Runner

De: Parker Williams

Narrado por: Patrick Zeller

Matt Bowers' life ended at 16, when a vicious betrayal by someone who he should have been able to trust left him a shell of himself, fighting OCD and PTSD, living in constant fear, and always running. When he buys a remote tract of land, he thinks he’s found the perfect place to hide from the world and attempt to establish some peace. For 10 years, he believes he’s found a measure of comfort, until the day a stranger begins to run on Matt’s road.

He returns every day, an unwelcome intrusion into Matt’s carefully structured life. Matt appeals to the local sheriff, who cannot help him since the jogger is doing nothing wrong. Gradually, after tentatively breaking the ice, Matt begins to accept the man’s presence.

But when the runner doesn’t show up one day, it throws Matt’s world into chaos, and he must make the hardest decision of his life.

Strong story of Love and Acceptance

One of the best books I have ever listened to. Great character development and pace of story. My only wish is it was longer....more of Charlie and Matt..

A touching story

Oh wow! There are not many books that move me so much I would read (listen to)over and over but this is one. I loved both Matt and Charlie and even Clay Matt's brother. And this cover? Oh yes!

Matt has had a bad experience in high school that wrecked his life. Now he lives way out in the country alone. He has a bad case of OCD and PTSD. He doesn't deal with people at all, lives off his land, growing his own food, canning, freezing, etc. I admire Matt a lot. and yet my heart goes out to him.

A Runner begins running on his road and disrupts his schedule. He calls his brother Clay, the local sheriff, to get him to get the runner to stop.

This story is very heart-wrenching. I was sucked in from the beginning and couldn't put it down! I loved all the characters; I loved Matt and my heart went out to him. I could relate to him and wanted to hug him. I admired Charley but there was a twist that shocked me and I cried for Matt. The storyline is beautiful, the story well written and I highly, highly recommend this book to anyone that loves M/M contemporary romance!

I thought this couldn't be beaten, but listening to it was even better than reading. Patrick Zeller did a great job of keeping you engrossed in the story. I listened in one afternoon.

Good book

Good book, with at times a sad plot, but made in a good and spellbinding way.
Enjoyable narrator.

Like the book

I started off not liking this book but as I kept listening I started to like this book I like the way the young brother loved his older brother and would not give up on him. And I also love the runner he was loving kind and patients I will kept the book in my library great book

An Amazingly Beautiful Read!

It isn't often when one can see themselves portrayed in a work, but I did with this beautiful piece. It was deep, a little cheesy at times, but kept me captivated the entire time.
