About this listen
Fletcher
I’m a total nerd, but I look like a jock. I had a perfect GPA in high school, and my GPA in college is perfect too. I smile when I’m supposed to smile. I have two loving parents and a brother and sister who are always by my side. I’m the perfect all-American guy.
But the only thing that actually defines me is the before. The things I keep hidden deep inside because I’m too afraid of losing what I have now.
The past lives deep inside me as I force the plastic smile on my face. And no one sees through it because I’m just that good.
No one except . . . him.
Ronan
Every day is like a dream. A dream I live, not knowing when I’ll wake and find I’m still living in a nightmare.
I never made it out, and these past few years have all been fake.
Then he walks into my classroom . . . with that cocky smile in place. Not a care in the world. I doubt he’s ever had to worry about a thing in his entire life.
He's exactly like all of the entitled, spoiled brats I teach every day in my part of the college campus, but something about Fletcher Moore really rubs me the wrong way.
I shouldn’t let him get to me, but something about him makes me too angry. Too annoyed.
Just too damn . . . hostile.

The locals treat Dad like royalty, while Dad vacillates between open anger and flat-out ignoring me. Throw in my messy relationship with my brothers, and being in Birchbark becomes unbearable.

As the former mayor of Smoky Vale, I hinged my campaign on getting rid of all bikers. They are everything that's wrong with our town. Everywhere they go they breed crudeness, chaos, and carnage. Then my son fell in love with not one, but two of them. Now I have no choice but to interact with the very people I tried to take down. My disapproval of their lifestyle wavers when a spawn of Goliath backs me into a wall, kisses me senselessly, and makes it clear in the most vulgar way possible what he wants to do to me.

Story
What’s a straight guy to do when he accidentally goes on a date with his brand new gym-bro? Offer to be the best wingman ever, of course! It’s foolproof. Joey needs a man? I’ll find him one. He wants someone who looks, well, kind of like me? No problem! Not into watersports? I’ve got him covered. The issue is, going on all these dates with Joey makes me realize I want more of his time to be spent with me. I like the guy. And his smile. And the way he makes me feel like anything is possible.

Sometimes I want to punch that smirk off Atlas McCallister's pretty face. He's cocky. A troublemaker. A pain. And, unfortunately, my stepbrother. We've been fire and kerosene since our parents got together, and to keep from exploding into fistfights, we've used challenges, dares, and bets to battle out our differences. Our past bets have been a little inappropriate—scandalous, even—but Atlas's latest bet has gone too far. Do I really believe if he loses, my straight stepbrother is gonna mess around with a guy? And not just any guy: me, his rival and nemesis?

I’m living the dream by playing professional hockey, and I have some amazing friends. I’m happy. Really, I am. Or at least I’m trying to be. Until the night I run into Luca.

Playing a lead role in a book-to-movie adaptation with a wild fan base? Sign me up! The only downside is that I'm cast alongside Jacoby "Heartthrob" Hart—Hollywood's golden boy. If only they knew he was an uppity, pompous snob. We don't get along, and if you're reading the tabloids, you'd assume it was because I "stole" his girlfriend, but they have it all wrong. Jacoby and his cold shoulder started this, and now we're set to play lovers. The only thing I'd love to do is strangle him, but I'm a professional.

Is it wrong that I watch him? Leif Anderson seems like a friendly, kind, normal, boy-next-door type. Unlike me. His stalker, a creep who moved into the place next to his parents’ house to keep an eye on him. I’m not the bad guy, though. I’m the one who will protect him. The cops don’t believe he’s in danger. Maybe they’re right, and this is all in my messed-up head. I’ve been wrong before. And no matter how I justify this to myself, my motives aren’t entirely pure.

I'm the starting quarterback for the Portland Pirates, and I have a thing for my son's teacher. Except I didn't know the cute blond on the beach with the giant dog was my kid's teacher until two months later at Open House. Christian took my breath away during my vacation and introduced me to things I never knew could feel so good and be so right. I think he just might be the one who inspires me to tell the world that this NFL quarterback is bisexual and in love with a man.

