Publisher's summary

Bookstore owner Aubrey Barnes likes his quiet, orderly London life, thank you very much. His shop may be struggling, his only employee is a menace, and his plumbing is one creaky pipe away from disaster, but he can handle it. Maybe. He cannot, however, handle the film company that's thrown his Soho street into chaos.

And he definitely can't handle the charismatic American actor Blake Sinclair.

Which is why he's extremely reluctant to lease out his shop as a set for Blake's film, but it's his one opportunity to save his business. Now he can't get away from the distractingly hot actor.

Then Aubrey finds himself alone with Blake in a trailer, and what happens next turns London's heat wave into an inferno that leaves him breathless.

Aubrey is not cut out for the high-profile life of dating a celebrity, especially an American actor who's not even out yet. Good thing their tryst is absolutely not going anywhere.

Of course, when you expect nothing, that's exactly when it starts to mean everything.

Contains mature themes.

Great reader!

A gay Notting Hill, but it stands on its own as a romance worth sticking with.

Originality

It’s a different take which is refreshing. It has its corny moments, but it’s such a sweet story it will keep you engaged. You won’t put it down. I may or may not have finished it in one sitting…

Easy Banter, Believable Attraction.

Fun story, and easy to fall into the romance of it all. Just wish they had shared some resolve to Blake’s explosive fear of industry rejection.

loved this dual country love story

I loved Blake and Auburn in this dual country love story. each having ghosts from the past.

As Good As Red, White and Royal Blue

As I listened to this, I felt the same desire to keep going I still feel for Red White and Royal Blue. I can highly recommend this book to anyone.

Lovely!

I don't understand the reviewer that didn't like the main character. I absolutely loved Aubrey. He was not a wet blanket by any means. It was a lovey romantic rom com with a quirky book store owner who was constantly surprising himself with his own courage, and an up and coming actor who seemed all together but was also learning how to be courageous himself. The reviewer posted that they were hoping Blake would leave Aubrey, however I wouldn't have blamed Aubrey for leaving Blake. Lovely ending to a lovely story.

Brilliant

Gary Furlong is brilliant at story telling and expressing the emotions of the characters. He really understands Aubrey.

OMGEEEE!

I loved this story! As a hard core romantic this book have me all of the feels! I can't wait to see what else comes from Hayden! Also, Gary Furlong?! AMAZING!!!!

MC is unbearable.

there wasn't any positive aspects of the MC, negative all the time. the relationship didn't develop organically. The romantic encounters were cringe at best

Loved it

This book is so much fun, loved it totally recomendable …. Would listen to it again
