Publisher's summary

***This is book one in a gay romantic suspense series.***

Detective Remington frickin' hates the missing persons detail, but a cold fury builds in the pit of his stomach when he realizes that over the past three months six boys have disappeared from the smaller communities that surround the greater Phoenix area. All reported to be runaways looking to escape their shitty lives, but Remy's starting to put together a different picture and he doesn't like it one damn bit.

Inspector Jamie Mainwaring stares at the six reports, willing them to make sense. Six boys, six months, all from just outside of London, which meant six different investigations. All of the boys were between the ages of ten and fifteen, all purportedly runaways from dysfunctional families. Something was rotten in Denmark.

There are always runaways. Every small town loses them--every big city collects them. Kids look for freedom and discover they have more to lose than they ever thought possible. London and Phoenix, culture and cowboys, nothing linking these two sprawling metropolitan areas. Nothing except a hit on a computer data search.

Two cops, one a cowboy, the other a Lord. A secret government agency, human trafficking, and a blazing hot mutual distraction.

This is the first installment in the Separate Ways Series. The books should be enjoyed in the following order:

1. Continental Divide

2. Oceans Apart**

3. Moving Mountains**

4. Prevailing Winds**

**Coming soon to audio, other formats available.

overall the book was very good. the narrator did a excellent job at bringing the characters to life. was just disappointed with the end of the book

Amazing

This was such a treat to listen to. The first thing any listeners should know is that this story takes place over 4 books; so this one is only 25% of the story. The good news is that all 4 books are published. The bad news is that only this one is in audiobook so far. And that is really a shame because this is an AMAZING narrator. He is not reading the story, he is performing it. He really brought these characters to life, and not just the MC. As for the story, all I can say is I am committed to reading all four books. I bought the 2nd before I even finished this one because I knew I wanted to continue with this couple. The writing is great and the characters have warmth and depth. Jaime is an English Earl who has decided to somewhat reject the trappings of his birthright and become a Scotland Yard inspector. Remy is an American detective that can’t seem to fit in and has a traumatic past. They are brought together to uncover an international human trafficking scheme. The story does not evolve in the “traditional” mm romance way; which is why I am so intrigued. The narrator, who I think is British, performs wonderfully with both the very upper crust accent for Jamie and the American accent for Remy. Definitely worth a credit.

I am just a sucker I have decided...

I really enjoyed this, Laura. It turned out to be quite the read. and Dax, you did good. Listener, I kept this one. I say try it..it may not be your "cup of tea", but the subject matter is everywhere from funny to disturbing, loving to "Good God Really!?"..um, huh...

I Want More

Any additional comments?

Since I get to enjoy books during my cross-country road trips, my only disappointment is that the sequels aren't yet available on audio.

Love this series

loved it. Great story. well developed characters. love the British accent. I have this series in ebook format and really enjoyed the entire series. I am very pleased with the translation to audio.

SO GOOD!!!!

Fantastic writing & the narrator was top notch! Can't wait for the next book in the series! Loved how the book ended completely left opened with an air of mystery.

Potential to reach top ten

I like the m/m romances that have additional storylines besides the relationship the best and the cut and run series is an alltime favorite of mine. I Think maybe some might find this series too similar to that one, but the characters are their own and i enjoyed listening to the story. The love story isnt sweet but sort of rough and complicated by their vast differences but opposites attacts and all that. The best measure i Can give you On the quality of the story is that i will not Wait for the next books to be available On audio but bought the kindle version of the next allready.

Just WoW!!!

I kept skipping over this in my recommendation until I read the reviews as I never heard or read anything from these authors..
I'm sooo glad I took the gamble, not only is there a great storyline that kept you listening till the end but each character written had there own individual personalities which I liked, as some stories you read can tend to repeat personalities.
I think the narrator helped a lot with this he was awesome from his accents to the emotional tones he used for both main characters and secondary characters..I have to say that Dex is up there with Tristian James, KC Kelly and Paul Morey in reading M/M genre.. ( they are my fav)..
I'm not going to write anything about this story as I hate spoilers when reading reviews and there wasn't a cliff hanger but the only negative thing I have to say is waiting for the next book in this series to come out in audible.. I can usually wait but with this series I'm going to go buy the books and read them as I just have to find out what happens to Remy And James.
All in all fantastic
Worth the dollars or credit

Brilliant !

Excellent performance. I don't know if Mr. Fischer is British, but he did a bang up job. I like everything about it.

What does Dax Fischer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

he brought the story to life.

If you could take any character from Continental Divide out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Any additional comments?

Although the story needed more substance for the plot, the narration made up for that