Failing to make it in pro ball left me absolutely devastated. Baseball has been my life, my dream, but it’s time to move on. Becoming a sports agent was always my back-up plan, and now that I’m interning at the biggest queer-focused firm in the country, I’m doing my best not to let my bitterness toward baseball affect my future. That’s really difficult when I’m assigned to babysit Kelley Afton, hotshot rookie pitcher for Philly. He has everything I ever wanted, and he doesn’t even appreciate it. I didn’t become an agent so I could soothe the ego of diva athletes.

Story
I'm the rebel, the bad one. I follow no rules on the track or anywhere else. I'm the obnoxious bad boy the fans secretly root for. I don't mind playing my role. I'm good at it, and it pays to be the dark to his light. Until the good boy starts to get to me. I'm confused and unsure of what I want, when it was all so clear before. They say good always wins, but is that truly the case? In the race between the far-too-pretty good boy and the angry bad boy, who will actually win?

Welcome to Big Bend—my nightmare and my home, all in one. I don't fit in here. I don't fit in anywhere. I've made so many mistakes. Over and over. Two of those mistakes haunt me. One, being responsible for a friend losing his job and reputation in this town. And two, well, that one is even worse. I ruined so many lives with one stupid decision I barely even remember. And now, I'm going to pay for it.

Trapped in nightmares from my past, the only comfort I find is in gifts from the man who killed my mother's killer—presents wrapped in a body bag and delivered to the morgue for me to examine. From the first time I saw his mark, I knew I had to keep my killer safe, had to keep his work a secret for me and me alone. Every body is a love letter, and I'm the only one who can read them.

The emo kid, the loner, the cynical wallflower with an attitude. It's no secret that I've never quite fit in. But it's glaringly obvious now that I've moved to this Podunk small town that seems to run entirely on sugar, friendliness, and cheer. (And cows, an ungodly number of cows.) I hate it—this place where everyone knows everyone, and I'm still the outsider. Who wants to fit in anyway? I've never really tried, never even thought I wanted to…until I met him. Jimbob is living his best life out here, farming the fields of Kansas, well and truly happy. And I just don't get it.

When I’m running on fumes while driving on what feels like the loneliest stretch of road in California, I worry I’m in trouble. Luckily, I happen upon Aqua Vista, a sleepy coastal town with the only pump for miles, and the grumpy owner who is more gorgeous than he has any right to be. When I’m told I’ll need more than fuel to disable the check engine light on my dash, I figure there are worse places to be stuck while my car gets needed repairs.

Love the found family trope
When I first read To Hostile I hoped we would get Fletcher's story. I couldn't wait and it did not disappoint.
Fletcher and Ronan were so perfect for each other. Their I loved their chemistry and I loved the way they were drawn to each other and couldn't stay away. Fletcher was set on having his professor and he had to be a little persistent before Ronan stopped fighting his attraction and gave in. I loved their story.

Enjoyed this story more than book 1!
I know these technically are standalone romances but they are interconnected so I am calling this one book #2 (book #1 being Hostile). I LOVE student/teacher tropes and this one was perfect! We get to learn more about Fletcher and his background in the foster care system and his trauma and how that has shaped him. He is a secret genius and puts on a fake persona to hide his sadness and feeling alone in the world besides his adopted family. I thought he felt older than his 18 years old but the author made it a point to mention a couple of times that he has gone through more than any 18 year old should have to, so he was a different kind of 18. It made sense with how he had to keep up and stand up to Ronan (who I believe I 26 years old, so only 7-8 years age gap).
I felt for Ronan too, I was getting frustrated with him but after learning his trauma as well and how important his job was to him and the thought behind his actions it made way more sense. I thought he sounded sexy from the get-go and could totally understand why Fletcher couldn't stop from falling for him. I loved seeing his confidence come out more as the book went on. How he wanted to take care of Fletch but they ended up taking care of each other. I loved when he called him baby too. I thought the steam between these two was incredible. I liked the progression and making sure everyone was comfortable and then they reciprocated things and I was like YES PLEASE GIVE ME MORE hahaha.
The side characters were on point in this one too, not surprising since I always end up loving them in every book of this author's I have devoured in the last year. More info on Bree and her life, get some cameos of Rhett and Grayson. I loved the sibling moments and bonding activities haha. I loved how they were such a seamless family. Their parents were a hoot, I loved getting more of them and seeing more of their personality come through. I enjoyed Ronan's work bestie and how observant she was. I imagine she said yes to Fletch because of how smart and hardworking he could be but also because she could see the chemistry and the "doth protest too much" with Ronan denying Fletch's TA proposal and giving him crap for being the rich kid who gets everything (which he later finds out is because of how he was raised with nothing and now is being spoiled by his adopted mom to make up for everything).
I was shaking my head at Ronan and his stuck in his ways but glad Fletch and his mom got involved and made so it would work out. I so hope we get a book from Bree and her unknown love life!
Narration was not as strong in this one as it was in book #1 (Hostile). I don't think the narrators did a great job with the opposite sex (one was better than the other). They made them sound whiney and grating on my ears. Also some of the previous characters /side characters sounded VERY different between the 2 books which I understand they won't be exact, but people who didn't have accents in book 1 now have some odd accents haha. That's why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars for narration (and ultimately the overall book rating).
Definitely recommended this series of interconnected standalone contemporary M/M romances. I think if I had to choose between the 2 I like this one more than book 1. If you love MM this one is perfect for you and will keep you entertained with their antics and self-discovery <3

