H.L. Day
Sometimes, death can feel like the only escape.
It's been a year since Alex stopped living. He exists. He breathes. He pretends to be like everyone else. But, he doesn't live. Burdened by memories, he dreams of the day when he can finally be free. Until that time comes, he keeps everybody at bay. It's been easy so far. But he never factored in meeting a man like Austin.
Hard-working mechanic Austin has always gone for men as muscular as himself. So, it's a mystery why he's so bewitched by the slim, quiet man with the soulful brown eyes who works in the library. The magnetic attraction is one thing, but the protective instincts are harder to fathom. Austin's sure though, that if he can only earn Alex's trust, then the two of them could be perfect together.
A tentative relationship begins. But Alex's secrets run deep. Far deeper than Austin could ever envisage. Time is ticking. Events are coming to a head, and love is never a magic cure. Oblivious to the extent of Alex's pain, can Austin discover the truth? Or is he destined to be left alone, only able to piece together the fragments of his boyfriend's history, once its already too late?
Trigger warning: Please be aware that this story deals with suicidal ideation and other dark themes. If this is a subject you find uncomfortable with, then this book is not recommended. Despite this, there is a guaranteed HEA.

well, that was tough. Please be aware of the trigger warnings before you pick up this book. While it is in some sense a heart warming hurt / comfort story, Alex's horrors and past takes up most of the book and it lends a horrible sadness to the entire text.
The narration is very well done and the writing is engaging. I was engaged all the way through the book and felt for Alex. Unfortunately the romance part of the book is slightly less well done, as it seems a tad unbelievable that Austin would fall in love with Alex. He is, in many ways, a completely empty shell. But if you accept that, it works.
It is not an easy story, nor is there any fluff. There are few moments of happiness at all, and almost all of those are in the past, up until the very end. In fact, I was worried at one point that we would not actually get a happy ending. For those that need that - like me - I'll leave the small spoiler that it does end well in the end - or at least on a very hopeful note.
Tough read!

Austin is a great character. He's caring, hard working, and incredibly patient and gentle with Alex. He is also a bit blinded by love, but I like that about him. It's lovely to see the cracks Austin is able to make in Alex's frozen heart.
The narrator's performance was perfection. I don't think any of the many narrators I adore could have done any better. I hope he continues along this path, as I'd love to hear more from him.
The combination of a wonderful story and a fabulous narrator make it easy to rate this story highly, and I have no qualms about recommending this audiobook to others. Be aware though, it does include violence and suicidal thoughts.
Difficult but worth it

There’s always an inherent risk with new narrators, especially when they are performing a favorite book, but I was impressed with this audiobook and very happy to revisit characters who had so much heart and a story that was incredibly memorable. If you like hurt/comfort romances that give you heart pangs as much as it warms your heart, I’d highly recommend Edge of Living.
