The Amazing Alpha Tau Self-Improvement Project

Alpha Tau, Book 2

De: Lisa Henry, Sarah Honey

Narrado por: Nick J. Russo

Dalton Beauregard has a plan.

It involves acing all his exams, making the Dean's List every year he's at Lassiter College, and going to med school and becoming a doctor.

Marty O'Brien has a plan, too. His is to improve his life by emulating those around him. He's going to need a study plan, a tutor, and... a boyfriend?

Dalton can't believe he's even considering this. It's utterly ridiculous. Marty is an idiot, and there is no way he's going to help him learn how to be gay.

Or is there?

The Amazing Alpha Tau Self-Improvement Project is a lighthearted contemporary m/m romance containing banter, snark, and a dumb frat boy who may have accidentally had the smartest idea ever. Or something.

Includes a bonus story, "Romancing Dalton Beauregard."

Marty is just Marty

Nick J Russo does the audio and just brings the beautiful chaos of this group to life. You can easily tell who is speaking when it's all the different boys' turns.

Bonus content: Romancing Dalton Beauregard
Let's just say Marty should not be in charge of planning romantic dates. If something can wrong, it does, and yeah, pure comedy genius.

Marty is just one of those characters you can't help but love and want to throtle at the same time. His chaotic energy just draws you in and holds on tight from your first interaction with him. Then you have Dalton, who needs Marty to bring fun into his life and be free for the first time. Together, they are so openly beautiful together and show don't judge a book by its cover and actually get to know the person you will find your perfect match. These Alpha Tau boys just have a way of digging in and owning you.

Entertaining.

Sweet, fun story with tons of humorous dialogue. Very enjoyable. Good, strong characters. Narration by Russo middling to good, although I sometimes think he's reading as though he were telling a bedtime story to a child. Still... I recommend this book, this series and most definitely these authors.
But, do yourself a favour and skip the bonus story at the end. It does absolutely nothing to enhance the story and is loaded with awful, cringy moments and situations. All of which are meant to be hilarious. None of which I found amusing in the least. In fact it sullies the impression that the authors spent an entire book trying to instill; this being that Marty was not as dumb as everyone thinks. In fact, it is said repeatedly how smart he actually is. Then comes the bonus and he acts Iike a total dunce. Not funny!

Loved it!

Omg! This was absolutely adorable. I loved every minute of it. Nick did a great job narrating like always. Highly recommend.

This Book Is So Much Fun!

I laughed a lot reading this book but adding Nick J Russo to the mix and I was dying! Marty is my favorite character in this series, he's so sweet and that perfect blend of clueless and a certain kind of smart, and I love how he comes into Dalton's world and opens it up and makes it so much better! And the bonus short Romancing Dalton Beauregard was the perfect ending and had me in stitches!

“Marty was like junk food. You knew you should avoid it, but that sugar rush felt so damn good.”

Marty is the man with a plan, even if it’s a bit unconventional, and hits up Dalton to help him get his grades up AND be his boyfriend. As far as Dalton is aware, Marty has never been into guys, but Marty is ready to dive in head first.

Agreeing to help Marty out with more than just academics may be the stupidest thing Dalton has ever done, but from the moment Marty barreled into his life, Dalton has been the happiest he’s been in a really long time.

From the moment Marty popped up I knew I was going to love him, and his character did not disappoint. He’s chaos incarnate, but he’s so damn lovable, and while he and Dalton are completely opposites, they balance each other out so well.
