Men of Smithfield: Adam and Holden

De: L.B. Gregg

Narrado por: Shannon Gunn

Holden Worthington's globetrotting days are over. Once the host of a popular adventure show, he hasn't ventured past his own front door in more than a year. Then the arrival of a sexy new gardener sparks something Holden hasn't felt in a very long time - an interest in the world outside his window.

Holden tries to resist the attraction. But painfully shy yet definitely interested Adam Morgan has Holden longing to conquer his debilitating anxiety and live again. After a grisly discovery on the grounds of the estate, the town of Smithfield turns a suspicious eye on the reclusive Holden - and the two men must trust in each other to bring the truth out in the open.

Ok story but...

It seem the Perform I was channeling Paul Lynn. I was waiting for the Paul Lynn chuckle.

Would have been better with out that gay accent.

What happened??

The story was good, and I started listening right after I’d read Mark and Tony’s Smithfield story, which I loved. I thought the narrator did a great job on Mark andTony, but I couldn’t make it to the end of Adam and Holden because Holden’s voice was so annoying! Another reviewer likened it to Comedian Paul Lynde, and that’s exactly right. It was unbearable. Get the book, but read it, don’t listen.

The writing was terrific & the narration was outstanding. Best of the series!

I discovered this series because I fell in love with Shannon Gunn’s narration of Ella Frank’s “Temptation” series (Tate & Logan 4Ever❤️) so I looked for more by him. The series overall has been very entertaining, but this is by far the best of the bunch, and Mr. Gunn gave a stellar performance. His voices were so different from anything I’ve heard from him so far. He’s amazing — and terribly underutilized, IMO. Usually I can’t stand an effeminate MC, but Holden is hysterical. I was greatly amused throughout, and actually burst out laughing a few times. Shannon Gunn I a go-to narrator for me, and now I’ll add LB Gregg to my list of go-to authors.

All i could hear was Roger from American Dad

What did you love best about Men of Smithfield: Adam and Holden?

The story was sweet and the characters were delightfully broken. I got the feeling that Adam was maybe slightly autistic but still a strong and functioning person.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Men of Smithfield: Adam and Holden?

two little girls and a fat dog walking down the street.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

All i could imagine in the place of Holden was a short grey alien with a giant head. I believe that seth macfarlane modeled him on paul lynde which is another name being thrown around the reviews! it was distracting made the story seem slightly ridiculous!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

i imagined roger the alien from American Dad having gay sex. that was pretty funny :)

A great narrator makes a big difference

Great narrator. his performance sold the story and made it a joy to listen to. I laughed several times, especially at the end.
