About this listen

Having a meltdown in the local hardware store isn't the best way to find the man of your dreams. Or is it?

Brennan Taylor is at the end of his rope, and the busted pipe under his kitchen sink was the last straw. He knows nothing about plumbing, or any of the other things his father says a grown man should know, but lucky for him, he is about to lose it in front of the perfect man to help him.

Ryder Davis didn't go to the hardware store intending to play hero. He went after a new faucet for his bathroom. But when he saw the angel in the plumbing aisle, it was obvious Brennan needed someone to step in and fix things for him. No problem, saving a beautiful man in distress was something Ryder was happy to do.

Fixing Brennan's plumbing turns into fixing his employment situation, and then right on to fixing his single status. But will Brennan's determination to be the kind of man he thinks he is supposed to be keep him from being the boy a Daddy like Ryder needs?

Contains mature themes.

Never underestimate a short-ish story.

This is all the things I didn’t know I needed. It’s hot, easy, found family- just perfect for the holidays. Not that there is holiday themes but I’m listening during the holidays.

Kirt- as always you are stunning!!!

Never disappoints!

Narration was well done and really fit well with the story. The dynamic between Ryder and Brennan was sweet and their connection developed in a way that felt authentic without a lot of angst. I look forward to listening to the rest of the series.

Wonderful narration for sweet, low angst romance

Having read this with my eyes, I knew how the story was going to play out, but even still, I enjoyed this one.

This starts with a meet cute in the plumbing aisle and ends with Brennan learning that depending on someone is ok sometimes.

Kirt did a great job with all the voices except for Ryder's, but it wasn't enough to take me out of the story.

Oh Daddy...

Kirt Graves did a beautiful job in making these men more real and relatable where you honestly feel you know them as real people by the end. With each person's pov you are able to easily tell whose talking.

Not all daddy boy relationships are the same, and I love the way Jacki shows this in each of her books. Brennan & Ryder don't just dive in they see what works for them and interrogate that into their lives. They support and build each other up so they can be their best selves. Ryder has an amazing set of fellow daddy friends who encourage him to take the step into trying out this relationship. Along the way, Brennan gets a new bestie to reach out to with any questions. I hope that his bestie finds his daddy too, cause yeah, his 'straight' best friend would settle beautifully into this lifestyle. I'm looking forward to more from this series of hard-working Daddies finding their perfect match.

I love romance books like this, and recently I've missed the light heartedness of some good books. This is exactly what I needed. Also my first read by this author and narrator.
The narration is really good. And I love Daddy/ Boy books. The story is well written and enjoyable. A little short, lol, but nothing bad to say about anything.

Exactly what I needed!

This truly absolutely nailed the characters of the book. All of the interactions were perfect, even the minor characters that we don't see in the other stories. Ryder and Brennan are perfect but the narration truly brings them to life. I truly hope the rest of the series gets narration

Absolutely enhanced a book I already loved

It was too simple a story. The only conflict is will they be together. It was too short and fluffy for me. Not enough substance for the price. More like a novella with how little there was to it.

Not enough
