About this listen
The honeymoon may be over, but the passion is just beginning.
Rory’s dream honeymoon in New Zealand is a disaster. Rejected and abandoned, he flees from his new husband, nursing his broken heart, and deeply dented self-confidence. When Rory’s motorhome breaks down in the remote mountains, he thinks things can’t get any worse, until a rough, tough, young Kiwi mechanic comes to fix it.
But it's more than just the vehicle that needs fixing. Drawn to the tattooed mechanic, Rory is determined not to act on his feelings. He must try to salvage his marriage - he can’t follow his heart to find love in the wilderness.
Aiden knows about the wild country, he can fix cars, he knows how everything works...except love. He’s never met a man like Rory before, someone sensitive, artistic, and openly gay and Aiden can't let him go. Running from his own demons, the young mechanic must choose between everything he knows, and everything he desires...
A stand-alone high-heat age-gap gay MM romance, featuring a young man’s awakening, steamy first-time gay experiences, crossed swords, and a guaranteed happy ending.

Story
Young college-boy Josh likes everything about Rob. He’s strong, tough, capable - and utterly gorgeous. Not that Josh is gay, of course. So why does he keep fantasizing about his best friend’s father? And what will his friend say if he ever finds out? Both the repressed alpha male and the innocent college boy are determined that nothing will happen. But they can’t deny the passion that flares when they touch, and a troubled romance slowly blossoms.

Story
Payne. In search of: Room to rent. Must ignore the patheticness of a 40-year-old roommate. Preferably dirt cheap as funds are tight (nonexistent). There’s nothing sadder than moving back to my hometown newly divorced, homeless, and lost for what my next move is. When my little brother’s best friend offers me a place to stay in exchange for menial duties, I swallow my pride and jump at the offer. I need this. I also need Beau to wear a shirt. And ditch the gray sweatpants. And not leave his door ajar when he’s in compromising positions...

Story
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?

I’m a SEAL. Or rather, I was. Retired at the grand old age of 38, I’m at loose ends. My best friend wants me to join his security team. I’m not sure I’m bodyguard material, but he needs someone to protect his kid brother. How hard can spoiled brat duty be? Somehow, I missed the part where former child star Danny Love went from dorky TV darling to all grown up and disturbingly attractive. All the gossip about his wild ways fails to mention that he’s trying hard to clean up his act.

Story
I spent college worrying about responsibilities and earning my teaching degree, so before graduation and moving to Atlanta with my best friend, Ross, I figure I deserve a little fun. I’ve never been with an older man, but the guy at the bar grabs my attention and doesn’t let go…for multiple rounds, all night long. The next day, when Ross introduces me to his dad, the last thing I expect is for him to be my hookup from the night before, in town from Atlanta for his son’s graduation. The best thing would be to pretend it never happened, which is easier said than done.

Story
In my defense, I was left alone with a bottle of single-malt and a lifelong penchant for protecting my baby sister. Still, that's no excuse to send 10 drunk-texts on why her hasty marriage would be a mistake. If only I had just texted my sister. But nope. I accidentally sent the message to her, her groom, and his super hot wingman. I also used the phrase “super hot wingman”, so I’d like to die now.

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 wasn't supposed to fall for my older brother's best friend. Unfortunately, that ship sailed when I was a teenager, even though Chase Hawthorne always treated me like nothing more than a younger sibling. Things were worse after my parents died. Chase was sweet and supportive, which only strengthened my feelings for him. But then he'd act like I couldn't take care of myself, and that part didn't go over well with me. Yeah, I had a habit of screwing up.

Look, when I met the sexy, witty Brit on the streets of London last night, I had no idea who he was. He was just that hot guy I wanted to have a drink with, so I asked him out for my first evening in town. One thing almost led to another. After a midnight kiss, we made plans for a whole lot more the next day. But when I unlock the door to my rental in the morning, the English hottie is lounging on the couch like he lives here too. Great. For the next year, I’ll be sharing a tiny flat with the sexiest guy I’ve ever known.

Holden Henry is every girl’s dream—kind, funny, outgoing. A catch in every sense. Despite my wrong-side-of-the-tracks upbringing, he’s been my friend forever. He has no idea I’ve had more-than-friends feelings for him for years, and I intend to keep it that way. When I’m forced to return to the small town where we grew up, I’m faced with a big, fat problem. Being a good pal, Holden offers me a too-tempting solution: a marriage of convenience. It’s a crazy plan...but I’m desperate enough to try it. Besides, he’s not just saving me; we’ll be helping each other.

