About this listen
I’m just playing with you, Danny.
Danny has been harboring a secret crush on his dad’s best friend for years, and when he finds himself helping Jordan with some late night filing, things quickly take a turn for the interesting.
I’m starving, Little Boy.
Jordan should know better, but he can’t tell Danny no. One night turns into two, and two turns into more. Before either man knows it, they’re in a serious - and secret - relationship.
You always belong with me. You always belong to me.
Danny is across the country for school, and his mother’s goal in life is to set Jordan up with one of her friends. Tension and expectations are pulling them apart. One grand gesture gone wrong leaves their secrets in the open where they must face the repercussions and the cost of desire.
I’m going to make sure you know how much I love you.

I didn’t think I’d ever see you again. Reed’s days are full of unexpected surprises - pretty par for the course as the principal of the only Catholic school in a small town, but there’s one surprise he wasn’t prepared for, and that was Dominic O’Halloran. God help me, I want you. Dominic has spent decades thinking about the life he could have lived.

I should never have approached Remington's car. I knew he was dangerous, but he needed help, and I was sure he could pay well for it. When he offers me an astronomical sum to stay with him for two weeks, I can't say no. Even then, I know when our time is up, I'll wish we had forever. Remington cares for me like no man ever has, and I can’t help falling for him. But how could a crime boss be my Prince Charming or give me the fairytale happily-ever-after I’ve always dreamed of?

Milo. Unusual. Quirky. Different. I’ve heard it all. I’ve accepted I’m not for everyone. When I find out I inherited a bookstore and apartment on a small East Coast island, I jump at the chance for a new life. Turns out I’ve also inherited a sexy, tattooed guy who not only rents the space next to my store but my apartment too. Gideon. I wasn’t looking for a roommate, but it’s not like I can stay at Milo’s place while he’s banished to a hotel. According to Milo, we’re bestie goals. And if he doesn’t wear pants at home, who am I to complain?

Story
When it comes to hockey, I'm all about the game. I've worked for years to be one of the best in the league, and l've done it without splashing my orientation all over the tabloids. My hockey image is one I've carefully cultivated, and after one night with Ezra Palaszczuk, I risk it all. He's cocky, obnoxious, and has an ego bigger than Massachusetts. And okay, maybe he's the sexiest man I've ever known. We'll never get along. Not when we sleep together. Not even when my possessive streak awakens. That doesn't stop us from falling into bed together over and over again.

Nothing in my life is really mine. I take care of my mama, work three jobs, I’m there when anyone needs me. Something about the beautiful, lonely man on my mail route interests me. He’s different in my world, where everything’s the same. I think he hates me, but that doesn’t stop me from hand-delivering every package and trying to find ways to make him smile. Then Emerson makes me an offer: He’ll pay me to spend the weekends with him, losing ourselves in each other’s bodies, no feelings or pasts involved.

Tyson Langley thinks the king in Franklin University Kings is in reference to him. Star lacrosse player and God’s gift to the female and male population, there’s nothing the spoiled jock can’t have. It’s impossible for us to be in the same room without talking crap to each other. But I also have a secret…as much as I despise Ty, I want him too. I revel in our banter and in never knowing what he’ll say next. I’ve spent too much time on the wrong side of the law for someone like Ty, though, and if I want to escape my past, he’s a distraction I don’t need.

Military life is all I’ve known since I was born. But when a top-secret mission fails, I find myself suddenly discharged with nowhere to go. Mike Bravo saved my life, and they want me to join them, but there’s one small problem. Isaac “Iris” Griffin. He’s as irresistibly snarky as he always was, only there’s a big difference this time. I’m no longer closeted or scared to live my truth. And the truth is, I’ve always wanted him. It’s against Mike Bravo’s rules to fraternize with other team members. But something tells me Iris might be worth the insubordination.

I’ve had a crush on my brother’s best friend since the moment I laid eyes on him four years ago. Warner Ramsey is 225 pounds of pure hotness, a media darling, and one of the best NFL quarterbacks in the league. Hell, he’s the reason I figured out I’m solidly bi. It was easy to keep my crush under control when I was in college. Now, we play for the same team, and every time he talks smack, I want to shut him up. With my mouth.

I’m never one to turn down a bet. Especially not when it comes to retaliating against the dean for pulling a dick move before summer break. So when the dean’s golden child arrives at Astor for his freshman year, my fellow troublemakers throw down a wager I can’t resist. The target: the dean’s son, John Thomas Hawthorne, or “JT”. The bet: corruption in any way I choose. It should’ve been easy. With his mess of brown curls, pouty lips, and good-boy reputation, JT is the perfect revenge. And even better? He’s straight.

I can feel the heat each time he looks at me - each time he gives in to the desire between us. No matter how much I push to unleash the fire in his eyes, he shoves back harder each time. He’s merciless with his cruel words, telling me how naive I am, how little I know of the world.

Yet they never quite gave up on linking him to some respectable girl with good genes and a generous bank account. Fin's own account was nothing to be ashamed of, but even with all of the advantages, the only true thing he longed for was companionship.

