Publisher's summary
The only thing that frustrates me more than my life, is Elliot!
And the feeling is mutual.
Yes, yes, I know. I let my temper run away with me again. That's what got me locked up in the first place. I hit Riley, then Elliot and I got into a fight, and now I'm stuck with the idiot 24/7. What kind of hellish punishment is that?
I don't think I hate him, and I'll be the first to admit he's kind of hot, but God, will he ever just shut up!
Forced together and told to work out whatever this thing is between us, it turns out Elliot may be the one person in the world capable of keeping my temper at bay. He gets me. Maybe we could be good for each other. Maybe more?
Turns out we are good together, very good! He brings out a softer side of me no one has seen before, including me. I can't possibly be falling for him, can I?
But violence and death are just around the corner, and if I'd known what hell awaited us thanks to a missing flock of dumb sheep and a gang of drug runners, I might have walked away but now, it's too late.

Story
Six months undercover on a ranch known for rehabilitation is my ticket to finishing my degree. Me? I’m just a guy who’s gay, terrified of horses, and somehow convinced this is a good idea. The owners are in on my secret, but Max, my rugged, horse-whispering mentor, isn’t. Did I mention he’s infuriatingly attractive?

Story
It was supposed to be a straightforward protection job. Remove the target from Vermont, get him to the safehouse, keep him there until his mafia uncle testifies, get back in my employer’s good graces. But it turns out things get complicated real fast when your target is an adorkable, accident-prone cutie with a shockingly low sense of self-preservation, zero clue that he’s related to the Fromadgio crime boss, and 100% too much inclination to chat happily with strangers.

Now I’m stuck in my cabin during a snowstorm, trapped with the most beautiful man I’ve ever met - who can’t wait to get away. He just might break my heart when he goes.

After everything I’ve lost in my life, it’s important that I keep myself tightly guarded. Especially around Bishop Sullivan. Dad would be rolling in his grave if he found out I was shacking up with a Sullivan, given the bad blood between our families. But eleven years after leaving, I’m back in Laurel Springs with something to prove: I don’t need the Sullivans, nor their land.

I was drowning in debt and my sister needed help, so I made a terrible choice. I borrowed money from the infamous Marchesi family, knowing I had no way to pay them back. Did I think I could evade them? Did I think I’d win the lottery? No, I didn’t think at all. I just acted. Now, a killer is at my door, a man known for his ruthlessness, his persistence, and the way he can bring a man to his knees–for business or pleasure. I’ve got to find a way to pay him back, and the only thing I own free and clear is my body.

The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

Christian took my breath away during my vacation and introduced me to things I never knew could feel so good and be so right. I think he just might be the one who inspires me to tell the world that this NFL quarterback is bisexual and in love with a man.

Hi, my name is Fisher, and I'm hooked on my dad's rival. I've been in love with Hudson Nash for years, but he's too stubborn to admit he wants me, too. For a whole bunch of stupid reasons. Like the fact that I'm too young. (What's a twenty-year gap? Age is just a number, am I right?) And a virgin. (Which he could easily fix!) And maybe not the best choice, given he and my dad hate each other. (It's not that ba—Okay, it is that bad, but our love could totally rise above, right? It would be epic!)

Otherwise, the guy would hear Az's dirty talk which would be all kinds of humiliating considering Az is actually a virgin who doesn't even know if he's doing phone job properly. But Travis isn't deaf. He's standing in for someone else and hears every single word of Az's raunchy call. So when they're randomly set up on a blind date together, the sparks fly from the very first moment they meet.

Wells: The first thing I notice about Conor Newell when he sits down in my high-rise conference room is how delightfully nervous he is. Then I see his tie. The same geeky tie that’s held hostage on my phone. The one that belongs to my anonymous late-night texter. And it changes everything.

Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years.

I had a stable life as a fire captain in Seattle, married to one of my best friends and raising two awesome kids. Now, my kids are grown, and my marriage is toast. I'm solidly past forty and back in my tiny hometown of Mount Hope, Oregon, filling in as a firefighter. My future is one big question mark keeping me up at night. Also keeping me up?

I know I can be a grumpy bastard, and I’m not the easiest man to deal with, but you’d think my best friend would trust me. We don’t keep secrets, even about our love lives. That’s what I thought until I found out Dean was seeing someone. I don’t like it...don’t ask me why. But there’s more to the story than I thought, and now I have to deal with feelings I didn’t even know were possible for me.