Story
Mav disappeared before I could ever tell him about the child I carried. I’ve had years to get over him, and I’ve tried. But the second I see him again my heart lurches and it’s like all that time evaporates. I still burn for him, even though I know it’s a bad idea. I try to remind myself about the bad things: his possessiveness, his quick temper...but he’s different now. More mature. Protective. Settled. And hiding something. Something bigger than the child we share.

Story
Ruthless might as well be Gray Bennett’s middle name. When the renowned Washington, D.C. insider talks, powerful people listen. But Gray hasn’t come home to Saranac Lake to play politics. Or play at all. A tragedy has shaken the unshakable Gray Bennett to his hardened core. And so has the most unlikely of women. The mousy redhead who used to run around the Moorehouse B and B - the one he never noticed - is now all fiery hair and lush curves. But sweet Joy Moorehouse is too innocent for a cynic like him.

She couldn't remember a thing, not even who she was. But it was clear Bailey James was in trouble. Big trouble. And she desperately needed private eye Cade Parris to help her find out just what kind. Surely she wasn't a criminal - but then what on earth was she doing with a bag full of cash and a stunning blue diamond as big as a baby's fist?

Sweet
Truthfully, I always set a rather low bar for books whose titles include their tropes. I don't necessarily need to know that this is "An Age-Gap, Opposites Attract, Fake Marriage, Best Friend's Brother, Interracial, Sweet With Heat, Both Guys Are Named Clarence, Small Town Romance" or whatever other things you can think of to cram in there. I swear the narrator just reading the title takes up like a third of the book.
But! This one was really good. I liked the setting, I liked both main characters, the prose was good, and the narrator was good. What more could you ask for? It was also the perfect length; any shorter would have felt rushed, and any longer and I would have thought it went on too long.
The plot is thus: Rory and Hugo have just gotten married and are on their honeymoon in New Zealand. Hugo is (rather unrealistically) loathsome, and Rory has apparently just noticed this. So Rory sets off on his own to prove that he's perfectly capable of taking care of himself, and promptly mucks everything up. Enter Aiden, a tattooed local mechanic much, much younger than Hugo. The attraction is immediate, but Aiden is closeted--the book could have gone into slightly more detail about this, but I suppose it's not really the focus--and Rory is, technically, still married.
The chapters are rather unusually structured, as we get alternating points of view, but the Aiden chapters are just very quick recaps of the preceding chapter. They're much, much shorter than the chapters from Rory's point of view, and serve to offer us a quick glimpse into what Aiden is thinking. As a result, by the end, we know Rory much better than we know Aiden, but it still works surprisingly well.
David McPartlan is a narrator I'm unfamiliar with, but he does a very nice job with this book. He does read Aiden's lines in a passable Kiwi accent, though it's rather understated, which to me is far preferable to overstated. I'd happily listen to another book he has narrated.
The one flaw in the book, which I've already sort of mentioned, is that Hugo, Rory's husband, is just a cartoonish, outrageously evil jerk. The thing is, before we actually meet him on the page, I thought he was being described as a somewhat realistic overbearing snob, but when he does show up, he's just WAY over-the-top. Nobody is that bad in real life, or if they are, they're better at hiding it. It was too much, and it was the only part that took me out of the story a bit.
But that was the only issue I really had. Everything else was sweet, I REALLY liked both Rory and Aiden, and the narration was good enough for me to bump the rating up from four to five stars. I'd listen to it a second time, and as a matter of fact, halfway through the book I decided to by the audio version of the first book in the series, and I'll probably buy the third when it's released.

Mediocre & not worth 1 credit
Disappointed. This<4hr book is not worth 1 credit. I should have looked at the length before buying. The narration alternates between Rory & Aiden. At first the audiobook narrator speaks Aiden’s lines with a USaccent, later it becomes more down under. The author treads water a lot. Instead of the story continuing forward after a long scene narrated by Rory, the author simply repeats the entire previous chapter but in a different voice. True this reveals something new about Aiden but it’s mostly dry and redundant.
