About this listen

Simon: One perfect night with Hollywood superstar Luke Watson. It’s a dream most people would give anything to make real. For me, it’s a reality I’d give anything to make just a dream.

Six years ago, he was just the gorgeous stranger across the room. That elusive one-night stand who can electrify you with a touch; whose kisses are all you can taste for days afterward.

Until I tried the phone number he’d left and got dead air. Then he was just that jerk who’d played me. And himself. Because I never could shake that feeling that we could’ve had something real.

A few months later, my mystery man’s face was on every billboard, his name on every lip. Impossible to get away from, even as I knew I’d never be alone with him again.

Yet here we are. The connection is as real and instant as ever. His assurance that the wrong number was an accident is everything I’d ever wanted to hear.

But after years of thinking I was the wronged party, turns out I’m the villain of my own fairy-tale romance. I only got in to see him with stolen press credentials. And I’m only there to nab some scoop for my sister, a notorious Hollywood blogger in the business of outing closeted actors. I’m everything Luke hates.

Most people never get a first chance with the man of their dreams. Now I’ve got a second. Too bad I have no idea how to keep it from turning into a nightmare....

Luke: For years, I chased my own rags-to-riches story, convinced fame and fortune would make me happy. And then I got it, only to find I’d spent all that time chasing the wrong story.

Once upon a time, a man met his Prince Charming, and their one epic night together was perfect and wonderful and real. That’s the dream come true the universe gift-wrapped and delivered to me. The happy ending for which I should have fought. But I couldn’t see what was right in front of me, and I let it all slip away.

Now, I’m doing it again. Fate gave me a second chance, and I’m worrying about my fake romance with an actress I barely even know. Putting the closet and my career over the chance to just hold his hand in public.

I didn’t listen to my heart then and spent six years regretting it. If I make the same mistake again, I know I’ll regret it for a lot longer than that....

This Hollywood scorcher comes with that HEA a true storybook romance deserves. There’s nothing G-rated about these sex scenes though, so 18 and up only!

This is another great read by Peter Styles, with developed characters (second chances romance).
I loved Simon and Luke, both characters were so charismatic. This is a great story about love, friendship, and understanding. A lie by omission is still a lie, but can you see past the betrayal to the truth that lies underneath. The narration was very well done.

Love it

Movie super heroes can be hurt by lies and gossip. Gossip reporters can destroy people and lives with rumor and innuendo. Even when trying to do the right thing, sex is a hot topic that is often misinterpreted for fun and profit by bullies. But pretend superheroes have real super powers of the heart that can overcome all the negatives with honesty and trust in their sidekick partner. Standing back to back they become invincible. Facing front to front they become kissable and X rated. Not ex-rated. Watch for the movie coming soon to a bedroom near you.

Gossip hurts everyone, but love conquers all

Simon had one night with the man of his dreams. Knowing he will never see him again, he tried the number given only to find it fake. Jokes on both of us, what we felt was real.

Luke has thought of nothing else in the six years since he had Simon all to himself. He is saddened by the fact Simon never called him. Living a life in the public eye, he feels lonely and that he can never trust anyone completely.

This story was very gripping. A tale of two souls who should have been together and lost so much time. I was seriously caught right away and had to know the end. Lucky for me, the story was no too long to listen to and was a real challenge for each character.

The narration was done well and the obvious inflections helped to know the person changes. The tonal quality overall was good and it ended well for me.

I must confess at the start that I'm a huge fan of Peter Styles and one click anything he writes! I expected to love this story and I was not disappointed. Peter writes MM stories with just the right balance of realistic relationships and hot sex scenes. If you love second-change romances, you'll love this one! Morgan Sharpe does a wonderful job with the narration -- I'll definitely seek out more listens of his!

A HOT second-chance romance...

That is the theme of this book. Give me today and I'll tell them tomorrow.

This was fun to listen to and the initial mixup is so easy to see happening. Both MCs were very likable and you could tell their relationship was very special from the moment they met!

The narrator was very pleasant to listen to and drew you right into the story.

Argh! This story had my stomach churning all the time because, from almost the beginning, I knew Simon's lies will come back to bite him in the arse, and I kept expecting the 'this' will be the moment in which all would come crashing down.

Not to say that I didn't understand why he kept the truth hidden. I did. I don't justify it, but I understand why he was so reluctant to risk his chance for an opportunity with Luke.

And Luke? Yes, I got him, too. I see how you can get so lost in what you thought you wanted that you can't see that... it changed.

Because that's the thing in this story: there are not villains, There are only people doing what they believe they are meant to do, as best as they can.

So, yes, I truly enjoyed this story =D

And Morgan Sharpe did a great job narrating it.