Story
The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

But it turns out things get complicated real fast when your target is an adorkable, accident-prone cutie with a shockingly low sense of self-preservation, zero clue that he’s related to the Fromadgio crime boss, and 100% too much inclination to chat happily with strangers.

Story
The memory of Josiah DeMille has haunted me for close to a decade. The way he looked. The way he smelled. The way his lips felt pressed against mine, even when they shouldn't have been. The one person I've never been able to get over. The one singular part of my past I've never been able to move on from. In every lyric sung into the microphone, in every chord strummed on the guitar, in the bottom of every single whiskey bottle, he's there. His memory has me in a chokehold. His absence a gaping hole in my chest. I gave up years ago, wondering if I'd ever stop thinking about him.

Of all the people who could have seen me when I was at my most vulnerable, it had to be him. Caleb. My stepbrother and the golden child of our messed up blended family. We barely know each other, but for some reason, he takes care of me when an incident at the club leaves me helpless and alone. He hates me as much as I hate him, but something about his bossy attitude and unflappable calm soothes me. I don't want to want him, but no one has ever made me feel the way he does.

Great narration
**update to my original review**
I just listened to the audio book narrated by Michael Dean. I loved his Texas accent. He made the story come alive.
Wow, talk about opposites. Elliot and Reno are both in prison for different reasons. They were both sent on a reformed ranch. Reno has a horrible attitude, who hates everyone. Elliot has ADHD. He is high energy and speaks a lot. As a "punishment," they were both thrown today, 24-7. They were not happy about that. They constantly fight. They had one thing in common, both had a bad upbringing. It was nice seeing Reno's slow change.
This book was so good, a page turner, and emotional. It is a standalone with a HEA.

Really good book
Reno and Elliott's story was really good read. These two are opposites but are just what the other needs. Reno and Elliot are forced to spend time together after they bump heads too many times but that is the push they need to realize they need and want each other. Michael Dean did a wonderful job bring Reno and Elliot to life. Michael Dean is one of my favorite narrators.

Opposites Attract
I enjoyed listening to this opposites attract story. Elliot and Reno had quite a bit of fun banter but emotional points also. I also enjoyed Michael Dean's great narration.

Romance and action/survival
Book two in a series but can stand alone. Prickly Reno and boisterous Elliot get paired up as a result of an incident at the Isaiah Ranch, a place where prisoners get a chance to work their way up in a sort of work parole situation.
As they learn to tolerate one another and find they get along, and their attraction becomes explosive. Meanwhile, peril lurks in the future where they have to survive to be together.
Michael Dean’s voice performance, as always, is fantastic.

I Enjoyed It
'I jammed my thumb at Elliot. “He gives off an aura that sucks you into his chipmunk-brained world. I’ve given up trying to keep up with it. Just gives me a headache.”
“I like how I’m the one with ADD, but it’s somehow my fault that you guys got off topic,” Elliot scowled.'
I really enjoyed this book. I loved both Elliot and Reno and the dynamic between them. They were opposites, but balanced each other out and brought out each other's better qualities. Their bickering and banter was outright funny at times and I loved the grumpy/sunshine personalities. And their chemistry was scorching. <3 I also loved the supporting characters.
Michael Dean did a great job bringing these characters to life. I especially loved his voice for Elliot and that southern accent! I just found his personality all the more charming by listening to him.

Enemies to lovers
Reno lets his temper get in the way takes it too far with Riley. Leon decides that the best thing for him and Elliot is to room together, work together and be constant companions. Elliot is a constant talker and it is not long before he sets Reno off, their fight turns into something more.
Elliot just might be the one person that Reno needs in his life. Reno might be the one to keep the gremlin in Elliot's head at bay. The pair have such chemistry and learn to work well each other. The each have a support system that was lacking in their early lives. The narrator does a better job with this one over the first, it is easier to tell each character apart.

Was fine until the end
This book is well written. However, I became uncomfortable with the introduction of the Spanish drug cartel. I feel like the book reinforces negative stereotypes about Latinx immigrants and doesn’t portray the struggle of Latinx immigrants in a humanizing way. Latinx immigrants are often fleeing persecution, famine, genocide, poverty, and violence at home. They seek refuge in the U.S. and go through great lengths to work hard to provide for their families at home. This portrayal of Latinx immigrants feeds into a negative narrative that they’re the violent bad guys who are a threat to Americans, meanwhile we’re the ones who are making their countries inhabitable. I refused to finish the book knowing that the racial stereotypes would only agitate me.
