Publisher's summary

“Whether making my heart melt or my head burst into flames, Annabeth Albert draws the reader in and keeps them captivated.” (Gay Book Reviews)

The sexy Navy chief and his best friend’s adorkable little brother....

It’s petty, but Naval Chief Derrick Fox wishes he could exact a little revenge on his ex by showing off a rebound fling. His submarine is due to return to its Bremerton, Washington, home base soon and Derrick knows all too well there won't be anyone waiting with a big, showy welcome.

Enter one ill-advised plan....

Arthur Euler is the guy you go to in a pinch - he's excellent at out-of-the-box solutions. It's what the genius music-slash-computer nerd is known for. So when he finds out Derrick needs a favor, he’s happy to help. He can muster the sort of welcome a Naval Chief deserves, no problem at all.

Except it is a problem. A very big problem.

When Arthur’s homecoming welcome is a little too convincing, when a video of their gangplank smooch goes enormously viral, they're caught between a dock and a hard place. Neither of them ever expected a temporary fake relationship to look - or feel - so real. And Arthur certainly never considered he'd be fighting for a very much not-fake forever with a military man.

Good love story

Totally enjoyed this book and will buy the next one in the series! I would greatly recommend it. It’s nice to read a love story that was a real romance!!

Uff ..take again with Joel Leslie❤❤❤

The book is good, romantic ,entertaining and enjoyable, the narrator were good but Joel Leslie was as I expected and beyond, his way of narration is so good that you feel every character in your bones.

great book but sound issues

really enjoyed the book The narration was great but they were technical difficulties with the recording that really took away from the story sometimes the voices cut out completely or skipped very disappointing

SLOW START... BUT PICKS UP STEAM

The story starts out slowly, but picks up steam as the plot line progresses. Loveable characters and an HEA ending. Narrators did a great job contrasting the two main characters. Enjoyed the supporting cast of family members.

Cute

Cute love story where both people learn to accept themselves as well as each other. Everyone wins.

Boudreaux AND Leslie!

Greg Boudreaux and Joel Leslie are two of my absolute favorites, so I was thrilled to see them teaming up, and they both did the bang-up job they’re famous for. However, there is one disappointing thing. Rather than doing a duet reading with each of them taking a role and sticking with it through the entire book, they alternate chapters, each doing all the voices for their chapters. It kills the flow of what could have been an amazing performance. Oh well. I wait in hope for the book Leslie and Boudreaux really do together!

So goooood!

Loved both the story AND the narration by 2 of my favorites. What a power trio!!

Swoonworthy!!

I don’t think I can describe how much I loved this book! Derrick and Arthur are one of my favorite couples. They bring out the best in each other. Ms. Albert did a wonderful job showing all the different dynamics in Arthur’s family. The narration was absolutely perfect! I just really enjoyed everything about this book. I hope the next book will be Calder’s. As a last note…. Best cover ever!!

Great book odd voice

I loved the story and I love it Greg’s voice when he reads a book however Joel Leslie was very nasally with his character and it was detrimental to the story.

VERY Cute story and characters

The characters were so cute and charming and I just love when the characters get involved in funny shenanigans throughout the story. Always a sucker for a book that will make me smile even outside the romantic parts. Highly recommend if you want something feel good.
