Fast Forward

An Alt Er Love Novella

De: Xio Axelrod

Narrado por: Tristan James

As a 19-year-old wunderkind doctoral candidate, Ian Waters had little interest in social interaction. Books were his companions, and that had suited him just fine. Then a hurricane named Jessen Sørensen blew into his life, throwing Ian off his axis.

On the cusp of rock stardom, Jessen had burned brightly, and Ian had fallen heart-first under his spell. But Ian soon learned he was only a temptation, a pit stop on the road to the rocker's dreams, and Jessen was gone as quickly as he'd come. Ian buried his heartache in academia, the only home he'd ever known.

When Ian encounters Jessen at a party, the seven-year separation seems insurmountable. There's too much pain, too much distrust. But Jessen declares he has a new dream, and that's a life with Ian.

wish the story was longer

deep and emotionally a strong fast read. the story didn't truly depict why Jesson left Ian. I feel that Ian forgave Jesson too easily. This was my first MM read, and also my first Xio Axelrod read, and I think she did a great job for a short story!!

Fantastic Love Story

I may be a straight female, but I want a love like this! Jessen and Ian's love affair had been intense but ill-timed. Now seven years later, these two men are unable to forget the love that had quickly grabbed hold and fiercely hangs on. This second chance romance is the perfect amount of love, lust, broken hearts and mended souls. There are plenty of hot scenes, but there is also emotional depth. I loved it! While M/M romance may not be everyone's choice, a love story like Fast Forward deserves to be told. After all, "Love is everything."

Loved this Second Chance Romance!

This moving, and sensual romance captured my heart and wouldn't let go. This was a quick emotional love story about awakenings, forgiveness, and second chances. Jesson and Ian meet again after a heartbreaking separation 7 years earlier. This short story is expertly told in flashback sequence. It beautifully shows their first meeting, passionate affair and now their battle for forgiveness and true love.
The narrator,Tristan James, did a wonderful job setting the scenes and conveying both men's emotions. This is the first time I've heard James and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Even though this is a quick and short story, it has a depth that makes it totally satisfying. I definitely recommend this book.

Wow! Really good novella!

Any additional comments?

Fast forward is about Ian and Jessen. There pretty opposite, but Have intense chemistry. Ian is quit, Jessen is more out going . I wasn't fond of Jessen for a little bit, but he redeems himself. This was a fast passed story, with all the feels. I couldn't put it down once I started . The narrator did a great job as well. I can't wait to listen to more books by this author:)
