About this listen

When Theodore Davenport decides to switch his mundane job for a career, he walks into Holden House Publishing with enthusiasm and determination to succeed. As he settles into his new role, makes new friends, and dreams of making it to the top, everything is going to plan. Until he meets James Holden, CEO of Holden House. James Holden hasn't been able to stop thinking about his encounter with the timid man he met in a club bathroom last week, and when he discovers the one haunting his dreams is an employee, he can't seem to stop himself from pursuing him. Just a little fun - that's what James tells himself. He can't afford to care for someone who can never reciprocate, not once they find out who he really is. James believes nobody deserves the burden of being attached to him. He's a complicated man. Damaged. Difficult. Demanding. Broken. Is Theodore strong enough to confront James' demons? More importantly, is James?

M/M romance. Not suitable for listeners under 18 years of age due to language and sexual content.

Please note: This book contains scenes of self-harm, mental illness, and suicidal ideation which may be uncomfortable for some listeners.

Amazing!

I learned so much! On how it feels to be on both sides of mental health. I’ve been having a hard time lately enjoying a book. This book was awesome from start to finish.

Difficult

The trigger warnings for this book are 100% warranted.

Woof, this book was hard to get through. So many heavy emotions, so much difficult content. It was, however, well-written, and the topic well-handled.

The narration by Joel Leslie is spectacular. So emotional, and his abilities with accents is superb.

Joel Leslie!

It might seem odd that I’m not focused on the brilliant writing of Nicola Haken, the profound depth and passion of this story. But I must give a shout out to the remarkable narration of Joel Leslie - he’s magical in his performance, nuanced and outstanding in bringing these beloved characters to life! He’s one of a kind!

loved it

Fantastic narration and a the story of strength throughout. Check for TW as there are some really tough moments in this story but I loved both MC and (most of) their family and friends. A favourite listen in 2022. Really unique and beautiful.
