About this listen
Jack Hulbert has worked at the hardware store Nuts and Bolts since he was sixteen. He had big dreams of leaving town and traveling, but five years later, not much has changed, and he worries he'll end up living the rest of his life in the small town he was born in.
Hudson Carter has been working in Sacramento for the past ten years, managing a big box store. He left Foggy Basin for college in the city and he never once looked back. His parents have owned the hardware store in town for two generations, and he'd hoped to avoid the same fate, but when his father tells him his plans to either sell the store or close it, he has a change of heart.
Hudson has been single for years, and a few bad breakups have left him jaded about finding the perfect partner. But he's not prepared for the cute, and much younger man who knows far more than he does about running the hardware store and isn't afraid to tell him. It's time for this city boy to embrace his country roots and find out what really matters in his life, and a certain country boy is more than willing to help.

Story
Meet Randi Burnett—she’s brilliant, she’s beautiful, and she works for the bride. Missing groom? Intoxicated in-laws? Crying ring-bearer? You name it, she wrangles it. Too bad her personal life isn’t thriving like her side gig as a bridesmaid for hire. Recently dumped, Randi throws herself into her biggest challenge yet when she’s hired as a maid of honor and pretend best friend for an ice queen bride. There’s just one problem—the best man is infuriating, overprotective, and anti-marriage.

Story
Kyran Harbor is everything I'm not. Rich. Popular. A superstar football player who's awfully broody for someone who has it all. Basically, he's a preppy jock who hates me. Oh, and he's also my stepbrother. That's right. We're stuck together, sharing a school, a house, a bathroom. Honestly I wouldn't care if he wasn't such an uptight control freak who messes with me just because we're different. I had every intention of avoiding him when we got to college. Until abrupt misfortune forces us both into a compromising position.

Story
A disturbing tale of a young man's uncanny ability to remain both young and beautiful while descending into a life of heartless debauchery, The Picture of Dorian Gray was considered proof of both Wilde's genius and his perversion. Oscar Wilde's scandalous best seller of 1891 was one of the most damning pieces of evidence used against him in the trial that brought about his downfall.

I cross the tracks every day for one reason - to graduate from this school and get into the Ivy League. I'm not ashamed of where I come from, my family, or how everyone at Marymount thinks my skirts are too short and my lipstick is too red. Clay Collins and her friends have always turned up their noses at me. The witch with her beautiful skin, clean shoes, and rich parents who torments me daily and thinks I won't fight back. At least not until I get her alone and find out she's hiding so much more than just what's underneath those pretty clothes.

Story
My reputation and professionalism are the reasons I'm about to secure the promotion of a lifetime. So the last person I need anywhere near me is Luke Beaumont, the very definition of temptation and the man I've just been ordered to protect at any cost. Luke is everything I'm not. Charming and wealthy, messy and reckless. And he's made it his mission to make my job impossible. While my irritatingly impulsive client would rather ignore the dangers of old family secrets and new forbidden attractions, I know better.

Hudson and Jack
Hudson left Foggy Basin to go to college and stayed in the city for a career. When his dad tells him he is thinking of selling the family hardware story he takes some time off and heads to his hometown. He meets Jack, who works for his dad, the younger man is snarky but is worried about his job when he finds the owner might sell.
The more the time the pair spend together the more attraction blooms. I enjoyed the story but was not really a fan of the narrator.

Hudson & Jack
This was another good story in this multi-author series. There was a short part of the story that didn't work well for me but it wasn't enough to take too much away from the rest of the story. I enjoyed Hudson and Jack's story and their happily ever after. I loved the audiobook for this. Guy Veryzer's narration was perfect for this story.
I received an ARC and this is my unbiased opinion

Sweet small town
The audio version of BL Maxwell's Nuts and Bolts does credit to the story. Guy Veryzer's narration gives a nice, laid back tone to a sweet story about a city boy coming back to his country roots. Hudson Carter left Foggy Basin twenty years ago to go to college and then work in Sacramento. He doesn't love his job and the news that his dad, Jonas, is going to sell the family hardware store gives him the chance to reassess his life. Jack Hulbert has never traveled far from Foggy Basin. Why should he? His family and friends are all there, and he loves his job at Nuts and Bolts, the Carter family hardware store. He manages the store as Jonas slowly steps away from it.
This is a grumpy/grumpy, city vs. country, small town trope story with an age gap between the main characters. Jack and Hudson clash, but are attracted, become friends, than lovers in a few short weeks. Their date at the lake was very romantic, and the sizzle will make your ears tingle.
I loved the book, but like all BL Maxwell stories, found it too short, too quickly read. This audio adds an extra sweetness. Very relaxing.
I received an advanced copy of the audio code and this is my review.

Not For Me
I really enjoy BL Maxwell's stories, but this was a miss for me. I liked the premise of the son who left to fulfill the life he wanted but coming back when his parents are going to give up the store. I thought the dynamic between him and the longtime employee would be fun or have some tension. But I just wasn't feeling the chemistry. Jack made bad impression on me early on and I just didn't like his attitude. Hudson was okay but didn't stand out to me either way.
I also didn't like this narrator's work. I couldn't tell their voices apart very well and didn't really like the inflections in his voice as he narrated.
This one just wasn't for me.
