From online forum, to published book, to audiobook

I read this on an online forum as it was being written by the author in parts. It was so well-received that he self-published it and released it in all formats. I loved it on the forum and love, love, love the audiobook version. It is a story of a gay man named Tom who develops a platonic relationship with Matt, a straight delivery driver, and how this relationship develops. Arnold Miles has written a story with a lot of nuance, for a shorter work, bringing a lot of levels to what it means for a gay man to have different types of relationships, and for a questioning/curious man to safely and comfortably to engage such a personal journey, no matter what his ultimate sense of identity ends up being. There are sexual situations, but the intimate moments (both platonic and sexual) between Tom and Matt are everything, especially with the narrator's performance. I can't wait to see what other works Arnold Miles publishes and releases in audiobook form.

Nathan Wolfe is a fantastic narrator who brings the story to life with nice feeling and expression. I am shocked that he only has one other narration credit, as he is way too good to not be doing this more. We definitely need more narrations from Nathan.
