About this listen
Gideon Ellery had the perfect life. Nice house, great job, and a long-time boyfriend. Weeks after adopting his nephew, his boyfriend splits, leaving Gideon a single father to a newborn. Overwhelmed, sleep deprived, and unsure how to navigate fatherhood, he’s asked to return to the office. He’s overwhelmed and at his breaking point.
Toby Barlow is back in Sydney after three years of studying, travelling, and nannying in the UK. He needs work and a place to live, and the perfect solution drops in his lap. After all, caring for a sweet baby in a beautiful home owned by a gorgeous single man isn’t exactly terrible.
Gideon isn’t too keen to share his life with a stranger, but his need for help is too great. Sunshiny Toby isn’t prepared for a grumpy Gideon or his utterly adorable son, Benson. Or how easily he slots into their lives. And Gideon’s not prepared for how much he needs Toby.
Or how much he wants him.
Neither is prepared for the complications of falling in love.

Being invited to my cousin’s wedding really shouldn’t be a big deal except, oh yeah, I haven't seen my family for a decade. My parents turned their backs on me, and I’ve done everything since to become successful and show them what they've lost. Only it’s kinda hard to be a success when you’re a walking trainwreck.

A fun and sexy romance where the kiln isn't the only thing that's scorching hot. Leo Secombe loves his life, and he's convinced himself he's happy to be single. In his spare time, he keeps himself busy at a local LGBTQ centre that pairs a younger person with a community elder to help them feel included in today's rainbow family. Leo and Clyde have been buddies for a few years now, and signing up for a pottery class seems like fun. Merrick Bowman has been so focused on getting his pottery business up and running that he's forgotten how to date. How to live, even.

Conor: It starts with a drunken text pic. The kind I would normally never send. Only, instead of it going to the flirty hotel bartender, it goes to some random stranger who actually responds. Wells: The first thing I notice about Conor Newell when he sits down in my high-rise conference room is how delightfully nervous he is. Then I see his tie. The same geeky tie that’s held hostage on my phone. The one that belongs to my anonymous late-night texter. And it changes everything.

The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

A sweet yet sexy read.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Story: This story is about a nanny and the father of the kiddo he watches falling in love and it was super sweet and romantic. It’s very much a story of meeting the right person at the right time. I loved how much Gideon and Toby adored and respected each other. I had a big smile on my face as they got to know each other and developed all the feelings for each other. I’m not always a fan of kids in books, but baby Benson was a sweetheart, and it was wonderful to see how much he’s loved by Gideon, Toby, and his found family (made up of several great side characters and Toby’s wacky but loving family). This is the perfect book to pick up when you need something light and lovely!
Loved it!

This is the second book by this author, I don’t feel compelled to read more. I judge the success of the narrator and story on if I can listen again. I have tried, the answer is no. There is no part of this story I cared to hear again - it was a one and done. Did I find it overall enjoyable? Enough to give it an overall 4 stars, considering the genre, and a nod to the amusing mother character.
I would recommend this title over The Weight of it All - a book I really wanted to love. This title is more successful as it stays within common tropes, the weight loss story feels more wishful thinking.
This is my second experience with this duo, it’s okay

Quick, cutesy listen

I don’t get baby fever, but GAH!, this really is the cutest story. Gideon is such a fantastic human being who is in over his head (as a new single parent is bound to be), and despite feeling like he needs to do it all, realizes he’s going to need help.
Enter Toby, nanny extraordinaire, who is the most delightful person. Sunny, optimistic, and such an amazing support for Gideon. Not just by doing the work, but by reassuring him and helping to steady him.
Also, Toby’s family … *chef’s kiss* I’m so happy Gideon found a whole extended family in Toby. This little family they’ve created is a dream and makes me a little gooey inside.
And let's talk about Glen Lloyd’s narration. That man is such a perfect pairing for NR Walker, does an outstanding job on this story. The voices, the timing, the characterizations, all perfect. I may also have a major crush on him, that voice…sigh.
This is absolutely one of those stories that I’d want to reread/relisten to when you need a pick me up.
Perfection

if you've ever had undercooked food or bacteria in your food. You've been warned.
I wouldn't wish that suffering on anyone, both for real or fictional. Now that I think, about it. one of the main protagonists, the mother, her actions! more disturbing now after the fact. then I did at the time. So much so, I'm putting it in here.
Overall the storyline is compelling enough to be a nice distraction. That's good it's cute. The storyline doesn't pretend to be anything more than what it's is. It's a cute distraction.
it was good.

🎧 Glen Lloyd suits the characters and he continues to improve with every book he performs. I had no problem distinguishing characters, and his rhythm, tone and inflections have bought the characters to life.
Overall an easy and enjoyable listen for a lazy Sunday.

2.5 stars for the story.
I would have said this one may have been better kept in the drafts but then I would have missed out on the tiny bit of Henry and Reed we get in it. Honestly that was the best part of the story.
Not one of her best...
