Safe Harbor

Pine Cove, Book 1

De: HJ Welch

Narrado por: Nick J. Russo

Robin Coal wonders if asking his straight housemate Dair to be his fake boyfriend for his high school reunion will be the worst thing he’s ever done…or the best. But there’s no way he’s going home to face his abusive ex alone, and former Marine Dair is just the protection he needs. So long as he doesn’t find out about Robin’s secret crush, everything will be fine.

Mechanic Dair Epping never expected to spend a week sharing a bed with his adorkable friend; however, pretending to be bi is easier than he imagined. He knows he’ll do anything to keep Robin safe from his ex-boyfriend, but as the chemistry between them grows, the line between fake and reality begins to blur.

Could Dair actually be bi? Even if he was, would an ex-Marine really be interested in a computer geek like Robin? When his ex’s intentions turn dangerous, how far will Dair go to protect the man he’s falling for?

Safe Harbor is a steamy, standalone MM romance novel with a guaranteed HEA and absolutely no cliffhanger.

Great start of a series

It’s a sweet story of two roommates who started out as fake boyfriends turned to lovers. Dair’s sexual awakening made the book more interesting for me, since he’s always identified as straight. Robin was adorable although his naivety was driving me batty. It was irritating at times. Thank goodness for a great support system and for Dair.

It’s light on the angst, although don’t be surprised if you get frustrated with Robin or if you wanna punch Mac’s throat.

Nick J Russo’s performance in this book was amazing. His voiced the characters individually and real well.

The way Pine Cove is being described, it makes me wanna move to that beautiful town. So I’ll live vicariously through the rest of the characters in this series.

I Love Dair!

Safe Harbor is the first book in the Pine Cove series, a contemporary romance series set within a small town. Safe Harbor features the following tropes: fake-boyfriends, gay/bi/pan-awakening, and protective love interest. I love all of these tropes and really enjoyed this sweet story. There were times when the book plot was a little melodramatic, but the characters were so wonderful I didn’t even care. I loved how tender and sweet the big, tough, former-Marine Dair was. He was like Snow White but as a veteran mechanic.

Dare is my new favorite!

I'm never really sure about the gay for you characters or even just the I'm attracted to the person not the gender, simply because it usually seems so unbelievable but this was done so expertly that you can't help but fall in love with Robin and Dare. You felt every emotion play out for Dare as he contemplated the attraction. So well done! Bravo!!

veyr good

i enjoy this narrator. he does a good job figuring out everyones personalities and how to make them work well.. it was sexy and interesting.. funny and action packed. very good

Much better than expected

4 Blue Roses
4 Blue Flames

Nick J Russo's deep, sexy voice lends itself perfectly to this audiobook.
I was surprised by the action and angst and found myself emotionally engulfed and almost screaming at the ex-boyfriend as he manipulated and almost killed and drowned Robin.

How stupid of Robin to go into the row boat with his ex-boyfriend. Rocks have more brains!
Robin Coal needed to go home for his 10 year reunion. He asked his housemate Dair to be his fake boyfriend. Dair is retired from the US Marines, dripping with sexyness and totaly oblivious to the attraction between Robin and himself.

I recommend this audiobook for when you are in the mood for some lighthearted romantic comedy dipped in some syrupy sexy times.
Happy Listening
