Can a touch of Satin bring a straight copper to his knees?

Detective Joel Hunter is on surveillance when he first lays eyes on Satin, the singer with the amazing voice, which is as beautiful as she is. But when the stake-out comes to an end, he can’t resist going back to the bar. He gets a shock when he learns what lies beneath the satin dress, but an even bigger one when he realizes he’s attracted to the owner of that sultry voice - Ross Dauntry.

Ross can’t figure out why the cop keeps coming back, even after he’s learned the truth. Is Joel attracted to him, or to Satin? Because the answer is important, and one way or another, Ross needs to know....

A standalone novella of satin and sensuality....

Although this story is in the same series as Lace, you will not find Dave and Shawn in this audiobook - Joel and Ross provide enough heat of their own.

I find myself drawn to the gay/bi-awakening trope of the MM genre. This book by KC Wells is one of the top ones I've read. In this wonderfully written story, police detective Joel is mesmerized by a female impersonator/singer who uses the name 'Satin'. Joel, for his part, doesn't understand his attraction to Ross, even after discovering Satin is a man. Meanwhile, Ross is the sort of guy to fall fast and hard for the men in his life, only to be hurt by them in the end. Will Ross and Joel's fears about relationships keep them apart, or will they overcome them to get their happy ending?

My favorite aspect of the book is its lack of an angst-fest. Joel is not going around all broody about his life-changing realization. He is mature enough to know to talk to people about how he's feeling. When characters act like the adults they are, it raises my enjoyment exponentially. Ross doesn't get short shrift either. While he is a little younger than Joel, and a lot in love with love, he is a determined person, to the point of possibly achieving his dream job of dancing for the Royal Ballet. In fact, all the characters behave and interact in an appropriate and believable manner throughout. Wells delivers some stellar character development.

Seb Yarrick's narration is good. It's maybe a tad over-enthusiastic, like he's trying to make a conversation heard in a crowded room (if that makes sense), but nothing to stop me listening.

This audiobook was given as a free review copy, after I requested it. These opinions are honest and voluntary.

Highly recommended.

Joel is instantly attracted to Satin without first realizing that Satin is actually Ross, a man. Joel is a cop who has always thought of himself as straight but he can't deny his attraction to Ross. I really enjoyed the story and how it all came together. I really appreciate that Joel didn't just automatically accept his attraction and relationship to a man but instead took his time to really analyze his feelings. The narrator did an overall good job with the story and the characters. I voluntarily reviewed a gifted copy of this audio book.

This was a fantastic story!! Joel has to admit to himself that he's bisexual, he cannot look away from Ross while he's performing as Satin. Joel and Ross have off the charts, serious chemistry! Seb Yarrick did a fantastic job with the narration!

Incredible story

Although Ross Dauntry, aka Satin, works as a lounge singer, his real love is dancing, and one of the high points of the story is his triumphant audition for the London Ballet. That aside, he and Detective Joel Hunter must navigate their way through Joel's ignorance of his bisexuality and his repeated faux pas when it comes to how he should respond to Ross, who is out and proud. Thankfully, he finally does the right thing all the way through, instead of leaving things unsaid, and they have their HEA. The story was lovely, even if Joel seemed to be a little too stereotypically slow on the uptake and thick between the ears in the matter of his relationship with Ross.

The narration I didn't like so much. Am I the only one who was constantly distracted by some of the really odd pronunciation of words by this actor, the most glaring of which was words like "tongue" being pronounced "tong"? And in that same vein, since when does the first "g" in words like "tonguing" and "longing" sound like a hard "g"? Unless I've been mispronouncing that word and others like it my entire life (which is well over half a century), that first "g" should NOT sound like the first "g" in "gingham". But our narrator consistently pronounced it that way, and I found it a HUGE distraction.
