About this listen

He hates that he wants me.

Stone

Just the sight of Nico ‘Stix’ Jamieson makes me want to hurt something. Between his stupid smiles on that annoyingly handsome face and the constant drumming of anything that makes a sound with those drumsticks of his, I want to throttle him. No one is that happy. I don’t trust it. Even when my hate for him is clear, he throws it back in my face with a smile and wave. And how he loves to push my buttons when he’s feeling especially obnoxious. If I hate him, then why am I obsessed with him?

Stix

Damien ‘Stone’ Sloan hates me. I have no idea what I did to the guy. Despite being gorgeous, he scares me a little. He’s bigger than me, and I have doubts he even knows how to smile. I have to put on a brave face and show how much he doesn’t affect me. Fine, I like to tease him a little too much. I probably have some death wish. But underneath all those growls and scowls is fear and pain. You can see it when his walls come down, even if it’s for a second. Everything in me wants to peek over those walls and see what’s really behind them. I’m invested now. Who are you, Stone?

Fantastic story and narration

Stix (Nico) & Stone (Damien) are two incredible characters. Their story is like a road map through abuse, tragedy, and heartbreak to reach a place of acceptance, happiness, and love.

Courtney has done a fantastic job bringing Stix & Stone to life. The different queer representation in the book is very well done. Also, there are many levels of mental health rep and struggles written with great care and obvious authenticity. Watching these characters move through these is simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming.

Harley Chase's narration is flawlessly spectacular. He gives distinct voice to each character in a way that is easily recognized and filled with emotion. Harley's voice acting is amazing and I look forward to future stories narrated by him.

If you enjoy a diverse love story between two people who must work for their HEA, and have it told in stunning narration, get this audiobook!

Giving In to the Good Emotions!

Stone's emotions control him. They are at the surface and good or bad they are just ready to come out. For the most part they are bad, and this only makes him think worse about himself. He needs to get beyond his anger and his abusive past. Adding to this he is agitated and confused by his feelings for Stix. I loved that despite being able to see all that, Stix still enjoys poking at Stone. This story is very raw and real, but we do get the lighter side of things as Stone slowly opens up to the happiness that is being with Stix. I felt like I experienced all the hardships of being forced to grow up too fast and do it without the love, comfort and stability we all sometimes tend to take for granted. Harley Chase did a great job narrating. He brought out all the personalities and different emotions at just the right level.

Stix & Stone 💛

It’s a beautiful read. Yes, it has its angst moments, but I love how the author focuses on each character’s mental health and shows us how they navigate life. In this first book, we see that Stone has a small conflict with Stix because he sees him as someone who is too carefree, always laughing, and that bothers him. It irritates him that Stix is such a free spirit, living without worries, especially since Stone carries a past that keeps him from enjoying life.
However, Stix’s life isn’t all sunshine and rainbows either. Stix and Stone learn from each other and gradually build a relationship. I love the mutual support they give each other and the sweet moments they share, as well as the found family they create. They realize that family isn’t always about blood, it’s about the people who make you feel safe and loved.

My Sweet Stix and Stone

Oh how I love these boys. I have read this book twice and lisented to the audible for the first time and fell in love with my boys all over again. I absolutely love this series and cant recommend it enough. There is so many different emotions in this book. One minute I am laughing the next crying. Just the my perfect type of book. Ready for my other boys to get their audible books up.

Brought it to life

I love the story of Stix and Stone.

I didn't know I needed the audio version until I listened to it.

It brought life to the troubled Stone and his arch-enemy, Stix. The complex relationship playing out in real time with a narrator that brought his heart and soul into the game was worth the wait.

I can't wait for Nacho and Pippin

So Good!

Stix and Stone are polar opposites. At first glance, Stix is sunshine, smiles, and punny t-shirts. This irritates Stone to no end. Stone, due to his past, puts on a stony front. He keeps to himself, lets no one in, and barely keeps it together. He claims to hate Stix, but there’s a thin line, and slowly he begins to realize that he’s been repressing his feelings.

Stix, despite seeming to have it together, has a lot going on in his life too. Abandoned by his father, he keeps people at arms length as well.

Stix and Stone circle one another, but will they let each other in? Both have ghosts and trauma, and I absolutely loved their story!! They helped one another to grow, and now I need to know the rest of the Alpha’s Rejects stories!!

I also adored Harley Chase’s narration. SO SO good!

Amazing story brought to life!

I love the Alpha’s Rejects series. Stix and Stone is amazing story of making the best of your situation but also having dreams. It’s enemies to lovers. Harley Chase brought these Characters to life, and quickly becoming one of my favorite narrators; that voice is ugh sooo good.
