And you get: One HELL-raising cocktail of trouble.
Welcome to my life. Please drink responsibly.
Contains mature themes.

Story
Beau was devastated. After the worst day of his life, Caleb, the kindhearted and beautiful man he loved, had left him for good. Beau was now at the end of his rope - and the bottom of his last bottle. With trouble following him everywhere he went, he guessed it was only a matter of time before he turned into his messed-up dad, alone and yearning for a love he foolishly let slip through his fingers.

Story
It's the number one rule in this beach town: don't fall for a tourist. But Jonah Lachlan isn't like any tourist I've ever met. He's not here for a good time, that much is obvious. In fact, the brooding, boy-next-door cutie is clearly hell-bent on being miserable. Though he's here with his best friend, he doesn't seem interested in hook-ups. Or fun. The guy brought a book to this beach full of gorgeous single gay men, for crying out loud. Who does that?? And as if he couldn't be any more confusing, he seems superhumanly immune to anyone who flirts with him. Myself included.

I'm completely infatuated with Byron, the gorgeous, tight-shirted barista at the coffee shop on the corner. But he doesn't even know my name. That's probably because I can't seem to form a sentence in front of him without stammering like a total loser. I obviously need help.

Charles Preston Carmichael is the most infuriating man I've ever met. I want to sock the golden boy of college hockey right in the mouth. He enjoys telling me everything I'm messing up—publicly. And since he's my roommate for the next year, I can't avoid him. Yet there's something about him that makes me watch him. Something dark. A secret I want to uncover. When he returns from a weekend away, broken and haunted, I can't keep my distance anymore. He needs someone, and I'll be damned if it's not me.

When it comes to hockey, I'm all about the game. I've worked for years to be one of the best in the league, and l've done it without splashing my orientation all over the tabloids. My hockey image is one I've carefully cultivated, and after one night with Ezra Palaszczuk, I risk it all. He's cocky, obnoxious, and has an ego bigger than Massachusetts. And okay, maybe he's the sexiest man I've ever known. We'll never get along. Not when we sleep together. Not even when my possessive streak awakens. That doesn't stop us from falling into bed together over and over again.

Buying a house was supposed to be a good investment. Too bad I bit off more than I can chew. Between my job at the bank and my utter lack of home improvement skills, I’m in way over my head. Then a friend suggests I hire a handyman. Enter Tyler. Tyler is down on his luck after a recent divorce, and we strike a deal that he fixes my house while I give him room and board as part of his pay. He’s the perfect roommate, amazing at his job, and he quickly becomes one of my closest friends. But there’s something there, something I’ve never felt for another man before.

And ditch the gray sweatpants. And not leave his door ajar when he’s in compromising positions...

The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her.

What is The Bachelor Society? It's a gentleman's club - like the dignified men of the past used to have. Except, we're not gentleman, and we’re not dignified. We're ineligible bachelors; bored, jaded and not looking for relationships. Quite the opposite actually.... We're so committed to being single, we've created a high stakes bet to see who can remain single the longest. Rules are involved. Prizes. Laugh it up, but I'm no loser.

Now, all these years later, he was back - and wanting me the way I'd always longed for him. Except now, I belonged to someone else. Someone who never left me the way Josh had. I figured that was the end of our story. I couldn't alter the past. I didn't want to rewrite my future.

Also not supposed to be here? An unexpected delivery of chickens. Finn Barnes knows chickens. The burly organic farmer knows all about rare breed poultry, but dealing with a hot older bookseller is an entirely different matter. City-slicker types like Harrison never end up staying in Vermont for the long-term. They should steer clear of each other. But the flare of attraction is mutual.

I’m the type of girl who’s given up on fairy tales. So when Beck – the hot new busboy at work - starts flirting with me, I know better than to get my hopes up. Happily ever afters aren’t for the average. I learned that the hard way. But how can I be expected to resist a man who can quote Austen, loves making me laugh, and seems to be everything hot and good in this world? Only there’s so much more to him than that. Billionaire playboy? Check. Troubled soul? Check.

Story
The night we met in the dimly lit bar, she looked like a brunette bombshell, and I wanted to learn her deepest secrets. With sun-kissed skin and soulful bedroom eyes, she was pure temptation, and I was mesmerized. As one drink led to two, I craved more of her playful banter and taunting lips. Resisting her wasn't an option, and we quickly became a desperate mess of tangled limbs and hot kisses. She tasted like the sweetest sin, but I was no saint.

Carter Beckett is the NHL’s resident bad boy, top player both on the ice and in the bedroom, and quite possibly the sexiest man to ever grace my field of vision. But worst of all? He knows it. He’s arrogant, self-centered, and the man doesn’t seem to know what a filter is, let alone how to use one. He’s had everything served to him on a silver platter, including endless strings of women, and apparently, I’m up next. I have the solution to all my sexual frustrations in a drawer at home, and it’s far less complicated than Carter Beckett.

I saw her first. Blonde. Gorgeous. Feisty. I was smitten. But it didn’t matter because she chose him, and he was my best friend and roommate. I’d never be able to compete with that, so I pushed her away instead. It was easy when she lived hours away, and I didn’t have to see her every day, but then she moved in with us. Now, I’m screwed. From her singing in the shower every morning, dancing in the kitchen while she makes coffee, and doing yoga in our living room, I can’t stop thinking about her in all the wrong ways.

In fact, the brooding, boy-next-door cutie is clearly hell-bent on being miserable. Though he's here with his best friend, he doesn't seem interested in hook-ups. Or fun. The guy brought a book to this beach full of gorgeous single gay men, for crying out loud. Who does that?? And as if he couldn't be any more confusing, he seems superhumanly immune to anyone who flirts with him. Myself included.

