Sold by the book cover, sold by the narrators (loved and trusted) and sold by the 4+ rating on goodreads...
What on earth did I just listen to?
I stuck around for the romance and the romance alone... but the back story, the unread letters, the dead brother, the straight brother (Deacon) who just sailed through his sexuality with complete ease, the sprinkling of dead brother guilt here and there and the cherry on top, the ex who fell madly and deeply in love with his dead boyfriends straight brother and moving across the country in just a few weeks...
Nothing was believable and was like listening to a high budget porno that only paid for the viagra, muscles, and lube. Just... weird.
The 2 stars are for the romance, the narrators, and for being good enough for me, not to DNF. It was unremarkable and unbelievable but provided mild satisfaction.

I can't believe I held off on reading this book for so long. Definitely worth all of the hype. Deacon and Julien's relationship was so raw and emotional. Their grief over the loss of Rhett and his long battle with cancer, Julian's mixed feelings about moving on, Deacon's strained relationship with his mother... all of it was just so real. Reading this had me laughing, swooning, and crying.
It was meh. I listened to the audiobook and i like the narrators but it was very slow paced. The spice was spicy for sure though but a few parts made me laugh when i don't think they were supposed to lol. The line where they were in the moment and he said "don't make me stop this, stop you" made me laugh because i feel like it was a reference to brokeback mountain
