One Giant Leap

De: Kay Simone

Narrado por: Greg Tremblay

Curtis "Launchpad" Larkin's career as an astronaut has had its share of ups and downs.

Alternately lauded as the single-handed savior of NASA and condemned as a reckless, hot-headed bully, Curt has been through the wringer of public opinion and come out on top. When he embarks on his final mission with NASA, Curt figures there's no curveball that life has left to throw him.

But when the role of spacecraft communicator is passed to a young engineer back in Houston who he's never met, Curt's mission takes on a new trajectory.

Patrick Harte's life is turned upside down when he's called to fill in at mission control, working directly under his hero, Curtis Larkin.

Falling for Curt is just a small step for Patrick - but it's one giant leap to think that the astronaut could ever return his feelings.

After Curt connects with Patrick from worlds away, he can't imagine life on earth without the other man...Despite the fact that he's never laid eyes on Patrick. And their problems won't stop once he's cleared for landing.

The bad-boy astronaut is no stranger to controversy - but will the genuine and soft-spoken man of his dreams be able to keep up with the trouble Curt seems to stir everywhere he goes?

Wow

Great narration!

I absolutely loved this story. The build up of the romance was wonderful. The dialogue between the two MC’s is so well written. The way the author weaves the past and present together is also superb. All around, this is just a great book.

Definitely a slow burn...but so worth it.

another winner by author and narrator

I'm a fan of both the author and the narrator, after much trial and error with bad combinations in the past. I'll read/listen to anything by either.

The story is sweet but appropriately dramatic and realistic. the tech jargon is accurate and the plays on names of real people are amusing. it's not too fast or too slow, and has just enough carrot to keep you wanting to finish. definitely recommend.

awwww

this was such a great story. I truly loved this story , such great leading characters.

A pleasure

An inventive romance. Great characters. Refreshingly tame in the way of sex without being sterile. Very sweet.

Narration

I love this story. The two main characters are very likable and so easy to root for. The friendship that builds between the couple and the characters around them is almost as important. I am really bummed that there is only one other book by Kay Simone on any online sites.
Now for the best part....Greg Tremblay!!!!! I will pretty much listen to anything he narrates. Whether it is M/M or M/F romance, he is incredible!

Excellent read

Fascinating read. I have no idea how much research author had to do for this book but it was really well written. Highly recommend

Slow burn but out of this world romance

This is an adorably sweet romance. The switch between main characters POV was done very well. Both MCs were likable and not so perfect that you wanted to hate them.

The technical aspects of NASA and space travel were entertaining and believable.

Great audio narration!

Recommend for those looking for a sweet, fluffy, M/M romance.

Great listen about finding love and space

A slow burn about the CAPCOM and Commander of Hermès Mission 1 finding love long distance. Can you fall in love when you are not on the same planet? Patrick Hart and Curt Larkin have never met but once they start talking they can’t stop. Amusing, heart warming story with some dramatic elements and a HEA. The narration is excellent.

Book hangover

This book and its audio are so amazing. I really loved the book since was innovative and captivating. Every time I listen to the audio, I can't shut it off. I end up with the worst book hangover, and I can't find anything that compares. I recommend this book and the audio.

A Sky Full of Stars For This One!

I’m late for the party but I wholeheartedly agree with each and every soul in this galaxy who said the same thing: this one is SO good. I don’t want it to end. May or may not have pressed rewind button needlessly again. 😆

I love everything about it, I love how well it’s written, I love the educational tidbits about space and life in out space and the hardship of every astronaut as they come back to earth, they were woven well to the story that it doesn’t feel like an info dump.
I love how the value of the things we take for granted are highlighted when one doesn’t have easy access to them (even things like ceiling fan).
I love this book. I wish there was more.

Greg Tremblay’s narration was on point. He’s so good, I couldn’t let it go and sleep. I couldn’t find a stopping point, it’s akin to reading when keep saying “just one more page”, I kept saying “just one more chapter.”
