Publisher's summary

I've been in love with my best friend for years. The problem? He thinks I'm straight.

Now that I share a dorm with him, his insistent need to cuddle—and lack of clothes—are blurring the careful lines I've drawn. I'm struggling to keep my defenses up.

I love him, but I'm afraid. Afraid I'm not enough to make him stay. Afraid he'll rip my heart out. Afraid he won't love me back. But I see a side of him no one else does. In the security of our room, he lets his mask fall, lets me hold him.

Something lurks in the dark recesses of his mind that keeps him from going all in. He's just as hesitant about this as I am, but I don't understand why.

Can I convince him to let me love him the way he deserves… or will he take my heart and run away with it?

Wonderful 2nd book in the series

It seemed from Jeremy's perspection in the first book that Paul's love for Brendon was unrequited so it was wonderful to witness their love blossom in this book. Just as there were difficult things to see with Preston "Hidden Scars" the same could be said of Brendon in "Blurred Lines" - I feel the author tackles them with extreme care and although we witness some of the darker acts of human nature it is balanced with the hard one struggle to see the light and not only survive but thrive long after the abuse. There will be set backs but as long as you have love and acceptance in your life you can continue on and find happiness - these are great takeaways from this series thus far. The 🔥 love scenes also add value...so keep 'em coming...in more ways than one...lol 😉..

4 stars - worthy of a repeat listen

Great Dialogue

One more really good Teddy Hamilton feast; like the warmth in his voices that hints of fun. Iggy Toma was great foil as lively Brendan character. I also enjoyed the furtherance of my hockey education

Emotional love story

Love these boys, they are so in need not love. just like the first book the characters have traumatic experiences while growing up that change their perception of love. beautiful stories that develop beautiful love and there's Hockey.

Endearing friends to lovers

While not my favorite trope, I genuinely loved these two and their journey. Brendan’ adorable puppy dog personality and Paul’s steadfast, loving, stability were the perfect balance to each other. While they both faced emotional obstacles from their past, they never let it stop them from supporting each other. Cameos from Jeremy and Preston from Hidden scars and especially the antagonistic friendship between Preston and Brendan was a wonderful fun addition as well. And once again fantastically narrated by Iggy Toma and Teddy Hamilton. Iggy Toma perfectly captures the bubbly personality of Brendan making his character so endearing and Teddy Hamilton was perfect as Paul, supportive and sexy.

Perfection!!

Andi Jackson does it again! These narrators are becoming my absolute favorite as well. There was so much talent put into narrating this story, Just absolute perfection, one of my favorites… so far❤️

Even Better Than Book 1

I listened to the first book of Jeremy and Preston. It was really good — intense, too. However, book 2 with Paul and Brandon was just amazing. The way Andi Jackson painted the deep true love between the two of them was absolutely First Class. I loved it. Teddy Hamilton and Iggy Toma are so great together.

Great continuation of this series.

Loved the overlapping timeline between book 1 and 2; and like Preston and Jeremy in book 1, you can’t help but root for Paul and Brendon’s HEA.

Loved this story!

This was another great read that touched on all my feels. I adored Brendan’s child like personality that was a perfect match for the more serious Paul. A meant to be couple that deserved their HEA! Must read! Can’t wait for Nick and Carp’s story!!!!

Great story, but needed a bit more

Overall, I enjoyed this book. The narration was perfect, as usual with these two.

I always love a good friends to lovers story, especially when it involves too codependent BFFs this one did not disappoint in that department.

There were a couple of plot holes that I wish the author had plugged. For one of them, especially, there was an opportunity here that was lost.

I still recommend the story for fans of friends to lovers stories. Brendan and Paul are so sweet. And bonus, you get to see a little more of Jeremy and Preston.

I’m looking forward to the next installment of the series.

My heart

I loved the story so much. I love the interconnected series how well Andi Jaxon weaved their stories together. And of course Iggy Toma and Teddy Hamilton were amazeballs as narrators.
