastian write or what? A near perfect slow burn of a wonderful, all-enthralling love affair. So expertly written (and read by the ever impressive Joel Leslie) that the 11 hours was over faaaaar to quickly. They truly are the dynamic duo of audiobooks. Fantastic queer romance; Eddie and Mark are almost as captivating as Andy and Nick were. The ending was particularly satisfying. I hadn’t realized I had been holding my breath the entire time. Loved it. 9.85/10

Historia
Nick Russo has worked his way from a rough Brooklyn neighborhood to a reporting job at one of the city’s biggest newspapers. But the late 1950s are a hostile time for gay men, and Nick knows that he can’t let anyone into his life. He just never counted on meeting someone as impossible to say no to as Andy. Andy Fleming’s newspaper-tycoon father wants him to take over the family business. Andy, though, has no intention of running the paper. He’s barely able to run his life.

But no matter what, through kidnappings, car chases, and cooking mishaps, Felix knows that as long as Lane is by his side, they will find a way to set things right.

The Thing Is…
Revisado: 08-05-24
…nothing much happens in this series of books, so if you’re expecting a whole bunch of suspense and dramatic tension, then maybe this series isn’t for you. What they may lack in edge of your seat suspense, they more than make up for in crisp, witty dialogue, glorious flirtation and laugh out loud antics. Really enjoyed the slow and steady pace of getting to know Lane and Felix, How they have adjusted to each other and how their love for one another ultimately knows no bounds. It was a great series. And, as usual, it’s John Leslie’s world. We’re just allowed to visit.

Revisado: 07-18-24
…could not be any more different as personalities go, but I guess opposites really do attract. I’ve enjoyed getting to know them a bit and look forward to their next adventure together, which is already in queue. I get the feeling there is a lot of backstory there yet to experience. Joel Leslie is utterly fantastic, as usual. Performance here is top notch, with him demonstrating some of his best acting, ever. So vibrant and compelling. He’s really that good. 😊 5/5 on this narrator. 4/5 on the story, for me.

Historia
When an elderly couple is found dead in their own home, Chevy and Seneca are pulled into the case. But what's unusual is that it appears neither of them were killed; instead, they simply stopped existing. Even with Chevy's ability to go into the memories of the victims, he's unable to tell what happened to the seemingly normal couple. That is, until it happens again. This time, the victims are found alive, all of them kneeling and staring at a blank wall as if hypnotized by it. It's up to Chevy and Seneca to figure out what is drawing these people and who might be manipulating them.

Historia
Seneca is the complete package. He's smart, sexy, and confident, much to Chevy's annoyance. They've worked with each other for two years, and even though Chevy might secretly find his partner charming and attractive, playful harassment is all they have. Chevy was born with a unique gift that allows him to go into the memories of others. As detective, he uses this ability to find peace for victims who have been hurt or attacked. But neither Chevy nor Seneca are prepared when they are asked to go into the mind of a serial killer in hopes of finding survivors.

Seneca ❤️ Chevy; Chevy ❤️ Seneca
Revisado: 06-28-24
What a wonderful and funny read. Even in the face of danger, our protagonists crack jokes, lifting the mood and giving us a chance to breathe; to feel safe. Lovely, witty (and constant) banter as the boys discover each other in this world and the unconscious one is highly entertaining. Lots and lots and lots of fun. Loved it.

A fitting sequel to the 1st tome and I enjoyed seeing Lawson and Jack find their ever-after. NR Walker never disappoints. Just enough sex to keep your interest and a whole bunch of opposites-attract fun.
