Resumen del Editor

One grumpy boy...

Ethan's Valentine's Day isn't going well. He's been talked into attending a pretentious premier gala with his ex-boyfriend at movie mogul Charles Weston’s posh Beverly Hills mansion. Ethan’s plan is to hit up the free bar for all the gin they'll give him, then slink home, alone. Instead, he gets lost in the host's mansion, runs into a handsome stranger, and suddenly, his night takes a sharp turn for the better.

Plus one lonely man...

Charlie has everything he could ever want, except someone to love, and he's just about given up trying to find him. Then, at his party, he stumbles upon a young man gawking at his Cezanne and cursing his name. Charlie is amused, then charmed, then turned on by Ethan, who can't shut up and has the biggest blue eyes Charlie has ever seen.

Equals the most memorable Valentine’s Day, ever!

Both know that falling into bed with a stranger is a terrible idea, but it might turn out to best mistake either has ever made.

Be My Mistake is a prequel of sorts to Damage Control, but can be listened to on its own. It’s a scorching hot Valentine’s Day novella with a mouthy twink, the best daddy ever, a lot of John Hughes references, a ridiculous mansion which may or may not contain a twink pit, and, of course, a HEA.

Daddy!!!

Nice short daddy kink mm romance. Always a good buy when it's Michael Ferraiuolo, Love his voice and the life he brings to each character. Worth the credit and your time to listen.

More Charlie and Ethan

I have loved this audio/story since it came out and I revisit it because it’s so short and sweet. It has just the right amount of everything. Instant love (which I know gets a bad rap but it really does happen or at least it did for me), humor and heat mixed with just the right amount of daddy to help Ethans mind from spiraling too much. I just want more!
Also Michael Ferraiuolo always knocks it out of the park. Can’t say enough good things about his narrations.

Short, but Satisfying Addition to the Series

I listened to this after listening to Damage Control and Daddy Issues. It's nice to see how Ethan and Charles get together. It's hard to believe this story takes place in such a short amount of time; it definitely doesn't seem like a short story. The epilogue was perfect and their HEA was believable.

As always, I loved Michael Ferraiuolo's narration. The different voices he gives all of the characters is exceptional.

I kind of wish I had listened to this first. It just gives me a reason to re-listen to this series.

Short and Steamy Valentine

This was a nice intro into the series, I hadn't read this one but have read the rest of the series and was curious about Ethan in Damage Control. I loved getting his story it's a little borderline on the consent and some may have issues with that. Ferraiuolo does a fantastic job with the narration. Overall a nice quick listen.

Sweet and quick!

I love a good Daddy and Charlie is exactly that. I felt so bad for Ethan for much of this because his self worth is so skewed. I adore that Charlie sees past all that. So good!!

Short, Steamy and Kinky

This is a very enjoyable steamy short story about how Charlie and Ethan got together. They found exactly what they needed in each other, Ethan found his Daddy and Charlie found his Good Boy.
Narrator Michael Ferraiuolo does a fabulous job.

Perfect!

Short, sweet, and sexy. Excellent character development and perfect narration. Loved the HEA. Highly recommend!

Le sigh...

Oh man, I love this story.

So in here we have Ethan, a young fella who was dumped by his best friend/boyfriend who is a famous actor. Ethan works for tmz and had mentioned that he was going to a party thrown by a famous rich guy named Charles Weston. So even though they broke up, Ethan still had to go.

Charlie is a Daddy in search of a boy and while Ethan was not already a boy, he was willing to go along with it.

I wish all mansions came with a twink pit.

This all happens over a weekend but if one just goes with the flow, it makes sense. I love the whole vibe.

The epilogue is three years later, and I felt that it made sense and gave them time to get to know each other.

Michael Ferraiuolo did a good job, I just wish Charlie had a stronger voice when being all stern Daddy.

Short, steamy, sweet, and oh-so-good!

Following in the proverbial footsteps of Damage Control and Daddy Issues, Be My Mistake certainly had ginormous shoes to fill. With it being a far shorter listen compared to its two predecessors in the North Shore Stories series, you'd think that it had its work cut out for it, but Lynn Van Dorn's writing combined with Michael Ferraiuolo's narration are a more than formidable partnership. Ethan and Charlie's story has an age-gap romance combined with a hint of Daddy kink, and in a matter of three hours, I found myself as emotionally invested in them as I was with Tyler and Josh in Damage Control and Ryan and Marek in Daddy Issues. While this does serve as a prequel in the series, it can easily be listened to either before the full-length stories or afterwards, which is what I ended up doing since that's how they were released as audiobooks. My expectations may have been high, but Van Dorn and Ferraiuolo repaid my faith in them with a fabulous audiobook that had humor and angst as well as a whole lot of heart and heat. Five stars for Be My Mistake! ♥

So sweet

I enjoyed everything about this audio! Charlie and Ethan’s story was very sweet. I absolutely loved their “meet cute”. Narration by Michael Ferraiuolo was spot on!
