This closeted ex-football star just met his match. Liam Fox was the next Aussie footy star before his dream shattered along with his knee. More than a decade later, he's a lifeguard wishing fans would stop recognizing him so he can fade into the background where he’s safe.

Liam's alone with his secrets. He's never told his conservative family or a single friend he's gay. After being shamed for his need to surrender years ago by the first and only man he trusted, he's terrified to act on his desires.

Enter a trainee half his size with the biggest heart.


Cody Grant loves a challenge. Though he's young, he's out and proud and fearless. He's still learning to rescue swimmers from dangerous rip currents, but he knows he can take charge and give Liam the release, affection, and acceptance he desperately craves.

Can Cody convince Liam to find the courage to love and live out loud?

Flash Rip by Keira Andrews is a steamy gay romance and series starter for the Lifeguards of Barking Beach—where the rescue team on Australia's hottest beach save lives and risk their hearts. This hurt/comfort romance features a slow burn, an age gap, first times, and a happy ending.


Contains mature themes.

I love the Australian romance books! I would also listen to Joel Leslie read the phone book (if such a thing still existed). His talent for accents is incredible. The only comment I have is that while the Canadian accent was pretty good, it was sometimes more that of Atlantic Canada than the Pacific North West. but awesome as usual.

Good story

4.25/5 I’m not usually a huge fan of books where one or more of the MCs is in the closet. I wind up like Cody, trying to be sympathetic but getting a bit impatient, lol. I usually find it depressing, and while I know it’s a reality many people face, it’s not generally what I want to read about. In this case, though, my frustration was tempered by how viscerally I could feel Liam’s fear. He is a mess, not to put too fine a point on it, and whether or not I agree with his assessment, it’s impossible not to understand the emotions behind his hesitation (and to see all the homophobia he’s internalised).

I enjoyed the contrast between Cody and Liam and their outlooks on life. I appreciated that Cody being smaller and younger didn’t dictate his behaviour and preferences. Although there’s still plenty of fear and worry on Liam’s part, the way he gets to be himself with Cody is pretty awesome. I enjoyed learning about life guarding and getting to know everyone on Barking Beach. (And I loved that cameo by Ethan and Clay! Now I’m going to go reread Honeymoon for One again, lol.)

I liked how supportive Cody was from beginning to end (with a moment here and there of frustration and fear), and I loved when Liam got to support him in return at the end. The team is really awesome. I’m definitely delighted to imagine these two with their hard-earned HEA.

Awesome Aussie adventure and romance

I have already read this one as an ebook, so was mostly listening to it when trying to fall asleep and doing activities but it is such a compelling story that I ended up listening to it almost straight through.
