About this listen
When a professional relationship turns personal, it's impossible to resist the law of attraction.
Alec Rowland is a high-flying lawyer in a London firm, whose career is his life. He doesn't have time for relationships, and his sexuality is a closely guarded secret. After picking up a cute guy on a Friday night, Alec's world is rocked to its foundations when his one night stand shows up in the office on Monday morning - as the new temp on his team.
Ed Piper is desperate to prove himself in his new job. The last thing he needs is to be distracted by a crush on his boss. It's hard to ignore the attraction he feels, even though Alec's a difficult bastard to work for. Both men strive to maintain a professional relationship, but tempers fray, passions ignite, and soon they're both falling hard and fast.
If they're ever going to find a way to be together, Alec needs to be honest about who he really is, because Ed won't go back in the closet for anyone.

Charles Preston Carmichael is the most infuriating man I've ever met. I want to sock the golden boy of college hockey right in the mouth. He enjoys telling me everything I'm messing up—publicly. And since he's my roommate for the next year, I can't avoid him. Yet there's something about him that makes me watch him. Something dark. A secret I want to uncover. When he returns from a weekend away, broken and haunted, I can't keep my distance anymore. He needs someone, and I'll be damned if it's not me.

When they were at uni, Owen always had a bit of a crush on Nathan. But Nathan was apparently straight, and Owen was too busy with other guys to take his crush seriously. When Nathan moves back to Bristol after a year away, Owen hears that Nathan has come out of the closet, and he propositions him. Nathan doesn't want to be just another notch on Owen's bedpost, though, so he challenges Owen to prove he can be serious: five dates before they have sex.

Wells: The first thing I notice about Conor Newell when he sits down in my high-rise conference room is how delightfully nervous he is. Then I see his tie. The same geeky tie that’s held hostage on my phone. The one that belongs to my anonymous late-night texter. And it changes everything.

I have to stop replaying the one night I spent with my rival. Trouble is, that white-hot encounter with the other quarterback answered a lot of questions I’ve had about myself, but it also led me into this mess where he hates me. I never showed up for our second date. Since, well, life happened, and the worst part is he’ll never know how much that night meant to me.

Milo. Unusual. Quirky. Different. I’ve heard it all. I’ve accepted I’m not for everyone. When I find out I inherited a bookstore and apartment on a small East Coast island, I jump at the chance for a new life. Turns out I’ve also inherited a sexy, tattooed guy who not only rents the space next to my store but my apartment too. Gideon. I wasn’t looking for a roommate, but it’s not like I can stay at Milo’s place while he’s banished to a hotel. According to Milo, we’re bestie goals. And if he doesn’t wear pants at home, who am I to complain?

Once upon a time, the sexy, witty Brit was just that hot guy I met my first day in London. Then, it turned out we were sharing a flat. But living that close to the most charming man I’d ever met was one step away from falling in love with him. Newsflash–I fell. Hard and fast into a swoony, epic romance that felt like something out of a movie...

Love this story and great narration too!
Alec picks up Ed in a bar and the two have super hot sex but Alec is in the closet and gives Ed the brush off in the morning.
Neither man can forget the other, but are both shocked when they find out they are now boss/employee – at least temporarily.
They manage to keep their hands off one another for weeks – mostly because Ed is out and proud and never agrees to being a dirty little secret. The enforced abstinence has the effect of both making Ed a friend and allows him to also prove himself as an up and coming lawyer.
When the two finally get “forced” together on a business trip the sexual tension has to be relieved. It’s then that Alec finally admits he may have to make a life changing decision – risk his life, his family, his career or lose Ed forever.
**
Jay is just one of those writers who happens to put pen to paper and magic flows. This is another flawless, seamless story of two men who meet and though they are instantly attracted, slowly build up to a realistic friendship and then love.
The chemistry is amazing and the sexual tension is very well played. Though I thought Alec was a dick at first, we quickly find reasons to empathize with him. I give HUGE kudos to Ed who stuck by his guns and not ONE time did he agree to go back in the closet for Alec. That was awesome.
I really loved this and appreciated that the biggest issue in the story was not something external but a deep internal struggle, most of all.
Highly recommended to fans of Jay and to anyone looking for a good OFY story with interesting characters and a scorching chemistry.
Audio
Matthew Lloyd Davies does a lot of Jay’s books and he’s wonderful. He has a delightful accent and really did a great job with the emotion in this. The smexy times were extra emotional and he conveyed that effortlessly. I really feel deeply immersed in the story when I listen to his narrations. Highly Recommended.

Loved it!
Matthew Lloyd Davies is one of my favorite British narrators and he did a great job on this book. I had already previously read the book and given it 5 stars. I enjoyed the development of Ed and Alec's relationship. I loved how strong Ed was to hold to his convictions and was proud of how Alec was able to overcome his past in order to embrace his future with Ed. This was an overall wonderful book and audiobook and I recommend them both!

My new fave for a rainy day!
This books hits all my fluff and sap buttons. And I love it! Bossy and cheeky and low angst and hot sex! When you want a HEA, light listen, this is it. It's not an insta-love story but almost. Just enough angst to carry the story and thank gawd there is no "miscommunication" story line. (I am so over those!) There are no real surprises in this story, but I fell in love with Ed and Alec and their banter. After my 3rd listen, I bought the book.
For once we have a strong bottom who believes in himself and isn't willing to settle for less. And a strong top who needs someone to lean on. This has become my favorite rainy day read.
The narrator does a pretty good job. There were a couple of times I wasn't sure which character was speaking, but easy enough to figure out.
Any book that can make me laugh and get me hot is a winner for me.

Great story, horrible narration.
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
If the narrator did not sound so posh and nasally, I would have enjoyed the story more.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Law of Attraction?
Date night in Edinburgh.
What didn’t you like about Matthew Lloyd Davies’s performance?
His voice was nasally and he made the characters sound old and unsexy.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
The story was lovely, the narration was very frustrating.

Not interesting. Not cute.
The WORST thing about this story is the narrator. There's a Spanish character and I swear he makes her sound like a cheap vampire. It's horrible.
The story is just, super cliche. They both have lady best friends that know ALL their secrets whom they gush to and giggle with and-just shoot me. This was a struggle to finish. And don't get me started on spiders. From start to finish there was just nothing original about this.
The writing isn't bad, but since the author never takes us through anything lawyer-y I wonder why that career was chosen for the characters, except maybe for the title. It's just lazy writing.
Would not recommend. Frustrated I wasted money on it.
