Can't Touch

De: Chara Croft

Narrado por: Michael Pauley

I lucked into the perfect roommate this year: Pretty to look at, eager to please, happy to do any and every damn thing I want, sometimes even before I know I want it. And even though I'm here on a football scholarship, not some kind of brainiac academic one like he is, I'm still smart enough to know I shouldn't mess with a good thing.

It's why I gave myself one rule: Hands off pretty little Sean Cabot.

I mean, shouldn't be too hard, right? There are plenty of other willing twinks available to keep me happy this year, so there's no need to obsess about the only one I told myself I can't touch....

Can’t Touch is a 54,000-word gay college romance between a cocky jock and the sweet, sheltered boy who just wants to be good for him. Listen to it if you like bossy jocks, boys who like it that way, unapologetic power imbalances, and a hefty dose of praise kink. Pass if that's not your jam or you're looking for something deep, dark, or angsty.

Light and funny

This book is not for the overly sensitive. It's for whatever fulfillment you sought when reading the publisher's summary. If you read it and expect something else, that's on you.

Personally, I found it cute and hilarious. The jock is such an idiot 🤣🤣 but in a very "boss" way. Loved it. Couldn't stop laughing

"Olympic gold medalist in the sport of f***ing." Michael Pauley delivered this line perfectly 👏 and I couldn't control the laughter 🤣 🤣

steamy steamy steamy

I loved it. my first MM on audible. I've read plenty of MM with a submissive and dominant, but hearing it vocalized was a better experience than I was expecting. The story was to the point and very steamy. I would recommend it for a short read that you can't pause.

Unexpected delight

Be prepared to really want to listen in one sitting.I wish I could listen for the first time again. But i’ll have to settle for many re-listens.

Fabulous!

This is one of my favorite books ♥. Chara Croft always has the best characters.

Sweet and Sexy

I have this ebook and already loved it, but the audio makes it so much better!! Sean is the absolute sweetest boy ever, and Tyson falling for him is so fun to listen to. I love these two!
This is a hot, sweet, sexy listen!

Hot story and good narrator

I loved the story when I wmread it, and the audio was very hot as well!

The narrator did a great job with the internal dialogue and giving different voices to the characters, but I found that the transition from thought to speach was often very awkward and abrupt, sometimes making it hard to tell that it had switched from thinking to speaking.

Overall, a good listen!

Michael and Chara Are An Excellent Team--Very Hot!

Michael did an amazing job with both of their voices--Sean's breathy, shy one and Tyson's deeper jock voice. He switches back and forth between them so effortlessly it's easy to feel the two guys are right there, living the story with you. And the sex scenes felt very real without feeling overdone (and there's a lot of sex in this book!). As for the story, I love this author's ability to take a very dirty scene and make it so sweet at the same time. I love the praise kink, and how Tyson loves making his boy feel so good. There is a remembered scene of the mother abusing Sean as a teenager, and it's pretty horrible, but it's very brief (and I think it's currently part of the sample). I loved getting to hear Sean and Tyson's story, and I hope this author and narrator team up for future titles, both more of this couple and other couples too!

Oh heck yes, Ms. Croft—NAILED IT!

I found this when I was searching via the LGBT tag and I cannot even describe how excited I am to have found it. Firstly—wtf Audible?! This was released in Sept 2019 and I am just now seeing it?!? This is an absolute HIDDEN GEM and deserves way more credit than it has gotten.

Holy buckets of milk, this book is pure steam and sweetness and I loved every GD second of it. On top of that, the angst level is so small it’s nonexistent. There are NOT enough M/M authors out there willing to go where Chara Croft did and then to do it in a well-written manner, make it into an audiobook AND get Michael Pauley to narrate it?! Best. Credit. I’ve. Ever. Spent.

so steamy

Michael Pauley/Dean did a fantastic job narrating this fantastically hot story. I loved Sean and Tyson. This audio had the perfect blend of story and steam. I didn't want it to end!

Wow! Passionate Narrator!

I swear to God! This narrator was at full mass the entire time. Rough gravelly voice! Dominant and possessive. I thought my 👖 🦵 was wet 🐕. For real. I don’t know why this didn’t show up in my LGBT search results. But I wish it would have. Because it’s definitely worth the credit. I wish I could of gotten a couple of hours to see what happened in the summer. But I can wait for another book 🤞. Way to go!
