Clashing Hearts

An Enemies to Lovers, Gay Romance Novel (A Hometown Jasper Novel)

De: Nicky James

Narrado por: Nick J. Russo

Easton

There is nothing I hate more than when some big-city outsider stirs trouble in my peaceful little town. When Mr. Arrogance himself waltzes in and thinks he can slap a price tag on my land, he doesn’t know what he has coming. I’m not just a hick cowboy who’s going to bend to his good looks and charmless personality. No, sir.

I don’t care how smart he looks in his fancy suits, all he cares about is money.

I just wish I’d known who he was before I kissed him.

Lachlan

The last thing I wanted was to get stuck in a small town with a plethora of quirky people. If the stubborn cowboy doesn’t see sense soon, I don’t know what I’ll do. Failure is not an option. I was sent to make a deal, and I’m not leaving until it’s done.

I don’t care how hot he looks in his low hanging denim, boots, and hat, he wouldn’t see a good opportunity if it smacked him in the face.

I just wish I could get the taste of him off my tongue.

City and country collide in this enemies-to-lovers, opposites attract, low-angst MM romance novel.

Even better in audio

Wow. I loved this book when it was released but I love it even more now. Nick Russo did a fabulous job bringing these characters to life and giving me all the feels. I adore the voices he used in this narrations and they're exactly how I imagined them in my head. This narration was PERFECT. 10/10 Will listen again.

Best story ever!

This story was engaging from the first paragraph. One of the few (out of hundreds) I have read that drew me in and wouldn’t let go. The epilogue was well done (instead of tricking me with a teaser about the next book…which never works on me). This is among my top all-time books!

A sweet and steamy enemies to lovers romance!

This was such a sweet, swoon worthy enemies to lovers romance.

Easton and Lachlan are opposites in every way and clash when they first meet. Their chemistry is intense and palpable and their instant dislike to eachother is apparent.
But their desire for eachother is stronger than their differences and they realize that they have much more in common that they thought.

This was a feel good, cosy low angst Listen. Nick J. Russo performed a stellar audio delivery as always!

Excellent!!!

Great story with tension and excitement but primarily a wonderfully appealing romantic story. Well harassed.

Perfection

Nick did an awesome job bringing this book to life. Let’s just say swooning over Easton

I can’t scream enough how much I love this book. If I had like one hour left in the day, I would have read the whole book in one day. I could not put these men down. Nicky sucked me in from the beginning and took me on one heck of a journey of finding love. This is one heck of an opposites attract and enemies to lovers book.

Easton is a hard working cowboy working his ranch. He is a family guy and just wants someone for himself to live a happy life with a ranch full of kids. He is stubborn, loyal, honest, and has a huge heart.

Lachlan is the COO of his fathers company and the pressure and insults he takes is unbearable. He is spoiled,judgmental, untrusting, insecure, and sexy.

Their paths cross when Lachlan is sent to buy up the land that Easton owns to develop it. Man, there is instant attraction but Easton can see the type of person Lachlan is from ten feet away. These two throw insults like no other and set aflame to the fire every time they are near each other.

As they spend time together, walls are let down and the city slicker starts to love the country life. Although they are total opposites, they just mesh.

Pick up this book. You won’t be disappointed. I am so excited to have found out there is more to this series and we will see more of them in the future. I loved Easton’s family. I loved Lachlan’s brother. I just found his way into my heart right from the beginning. And the biggest love I found was with Percy. I love me a country man and a city slicker. 🌆🌄

Canadian Cowboy

Nick's performance was great as always. But, who thought it was a good idea for the Campbells to have a drawl? Canadians have their own fabulous dialect. Not all cowboys speak with a Texas drawl. The drawl and last names for first names are mainstays for south of the Mason-Dixon line. Easton's drawl was much like my own!

I had a hard time liking Lachlan through most of the chapters which was necessary for the story. I loved Easton and Percy together which just had to work out!

Once I settled in, I enjoyed the story very much. Good feels.

So good!

Definitely going on my top 5 favorites of all time. I always prefer two narrator books so there is distinction between the characters, I just feel it makes it easier to listen and follow and much more dynamic, but Nick goes back and forth between the characters voices so seamlessly and you almost forget it’s only one person doing both characters, truly awesome narration.

I am a sucker for enemies to lovers trope and Nicky does an excellent job of making you REALLY dislike a character and essentially going on the same journey with East to grow to like and eventually love him. Not sure if that was the intent, but truly such a good story!

Cowboy and Cityboy Joy!

This is my first Nicky James book and was reading the book when I wasn't listening to it!.. The story is captivating, I absolutely loved the characters,, Very emotional story, pushed all my buttons! I totally hated Lachlan's dad.. I also loved the interaction between the main characters from the time they met, and Percy... omg .
I am on to the second book in the series!

Another stellar novel by Ms J!

I always do a happy dance when Nicky James has a new book coming out, because she is a Boss in story-telling. Because that is what this is, a captivating story, that captures the reader and doesn’t let go until the last word. She puts it all in there; character building, a plot, primary and secondary characters, who serve the purpose of holding the readers’ attention and not letting it slip. I loved every single part of this book and recommend the writer to lovers of romance novels. ❤️

Great start to this series!!

Okay, Nicky James is just an auto buy author now. This was a fantastic start to a small town romance series, and I loved it. Opposites attract…
