At 10 years old, Noah Jameson and Cooper Bradshaw collided midair when they dove for the same football. For three years they were inseparable...until one day when Noah and his parents disappeared in the middle of the night.

Noah and Cooper never knew what happened to each other. Now, 17 years later, after finding his boyfriend in bed with another man, Noah returns to Blackcreek looking for a fresh start. And damned if he doesn't find his old friend grew up to be as sexy as sin.

Coop can't believe Noah - the only person he trusted with the guilt over his parents' death - is back. And gay. Or that Cooper himself suddenly wants another man in his bed for the first time. There's no denying the attraction and emotion between them, but can they overcome the ghosts of their pasts to have a future together?

If I were reading this myself, I would have put the book down about 7 chapters in. The story can get very repetitive in the middle, with a lot of character traits that are informed, or which are beaten about the reader's head so much you'd think this was a weekly serial instead of a novel. And the numerous sex scenes have some things that are so awkward or poorly written that it's laugh out loud hilarious.

But it has a good beginning and a strong ending, and that ending makes up for a lot of the middle. The characters are interesting, and the plot is good. It just needed about 5 chapters worth of repetition, sex, repetition, will-they-or-won't-they, and repetition cut out of it by an editor for the pacing to not drag constantly. Or perhaps it needed its subplot explored more in the middle.

The narrator was excellent, and his story telling was the only reason I managed to keep going to the end. He does excellent voices for the characters, including switching it up for the flash backs, which I appreciated greatly. And he only cracked up once during his reading!

Good performance, story needs an editor

This book, about two boys who met at age 10, is a story of friendship and love and finding oneself. It is sweet, sad, and has lots of sex. I enjoy reading this writer and Luke, the narrator is terrific.

Thoroughly enjoyed

I don't write reviews unless I really liked the story. The story really grabbed my attention after the first chapter. I have read/listened to the Crossroads series from Riley and enjoyed them and this series promises some more great stories. The performance was awesome! I have found another great narrator. To me Luke rates just as good to me as Graham and Michael! Thank You to both Riley and Luke! They made me fall in love with both Cooper and Noah! I miss them already...LOL! WILL RE-READ/LISTEN!

Loved it!

I was "introduced" to this authors work by another author. Leslie McAdam was singing praises about Riley Hart. She even gave me a Riley Hart book. I smiled and said I'd love to read it. However, this is my first foray into Riley Harts work. An Audible sale snared me and bow I want to kick my own ass for the delay!

Collide is fantastic. Well written and everything you need and want in a romance!!!! The feels, the chemistry, the longing...Sigh! Don't even get me started on the self doubt, the insecurities. These two are real, sexy, and unfortunately not interested in what I have to offer! Lol.

Riley Hart has given Black Creek and epic start. I am absolutely going to devour the rest of this series as fast as I can download them!

Did I mention, Cooper is a hot fireman...? Oh sorry, and that Noah, is former military... Now you're starting to picture it. Instead of imagining all the hot, delectable things and the intense chemistry, rough hands....Just buy it!!!!

what a collision!!!

Another wonderful book, please don’t stop writing. This one tugged at my heart over and over again, in the best way possible :-)

Amazing

I really enjoyed listening to this story. I love stories which have a lot of background from the characters past and this one really highlighted the connection Coop and Noah had as children, and the evolution of that when they reunited as adults. I liked that there was so struggle to them finding their way together but that it didn’t feel overly angsty, and the chemistry between them was palpable. That being said the end didn’t quite feel like a true ending. I would have liked a little more of seeing them navigate their lives after this and tbh a clear cutting out of the homophobic family member scene. I also could have used a little more fluff in the epilogue as well but all in all it was a well written story that had great narration.

Really Enjoyable Listen

This was a real good book, that paid attention to details that wound the way to the great reveal of why the past events in the main characters lives still had a great effect on their present. I like the way they unfolded the story's climax!

It was okay? I mean it had some moments but mostly just unimpressive and felt like I’ve seen and done all this before and so much better elsewhere. But if you want easy it’s easy and you like the dudely journey through gay-for-you exceptionalism struggle (and lord is it a miserable struggle but not so deep that it actually feels like we learned anything except this one guy is special) then you’re gonna like this. You’re over that narrative this isn’t for you. This is another on it took me literally years to complete and only managed because I had the Romance package.

It wasn’t bad I guess
