A Breath Apart

De: Christina Lee

Narrado por: Iggy Toma

The Fischers are the only family Brennan has ever known, and when they adopt him, he has no plans on doing anything to jeopardize that. Even if it means pretending Josh Daly doesn't make his heart pound every time their eyes meet.

The tension eases once Josh heads off to a Christian university on a baseball scholarship. Brennan stays put in Elm Grove to work at his family's drive-in movie theater and take classes at the local community college.

But when Josh comes home for summer break, the feeling not only returns, it transforms into a loud and commanding drumbeat he struggles to tune out.

Finally admitting who he is feels overwhelming. There's a reason Brennan remains a virgin and when he realizes Josh might be one too, the chemistry between them becomes impossible to ignore. Except acting on his attraction throws everything Josh has been raised to believe out the window.

Plagued by fear and self-doubt, they finally surrender, placing their trust in each other and their undeniable connection. But facing the world together takes the sort of faith that will either strengthen their bond...or shatter its very foundation.

Contains mature themes.

so sweet

I came to this book for the Iggy Toma narration but stayed for the tender, charming story.

5stars the whole way

This is the best story I’ve read in a LONG LONG time what a beautiful story and narration was the best I’ve heard yet to date and I do have some favorites. If you miss this book you miss a real treasure. Please take the chance on this one. You will not be disappointed

Iggy for the win!

I loved this book so completely... Except, I think the bonus scene ruined it. (I know most people want details, but having this scene tacked on at the end was a mistake. It would have been better to have the scene part of the original flow). Besides that, this book is perfect in every way. A really sweet, but profound story. Good, well developed characters, interesting side players and Iggy Toma outdid himself with the narration. So, so good! Highly recommend. ❤️❤️

Josh and Brennon

good figuring out life and sexuality story. Young Love!! AND Iggy Toma, his work on this is OUTSTANDING. I Love his voice and his ease of telling a story. Josh and Brennon are worth your credit and your time to listen.

Sweet story

Simple and sweet story of two guys coming of age and discovering their sexuality. Sincere text brought to life by a solid narrator.

Sweet Young Love 💜

It’s a summer romance years in the making. Josh and Brennan live in a small town and had known each other since they were kids. Their family background is so different from each other. Their story, their friendship, their journey to self discovery and making each other be their own safe haven.. it’s beautiful.
It’s young love, it’s innocent but also pure and fierce.

Such a well-written coming of age summer romance. Iggy Toma’s narration was awesome. The bonus scene was a great treat. 💜

So good!

One of the best coming of age gay story I’ve listened to, and trust me, I’ve listened to A LOT!

Beautiful love story

As a bisexual ex-evangelical myself, I wasn't sure I wanted to jump into this story, but I'm so glad I did. I was definitely triggered by Josh's dad, as he was so true to my own experiences with the hypocritical patriarchy of the evangelical church. Christina Lee really nailed it with Josh's family forcing him into counseling with his pastor. In contrast, seeing how Brennan's family openly accepted his coming out just shows how important acceptance is, especially from your family.

My heart broke for the boys as they tried to navigate their way through discovering their sexuality together as young adults, not yet free from the influence of their parents. I just wanted to tell them that it does get better, and they do eventually discover that for themselves. This was a very sweet and moving story of young love, and I would totally recommend it for any teenager questioning their sexuality.

Iggy Toma gave a wonderful performance as I always expect from him.

sweet....not much sex

if ur looking for spice 🌶 this isn't the book for you. young love, coming out, religious bullshit, sweet boys. sex is very limited.

Beautiful!

I loved this BL romance so much. it was such a beautiful and satisfying love story. I felt it in my soul! Heartwarming and at times heartbreaking the character development was some of the best writing I've read or in this case listened to.. the narration was superb. This novel had the most sensual love scenes that were both sweet and sexy at the same time. Full of wisdom and truth it made me wish that every person could read this story and gain understanding about the world in color...and the potential for everyone to live a life with honesty empathy tolerance and love. I will definitely read this again and recommend it.. rhank you for writing such lovely compassionate stories.
