Gorgeous!

I had read this one a while back in ebook format and loved it! Hl Day is a fantastic author and this story is so good! It had everything I look for in a romance...intrigue, strong main characters and a fast moving plot! This is a new narrator for me and wow, he did a crazy good job at bringing these characters to life! I look forward to listening to his work again! My only recommendation to the narrator is to be careful of his mouth sounds...his mouth sounds very dry and in need of hydration quite often and I find it distracting. Otherwise a lovely job!

Gay Beauty and the Beast

This was a audible and in many ways so true how we judge people from only the outside and never seeing the beauty. The story between Justin and Dean is story of growing together to learn from each other facing the world with their flaws and scars. Justin a military veteran with health and scars from a fire he was in while in Iran and Dean not sure how to describe him but I can say he loving and carrying but at the same time he has flaws about himself together they meet Dean as a male escort and Justin a customer. Justin with all the scars and health issues could not meet anyone who would overlook them and except him for who he was so he used the escort service and met Dean.
To tell anymore would mess up a beautiful love story I highly recommend this auibal book. The only flaw in the story was the narrator's voice used for Justin to me it did not do him fairly but the other voices was right on point.

unique

It's review time 🎧

Narrator score🎧 ; it's not a well known narrator for me. but I did loved his performance. the disguised voice he gave the character was very good. I liked it.

Level of steam🔥: it's a kind of a hot book. you have complicated relationships (no spoilers ofcourse) that is kinda rolling around s** so it's a hot story.

Level of anxiety and sadness0😱😢: I don't know if I will call this book sad or full of anxiety.... it's a unique story it will make you worry for the character but I didn't felt a big sadness ... more frustration

The book itself📖: the book it self is very good not that usual story that you can find everywhere.... each character brings something very different to the unusual relationship that is building in the story. I liked it and it was good.

compelling raw story I loved

Bu the end of the story my heart was so full of happiness and love for Dean and Justin that I could burst!!! Justin had been through h*ll and back, and I empathized with him and admired his strength and fortitude. Dean was a great anchor when it was all crumbling down around him. Compelling raw beautiful story. I loved it. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Love found in the dark amid whispers

Oh my juicy lord, this audiobook was so hot! Dean is a struggling actor, he hasn't made big yet and he has no money, so he uses his good looks and begins escorting on the side to pay the bills. He doesn't particularly like it but he knows it is necessary to pay the bills, so he is ready to say yes when he's offered double his rate. The catch is that he has to go to a house, enter a bedroom completely in the dark, take off his clothes, lie down, and the biggest rule is never touch his client. The secrecy of the process makes for an unsettling situation, especially when all he knows is his client's whispered instructions and his addictive magical touch. Dean becomes obsessed with his mysterious client, even after his circumstances improve, and things get even more complicated when he meets Justin, a genuinely nice guy that makes his heart pitter patter, a military hero who was tragically disfigured while on duty. While we only get Dean's point of view during the story, it serves to put the reader right into the intensity of his emotions, and the fact that a lot of the action happens in the dark, makes for a very heightened sensation while listening to the audiobook. There were times where I got goosebumps, listening to the mysterious client whisper instructions to Dean, it was very sexy! I really enjoyed the performer's voice, he made every character sound distinctive, and it made for a really hot listening experience. I would definitely recommend it!

Awesome Story

An awesome story that is fast-paced and wonderfully written. Dean and Justin are great together. I love how they meet, both times! I really enjoyed watching them grow closer and I love how Dean can see past the outside to who Justin really is. There is quite a twist to this story and it was great watching everything come together. The narrator was really good with all of the voices. I voluntarily reviewed a gifted copy of this audiobook.

Unusual, realistic, very good

This story drew me in from the first words, despite being recognizable in one way--not what you think. Whenever I want something real but not depressing (for too long), I opt for this story every time. It doesn't take you back and forth fifty times just to keep you engaged, the story is that good. Characters respond realistically. to the hands dealt them. And David Walker is perfect.

Also quite steamy in a new way. Even so, sex isn't the main focus,even after that opener. True growth of chacters.

Could not love this book more if I tried.

Absolutely love this story. I have over 500 audio books and this is the one I have to listen to at least every couple of months. It is at first mysterious yet sexy, becomes sweet and heart-warming, then of course a tad angsty(not for long, though) and then perfection happens. Oh, these men.

Good

I enjoyed this book it was good the characters was sweet I will listen to other books by this author

Great

I enjoyed this story so much. The storyline is interesting and intriguing with lots of problems that take time to work through but Dean and Justin work well together and make things work. I listened to this book on audible and enjoyed it very much the narration was good.
