About this listen
Last month, Alex Barrow's whole life imploded - partner, home, job, all gone in 48 hours. But sometimes when everything falls apart, better things appear almost like magic. Now, he's back in his Michigan hometown, finally opening the bakery he's always dreamed of. But the pleasure of opening day is nothing compared to the lonely and beautiful man who bewitches Alex before he even orders.
Corbin Wale is a weirdo. At least, that's what he's heard his whole life. He knows he's often in a fantasy world, but the things he feels are very real. And so is the reason why he can never, ever be with Alex Barrow. Even if Alex is everything he's always fantasized about. Even if maybe, just maybe, Corbin is Alex's fantasy too.
When Corbin begins working at the bakery, he and Alex can't deny their connection any longer. As the holiday season works its magic, Alex yearns for the man who seems out of reach. But to be with Alex, Corbin will have to challenge every truth he's ever known. If his holiday risk pays off, two men from different worlds will get the love they've always longed for.
Contains mature themes.

Really Good
This is the 3rd Roan Parrish book I've read, and it was a worthy follow up to the others.
It was a quirky story. but it was refreshing how much the characters liked each other. Sometimes I get sick of the loveably unlikeable characters and enemies-to-lovers.
It did drag a bit when it got to Corbin's part. The style of the book was flowery and poetic, so I wasn't exactly surprised, but it did get a little much at times. I found myself drifting until the plot picked up again, but it always did, and I never considered stopping.
The narrator was pleasant to listen to, although I did listen at 1.20x speed.

The power of the mind
very slow book. I’m not sure how to characterize this book. I thought as I was reading that there would be some thing different I’m not sure, I did skip a few chapters so I’m not sure if there was a resolution to the abuse that was raised or if there was a resolution to the neighbourhood bully but it was just dragging and I couldn’t figure out where the book was headed so I think that maybe if you’re in a different frame of mind you might enjoy this book more than I did. I just found the lack of communication everywhere to be sad. Alex assumed Corbin was abused but Corbin just didn’t want to be touched because he thought he had a curse but didn’t want to talk about it and then the best friend is being abused but doesn’t want to talk about anything and when he moves he’s attracted to someone else but then what happened to his abusive husband? most don’t just let them go what happens there and then we have Ben (I think that was his name) the adult bully, were things resolved?
This book raise a ton of concepts about the power of the mind, like what you think of the most you bring into fruition so if you’re constantly thinking of something negative you are attracting negative, either that or his aunts were full of hot air and told him a whole ton of lies.
To be honest throughout most of the book I kept thinking the aunts were full of hot air and killed themselves and they spouted their beliefs to Corbin and being an impressionable kid he believed it, hook, line and sinker and took it all in and it became his beliefs so in a fact it’s also how brainwashing works where you put your beliefs on someone and you believe them so wholeheartedly that the other person starts to believe the same thing, even if none of it is factual.
I’m not sure how much remaking was done to Corbin more like he was shown affection and he was treated not as an outcast so he blossomed. He was still the exact same person he just did things a little bit more common place I guess because he actually had people to talk to him, he had friends and people to love him and give him affection and show him a little bit of respect and enjoyed his company.
