About this listen

Life hasn’t been good to Jeb Birchman. When he attempted to escape his abusive, zealot father, he found himself on the streets, making a living the only way he knew how, the victim of more violent men - one of whom orchestrates a series of vicious attacks that leave Jeb deaf. Now that he’s aged beyond his latest client’s interest, Jeb knows he needs to escape his risky lifestyle before it’s too late. Seeing one last chance for himself, he earns a GED and enrolls in college.

Freddy Williams enjoys a life that couldn’t be more different from what Jeb has survived. He loves sports, being a personal trainer, and hanging out with friends. The son of deaf parents, Freddy is an outspoken advocate of the Deaf community and works as an interpreter at his college. When he meets Jeb at the bookstore, he’s struck by how attractive he is, and as they get to know each other, he finds Jeb’s good heart just as appealing. By the time he learns of Jeb’s past, it’s only a few steps behind them, and Freddy must make a choice between school and his familiar routine and protecting the man he’s falling in love with.

Trust Trade is a 154,000-word novel. Enjoy this foray into the Gem City Grit Universe.

Impactful

I admired Jeb's resilience , tenacity, and fortitude. He did what was necessary to survive and help others along the way. Freddy was steadfast, accepting. and protective of Jeb. I loved and admired both main characters. Some dark times, but love and light shine through. Hard to listen to at times but compelled by the material. Great read. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job with voices and expressions bringing it to life.

Heartbreaker

This is the second story I’ve listened to by this author and I had to verify it was the same author. I love this story. This has so much emotion and right from the start I felt such heartbreak for Jeb. This lasted to the very end. Jeb or James has had almost the worse life can offer a person. His dad is abusive and he decides to run away. Life does not get better when other men abuse him and he ends up deaf. When he meets Freddy life changes. There is so much that goes on in this story. Some things I expected and a few not so much. I feel that even the ending is sad. That is unusual anymore. I was happy with the narrator. Stephen Van Doren’s narration really brought Jeb to life. He knew how to vocalize the characters that fit the person they portrayed. I think the author’s story is extra good but the narration made it that much better. I was given a free copy and this is a voluntary review.

A Surprising great find

I was lucky enough to be gifted this book from the author. I am a big fan of MM romance. I love that this book is full of romance, love, kisses and young hearts finding each other. With this book you get the added bonus of a suspenseful plot, that will keep you on your toes. I can't reccomend this book enough if you like any of the above mentioned feelings and emotions. The author did an incredible job, the story flows well and doesn't have any dull places. So get your copy today, and get ready for a great read.

Excellent action listen

This is a sit on the edge of your seat listen. It definitely keeps you engaged. The storyline and characters are well developed and easy to love or hate as the storyline requires😁 I also love how other book names are dropped in the storyline!

Great story.

This is definitely a long one and an emotional one. Definitely in the beginning is tough. Getting right into Jeb's story I just wanted him to be happy. I like the way that Jeb and Freddy's relationship develops. Ki Brightly did a great job with this story. Then Stephen Van Doren brings this story to life. All the emotions that this story had Stephen made me feel it even more. Such a great listen.

super sad, but rewarding

I loved the relationship between Jeb, and Freddie. I wish the story was more about them, and the side characters were less frequent.
