So good

This is probably my favorite book of Mia’s. I was really looking forward to this audio and it did not disappoint. Kale’s almost soothing voice makes it really appealing to listen to and his accent for Saint was perfection. This will definitely be a re-listen.

Fantastic!

Wonderful! This was one of my favorite books in this series and I remember not being able to put it down! When it came out in audio, I jumped at the chance to be able to relive Saint and Casper. And wow! Kale Williams really knocked this narration out of the park for me. His accent for Saint was perfect! It wasn’t a strong brogue, but just right to keep me hanging on every word. He really pulled me right into Saint and Casper’s story. It really left me with so many feels and I was...Just. Sucked. In. I adored both these men and I alternately wanted to give them both giant hugs. Saint and Casper came to each other with some hefty baggage and I loved the way they both worked through it together. These men healed each other’s hearts in the best of ways. Saint knew what Casper needed, but tried his hardest to hold back his Daddy instincts to protect himself. Casper for his part really tried to stay in the requested friend-zone, but what a boy wants...Gah. Their story was fabulous! I loved getting to know more about the guys at Dulce Santo and Black Heart! Getting more of Jude and Briar to was great! I’m so looking forward to reliving this series in audio!

Casper and Saint 💜

This was such a beautiful story about a broken Daddy and a broken Boy who were able to heal each other. Saint and Casper’s story was so amazing! Casper knew from day 1 that Saint was meant to be his. Even though Saint pushed his advances away in an attempt to just be friends, Casper never stopped. He kept up his efforts until Saint was finally able to say that maybe Casper could be the one to put his broken heart back together again. It was only then that Casper realized how truly broken he was and how much he NEEDED Saint in his life. He needed the guidance and love and support that Saint could give him. It was beautiful to see them progress together and build a beautiful relationship that was built on trust love and understanding. This book is definitely a 5 star read that I HIGHLY recommend to everyone and the narration…speechless 💜

Kale Williams' Scottish brogue is to die for

Mia Monroe engages Kale Williams as her narrator for the audiobook of Fix Me, the second book in her delicious Tattoos & Temptation series. Serious props to her for snagging him, because he is un-freaking-believable. Mr. Williams voices all of the Tattoos and Temptations series books (lucky us *squeee*). So far, we’ve gotten the prequel, Date Me, and the first book, Marry Me, and in both, his voice is a sinful confection. But his narration of Fix Me takes the cake.

Kale Williams’ vocal performance on the Fix Me audiobook is a stunning tour de force. His voice is like silk – smooth, sultry, and sexy in equal measure. He creates a soothing ambiance with the relaxing rise and fall cadence of his words, like the susurration of a flowing river. He effortlessly spins out the story, coaxing you to fall helplessly into the captivating words of Ms. Monroe’s romance, surrounded by the aura of happiness and home he creates.

In Fix Me, Mr. Williams is utterly transformative. He doesn’t simply tell the story. He creates the story, expanding it into something larger and more consuming than it was on paper. A pretty remarkable feat given Ms. Monroe’s excellent source material. Multi-layered, subtext-filled, seemingly simple stories are the hallmark of Ms. Monroe’s work. Yet Mr. Williams uses his voice alone to peel back some of those layers, communicating the story in a unique, breathtaking way.

Fix Me focuses on Saint and Casper. Saint is the owner of the Latin bakery Dulce Santo where Briar, from the first book, Marry Me, works. Casper is a talented yet lonely tattoo artist at Black Heart, the tattoo shop owned by Marry Me’s Jude, Briar’s fiancé. In Marry Me, we meet Saint and Casper, see their immediate attraction, and get hints that they each have a pain-filled backstory. Indeed, Fix Me exposes that Saint and Casper are both traumatized by events from a prior relationship, albeit in different ways. But they find a way to “fix” what’s broken and heal each other.

