About this listen

Rule #1 Don’t fall for the ridiculously hot straight guy

Rule #2 Especially not if he’s your best friend

Rule #3 Extra-especially not when you’re supposed to be his private tutor

Rule #4 Oh, god, but those eyes

Rule #5 Okay, maybe eyes are fine if you don’t look south

Rule #6 Don’t look south

Rule #7 You looked south, didn’t you?

Rule #8 Are you even listening?

Gabe Mitchell isn't listening. What's worse, ever since he moved back to the small town he thought he'd left for good, he's turned into a habitual rule breaker.

Falling for his straight best friend, Clark Summers? Check.

Falling for his straight best friend, Clark Summers, who also happens to be his newest mature student? Check.

And don't you dare get him started about what's going on down south, because Gabe doesn't need to check that to know he's in deep.

It's a good thing Clark's missed him these last four years, and a better thing that he's willing to do whatever it takes to have Gabe back in his life, because rules are about to be broken. All of them. And Clark’s only rule? The one about being straight? It might just end up broken, too.

Before the Call is the second book in the Small Town Hearts series, which features heroes scattered across the rural United States who find love where they're least expecting it. In addition to friendship that turns red-hot, you can expect to find generous servings of vanilla ice cream that are anything but vanilla, interesting “tutoring” techniques, a nerd who's head over heels for the best friend he can't have, and a jock who loves his Dork even after years apart.

Stunning true love story

4.5 Blue Roses
3.5 to 4 Blue Flames

Narrator Michael Ferraiuolo masterfully performed a stunning true love story. This was truly a sit back and enjoy MM Romance. Michael is absolutely talented conveying emotions, by capturing his audience with his ability to draw the tension and hold listeners attention with an entertaining performance and easy distinguishable dialogues.

Clark Summers and Gabe Mitchell are soul mates who have been best friends for many years. Gabe has known this since school years, ever since the time they met, he’s been in love with his best friend. He leaves town for tertiary education, and when he returns, he runs into Clark and it is as if he never left. Clark and Gabe story was beautifully told with humor and passion. Clarks’ epiphany was easy and without drama. He has a strong character and the realization was accepted as it is. He was in love and had always been in love with his friend as well. The two compliment each other and it was refreshing to listen to a pure love story without drama and inner turmoil. I love how they playfully had sex while and discover each other.

I do recommend this audiobook. If you are searching for a fun, sweet and pure love story then this is the one not to miss.

Happy Listening
