Publisher's summary

Tony DeLuca has to get to New York, nor'easter be damned. His older sister is getting married, and it won't matter to her if the entire East Coast is shut down if it means she's short a groomsman. She's the only reason he's willing to make the trip home to face a father who's never forgiven him for wasting a perfectly good degree to become a firefighter. And that's only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to everything about Tony that his father will never accept.

Dominic Tricoli's living his dream. He's spent the past few years working to mesh his business degree and love of the outdoors into a thriving company, providing team-building retreats for some of the country's largest corporations. Unfortunately there's a price to pay for happiness, and having someone to come home to at night is the sacrifice Dominic made.

When Dominic overhears Tony's plight, he's drawn to help the man get to New York City. Little does Dominic know that one kind gesture will awaken a side of him he's ignored for far too long. Against his better judgment, he gives in to his desires and Tony's advances. Just for the night.

When destiny steps in, giving him another chance with the charismatic man who saved his hide, Tony's willing to do whatever it takes to earn Dominic's forgiveness and understanding. There may not be forever, but Tony's determined to enjoy every single minute he's given with Dominic.

You can't fight fate. Whatever's meant to happen eventually will.

I enjoyed it

overall I really enjoyed the book, I liked how the relationship developed. I don't like how it ended tho, not that it ended bad but for me I wanted to know more. I for the most part I really enjoyed Christopher Rain's narration however like others have stated he does mispronounce some words and it throws you for a second but it didn't take away my enjoyment from the book. I would listen to both Sloan Johnson and Christopher Rain again.

Good story - a little too Real

This author is actually very good and the story Well written. The story feels a little long because it starts of as of u only have Two hours to get to the happy Ending and Then it surprises you again and again when you Think it is about to be wraped up. There are a lot of emotional bagage involved - but it is not over the top. Its a little hard to explain but even though the story May not be quite believable the emotions portraited in the story make it Real. There is no Real drama because even the Big things that happens are dealt with with normal actions and not over the top drama. Being a Big fan of DRAMA and GFY stories it isnt really my cup of tea but that is not the same as it being a bad story. The narrator is ok - he has some moments where he is very anoing and tends to talk for everyone except the MCs like he has a potato in his mouth - lucky there are very little interaktion with
Many People and this Can be ignored

A very sexy listen

I loved this book! I finished it on my road trip! Christopher Rain makes both Dom and Tony's love so real. I was pulled into the story and could visualize the characters interactions like I was actually watching it. Sloan Johnson created wonderful characters and an intriguing story that I couldn't stop listening to. Christopher Rain brought them to life with a sexy voice. I can't wait to see more books by both parties.

Fun, Easy, Enjoy!

The blurb gives you the plot and I can't add any more to that without writing spoilers. The best thing to know is I had a lot of fun listening to the bride, the mothers and of course the lovers.

Narrator is horrible

I don't understand how supposed professionals make so many mistakes.

epitome was pronounced incorrectly

The wrong emphasis was continually placed on the wrong syllable or word:

"bro code or SOME shit"

"it's refreshing really"

chaste was pronounced chast

wanton was pronounced wonton

Great story

I really enjoyed this book. It had lots of laughs and romance as well as twists and turns. The only issue I had was some of the parts of the story didn't go deep enough and seemed a little stilted. The Narrator did a good job with distinct voices.

Good story bad narrator

The story was good, well written however the narrator needs to brush up on the English language before performing on audio books, mispronunciation of simple words is inexcusable.

It’s good

While I quite liked the story, this audiobook as a whole is not my personal favorite. I found the ending a little rushed, and I didn’t like the whole thing about Dominic’s past relationship. His sudden change came out of left field and would have been better had there been a mention of that earlier for the reader/ listener. Or that’s just me and/or there was and I missed it. Other than that the story was good.
As for the narration, it was ok, but at some places the narrator sounded a bit robotic, and I personally didn’t like the female characters’ voices too much.
