About this listen

“What makes him so special?”

“He reminds me of someone I once knew…”

As the founder of Freedom Fighters, famed music composer, William Mayes, is often the first port of call when the FBI needs assistance with human trafficking victims.

After receiving such a call one night, William abandons everything to catch the next flight home. Arriving at Manhattan Memorial, he finds a beautiful young man restrained to a gurney. His eyes are wild with fear, and blood stains his skin. No one has been successful in getting him to speak.

When even he can’t get the young man to cooperate, William does something he may later come to regret—he extends an invite to his home.

The young man is non-verbal, angry, and at times openly hateful. All of which gives him control over William’s emotions.

William slowly begins to spiral from his own struggles with his tormented past. His nightmares return, sleep becomes a lost cause, and the dark voices in his head are out for blood.

Amid their co-dependent isolation, William’s feelings evolve. Lines are blurred, and then crossed altogether as they start down a path riddled with secrets and lies of omission.

The only thing that can set them both free is the truth. But maybe some things are better left buried. Because if the ugliest parts of William are ever unearthed, no one will be spared.

Only the Small Bones is an MM romance, and book one in the standalone series Slow Burns & Tragic Beginnings. This story features a non-verbal MC with touch aversion, and mental health representation. Please visit the author's website for a full list of content warnings.

Emotional Rollercoaster

Let me start by saying I truly appreciate the author’s storytelling skills. I’ve respected each character experience in all of her books. Yet, this reading experience really brought on strong sorrowful emotions when confronted with how cruel individuals can be. Conversely, I admired the characters’ strength, determination and resilience when dealing with adversity. Respecting how the writer displayed the effort it takes to rise above the ashes. Pay attention to the trigger warnings and read this book when you’re emotionally stable so that you may appreciate the characters’ healing journeys.

ALL THE FEELS…..WOW… I WASN’T READY

Where to begin. I listened to this book out of curiosity, I wasn’t prepared for the emotions to pour out. When I listen to this book I visualize what I heard. This is a beautiful love story with some real life issues. You here about this subject all the time. But this story, it’s from the victims point of view. This was deep. The narrator was excellent, he draws you in with his storytelling, for feel the pain, the angst, the regret. The author is one I always follow. Please have a lot of tissue on hand.
