About this listen

From USA Today best-selling author Marley Valentine comes a brand new emotional MM romance.

I couldn’t tell you when I fell in love with Gael Herrera, but I wish I knew how to make it stop.

Falling in love with a straight man is a rookie mistake. But falling in love with my soon-to-be-married-to-a-woman best friend is nothing but heartache.

Through all the years, and all the men I’ve fooled around with, he’s always been at the back of my mind. An unrequited crush I wish I could shake. A dream that was never going to come true.

When I whisk him off to a surprise bachelor party weekend in Vegas, I surrender to the idea that this is an opportunity for me to finally let go of my feelings for him and say goodbye.

But after a heated exchange and an even hotter kiss, everything I thought I knew about our friendship changed.

Maybe I had it wrong. Maybe, after all this time, we were more than best friends. Maybe, just maybe, he felt it too.

Ache is an MM Romance narrated by Gomez Pugh and Teddy Hamilton with a supporting performance by Emma Wilder. This is not a ménage romance.

WELL. THAT HURT.

I did not see that coming and I was NOT prepared. Lord have mercy. I should have known better too because I was like "wow this is such a sweet book". Then bam. Direct hit to the heart. Tears rolling down my face in public.

I dont want to say too much because I think you should go in blind like I did so here are some tropes instead.

-Hurt/Comfort
-Pain
-More Pain
-Best Friends to Lovers
-Cheating (not between the mcs)

The narrators are INCREDIBLE!

OUCH.

Another amazing book by Marley Valentine. Perfect unrequited love/friends to lovers story. I absolutely loved Gael & Jordan’s story. There were so many highs & so many lows. I throughly enjoyed the journey into their world. I’m sad the book is over. I’m already missing them both! Amazing Narration by Teddy Hamilton, Gomez Pugh & Emma Eilder.

Loved it! A Must Listen!

I loved this story. such an emotional roller coaster. my heart broke for everyone involved, even Elena which definitely didnt deserve what she got but sometimes life happens and you no control of who you love.
the accident scene narrated by Teddy was perfection. i felt every bit of emotion and my heart ached with him.

totally recommend 👌

Jordan and Gael ❤

I have enjoyed this book in both audio and text form. I have come back to it several times. I love the story and the feelings that just poured out of both men.

neither wanted to hurt anyone, but it happened. and the way the author describes everything is just so beautiful. they love each other so heavily and my God does that come out.

highly recommend either version to people...but the audio book really is amazing. this story prompted me to read everything I could from this author. I know it will do the same for others.

This book just killed me. My heart hurts and it's also full. I had so many emotions reading this.
Gael and Jordan are life long friends. Jordan is gay and in love with Gael. Meanwhile Gael is engaged to Elena. One trip to Vegas changes so much. For everyone.
This is not an easy read, but any means. Marley Valentine took my heart and just squeezed tight. She shocked me, made me cry, broke me down and put me back together, all in one story.
I can't tell you enough how much I loved this book. I want to say so much, but don't want to spoil anything.  The attention to details, the honesty in the characters feelings, the truth and rawness of their reactions were all written perfectly.
Teddy Hamilton and Gomez Pugh were both so great in this. I loved that Gomez had the right accent for all the Spanish words. it makes such a difference when the narrator fits the part. And Emma Wilder's part was small, but she made an impact.
This was a true five star read.

Ache is right