Being an identical twin doesn't come without issues. No one can tell us apart, not even our parents sometimes. We don't usually use that to our advantage, but it comes in handy when my brother needs help breaking up with his boyfriends - which happens more than I'd care to admit. I know it's enabling him, but I can't say no to Anders. I will do anything for my twin. The breakups always go the same; they're swift and simple. Until Reed. When I give in to temptation, it's not because he's a guy. It's because he thinks I'm my brother, and I can't bring myself to tell him the truth.

A must listen!
This is easily my favorite Daryl Banner book. The cover is gorgeous. The audiobook narration is perfect. The characters and story are interesting and well written.
This is a story of grief and sibling relationships and finding oneself and unconditional love. The drama comes from outside of the romantic relationship which I always appreciate, especially with a story that has a lot of moving parts. Charlie is an absolute rock for both Matthew and Helen. I love the way he loves Matthew! Matthew’s “voice” and sass make for a hilarious narration, even during the heavier parts of the book. His journey through dealing with the death of his parents felt real and authentic. And he is so open with his emotions; gotta love a man who can be vulnerable.
I highly recommend. I loved it from start to finish.

I so want all of Daryl’s books get made into a movie, but uncensored (of course). The story was good, the love story was moving and touching, and the erotic element was FIRE!

THIS is one of my favorites
Sometimes when go to pick my next book I have to try and make sure in my mind I haven't already read it (I read a lot, so yes this happens). This particular book has actually stuck with me to the point that I think about it while reading other books. I compare little things that happen in them and think back to how this book portrayed a similar scene and this one always sounds better. The narrator's voice enhanced this book and it is probably what helped it to truly stay with me. The story is so different, super hot, and also very, very sweet. I have been making my way through the author's other books and when I am finished there, I plan to search out other books this narrator has done.

Absolutely Hilarious
This is by far the funniest Audiobook Daryl Banner ever wrote and I think I read all of them. Narrated by the talented Chris Chambers who makes it fun to listen, not sure how does it to get the different character voices sound so believable. I just wish Daryl would write more amusing books like this.

This one grabs you from the get go
If you were ever young and gay this is you or someone that was close to you. My dear friend Pablo is Mathew in real life. He is all of us and the decisions we make and lives we lead, the story is so good you can't put it down in places. There are parts that are cringe worthy for the writing of the characters actions. And parts that are too repetitive. Though overall a great read.

Ferocious, Intense, Non-Fairytale, and those places in between.
I liked the writing immensely, it dragged me through parts of the book and topics I wasn’t exactly prepared for.
I snapped this up as free by an author I admire, and probably for the first time in my life didn’t comb the reviews.
So, look. Trigger warnings from a reader. A main character has a substance abuse problem. There is grief, death, and many other kinds of loss. I can’t actually focus enough to give a good list, and some might count as spoilers.
There are many positives, things which made me grin ear to ear, and for something I found listed as a romance, with the typical model on the cover, this was _rough_ (warning: it’s not an easy escape-type of book for those dealing with, well, death, job loss, grief, denial, economic difference, borderline sexual harassment or homophobia at work, impulse control-you get me? That’s not all. It’s all I can type.) Good thing I knew Daryl Banner wrote in many genres, including dystopian.
Is this book all gloom? Nah. It’s bright, shiny, jumps forward in time, switches up styles and has fun with some best-seller formats. I won’t lie and say that like some shiny things it doesn’t have sharp edges.
Was it *romantic*? Hell, yeah. Was it too sharp or too real in places? Not exactly. It was real enough to say it’s not escapist, even if the time skips don’t drown the reader in the really difficult stuff. *He leaves that to our minds.* Which may or may not be a good thing. The author guides us in a loving direction, but depending on where you are in life, those gaps may haunt you a bit, if you have those things called feelings.
This isn’t meant to scare you off. I don’t write a lot of reviews, and this book might be considered ‘light’ by some people I’ve dealt with. I don’t think it is. It is, however, very loving, very kind. Even (or especially) to the reader.
In an entirely non-sexual way I will say the number of real raw life problems which showed up left me what my grandpa would call “rode hard and put away wet” (it’s about horses, cut it out). On the topic of sex, this has plenty of positive sex in it.
It’s not where I’d go *only* for a quick thrill unless you’re jaded.
So well yeah. I’m wrung out over going into this with assumptions I shouldn’t have made. It was worth the ride.
Damn, the man can write in a playful off-center way and leave me saying thanks for punching me in the gut along the way. Your mileage may differ. It’s quite a book.

The narration was spot on for me, and that’s not an easy job to start with. Add the book’s style of moving quickly from thoughts to dialogue and it’s a grueling task. There were only a couple of times that I wondered if something had been said out loud, though. I was impressed overall.

OMG! I LOVE THE HELL OUT OF THIS STORY!
"Rasing Hell," was all the way on point. I fell in love with Mathew. I found myself answering his questions, and totally laughing at the words that kept coming out of his mouth. Mathew was hilarious. I totally enjoyed the way Mr. Daryl Banner wrote this story allowing Mathew's character to speak to the listener. It showed his creative side as an amazing author. Mr. Chris Chambers did an amazing job narrating the whole story. Also, his voice for Mathew brought the interaction with the character to the forefront. All of the characters did their part in making this story come to life. I highly recommend,"Rasing Hell," you will not be disappointed. ENJOY!

I had to hear it twice
The beginning of the book , is slow. But midway into it , the book gets really good. The love story is beautiful, and the parents saw what I did in the main character

Best story
I’ve listened to many of Daryl’s stories - and this is by far the best one he’s written. I cried pretty much the last 3 chapters. So wonderfully written - so eloquently read. This could and should be made into a movie.
And Chris’ voice — I can’t say what that does to me. ❤️
