Length: 8 hrs and 4 mins

Publisher's summary

They don't play for the same team. Or do they?

Jamie Canning has never been able to figure out how he lost his closest friend. Four years ago, his tattooed, wisecracking, rule-breaking roommate cut him off without an explanation. So what if things got a little weird on the last night of hockey camp the summer they were 18? It was just a little drunken foolishness. Nobody died.

Ryan Wesley's biggest regret is coaxing his very straight friend into a bet that pushed the boundaries of their relationship. Now, with their college teams set to face off at the national championship, he'll finally get a chance to apologize. But all it takes is one look at his longtime crush, and the ache is stronger than ever.

Jamie has waited a long time for answers but walks away with only more questions - can one night of sex ruin a friendship? If not, how about six more weeks of it?

When Wesley turns up to coach alongside Jamie for one more hot summer at camp, Jamie has a few things to discover about his old friend...and a big one to learn about himself.

Warning: Contains sexual situations, hotties on hockey skates, skinnydipping, shenanigans in an SUV, and proof that coming out to your family on social media is a dicey proposition.

5 star listen!!

Audio is my favorite way to re-read a book. I loved him when I read it, I loved Him even more listening to it.

The narrators were FANTASTIC. Really captures Wes and Jamie's characters. Love that they were able to get 2 male narrators, it really makes a difference. I could listen to them talk all day.

Here is my review of the story:
I SO loved this book!!

I'm a big fan of Elle Kennedy and Sarina Bowen so when I learned they were writing a book together I was so excited! To learn that it was M/M was the frosting on the cake.

What I loved about this book:
- The writing. Seriously. I can't believe it was written by 2 people. It was seamless and so easy to read.
- Friends to lovers - Jamie and Wes - despite not having seen each other for a while - know each other. They have history and their relationship goes deeper than a spark attraction.
- Chemistry - omg. I loved the chemistry between Jamie and Wes. I loved Jamie's self discovery. In the beginning of the book he is straight, then as he recognizes his attraction to Wes he realizes he maybe isn't as straight as he thought he was. The sex between these two is HOT!

This is a light, easy, sexy, romantic read. Not to much angst or drama. But it kept me turning the pages - I couldn't get enough. It was one of those - I can't stop reading, but I don't want it to end so maybe I should take a break so it will last longer - no way I need to see what happens next!!

I highly recommend!!

Some of the quotes I highlighted:

"It's not an exaggeration to say I've always felt a little more alive when he's around. Life is just a little brighter, a little louder wherever Wes is."

"He doesn't need skill - he just needs to be here. Him. Here. With me."

"My dick and I reached an understanding."
"Yeah? And what's that?" I ask curiously.
He shrugs. "We both like you."

Bottom line: read it. Or listen to it. Better yet, do both!!

Absolutely Great Story!!

Everything about this book was top notch! From the great storytelling, narrative and scorching sex scenes this book exceeds 5 stars on all accounts. It's a feel good book that I listened straight thru. I love the characters, their honest pragmatic reactions to real life obstacles and of ccourse - happy endings. I just know I will listen to this book over and over again.

Fantastic story + great narration = <3 <3

First book I've listened to with dual narrators and loved both voices. The story is one of my favourites and it was only made richer by being read aloud. These characters are in my top five favourites for NA characters.

These narrators are addictive!

Wow! I'm so glad I took a chance on this audiobook. I got totally wrapped up in this story about two hockey players who find each other again after a fallout. The two narrators do an amazing job of building up the sexual tension between these men. Some of the scenes are smoking hot and the stuff of jock fantasies. I now have to listen to the next book in this series and start following these narrators!

Him

I don’t know who I loved more Wes or Jamie. I hate to admit this is my first Elle Kennedy book but this is definitely Sarina Bowen at her best. I adored everything about this book! No I can’t wait to read Us.

Wow! HOT🔥🔥

This book was amazing. Great story and fantastic narration. Don't know why I waited so long to listen. Worth a credit.

Love is Love

I love these lighthearted and sweet stories. It's a testament that no matter how much time goes by or how far apart you are whether it's with your best friend or your partner (or in this case both) love wins out! Teddy Hamilton and Jacob Morgan are the perfect pairing for Wes and Jamie!

Awesome Read

This book was great. I liked how Jamie and Ryan fell in love. The two narrators made the people in the story believable and it made listening to "HIM" really great. The relationship between Jamie and Ryan was wonderful. I hope there will be a sequel to this . I won't give away any spoilers but the ending was perfect but there should be a follow up to what happens to Jamie and Ryan.

In Love

loved the easy the characters alternated telling the story from their view point. hot story...

I don't usually write reviews, but this one;)!

Would you listen to HIM again? Why?

I would listen to HIM again, again and fucking again. I never write reviews, but this book deserves it. I was so hooked from the beginning that couldn't stop listening until the end.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I definitely don't have a favourite character because I don't like to limit my love for just one character. All I have to say is, I loved the story that I couldn't stop listening.

Have you listened to any of Teddy Hamilton and Jacob Morgan ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't listened to any of their performances before, but I'm definitely checking their stuff now.

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

Like I said, I can't pick one character over the other so I would go out to dinner with the two of them.
