Quinton's Quest

Love in Mission City, Book 6

By: Gabbi Grey

Narrated by: Michael Dean

Quinton

After the best one-night stand ever, I discover the man I thought was perfect is anything but. Leo Rodgers is an arrogant surgeon who lords his expertise and experience over everyone. Well, not me. I’m a competent nurse who refuses to be pushed around. By anyone.

So I flirt with him to annoy him, but there are more fish in the sea than Leo. I have no problem getting a date with a man or a woman when I want one. The problem? I find myself increasingly hung up on a cranky surgeon, whose soft moments with his two children give me hope there's a good man under the arrogance.

Leo

Quinton Yi is a pain in my ass. After our disastrous, but oh-so-memorable one-night stand, I find myself having to work with him. His flirting is driving me nuts, so I can't be blamed for snapping at him. What part of one-night doesn't he understand?

My ex-husband once tried to tell me that I was a pompous asshat. On the contrary—I just have no time for trivia. I need to be skilled and focused so my patients have the best chance of survival. One devastating loss, though, sends me spiraling. Suddenly, I’m realizing how fallible I am. And that by rejecting Quinton, I might’ve lost my best chance at finding happiness again.

Quinton’s Quest is an enemies-to-lovers, interracial, age-gap, grumpy/sunshine, single father, small-town romance gay novel. This story has a grumpy egotistical surgeon and a sunshine sassy nurse who might just give him his comeuppance.

Great listen!

Really enjoyed this one from Gabbi Grey! Solid storyline and the author got the medical details right which is refreshing! Michael Dean does a great job narrating, as always.

Leo got his HEA too

I couldn’t wait for Leo’s story after listening to Gideon’s Gratitude. Yes, I really disliked him for everything he put Gideon through. But, I also wanted to know his reason for being such a jerk and wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt.

He could have done things differently but given what he witnessed, I can totally understand why he did what he did.

After everything that happened with his ex, Leo moved to Mission City to be closer to him so his ex can spend time with their kids.

There, meets Quinton, a ray of sunshine personified. The two immediately connect in a way neither expected.

After the most epic one-night stand, Quinton finds out the two will be working together but a dismissive comment from Leo, things go downhill. From that day on, Quinton and Leo simply clash at every turn.

Leo’s opinion of nurses isn’t exactly the best one after a mishap at his old hospital. Something Quinton took personal offense to.

But despite the things going awry, Quinton couldn’t help falling for Leo. Their attraction was too strong to ignore and he didn’t want to fight it anymore.

Their beginning might have been a rocky one, but Leo knew Quinton was the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

I loved how supportive Gideon and Archer were of his relationship. They found a commons ground and gave way to forgiveness. Maybe Leo didn’t do things the right way, but his actions were justified.

I love this series so much. Each story just gets better and better. Can’t wait for Finn’s book.

Thank you Michael Dean for another fantastic narration.

Quinton and Leo

Quinton and Leo are both prone to jumping to conclusions and lashing out. There is plenty of spark between them, and they keep coming back for more. I liked that Leo willingly admitted he was wrong and apologized. I loved, even more, that he worked to heal his relationship with his ex-husband. All four adults worked so hard to put the children first. Quinton's mom was a bright spot in the book.
Highly recommended author and series

Audiobook: awesome narrator

Sweet!

A very sweet, hurt comfort, family, romance! Loved the characters and the performance. Highly recommend Leo and Quentin story.

So good!

I adored this story. I love how Gabbi Grey writes books that stand alone but also include characters from her other books. I love a good redemption story. While Leo wasn't necessarily a bad guy in Gideon's Gratitude, he wasn't a very likeable character. I'm so glad that Gabbi Grey gave him a second chance at finding love. His relationship with Quinton didn't get off to a great start but they got a great HEA.

I loved the hints we got for a book I hoped we get about a firefighter who appeared in this story and was very happy that Gabbi confirmed that Finn's story will be coming soon.

I don’t know why but audiobooks don’t often bring me to tears like reading with my eyes but this one hit me hard in the feels and, to me, that’s the best compliment I can give a book. I loved listening to Michael Dean's performance.
