About this listen

Harper Jones is a professional bike courier, and in his business if you don't ride fast, you don't make money. His apartment has mice, he's barely able to scrape up the rent, but at least he's living life on his terms and doesn't depend on anyone.

Sam Foster is the gay son of a wealthy conservative senator. He's noticed Harper before when he's dropped off packages at his dad's company, but he's never had the nerve to speak to his secret crush.

When Sam accidentally hits Harper with his car, Harper's bike is destroyed and he's injured seriously enough that he won't be delivering packages for a while. Sam decides Harper needs rescuing, and he moves in with Harper to take care of him.

Unfortunately, Sam's politician dad is convinced Harper's a con-artist and he'll do whatever it takes to get him away from his son. 

Contains mature themes.

I loved the tropes at play in this one, I've always been a sucker for the grumpy one slowly melting and opening up to the sunshine one in a pairing. It was solidly written with enjoyable narration. I'd recommend it heartily to anyone who enjoys a little sustained angst in their reluctant pampering fantasies.

cute story with heartwarming ending

Harper is exhausting and his anger and resentment towards Sam is ridiculous. So much on and on and back and forth drawn out dragging plot…made it through 4 hours but am giving up now. The best part of the book is the narrator who is consistently awesome every time, but even he can’t save it sadly.

So exhausting
