Publisher's summary

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.... Since 9/11, Brooklyn firefighter Griff Muir has wrestled with impossible feelings for his best friend and partner at Ladder 181, Dante Anastagio. Unfortunately, Dante is strictly a ladies’ man, and the FDNY isn’t exactly gay-friendly. For ten years, Griff has hidden his heart in a half-life of public heroics and private anguish. Griff’s caution and Dante’s cockiness make them an unbeatable team. To protect his buddy, there’s nothing Griff wouldn’t do…until a nearly bankrupt Dante proposes the worst possible solution: HotHead.com, a gay porn website where uniformed hunks get down and dirty. And Dante wants them to appear there - together. Griff may have to guard his heart and live out his darkest fantasies on camera. Can he rescue the man he loves without wrecking their careers, their families, or their friendship?

Excellent narration

I liked this book when I first read it, but what makes this version especially outstanding is the narration. It was amazing and brought the story to life. Mr. David's voice is so expressive you could hear all the various moods and emotions. Just excellent.

Holy Hot Heads!!!

An emotionally charged read that will have you rooting for this adorable couple. Griff & Dante are just too cute for words.

The fire service isn't exactly accepting

As a firefighter this book wasn't just a story, it was an inspiration that gave me hope for a future I sometimes doubt is possible for me. Thanks Damon, I hope you continue this story with another book.

wow! very hot book!!!

This book was so hot! Great story. Sorry it had to end! Hope there are more like it.

Great story great narration

It took me a minute to get into the story, but the dialogue is snarky and hilarious, and the narrator Charlie David makes it even better. I laughed out loud many times, and actually teared up many times. Great book I read it two years ago, and was delighted to read again today (Audible)

Perfect!

This was one of the most erotic, enjoyable and painfully cute stories I have read/listened. There is such a raw authenticity to the plot that most of the gay stories out there can't grasp. Although I was miffed over a couple plot holes, you really can't deny the power of this sweet story.

The book is a little dated but good

Wonderful performance and emotionally satisfying

Where does Hot Head rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is one of the best novels I've ever listened to, in any genre. I have several scenes bookmarked and will listen to them again.

Have you listened to any of Charlie David’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I'd read the Boy who Came In From The Cold. I hadn't been super impressed then, but that was a bit of an annoying book to begin with. This one is MUCH better, and I was blown away by his performance.

What more can I say

Wow. what a great story and excellent narration. Awesome Awesome Awesomeness. I sort of wish there was a sequel because I loathe to let it go.

beautifully written

I couldn't take a break from listening, so fascinated by this wonderfully written story of personal acceptance of love and masculinity, good hearts within the structure of an urban community filled with expectations. Very sensitively handled. Dantes voice was horribly overdone, whiny, and I truly do not believe it reflected Suede's intent. Both heroes are immaculate in their seach3s... and their destinatiin. I will listen to it again, because I am so taken by the poetry of the story.
