Limerence

Famous Young Things

De: Scarlett Drake

Narrado por: Nathan Wolfe, Harley Chase

Felix
Dancing is everything to me. It’s the mother I lost, the father who never sees me. It’s the fiery love of my life, and I’ll defend it to my last breath—that’s what it means to be the lead principal at one of the best ballet companies in the world. Just when I thought I was on top, my greatest rival—my eternal nemesis—waltzes back into my life: Nicoló Savini. The ache in my bones and the bane of my existence.

If he thinks I’ll sit back and let him steal my spotlight, he’s sorely mistaken. No one’s taking this from me—not my father, not my ridiculously hot rival, and certainly not the confusing feelings that twist inside me every time I see Nico dance up close. He’ll regret coming here, to my city, my company. I’ll make damn sure of it.

Nico
Felix Taylor-Brooke has been my fiercest competition for years. I should loathe everything about him: his entitlement, his arrogance, that painfully captivating beauty. Felix was born for ballet; I was forged by it. People call us rivals, but that’s just the surface matter. Anyone who bothers to look any closer would see there’s something else simmering beneath, something we’ve both been fighting against for years.

When I walked away from ballet two years ago, I thought I was free. But then I was offered the one thing I’d always wanted, and I knew I’d regret not seeing this through. I know he’ll hate it, and I know he’ll likely make my life a waking nightmare, but honestly, I don’t sleep that well anyway. We might kill each other, but if we don’t, then we might be about to take on the greatest roles of our lives.

Incredible story & narration

Scarlett Drake never misses with her writing or her audiobooks! These narrators are perfect, and I'm so happy to hear fresh voices instead of the same ones we always hear in MM books. And those 🌶 scenes... 🫠🥵💀🔥 Everyone needs to listen to this!

Best Audio

This is most likely the best audio I’ve listened to all year. The story was so well written and the narrators did an AMAZING job.

Nico and Felix 4eva!

I loved this book! Narration was delicious! Sex was 🔥! (love how felix owned his sexuality)

💥Outstanding💥

I haven't left a written review in a long time; but I couldn't Not leave a review on the magnificence that is this beautifully written and narrated book. Just click on the bottom and press play. ohhhhh Scarlett D.you never disappoint...

so good- finished is less then 24 hrs

This author is becoming one of my favorite romance writers. I loved this story. It sweet, heartfelt, funny, and sexy. Definitely a 5 star read and maybe even a 6 star read!

Rivals to lovers ballet boys?! I AM OBSESSED

OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS THIS BOOK IS INCREDIBLE. I'm a huge Scarlett Drake fan, and Limerance was one of my most anticipated reads of the year. I can say right now, this book is her best yet, and it had EVERYTHING I could have wanted and more. Incredibly endearing characters who feel REAL. SO much ballet, and the BEST rivals to lovers vibes. Banter, tension, SPICE. Some fun references that had me RUNNING to Scarlett's DMs to SCREAM about them. There is EVEN A SOUP SCENE. DO NOT miss out on this book, it's incredible and I cannot wait for it to be out in the world!

I'm a sucker for swoon, and y'all, this book is freaking SWOONY. Not only does it have the amazing storytelling that Scarlett is known for, but every interaction between Felix and Nico is meaningful and moves the story along. I'm still not totally sure with character I love more. Felix is a total trip. He's arrogant and to all appearances incredibly self-absorbed, but he's a marshmallow on the inside and truly cares about those in his inner circle. And Nico! Oh my goodness, total book husband material. YEARS of pining over a man who seems to hate him, playing the long game for a chance to share a moment on stage, GAH. His level of devotion and care had me MELTING - TONS of caretaking. On top of all that, I LOVE how Scarlett writes spice, and how meaningful it all is.

The writing in this book - it's next level. I could picture each scene so vividly, and when I say these characters felt real, seriously, it's like I KNOW them. And if you like ballet, dance figures so prominently in this book, there's a LOT of it. Scarlett had me over here looking up specific moves and dances - I know very little about ballet, but now I'm pretty feral for it. I need more!

I have to mention the narrators here - Nathan Wolfe and Harley Chase are EXCEPTIONAL. This one has some EXTREMELY high quality voice acting and I cannot get enough. I did an audio reread of the book several months after I read the eBook and it was like experiencing the whole story again for the first time. I'm particularly obsessed with Harley's performance - literally stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard his voice. Will absolutely be looking for more books narrated by them both!

I'm SO grateful for the opportunity to read this one early, but I'm SO excited for release because there are just so many fun things in this book to discuss, including one scene that had me CRYING it was so cute. There are teasers about the next book as well, which I already know I will go nuts over. Truly a masterpiece y'all, and definitely a new favorite of mine.

Nico & Felix 💕

This book was utter perfection! Scarlett thank you for writing this beautiful story that takes place in the ballet world. Her attention to detail was magnifique!

Going on my list of all time favorite books.

Everything I’ve read by this author is so beautifully written, and this is no different. It’s not your typical MM romance while simultaneously being everything you love about MM romance. All the feels, and so spicy!
