Story
I was supposed to be partying with a bunch of celebrities in paradise this week, okay? But then, I made one teeny, tiny error in judgement before leaving New York. Now, I find myself shacked up with my fake boyfriend Beale Goodman, Whispering Key’s most adorable, most enormous, most virginal cinnamon roll - a guy who rescues feral cats, believes in soulmates, and talks about happiness like it’s free for the taking. A guy who nearly convinces me, with every smile and kiss, that it is.

Story
A night on the town after a long workweek at my family's distillery should include shots and dancing - not a hot kiss with a handsome stranger. I'm straight. At least, that's what I figured until I find myself locking lips with a sexy city boy. Now, all my circuits are going haywire, and the spark that ignites between us makes me even more curious. Unfortunately, I kissed the one man who's off-limits: Cohen Mitchell - the sole surviving heir to the Mitchell Creek distillery, a rival neighbor my family has feuded with for nearly a 100 years.

Story
His dad was the town troublemaker, and I was the son of a cop. We couldn't have been more different, yet we were best friends, had each other's backs, and kept each other's secrets. "What you are, I am," we always said. Then one night irrevocably changed our lives forever. It's 10 years before I see Gage again, and instantly I can tell he's not the same boy I fell in love with. We're both haunted and hardened by the memory of that night - of everything we did and saw.

"Look out for Zach, and don't hit on him." My brother's request sounds easy enough. Keep an eye out for his best friend on campus and keep my hands to myself. Easy. Even if Zach is a quintessential nerd, who I've always thought was cute, I don't have the time to think with my...stick. There's only one stick I should be focused on this year, and that's my hockey stick. My goal once I graduate is to get an NHL contract. The last thing I need is a distraction. On or off the ice. Only, keeping to the rules is harder than I thought it would be.

Unfortunately, that ship sailed when I was a teenager, even though Chase Hawthorne always treated me like nothing more than a younger sibling. Things were worse after my parents died. Chase was sweet and supportive, which only strengthened my feelings for him. But then he'd act like I couldn't take care of myself, and that part didn't go over well with me. Yeah, I had a habit of screwing up.

He promised to never leave me. But when I needed him the most, that was exactly what he did. Wilderness guide Xander Reed has spent fifteen years trying to forget the night he turned to his best friend in his darkest hour, only to find the young man who'd sworn to always have his back was turning his on Xander instead. Two thousand miles and fifteen years of building a new life in the quiet backcountry of the Rocky Mountains should have been enough to put the memory of Bennett Crawford out of his mind.

Publisher's Summary
Why can't I forget your kiss....
Dear Quinn,
Why must I have these feelings for you? You're my ex-stepbrother, and nothing will change that truth, no matter how many letters I write.
I never expected to see you again - or to rescue you from the side of the road in a blizzard. I didn't think you would ever like me, much less kiss me in a steaming hot tub on a snowy night. It seems we make better lovers than brothers, which is all kinds of naughty and nice while we're snowed in together.
But can this new intimacy last when the skies clear and my family finally arrives for the holidays, or are we just two guys in a mountain cabin with a great view of everything we want but can't have?
Hopelessly yours,
Jonas

He really brought the characters to life and made this all the more enjoyable to listen to.
Quinn and Jonas's love story was epic and quite a journey.
The writing style was engaging and easy to read as well as engaging.

Amazing listen!
Jonas and Quinn are so sweet! I love this ex- stepbrothers with secret crushes, second chance and forced proximity storyline. This is such a perfect Christmas story that I just love. I love seeing these grow as characters and in their relationship. Just such a sweet and heartwarming story. Then Darcy Stark does such an amazing job with the narration and may me love this story even more. I absolutely love this one.

Naughty&Nice
Thank you for the ACX audio, I voluntarily give this book an honest review. Then, One Christmas tree kiss and The feeling Jonas has are far from brotherly. Now, Jonas is need of this holiday break more than he knew only the guy he never thought to see again was now stranded in the cabin with him due to the early snowstorm. Something is going on ..Quinn is hiding out but from what or whom?
Quinn is determined to prove he can adult without a hero coming to his recuse.. Only Can he start to live again or has the past worn him to far down? Jonas started looking for hookup the lever breaks. but years has passed. they both can only think of that one and only Christmas tree kiss. Feeling are starting that a far from brotherly..Can Quinn do casual for Jonas? I just love the melody of Darcy Stark voice as he read for these wonderfully boys..great job.

I was given a free audio copy from the author and Neon Rainbow Arc Team to review.
#mm #forcedproximity #HEA #Christmas
The 2 MCs are college students but even though they are young it didn't have a YA feel. The writing is like any other mature couple which I appreciated.
It has a 2nd chance feel to it. They had one kiss years ago and then they never spoke of it for years even though they both still had it bad for each other. I love this trope and this did not disappoint.
It also has that slight taboo/off limits feel. At the time of the first kiss they were step brothers living together. Now their parents are divorced but still stay in touch so there's that secretcy and wondering what will they think. It added a little suspense/slight drama/slight angst to the story. Though it's still a very low angst read.
It is a holiday book in the sense that they are on Xmas break from school and there's a Christmas tree but it's a low key Christmas book. So even though this is releasing in Jan and some like myself may be over Xmas, you would still ver much enjoy this. It's just that melt your heart sweetness that is perfect regardless of the time. For the most part the story focuses on the 2 MCs thinking they are going to a family gathering only to end up being stuck in a cabin just the 2 of them for a week due to a blizzard and all that comes along with being stuck alone with the one you secretly still love.
Both characters were so sweet. I loved them both and they had great chemistry together. This is a story I couldn't stop listening to. I loved the plot. It drew me in from start to finish. It's light, heartwarmingly sweet with some low heat. Great writing. I loved it and would definitely recommend the story.
As for the narration, for me it was just ok. 3.5 stars. His voice was pleasant enough and kept good pace. His tone/age suited the fact that the characters are college students. What I didn't like was that the voices weren't noticeablly different. Also, he definitely wasn't monotone but he didn't express the emotions as well as other narrators I've heard before.
Note: There is also a freebie called Going the Distance and it's great too. A little extra about these 2 guys on Prolific Works.

Naughty and Nice is a sweet, sexy, low angst holiday novella that I really enjoyed.
After years on not seeing each other Quinn and Jonas cross paths again. Old unresolved feelings resurface.
No longer step brothers can they act on these feelings?
The chemistry is undeniable between these two.
I loved this little bit naughty with a hefty dash of nice romance!
Darcy Stark does a great job narrating this story!

Heartwarming opposites-attract story.
This was just the perfect, heartwarming feel-good story I needed.
Quinn has gone through a lot and, as a result, has a tendency to keep others at arm’s length. He has people who are ready to love him, like Jonas, like his (ex) stepfather … but he is unwilling to let them in or believe in their sincerity. My heart ached for him, both for his loss and his low self-esteem. Jonas was such a nice surprise in this story. He’s been carrying a torch for Quinn for so long, and now he finally gets his chance. He is incredibly easy to like, and I loved how he uses humor as armor of sorts and how considerate and caring he is. Ken is a sweetheart too. He’s one of those secondary characters that really makes an impression. I want him to have a HEA too.
There are several funny moments and sly jokes that made this into an entertaining read as well as a sweetly romantic one. Holiday cheer and second chances are a great match. Loved this.
Narration: Darcy Stark has a soothing, warm voice which is very pleasant to listen to. I liked the different voices he did and the nuanced emotions he brought to his performance.
