Publisher's summary

I’ve spent 44 years of my life telling the world I’m a carpet man. Is it too late to admit to myself and everyone else that deep down I’m really all about the hardwood?

It took me over 35 years to admit to myself that I’m gay, another seven to find the courage to say it out loud to anyone else, and exactly 30 seconds to develop a massive crush on my daughter’s music teacher. It’s really not my fault. Have you even seen those cute bowties he wears?

After everything it’s taken to get here, am I going to work up the nerve to come out to my ex-wife and my best friends?

Am I ready to shake up my comfortable, simple life and take a chance on Watson? Or, am I going to throw a wrench in my own chance for happily ever after?

Hardwood is a steamy, seriously with so much delicious tension, single-dad, gay awakening, low angst story, which happens to be the third in the Four Bears Construction Series. It can be listened to as a stand-alone. There are no shifters in this series, only the other kind of bears.

Good

I am a music teacher so I really loved the story line but I wanted to strangle Ev. How do you not come out to all your friends when they are all gay. Especially for that long of time. That just didn’t seem real to me. He was a coward that couldn’t stand up and tell his exwife the truth. But I love that Watson was patient with him. He was a great character!!!

K.m. Neuhold

- I actually read the kindle edition first and forgot how much I enjoyed the storyline. Decided to get the audiobook when I heard the sample. The narration was on point!! Everett and Watson’s bond is so cute!! . I was drawn in by the first chapter. As a black -queer lesbian, I’ve always been into M/M storylines.

Bravery, Courage and Romance


This one was downright adorable!

This is book 3 in the series and can be enjoyed as a standalone as well.

I love agood slowburn burn medium angst romance and this was the perfect blend of both.

I felt emotionally for the characters and rooted for them throughout.

Everett and Watson complemented eachother well.
I was proud to see Everett evolve as a character and be brave enough to date Watson.

This was a highly enjoyable listen overall.

Good... but...

Nice story. It’s hard to believe that a man in his forties who works in construction would be so indecisive, but the reader of that character sounds too much younger as well, so a bit disappointing.

Decent

Not as good as the first two books but definitely good enough to finish the series with the next book!

Be Yourself

This was a very special little story of Everette learning to be his authentic self. I was so ready for him to just be open with his friends. Watson is a patient person but he also has to think about his own happiness. I love the way the story turns out.
I listened to the audio version and enjoyed it very much.

Sadly sweet

This one while still sweet and snarky and fun has an underlying sadness to it. For me it was possibly a little too drawn out but overall it was a good continuation of the series with good narration.
