When hockey star Linc Carpenter is banned from playing his beloved sport, he starts over, slinging drinks in Tampa. He's inept as a bartender, so when the opportunity arises to train as a private investigator he takes it. He's not very good at that either, but he still manages to get hired to follow fashion mogul Quentin Faulkner.

Linc's incompetence is a hindrance, but Brady Williams, Faulkner's studly bodyguard, may prove to be his undoing. Brady is drawn to Linc despite his bungling, and Linc's stupidity may be just what's needed to solve the case and save their lives.

Second edition. A scene of approximately 2,000 words was added.

This was the first book from this author and narrator I have read/listened to. I was looking for a good laugh, and boy did I find it. I don’t know how the narrator could deliver so well and not crack up himself.

My stomach hurts from laughing so much!

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce to you the worst PI in the world! :P

This is a short, funny story with a less than brilliant main character, a love of soap operas and lots of scheming... some of which it even works :P

I really enjoyed it :D

Very funny

I listened to this while I was typing, and was laughing so hard that I had to keep leaving the room and wiping my tears and catching my breath. We all know one lovable person that repeats things wrong. So funny.

Don’t listen when you’re supposed to be quiet.

Loved everything about this story. The plot, the characters, the narrator and the twist. This was my first book by this author and I was not disappointed. His characters weren't perfect but they were perfectly flawed and that made them all the more lovable.

John Solo narrated this beautifully!

Perfect-er, Perfect-est

This audiobook version of Ethan Stone’s Bartender, PI, nicely narrated by John Solo, is a clever, chuckle worthy, and completely improbably lark.

Brady Williams, the body guard to fashion designer Quentin Faulkner, turned out to be one of the more interesting characters in the audiobook, although it’s Linc Carpenter’s bumbling PI efforts and malapropisms that lend the humor to the story.

If you’re looking to be entertained with some funny fluff for a few hours on a rainy afternoon, this could well be the story to satisfy your needs.

Chuckle worthy and completely improbable

So much fun!

This book is hilarious, it truly will have you giggling. You will also find yourself talking back to your audio.

The book description is right on point. We have our not very competent yet extremely likable Linc who is kind of trying to find his next career after being banned from hockey. The things that come out of this guys mouth would have you turning your head in public saying "what the" but not in an offensive way. This book is not sexy, not intense and doesn't have to be categorized as a gay audiobook because it is just a good fun time with gay men involved. It is worth the money and is the 2nd Ethan Stone audio I have. Buy "In the Flesh" if you would like a better more involved listen from this author. You will listen to both of these more then once. Good job to John Solo for his narrating our wacky Linc, he does a good job on the other voices too.

Looking for a good fun time, try this one

I love this. At first I thought the performance made the characters sound like muppets. I don't know if this was intentional or not. However, given the humor of the story/characters involved, I LOVED it after a while. It made the characters even more hilarious.

OMG Hillarious!
