Publisher's Summary

Cornish pastry chef Seb Wright dreads the summer tourist season. The cash injection to his artisan fudge pantry is more than welcome, the extra work, less so. Then one summer, a shadowy Good Samaritan catches his eye. Irish traveler Dex is bewitching, a beautiful sullen enigma who turns Seb's world upside down until he disappears in the night, vanishing like a mystical summer rain.

Twelve months later, Dex is in the midst of a dark storm. A slave to his master, "Uncle" Braden, he spends his days cleaning caravans and his nights working in Braden's other businesses. His short summer with Seb seems a lifetime ago. Lost in the savage violence of the murky underworld, he doesn't dare dream he'll ever find his way back, until one night, a brutal crime opens the door for a chance escape. A new life beckons, old faces emerge, and immersed in the heady vibe of London’s East End, new love begins to heal his fractured heart.

Heart Wrenching and Beautiful

5 Blue Roses
3.5 Blue Flames
Narrator Dan Calley meticulously and beautifully delivered an unexpected highly controversial subject in this audiobook. Listeners will feel like their hearts were removed, shred into a million pieces, and carefully wind into a new ball of hope and life. Yes, Dan has the politeness to put it back, leaving gaping cavities closed and messy listeners fucked up in the head.

The authors succeeded to hide the biggest tragedy behind the characters and their story. Hint’s of the abuse and neglect of Dex only gets worse and will break your heart. I love how Seb’s observations and actions towards helping Dex was hidden. This misled the listener and created enough tension to scream WTF’s in terms of the slowness, pain, and struggle experienced by Dex. The realization and shock of what Dex had to endure and the level of strength he had to have, especially to survive. I am so glad he found his HEA.

This is a true heart-wrenching tale, and it’s accentuated by the reality that stories like Dex’s do occur every day around the world.

Happy Listening