This is an opposites attract, age-gap romance with a Daddy/boy dynamic that doesn’t veer into dom/sub territory. Saint is too sweet, loving, and doting to be a true Dom. But that’s a perfect match for what Casper needs: structure with gentle handling. Saint and Casper’s relationship works well. It’s engaging, authentic, and full of sizzling chemistry, sweet acceptance, and love.

Admittedly, when I read Fix Me the first time, without audio, I couldn’t quite get a handle on Saint. To me, he presented a confounding mixture of stiff formality and saccharine, besotted endearments. It was difficult to fully grasp his complex personality from the pages. But Kale Williams’ impeccable portrayal of Saint resolved the ambiguity. Mr. Williams uses a rich but subtle tone, full of life and depth, perfectly reflective of Saint. With proper inflections, pacing, and emphasis – all of which Mr. Williams provides like a master class in narration – the facets of Saint’s character meld into one beautiful human being. He’s a man trying to escape from grief-driven, self-imposed romantic isolation. He has a huge heart that he wants to share but he’s afraid.

Saint’s gorgeous personality shows through in the warmth of his Scottish brogue, which Mr. Williams makes into some seriously heady stuff when it rolls off his tongue. He gives it a warm, sweet lilt that will have you sighing and swooning. But then he’ll descend into a panty-melting growl, and holy hell, it’s a five-alarm fire. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I wanted to wrap myself up in it and never leave.

Kale Williams’ performance in Fix Me is better than Xanax. He makes it so easy to lose yourself and let all your stress just melt away. The soothing, relaxing nature of his dulcet tones keeps you entranced. Six hours fly by, yet it doesn’t feel like it’s been long enough. As I approached the end of Fix Me, I began mourning the loss before it was even over. I’d endlessly listen to Mr. Williams, so stringing together a back-to-back soundtrack of Ms. Monroe’s Tattoos & Temptation audios – on repeat – sounds like a perfect solution. I can’t think of a better way to spend time.

I give my highest recommendation to the amazing Fix Me audiobook from this inspired Mia Monroe/Kale Williams collaboration. Grab this audio and enjoy.

Working through their baggage

Intrigued with Saint from the first time that he met him, Casper is determined to pursue him. But all of his attempts get thawed and he gets relegated to a friend.

A friendship which starts to build into love as they slowly work through their baggage and past together as Saint taps into his inner Daddy to calm the overzealous boy that Casper is.
A perfect compliment is what they are and they build a love that is proves to be lasting as well.

This is a captivating tale to listen to with amazing characters and some great supporting characters. The emotion, humor and passion will keep you engrossed in this tale.

The narration was splendid, especially the brogue in which Saints voice was vocalized in which made each character easily discernible. Mr Williams really outdid himself with this one.

Another home run for Mia Monroe

I'm always shocked to listen to the audio version of a book that I've read, because the characters voice's never sound like what I expected, LOL! Oh those voices in my head! I just love Kale Williams' narration so I'm not the least bit disappointed... Aww, that Scottish brogue. I am a huge Mia Monroe fan and this entire series is one of my favorites. To have these books brought to life, via audio, is such a treat. Be sure to start with book 1, these books are more fun to read in order since the characters flow through the series. This is the story of Saint, the sweet Irish daddy, and Casper, the feisty/bratty boy. Casper wants to go straight to the good stuff but Saint just wants to be friends. Saint explains that he's not friendzoning him but that he wants to keep Casper in his life. Due to issues in both their pasts, there are things that must be worked through before they get their HEA. Grab this, you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful Narrating to a Beautiful Story

Mia Monroe has written a feisty love story where a Brat and his distanced Daddy each find what they desperately need in the other.

Having read this book in its written form, I was oh, so pleasantly surprised to enjoy it again, because of Kale William’s narration prowess. He was able to pull me in even deeper, with Saint’s Scottish brogue and Casper’s sweet, sad, and sexy emotions.

Mia Monroe has such a talent for sharing the truest devotion for her MM romance audience
