About this listen

It all started with a cat on my roof. My neighbor's Siamese to be exact.

When Mrs. Higgins begged me to go up on my roof to save Chloe, I did it to appease her because she thought the cat was stuck. The cat wasn't stuck. But I was.

The ladder fell, Mrs. Higgins called 911, and the guy I’d had a crush on since high school arrived with the fire department and saved me.

To my surprise, he asked me out, and our relationship took off.

That was until I got the opportunity of a lifetime to go to Paris for six months and didn't see him again for two years when he was a passenger on the flight I was working.

I was still in love with him, but he told me he was now a part-time gigolo, and there was no way I could ever share him with anyone else. Even if the job was only for money. So I let him go. Like I should have done with that damn cat in the first place.

I Want a Firefighting Gigolo Like Galen

When I listened to the audiobook of Ex-Rated Gigolo, I was very impressed by the narration by Summer Roberts and Aaron Shedlock. Both of these were new to me narrators. Ms. Summers does an excellent job voicing Mila and her bubbly personality as well as her attitude when thing aren't going well. I know Mr. Shedlock is a very popular narrator and after listening to him voice Galen, I totally understand why. His voice has a smooth as fine wine quality that is fine and sexy. I'll definitely be looking for more books to listen to by both of these narrators. 've read a couple of books in this author's Saddles and Racks series and enjoyed them, so this one was immediately added to my TBR. I'm so glad I did, this story had me smiling from the first scene when the hottie firefighter "rescued" his high school crush off the roof when she tried to rescue her neighbors cat. Galen and Mila's story is sweet and steamy, with a dash of heartache.
Mila crushed on Galen and school and vice versa but nothing ever became of it, so when they meet years later, they start spending time together. Mila has an exceptional opportunity to study in Paris for six month after she completes cosmetology school. When she earns the trip it throws a wrench into their budding relationship. While they have spent every spare minute together since reconnecting they never labeled their relationship, but what harm could six months apart do?
Ms. Knight does an excellent job throwing this couple onto a rollercoaster of a relationship: the highs of the new relationship, the separation and lack of communication, and the failure on both of their parts to reach out upon Mila's return. Though they both realize too late they love the other, it takes two years and several dead ends before the couple gets to their HEA. I loved this story and the chemistry and heat between the couple and was rooting for them the entire book.

I have mixed feelings about this audio book

I'll start by saying I really enjoyed the writers style and the storyline sucked me in. The author has a way of writing scenes that seriously capture your attention.
Mila and Galen knew each other from school but weren't close. They reconnect again a few years after highschool and are immediately drawn to each other. I lovd their instant connection, but also that it wasn't forced. I didn't like how insecure Mila was, I normally prefer the female leads to be strong and independent, but it wasn't a deal breaker, and Mila's personality really grew on me. I loved that she still went for her dream in Paris and didn't give it up for a guy.

She can back and they lost touch. I hated it, but it's the angst that draws you in! I again love that she followed another passion of hers. I wish Galen would have tried to reach out, and it really made me lose respect for him, but I didn't give up hope for him yet.

Then they see each other again on an airplane 2 years later. This is where the story went downhill for me, and I ended up losing respect for Galen, and really wondering about the mental state of both of them. He loves her, but never reached out? He wants her to move in with him after one date back together? A date they only had because his "client" gave him a day, and night off? He claimed he would have quit for Mila if she couldn't handle his escort job. That's crap, he should have quit because HE wanted to.

I just didn't understand how Mila would always chase her dreams and then after one date gave everything up for Galen. A guy who proved on more than one occasion that he would never do the same for her.

Then all of a sudden they're getting married? At a drive though?? And without her parents who live in the same town? Did I mention her parents didn't even meet Galen until the day before?

Despite the previous rant, I really did enjoy the story. The ending was just far too rushed, and didn't give enough time for Galen to redeem himself in my eyes. I mean, she purposed because she thought he was seriously injured in the hospital, and he was in the hospital because he got hurt while on a date with another girl! (Two other girls!) He goes from grinding on a girl at a night club, to getting married just days later?

Okay ranting again. Clearly I'm passionate about this story. Read it for yourself, because I need someone else to discuss this book with! 🤣