The start of Lee Burrows and I was a college girl’s biggest fantasy. Campus’ most popular guy, the starting quarterback, the same guy I’ve crushed on forever, notices me—the quiet introvert. Although, he never would’ve noticed me if he didn’t need my help passing our biology class. I didn’t think I had a chance with him until he started flirting with me and asking me questions like, “Who was the guy you were talking to?” and “Do you have a boyfriend?”

Story
Bad at commitment or born to roam? Either way, US Deputy Marshal Kurt Dandridge feels trapped. Maybe staying in one place for too long is the source of his unhappiness, or maybe it's because he's engaged to the wrong person. Finding his fiance in bed with another man takes care of one problem but creates another. Ridge needs a place to live. He'd leave Savannah altogether if not for his vow to apprehend an elusive fugitive. Renting a room from Kendall Blakemore seems like the perfect solution until Ridge finds himself falling for the alluring man. Would one kiss derail his course?

Story
I was not a gambler. No way. I've built an existence free of risk and adventure. From my career to a small life with my closest family. I was not going to do anything to jeopardize my heart. But when my neighbor and number one menace to my safe plans showed up in Vegas, I did what every adventurous (not!) woman would do. I got drunk and married the man.

Story
My life was always at a simmer… only stewing, never going anywhere. I was left to fend for myself when it came to affection or love, so I learned to go without. I refused to let them see how broken and lonely I was; it was much easier to hide behind a false reality. I didn't want anyone's pity. I didn't need it. Pity wouldn't put food on the table or keep a roof over our heads. That was all me. Now, I have a second chance at a dream long forgotten. It demands hard work and sacrifice - with absolutely no distractions. A recipe I already know all too well, raising a daughter on my own.

MM/age gap romance
I really enjoyed this MM/age gap romance. A story of fighting for the one you love, the one you believe in, and following your heart. Even if that love is your best friend’s son/your father’s best friend. I loved both Jordan and Danny. They were so good together!
A sweet and steamy story. Great narration too!
I was gifted a free copy of this audiobook, this is my honest opinion.

Daddy Jordan
The Secrets in Edgewood is one of my favorite series of this author’s and I couldn’t have been more excited when these were going to audio. Christopher Rourke was a new to me narrator going into this series and I’m enjoying his narrations so far. He did a great job bringing Daddy Jordan and Danny to life for me. His Daddy Jordan voice was just so perfect, he drew me into their story. I love a good Daddy story when it’s done well, and this one really hit the mark for me. I’m also a sucker for college age, so their story was a must read from the start. I love the care aspect of the Daddy dynamic and Daddy Jordan definitely took care of his boy Danny. It was super hot, filthy, naughty, yet romantic and sweet and I loved every minute of it. The chemistry and dynamic these two had was fantastic. This is dirty sweetness at its finest!

Fantastic!!
Danny has had a crush on his dad’s best friend and business partner. Jordan has an attraction for Danny. They have a steamy encounter one night that quickly leads to more. They navigate their way thru Danny moving on to college and Danny’s mother trying to set Jordan up with her friend, but continue their affair that quickly grows to love. This was fantastic, sooo freaking good. Super steamy and sexy right from the beginning. Christopher Rourke did a fantastic job with the narration!!

Danny didn’t mean to fall in love.
Danny & Jordan are always a fun read. It was great to revisit them in audio this time. This is a wonderfully naughty dad’s best friend age gap book. Jordan is all kinds of sexy and in charge. A perfect mix with Danny’s sweet curiosity. I love the chemistry between these two. What started as an illicit affair turns into so much more as Danny & Jordan unexpectedly fall for each other in the midst of just having some fun. Danny is off to college, and having a secret attachment at home is not easy. Back home Jordan is steady at work, struggling with his boy being away and friends wanting to play matchmaker. The distance is hard, but they are better for it, as Danny has the space to grow into himself. Their love comes at a steep cost in many ways but in the end having each other is worth everything.

Can't wait for the next
Another great add to the series. These two together are hot, sexy, sweet and a crazy amount of chemistry devouring each other. Loved this as a ebook and the audio was so much better bringing them to life. Great flow and tone for each character and I can't wait for the next.

A sweet opposites attract, age gap romance!
This was such a sweet age gap, opposites attract romance!
Danny has had a crush on Jordan for long as he can remember.
He knows his attraction is forbidden, but one chance encounter with the man of his dreams leaves him reeling and drawing him back for more.
Danny and Jordan want different things from life. Will the attraction between them be able to withstand the obstacles that life throws at them?
Can they keep their relationship under wraps lobg enough to figure out what they want?
Christopher Rourke's narration and audio delivery was superb and so apt for this.

Fantastic
Daddy Jordan and his boy Danny are an absolutely amazing read. Hot and steamy scenes mixed with sweet and loving moments - the daddy kink adds the spice. I like the hidden lovers theme with the drama it supplied to the story.
Christopher Rourke does a fantastic job as Narrator. Smooth recording and enjoyable voice performance. Loved it!
