About this listen

I, Taylor Hough, am a painfully average guy.

I have a soul-destroying corporate job, I iron my underpants, and I was unceremoniously dumped for an influencer hippie a few years ago. Every day feels the same, and I don't know how much longer I can cope before I do something unhinged like rip off my shirt in the middle of my co-worker's office birthday party and smear lemon cake all over my chest.

Then, a case of mistaken identity suddenly lands me in the middle of a covert professional wrestling league, which is apparently being run in the basement of my office building. Weird. Even weirder are the wrestlers. They seem…otherworldly. So does the rest of the staff. And the audience. Pretty much everyone except boring old me.

And then there's the owner, Holt Hector, with whom I have an extremely embarrassing first encounter. He's ridiculously attractive, even in the inhuman cosplay get-up he's wearing that only makes him hotter if I'm being totally honest.

Then, I discover it's not a costume. And that the show put on by Goliaths of Wrestling every night is a more monstrous reality than mind-blowing special effects.

My previously boring life is suddenly no longer quite so average, and hot-as-hell Holt is inexplicably as interested in me and my ironed underpants as I am in him and his strange new world.

This is my number one comfort reads when I want a feel good romance that I wish I had. Taylor and Holt are just adorable together. The way Holt is such a green flag boyfriend makes me really wish I could have someone like him in my life. The humor in this book still makes me laugh out loud even after reading it over 20 times. I love this series so much!!!!

Feel good romance

When I heard Lily Mayne was writing a new series, I was excited but also apprehensive because I am not a wrestling fan, but I knew if anyone could make me enjoy it it would be her.

From the very beginning, I was hooked to Taylor and Holt’s story and the Goliaths of Wrestling. Taylor is an average 39 year old man who has just realized how much he hates his job and his life. His ex turned him into a corporate employee and then left him and he just never got out of that routine. I really felt for Taylor because it is so easy to fall into a routine and realize months or years later you hate how your life has turned out. Watching Taylor break out of his routine with Holt and find what actually makes him happy again was really wonderful to see.

“You’re perfect for me, Taylor Hough.”

Holt is an empyn, which means he can absorb other people’s emotions, and is the boss of the Goliaths of Wrestling. Holt was a boisterous guy with a love of vibrant colors. He was just a great guy and a great boss. Holt and Taylor’s relationship was wonderful. I really enjoyed how it started as a mistaken identity that led to strong friendship and relationship. Their relationship was sweet, sexy, kinky, and hilarious at times. Also I really enjoyed watching Holt try to hide that they were paranormals.

On top of the wonderful relationship, Mayne did a wonderful job with all the side characters. The wrestlers were all so much fun and I loved their wrestling personas. It was just all so well thought out that it made it fun to read about wrestling, which is saying something for me because I have read during a wrestling match before. Also, Mayne did a great job with thinking up merch for these characters too because the merch is referenced frequently and it all sounded amazing and fit the characters perfectly, which made this even more believable and fun to read.

Overall, this was an unexpected delight. I really enjoyed Taylor and Holt’s relationship and all the ball talking that happened within it. I can’t believe I am excited to read more books about wrestling but I am now.

Loved these two so much

This is a really sweet fun story with engaging characters. The narration is awesome. But there’s no conflict mystery or drama really. So if you just want a sweet love story this is a great listen.

Sweet fun story

Love this story!! So unique, which makes it that much more exciting to listen to/read. Michael F. was amazing again as well. Great plot, SUPER steamy spice, and low-angst. Perfect!

Great opener for a new series from Lily Mayne!
