Green Light

Caffeine Daydreams, Book 2

By: Lark Taylor

Narrated by: Joel Leslie, David George

What is the true nature of the relationship between the guitarist and bassist of the world-famous rock band Caffeine Daydreams?

Kai

I should be happy. My childhood best friend and I are living our wildest dream—making music and touring the world as famous rock stars. I've got everything I could wish for.

Except him. I'll never have Silas. Not the way I want.

Our onstage behavior gives fans a lot to speculate over, but it's only an act.

The truth is, I die inside every time we touch. It might be pretend for Silas, but for me, it's a constant reminder that I can't have him the way I truly desire.

Then, a moment onstage leads me to a breaking point, and I can't bear the heartache any longer.

I need to find a way to only see Silas as a friend before I lose our friendship, and him, forever.

Silas

My life is split into two chapters: Before Kai and After Kai.

My childhood was a nightmare, a darkness I carried alone. But everything became brighter when I met Kai. He took me into his life, his family, his home.

Kai is more than my best friend. He's my everything.

Some people think our relationship is odd… that it's unusual for two friends to be as close as we are.

But everything about us makes sense. At least, that's what I believed.

When an onstage moment shines a light on the cracks in our foundation, my eyes are opened to a truth that's been right in front of me the entire time. A truth I want to explore.

But it's too late. Just when I'm ready for more, Kai's moving on.

One thing's for sure: I'm not giving up. No matter the risks.

Green Light is a bi-awakening, best friends-to-lovers MM rockstar romance. The second in the Caffeine Daydreams series, each book will follow a different couple as they find their HEA. Although better listened to in order, these books can stand alone.

Story Good, Narration Distracting

I enjoyed Book 2 of Caffeine Daydream and can't wait for Book 3. The narration, however, was half lackluster. Joel Leslie is one of my favorite narrators and one of the best at what he does. He brings so much life to a character and engages the listener. This pairing with David George was not a good one. The vast difference in energy and talent between the narrators was distracting for me and it decreased my enjoyment of Kai and Silas' love story. I do like this author and this series and look forward to the next installment.

Silas and Kai

This book was so great. A wonderful love story between two famous rock stars who are best friends and grew up together. It was such a sweet story but also had it moments when ur heart broke for the characters.

Great narration

Love the story, had more angst than I’m used to but the HEA was well deserved. Joel was great as usual. The narrator for Kai was really good too. Highly recommend.

A great book

After being introduced to all the characters in book one, continuing in book two. The romance between Kai and Silas is fraught but in the end these two get their HEA. I would recommend this entire series. Can’t wait to read book three.

Mismatched narrator’s spoiled this listen

I was hoping that I this sequel to White Noise would have remedied the narration issue it had and which I found very disappointing. But this story also has an interesting story line with likeable characters spoiled by one of the narrators.
If the whole thing had been narrated by Joel Leslie I would have given it 5 stars. However I found David George’s narration here very wooden with little inflection and almost no definition between characters. The jarring change between the 2 narratives was distracting an annoying, spoiling an otherwise enjoyable listen.
I’m still undecided whether I should risk a credit on Book 3 - I would like to know Arlo and Jack’s story though …

enjoyable new series

enjoying a new author and series. bought it because of joel love him as a narrator
