Levity works the streets of Welcome Boulevard, begging people for money. It keeps food in his belly, a leaky roof over his head, and he gets to do it with his best friend, Clove. No, it's not the ideal life, but he does what he must to survive.
Salvatore Grillo is a man who is used to getting what he wants. He's a loyal brother to his autistic sister, runs numerous business empires, and knows how to make people to bend to his will. It's not often someone comes along and shakes things up.
Levity's idea to pull in more money draws Salvatore's attention, and while being the focus of a crime boss should be terrifying, Levity is intrigued by the man. Not to mention, Sal is as gorgeous as he is powerful. The two gravitate toward one another and soon are wrapped up tightly in each other's worlds. When enemies try to break through their doors and their lives, Salvatore has to do everything in his power to save not just himself but Levity too.
Not knowing who is behind all the chaos or when they will strike makes their happily ever after almost impossible. Time's running out for Sal and Levity. Will they survive, or will their story end before it's even begun?
Contains mature themes.

As it so often goes when reviewing audios I can't think of anything new to add to my original that goes into expressing my love of the story. I can't believe it's been over 2 years since I experienced Levity, and yes I said "experience" not just "read" because that is what Davidson King delivers: a story to be experienced, a story you get so caught up in you feel like you are living it not just reading it. Alexander Cendese and Philip Alces helps further that experience by giving voice to the characters of Welcome Boulevard.
I rarely, and by "rarely" I mean 99.9999% never listen to an audio without reading beforehand. Mostly because I listen as I work in the kitchen or on the computer and can zone out no matter how much I'm loving the story my mind will focus on what I'm doing at times. By reading the story first I haven't lost the plot and don't have to spend 30 minutes trying to find where I last tuned in. Zoning out on my part has nothing to do with the narration it's just how my mind works sometimes😉.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, the top(and only really) point on my checklist when reviewing audios is comparing it to old radio shows that I collect from the 30s, 40s, and 50s. Not comparing in plot but in pull, how it sucks you into the story, playing out in the same way families were entertained before the advent of television, making the listener see it without actual visuals. Cendese and Alces knocked this point out of the park, I was seriously expecting Harlow Wilcox or Don Wilson to interrupt with the sponsor's ad.
They Call Him Levity is just as amazing as it was in 2021. One last shout out to the author: I never thought of dual narration for audiobook before I listened to Davidson King's Snow Falling, the first in her Haven Hart universe, but after it really has become my favorite actually. Single narrators are awesome and probably have an even harder job but there is something special about dual that makes a story pop and perhaps that circles back to my love of old radio shows with a full cast but whatever it is I want to thank Davidson King for introducing me to it.
Original Review November Book of the Month 2021:
WOWZER! WOWZER! WOWZER! OHMYGOD!OHMYGOD!OHMYGOD!OHMYGOD! HOLY HANNAH BATMAN! and a hundred other phrases and exclamation points that say one thing: HOLY CRAP KING'S DONE IT AGAIN!!!
Okay, now that I got my blood pumping under control I'll continue.
Being a member of the author's Facebook group I've seen her talking and posting about They Call Him Levity for awhile now but I'll be honest, I never actually read any of her Tuesday Teaser posts because I knew it would make the wait for release that much harder. Davidson King did not disappoint. My anticipation may have been high which can be a little scary as there is always a chance of not standing up to one's hopes but I was 99% sure that wouldn't be the case as King has quickly become one of my absolute favorite authors and her knack for storytelling has always outshined my imagination.
Salvatore and Levity are wonderful together, from their first meet you know it's going to be a bumpy ride but also an incredibly entertaining journey. Levity just has a way about him that you know people gravitate towards him and in doing so he'll never be completely alone. Salvatore's love for his sister lets you know that he'll do whatever he needs to to keep those he loves safe. When you put that kind of devotion together, it's never going to be unwelcomed or boring. That level of chemistry, not only for each other but those around them is what makes this story burrow in to your heart.
They Call Him Levity has pretty much everything but science fiction, post-apocalypse, and the kitchen sink. There is drama, romance, friendship, heat, mystery, love, action, passion, and of course plenty of heart. Will Welcome Boulevard replace Haven Hart at the top of my Davidson King shelf in my reading psyche? Time will tell, personally I can't see it quite quenching that level of storytelling hunger within me although if I'm being honest it most likely be so close that it will come down to the fact that Haven Hart came first and nothing can quite top your original introduction to an author's work. But boy do I look forward to the trials and tribulations of those on Welcome Boulevard and I got a feeling there will be lots of mayhem lurking on every corner.
Great narration to give voice to an amazing read
