gay-shaming MM?

very good narrators.
the story and plot is good, but the gay-shaming, sexism and youthful writing style is a bit of putting.

gay-shaming
eg: "my person" - drew not liking labels.
or: "choosen" sexuality
or: being proud that her husband is not a homophob - would you be proud that he is not a racist nor pedophile?

sexism
eg: "so girly"
or : be a pussy"
or: how she describe all the manly men.

youthful
eg: "literally..."
or: "hells yeer"
or: the lack of human knowledge
or: all the constant unnecessary descriptions of how they style their hair or what they wear.


this said, the book is still far superior to the first book in the hash tag series.

This Will #Rev You Up

An outstanding mainstream m/m new adult romance. Read book one first and then this finishes their HEA. Both books are with the same narrator who does a great job differentiating between the men. So great - love the whole gang in the hashtag and gearshark series.

The only weird thing was the bucket list quotes at the beginning of each chapter. Each other book made sense how she started a chapter. This one, not so much.

#Trew is EVERYTHING

I have read and re read and re read this book and I love it more each and every time. The relationship, love and trust between Trent and Drew is EVERYTHING and they make my heart so happy. At this point they might as well be real people for how much i care about these fictional characters.

I enjoy listening to this book in audio, but that is primarily because that was how I first read the books. There are some moments where I don't love the narration and performance, the performance feels stilted and forced, but I still think the audio brings another level to this story and is work listening to.

Masculine Love

Cambria Hebert's 2nd in the Gearshark Series "#REV" is a winner in every way. It's no wonder this LGBT-Lite /Sports saga is so popular with her Female Fans. The romantic adventures of Trent and Drew are lushly narrated but with a masculine sensibility that is very satisfying. Highly recommended for her many fans and lovers of invincible true romance. Well plotted and we'll structured. This is becoming a " must listen" series.

great ending

loved the ending to the story of Trent and Drew. can't wait to see where the secondary characters.find their HEA and Joey is at the top of my list

Love. Friendship. Family.

This book picks up from where it left off in book 1. The first few scenes are difficult to listen/read. It's a pet peeve of mine when one of the MCs goes off and be self sacrificing. Thank the lord, Drew didn't fall for it,

The journey towards the conclusion of Drew and Trent's lovestory isn't paved smoothly, but I'm so glad the two of them hang on to each other and their chosen families support them both.

I love this one way more that the first book.

Give it a go! It's a fun listen. =)

Good story. Good narration.

The first book was full of emotional tension which didn't drop off in this book. Trent and Drew work their way through the perils of being in an unconventional relationship.

I liked the first, but...

I LOVED the second. This one was all about the feels, and I fell in love with both men and their bravery. People can only hope to find a love like that. Great narration, too!

AFun Read -

The two books are a fun read. The two main characters were very well developed. You got to know them, feel the angst and the tension building between them. The racing is a cool bonus.


Loved Luke Itzvic's narration. Guy was a little strained.

Lifestyle choice

This story and writing overall isn’t terrible - not great either. There’s some toxic masculinity from the MCs that’s unnecessary. But this author really needs to NOT refer to sexuality as a “lifestyle choice”. Good narration.
