About this listen
Julian’s boss is newly single, ridiculously hot, and looking his way. He’s so screwed.
Cal Morgan’s life was going right on plan—got the wife, the baby, and the board game café he opened with his best friends. At least until his wife dropped the dreaded "d" word. Newly divorced and juggling custody of their toddler with his ex, Cal’s dreams of a family are burnt to ash.
Julian Hale’s been carrying a torch for his sexy boss, Cal, for far too long. As the oldest of five and surrogate mom to his siblings, Julian gets tugged in so many directions that he’s never made time for himself—his wants, his desires—and he definitely desires this man.
However, when Cal starts turning those scorching stares Julian’s way, he can’t resist, even though he should. They’re boss and employee, and Cal’s fresh out of a divorce with a two-year-old—it’s a recipe for disaster even if they’re both falling fast. But when Julian’s application to nursing school gets accepted, he’ll have to choose between pursuing the dreams he set aside when his mom died or the one man he could imagine a future with. Life taught him early on that he’ll never get both.
Roll the dice on romance at Tabletop Tavern…

Melody Roberts finally got the promotion she'd been aiming for - across the country in San Francisco. The perfect escape from her stagnant life and the toxic relationship with her now ex-boyfriend. The moment Mel answers Roxie's ad for a roommate, the connection between them is explosive, warm, and real.

Story
Noah: Rook Oliveira stumbled into my life when I was eleven years old. Being the scrawny new kid at school with a mouth full of braces, I never expected to become unlikely best friends with the most popular boy in seventh grade. At eighteen, I gathered the courage to tell him I was gay and admitted I'd never kissed a guy. He offered to be my first. Straight or not, that kiss had burned with nearly tangible fire and tattooed the moment on my heart. I've spent the last four years trying to forget it.

I’m Logan Lewis: popular, charming, and athletic. All the girls love me. Yep, I’ve really got it made. Then I find myself in danger of failing my chemistry class and losing my sports scholarship. I know the only person who can save me is the smartest science tutor on campus. Theo Reign is brilliant. He’s also cold, antisocial, moody, and mean. He looks at me like he hates me, but touches me like he wants me. There’s something just beneath the surface that draws me in. His secret pain mirrors my own, and I suddenly find myself craving him.

Story
Moving back to Heather Bay wasn’t on Oliver’s agenda for the summer, but after inheriting a cottage in dire need of renovation, he doesn’t have much choice. Supervising the builders should be easy…except the man in charge is Oliver’s childhood best friend and ex-boyfriend. Lane’s spent nine years desperately trying to forget his first love, but that doesn’t stop him from fantasizing about Oliver in every spare moment once he discovers Oliver’s back in town. Falling into bed together isn’t supposed to mean anything, even if Lane’s emotions feel too big to be ignored.

Zach Glasser has put up with a lot for the sport he loves. Endless days on the road, playing half-decent baseball in front of half-full stadiums and endless nights alone, pretending this is the life he's always wanted. The thing is, it could have been everything he ever wanted—if only he'd had the guts to tell his family, tell the club, that he was in love with his teammate Eugenio Morales. Well, ex-teammate now. When Zach wouldn't—couldn't—come out, Eugenio made the devastating choice to move on, demanding a trade away from Oakland. Away from Zach.

In a world where every detail of life - down to the width of a hat brim - is dictated by God and the all-powerful rules of the community, two men dare to imagine a different way. At 18, Isaac Byler knows little outside the strict Amish settlement of Zebulon, Minnesota, where there is no rumspringa for exploration beyond the boundaries of their insular world. Isaac knows he'll have to officially join the church and find a wife before too long, but he yearns for something else - something he can't name.

Story
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.

Sloane: Dominic Alexander is my late husband's best friend and the last man that I should want. For the last ten years, he's taken a sick pleasure in making me feel paper thin, like my existence is of no consequence to him at all. But now, things are different. After a drunken night, and a surprisingly sexy act of heroism, he's started to be . . . nice. Treating me like something other than the embodiment of his annoyance, which would be nice if it didn't make me feel things I swore to never feel for another man after my husband died.

Divorced and doing weekly custody trade offs with his frosty ex-wife is not how Cal envisioned his life going, and he most definitely did not expect to find himself attracted to his employee and friend, Julian.
Things shift between them when Julian, who has been a surrogate parent to his younger siblings for the last decade, offers to help watch Cal’s daughter when his boss is in a pinch, knowing how worn thin the man is.
The tension snaps between them and the pair fall head first into a hot and steamy relationship despite all the hurdles in their path, but theses two are definitely better together and make it work no matter what gets thrown their way. (Big FU to Sara btw lol)
Wisdom Check was a quick and steamy read, and I really loved the chemistry and dynamic between Cal and Julian. Also sweet Kaylee was so cute, and I wanted to squish her 😍

The narrator was not for me, I’ve heard a few of his narrations previously and his voice still makes me cringe. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not entirely the sound but more so the drawing out of the sentence endings.
Narrative did absolutely nothing for me

Katherine McIntyre seamlessly entwines the lives of found family, many of whom are part of the LGBTQ community, as based around the Tabletop Cafe. Zachary Zaba does a good job providing narration of Wisdom Check.
Julian has been working as the cafe’s chef since its opening, and has loved working for the three best friend owners. But Cal has consistently kept his eye.
‘Handsome’ Jule’s teasing nickname for Cal, is in the process of suffering through a loveless marriage, with the only bright spot being his toddler daughter.
Once Cal is able to look beyond his own pain, he is surprised to find a friend in Jules. As often happens, friendship turn into more, and this budding romance means more to each of them every day they are together.
A Happy Ever After that is well earned!

As far as the narration, I think it was fairly well done. I could definitely tell the difference between Cal and Jules. Sometimes Cal and Hunter sort of sounded the same, but it didn't really bother me. It wasn't flat necessarily but I also didn't feel like it was a particularly emotional narration.

The second book of this D&D series is a step up from the first. I'll admit I'm not a ff reader generally and prefer mm, so that likely is a good reason in my preference for this book.
Cal & Julian's attraction is believable as is their chemistry once they give it a chance. Overall, both characters are likable and love how they are very into their family and will do anything and everything to provide for them.
Fun read and makes me want to give the rest of the series a chance.
