Then the Stars Fall

By: Brandon Witt

Narrated by: Andrew McFerrin

The death of his wife four years earlier left Travis Bennett a shell of the man he used to be. With his dog by his side, Travis raises his three children, manages his business, and works as a ranch hand. But every day, every minute, is an aching emptiness.

Wesley Ryan has fond memories of the small Ozark town of El Dorado Springs. Seeing it as a safe place to put his failed relationships behind him, Wesley moves into his grandparents' old home and takes over the local veterinary clinic. An early morning visit from Travis and his dog stirs feelings that Wesley seeks to push away - the last thing he needs is to fall for a man with baggage and three kids as part of the package.

Life, it seems, has other plans.

A very worthwhile Read

This is so much more than a gay love story. I definitely recommend! Also,The voice actor is one of the best I've encountered.

Sweet, low angst HEA romance

Sweet, low angst HEA romance. A bit too sweet for my tastes but sincere and well written. Andrew McFerrin's narration is spot-on perfect.

Story is very good, performance is great

I'd bought this as an ebook, oh, a year ago or so and really enjoyed it, but wound up purchasing the audiobook more recently. I have to say that while the story Brandon Witt has written is very good, it's the reading performance that is spectacular. Andrew McFerrin does a tremendously good job not only with the narration (which some readers do not excel at), but manages to create and perform each character with a distinct voice.

Not Just Another Romance

Would you listen to Then the Stars Fall again? Why?

Yes. I enjoyed the story. It was believable, entertaining & I was rooting for the good guys.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Although crusty old Travis was a favorite, I think the Vet was my real favorite character in the book.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No extreme reactions but I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I'm not normally a romance reader - I prefer Thrillers, Murders & Mysteries - I do wander off to other things that catch my attention, though. This was a nice break from all the usual mayhem, like a visit to a small town to catch your breath after a long week in the city. And, er, well, ahem, blush, I will admit to brushing away a tear or two - especially at the wedding.

Different than the Synopsis

This book covers a completely different turn of events than the synopsis describes. The story ended up being more about a challenging and wonderful homosexuality relationship. I didn't mind this, however, other readers may be upset it's not what the synopsis seems to be about.
