Publisher's summary

Austen Payne, THIRDS Squadron Specialist Agent (SSA) for Destructive Delta and TIN operative, has seen the worst the world has to offer. He has faced lethal killers, and helped bring down dangerous organizations. But nothing terrifies him more than falling in love. After years of undercover work, Austen is a master at defending himself and protecting his heart…until he meets Osmond Zachary.

Defense Agent Osmond Zachary has a huge, doting family, yet something is missing in his life. After meeting grumpy, foul-mouthed, jittery cheetah Therian Austen Payne, Zach knows exactly what that something—or someone—is. Unfortunately, Austen seems determined to avoid Zach at all costs.

When Zach foils an assassination attempt, he ends up in the killer’s crosshairs, and Austen is Zach’s best chance at staying alive. Zach hopes the crisis will bring them closer, but Austen has every intention of walking away as soon as the danger is over.

Happily ever after isn’t for guys like Austen, but Zach is determined to show him it can be….

The Thirds: Rebels series is a spin-off of the Thirds series. Each Thirds: Rebels audiobook is stand-alone, and although listening to the Thirds series can enhance the user's experience, it is not necessary to enjoy the Thirds: Rebels series.

enjoyed it

📖 Story comment: Good pace, likeable characters, entertaining plot.
If the listener is unfamiliar with The Thirds Series, there will probably be questions, and the end does setup the TIN series, but Love and Payne can be listened to without prior knowledge of the other characters without being lost.

I enjoyed Austin and Zach's story. Austin is so prickly - he needs Zach and his crazy bear family. There's never a dull moment in this one.

🎧 Narrator comment: It's easy to tell Mark Westfield is comfortable in this world and with these characters - it feels like he own's them and they are an extension of who he is. He suits the characters giving them each their own voice and personality, has good timing, inflections and intonations and brings all the life and emotion to the story for a completely immersive experience.
