De: Duckie Mack

Narrado por: Kevin Earlywine, Curtis Michael Holland

Jason loves his life as a stay-at-home dad, but being a divorced single father wasn't part of the plan.

Besides his kids, pies are his passion. He makes and sells his creations at the Heartcraft Market, but it's not enough to live off of.

After his father's recent health scare, Nico is determined to help revive their family diner. Then he meets Jason, whose pies are as sweet as he is, and an idea begins to form.

Jason's kids are everything to him, but his bed feels empty at night. Nico has always wanted a family, but he has yet to find a man that he could build a life with. Can a few pies lead to the promise of a future together?

Pies & Promises features two men whose love for family and food brings them together and has plenty of heart and heat baked in. The Heartcraft Market series features interconnected standalone novels that can be enjoyed on their own.

Cute. A little too sweet.

The story was cute. Fun to follow their love but it was too neat and overly sweet. Mills spice.

just fun

Audio Review
Kevin & Curtis do a beautiful job in making this book come to life. There is no over narration just simply put beautifully done. What a great way to enjoy a low angst story that just has you smiling from start to finish.


Now, this is how you do a single dad romance! Where yes, there is some hesitation but not to hinder the developing relationship. Nico is one of those guys who are all in from the getgo and make Jason able to move forward at his own pace. Then the kiddos they are as big as part of the story as the relationship, and for me, that's the way a single dad romance should be. Kids are a major part of their lives and should be. Without their support, this relationship couldn't have worked as beautifully as it did. It's such a beautiful story.

Perfection; charming, sexy, delightful with HEA

I wish this type of happy meet-to-marriage for every lonely gay guy.... this is so charming, so delightful, even with children in the mix, this is a beautiful, easy, no angst story that just made my heart happy. If you need some gentle, lovely, happy in your ears, this will do it.

Sweet as pie!

It was so fun hearing Nico and Jason brought to life! Curtis and Kevin are a great team :)

Wonderful story.

I absolutely loved the connection between these wonderful men. They needed each other and figured out how to put their lives together. I love the two children that gave their love so freely. I definitely recommend this book to everyone who loves mm family story with a happy ending.

I love the chemistry between them and how they’re relationship and they being together

What I love about this book is how giggly and how I loved the ended up together and how Nico treated his kids. I love this book and I would highly recommend it to everyone trade it.

cute story

This is a cute hallmark story. The narration was well read. the author has a sense of cuteness within this story line.

Cute and Cheesy

So wonderfully sweet and tender. I enjoyed it. If you want to just smile and have a tug at your heartstrings, this is for you.

Sweet as pie

I listen to a lot of mm romance and this one was as promised. It's just a very sweet and straightforward story with a dash of humor, a dash of spice, and a lot of love.

I have so much love for this! ❤️

This is a funny, sweet, feel-good story. Jason and his kids are adorable. Nico is sexy and so dang sweet to them.
I love this book. I've been reading a lot of dark romance lately, and the wholesomeness is shocking. 😆
I've been at work trying to keep the permanent smile off my face from listening to Pies and Promises. It's so fun. This is my second book by Duckie Mack, and I absolutely loved The Daredevil, so I was thrilled when I saw this in the plus catalog. I'm listening to it for free now, but it's one I plan on buying so I can keep it in my hoard.
The narrators did a great job.
