About this listen

Heath

It’s a classic story: Boy meets girl, girl breaks boy’s heart, boy pretends to be gay to get back at girl, girl outs boy to everyone on Facebook…

Okay, maybe it’s not that classic. But it’s what happened to me.

When I bump into my cheating ex and catch sight of the moon-sized rock on her finger, there’s only one option to save face: pretend to be dating my gay best friend, Declan.

And when she outs me on Facebook and everyone I know sees it, there’s still only one option: keep pretending to be dating Declan.

And when Declan and I have to kiss to keep up the ruse and it turns out there’s actually a spark between us (more like a blazing inferno, if truth be told), there’s once again only one option…

Warning: This book is not appropriate for anyone who doesn’t like laughing, anyone who doesn’t like dogs, or anyone who doesn’t like hot men having a lot of sex…with each other.

Happily ever after included.

Just what I was looking for.

I enjoy Joel Leslie, though his New Yorker accent in this one was definitely a little inconsistent. Still, not enough to keep me from thoroughly enjoying the book, which was a fun combination of funny, smutty, and sweet.

Heath and Declan are Perfect Together!

This was such a fantastic story. It had heart, humor heat, and even had my eyes watering up at times. I absolutely loved the witty banter and friendship between Heath and Declan, and how that turned into passion and true love. I love a good fake boyfriend trope and this story did it so well. Also I can’t say enough about how great of a job Joel Leslie did narrating this and bringing the story to life. This is definitely a story I can see myself listening to more than once because it was just so entertaining all around. 5 stars across the board!!!

great performance, horrible story ending

The narrator was fantastic, the rating is nothing against the performance. I loved this and would have rated it 5 stars right up until 75% of the way through. SPOILERS AHEAD.

I prefer when authors give a heads up that main characters in a romance are going to kiss outside their relationship. If one partner views an action outside the relationship as cheating, and the other does it behind their back, yeah, that's cheating, even if it's only a kiss. Betrayals hurt, no matter the level of physicality, especially in a character that had already experienced a betrayal in previous relationship.

The author could have left it as a misunderstanding, but instead had Declan actually kiss his ex and ugh. That just ruined it for me. Especially with such a weak premise! Josh might be dying and will never get a kiss again so his ex, who is in a relationship, kisses him? Puhlease. It felt contrived, icky and then to rub salt in the wound, Heath's grandfather and everyone else in his life shaming him for being hurt?! Toxic and just AWFUL.

Heath had EVERY right to feel hurt because Declan DID lie to him, go behind his back, and kiss another guy. nothing excuses that. His loyalty should have been to Heath, not his ex. He could have told his ex I can't lie to my man about this but I won't give him specifics of your condition and also NO, I can't kiss you.

Author seriously needs to rethink the genre and HEA thing imo.

Book would have been perfect otherwise. Really fun family banter, loveable characters, etc, but totally ruined by the lying and victim shaming.