Bad Narration
While I enjoy Nicole’s books, I’ve been disappointed in the choice of narrators for the audio versions. I took a chance on Too Hostile because I enjoyed the book version. Sad to say, I am disappointed again. The narrators voices sound way to old for the characters. Especially Ronan’s narrator. He sounded more like jaded middle aged teacher than a 26 year old young man. I wonder if it’s a matter of narrator fees or if the author even gets to pick the narrator? A narrator makes or breaks the story and these two do not do the story any favors IMO.

Book 2
So, I normally don't do same sex romance reads but I loved the idea of a nerd who looks like a jock and tries to be all things to all people with a secret. While this was well narrated, for me I think it just came thru a bit too repetitive. Also, the forbidden aspect came thru as been there, done that didn't feel original in the least. There were also some cringey moments that just really made this audio experience less than ideal. Overall, I think the concept was there and obviously several people enjoyed it, I sadly wasn't one of them on this read / listen.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.
*this review is based on the audio version of this read.

This is another amazing book by Nicole Dykes. This book can be read as a standalone but I suggest to read after Hostile. This is Fletcher and Ronan’s book. Ronan and Fletcher have similar childhood experiences. They both were in and out of foster homes. Fletcher found an amazing family with Blair and Rhys.
Lance Insley and Elliot Sands did a great job narrating this book.

Fletcher and Ronan…
3.5 stars
Too Hostile is a forced proximity, M/M, forbidden, age gap romance. This was a cute, fun, quick read. It was easy to read with all of the feels. You get banter, frustration, and great chemistry. It was overall a good read.
Lance Isley and Elliott Sands did a great job with these characters.

Excellent Story & Listen🎧Riveting & Heartfelt!
Nicole Dykes pens another wonderful romance novel, a grump/sunshine, professor/student forbidden romance, an original story that captivates your attention and tugs at your heartstrings the entire time. The world building, character growth and development are fantastic. Fletcher Moore is in college and one of his professors is not very fond of him, and he does not know why. Ronin thinks Fletcher is nothing but a privileged kid riding his parents’ coattails, but he could not have been more wrong. The two bonked heads, and Ronin kept his distance as much as possible, but then he learns who Fletcher really is, the man behind the front he puts up and one with a backstory very similar to his own. I adored Fletcher so much, who he was as a person, his wit, his determination, and his love for his family. I did not appreciate Ronin’s judgement of Fletcher or his assuming and jumping to conclusions. But he sees the errors of his ways and redeems himself somewhat, and after hearing his backstory, I understood him more and where he was coming from. I loved all the layers of the story, a well-written and plotted story that has the perfect balance of drama, angst, heartwarming moments, heartfelt emotions, and a steamy romance. Nicole Dykes, thank you for another fantastic story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧 Lance Isley and Elliott Sands did a great job bringing these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had your feeling them all. These two voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thanks for the terrific listen.
