Paternity Case

Hazard and Somerset Mystery Series, Book 3

By: Gregory Ashe

Narrated by: Tristan James

It's almost Christmas, and Emery Hazard finds himself face to face with his own personal nightmare: going on a double date with his partner - and boyhood crush - John-Henry Somerset. Hazard brings his boyfriend; Somers brings his estranged wife. Things aren't going to end well.

When a strange call interrupts dinner, however, Hazard and his partner become witnesses to a shooting. The victims: Somers' father and the daughter of a high school friend. The crime is inexplicable. There is no apparent motive, no connection between the victims, and no explanation for how the shooter reached his targets.

Determined to get answers, Hazard and Somers move forward with their investigation in spite of mounting pressure to stop. Their search for the truth draws them into a dark web of conspiracy and into an even darker tangle of twisted love and illicit desire. And as the two men come face to face with the passions and madness behind the crime, they must confront their own feelings for each other - and the hard truths that neither man is ready to accept.

I ❤️ this series

I am rooting for Hazard and Sumerset! They’re almost there, at the finish line for finding each other.

Parents Add Complications

The case itself is full of so much that has to be sorted. Who did what and why. As the case unravels it becomes more and more complicated. But the past and present for Hazard and Sommerset is also taking on a hard edge. John Henry has some truths he needs to sort out. There is abuse discussed which was difficult to think about. But the story was riveting and kept me on the edge of my seat. #CMCon26

My head and heart hurts

Once you enjoyed the first one you will love this one. The mystery is intriguing and the characters are still as flawed and frustrating and lovable as before. I was frustrated a lot of times but that's from good writing and happens with slow burns. On to book 4

great a little slow in the middle but awesome.

things I like: the suspense, the mystery, and story. the twists about who's involved in the crime or is it crimes? is it one or many bad guys? seriously kept me on the edge of my seat. awesome! the interpersonal relationships really get you drawn in and heated I mean I actually was yelling at the audiobook ! I mean I'm really invested in the characters and seriously think therapy is needed for both the main guys I mean seriously it's time. I will say that the day and time stamps should have been altered a little because these guys apparently never sleep, never heal from the terrible injuries they get, and can solve every crime in under two weeks lol but seriously worth a listen.

thinks I didn't like: the over use of the word fa**ot, it's over done it feels like it's thrown out at least once every five minutes in many cases a lot lot more. and I get that the author wants to show the nasty prejudiced hateful people and terms they use to degrade and belittle people who are different just because they can but Jesus I hope it isn't that way in thr next book. I hate how immature summers is how he treats nicko and constantly undermines hazards relationship with him it's petty. it also shows how that summers is a pathetic man child.

When your worlds collide!

A beautiful story that was incredibly well-written. I can't get enough of Hazard and Somerset and NICO!!!!!!!!! - they are wonderful. The narrator is perfect!
