Thanks to Paul Sturgess, his long-time family friend and benefactor, Mike Sloan has lived a comfortable existence during college as a record-breaking swimmer. He's looking forward to finishing his senior year, followed by graduate school, then a high-powered career. That's what he thinks anyway, before he meets Hank Schechter, the awkward, shy, new-transfer student swimmer. Mike senses a sensitivity to the withdrawn young man, and makes it his personal goal to bring Hank into the fold. While helping Hank to become a member of the team, Mike finds himself falling for the new guy. Mike's dear childhood friend, Rachel Levange, who is running her own private law practice, announces she's ready to become a mother. And she wants Mike to be the baby daddy. Mike may be a gay man, but he too is experiencing a sudden desire to become a father. How will he reconcile it all?

After a night with no sleep because of this book!!!! this is my review...( with no spoilers as always) before everything I need to say this book is not for everyone....

this book!!! Oww this freaking book !!!
when I was interested in this book I never imagined I would get this kind of story! this kind of feeling's! this kind of humanity!!!!!
you may think this is a usual gay romance but it's not ...not at all!
it's a story without labels, it's just a story that tell us about humans.... humans with mistakes, humans with false, and humans with feelings. maybe this book is not for everyone, because it sure as hell I was shocked!
it's a book about a man, a young man that is a struggle to finding one thing ...one special thing that we are all looking for. love!
simply love!
Michael is an amazing character. Hank is much more than amazing and sweet, so freaking sweet. the illness was so well described without even telling us the readers What Hank problem is.
and we knew did the problem is serious, we didn't knew he has disabilities.. but we knew that something is wrong. very very, wrong ...
every and each character in this book was in place.
it was amazing how everything collided in an amazing frustratingly good story.
I can't say everyone will love the story. I can't say everyone will say it's a good one.
no people will struggle with this book, this book is very special.
and I thought I knew the famous genre of gay men stories. but I was mistaken so much, and so badly!!!
because when I got this one I have learned the sex is just an act... an act that you can do with a woman and enjoy it with a man and enjoy it and you don't need to label. the feeling that they were looking for is love... yes they were looking for sex (like all humans)
but this book in specific is incredible and frustratingly annoying.
I don't even know how to describe it! and I don't know if everyone would love it. but I couldn't switch off the narrator for one second, I didn't sleep, I couldn't work properly until I finished this specific book.
I was thinking a lot about the score I will give this book, but I can't give anything below 5 stars... because this book made me anxious, made me mad, I felt the sweetness of Hanks disease... I felt the struggle of Mike's life.. I felt in every syllable, in every word, and in every sentence!!! what the author I meant, when he write this book!
the narrator was quite amazing... I didn't knew anything about this narrator and this writer until I heard this book, and I'm sure I will get another book from this writer even though this book was frustratingly annoying and frustratingly good. everything that happened will piss you off, it pissed me off so badly ....but I couldn't stop myself and I couldn't stop wishing that everything will be okay it just was so good I will definitely wait for more books from this author. and I will search another books of this narrator.

Everyone wants Mike. His friend, Rachel still wants him. His benefactor, Paul wants to marry him. Even his teammate, Hank, wants to fool around with him.

I found it a little difficult to like Mike. He has some moments where he thinks about his life choices and he is pretty brutal in his assesments. I think he is dissasociating from life because his mom is sick. At least, this is the only palatable reason I can come up with to explain him.

Honestly, I can see where the author was going with this story. Life is hard and full of hard choices that pull at us from all directions - especially when young and your entire life is ahead of you. I remember having this style of self reflection in college when I didn't realize how rude and selfish I could sound. There are so many things flowing through this book, many of the topics are lightly explored.

I think Hank deserves his own book. He is a strong secondary character and he has an interesting story to tell. He just needs more time to tell it.

The audio book performance is very good. Alex has a gentle, smooth voice that was comforting and he portrays the characters with empathy. He's so skil!ful that I will definitely listen to more of his work.

Overall, I think college age people will relate to this book.

Soul searching YA story

This story was very different many levels of the story. Lots of angles of the characters. I do feel like a lot of details were left up in the air. The beginning was awkward. It seemed to even out but man the turns of story were just a bit much for the small amount of time the book had left. I did like it just needs more hotness:)

Different but good

The storyline was interesting, but the writing left alot of much needed details out. The characters were undeveloped.

I enjoyed listening to the narrator, he did a good job with what he had to work with.

I received this audible free of cost. I freely give my honest review.

Could have been great

This story was interesting, but I didn't love it. The characters never clicked with me, and I never felt a real connection between them. I felt like there were several holes in the story line, and I wanted to know if Mike's mom passed away before he went to the trials. I did find the idea of training for the Olympics to be really interesting, so I enjoyed that, as well as some other parts of the book. I think the narrator did a good job, and I'd listen to him again. I just wish I liked the characters more.

Interesting characters and story
