The Truth About Lennon by K.L. Grayson
5.0
Fun banter, great chemistry, and a sexy single dad. And that's just the beginning of The Truth About Lennon. Noah and Lennon are just so good together that you can't help but root for them. They're sweet and sexy and everything in between. We do, of course, have the required bit of angst, that bit of turmoil to test our couple. It's not hard to figure out where that turmoil is going to come from, but that lack of surprise didn't diminish my enjoyment of the story at all. The only thing I didn't care for in the story was that pivotal moment, that turning point when one of them realizes they've made a mistake, that they've acted rashly. It wasn't the moment itself, it was more the circumstances that brought about the realization. I'm trying not to give spoilers, so I'll just say that it felt a little shallow for that character. And that brings me to one of the things I loved most about this story. KL Grayson gives us some beautifully drawn characters in this book. Both Lennon and Noah are wonderfully developed, and the story is thoroughly engaging from start to finish. There's a kind of charm about the whole thing.
Then we come to the performance and make no mistake, it is a performance. Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross breathe life into these characters. Every emotion comes through in their voices, and before you know it, you're completely lost in Noah and Lennon's love story. There were a couple of points when the emotion is so strong that I was crying right along with the characters, and that's not something I do often. I love what this duo brings to each and every conversation, and their voices suit these characters perfectly. Everything, from the witty banter to the steamy fun to the emotional misunderstandings, it's all there in the performance. Kai Kennicott is great as Lennon. She brings out the frustration Lennon feels over her current situation as well as her nervousness about settling in Heaven, Texas. Then we have Wen Ross as Noah, and I'll just say that I'm pretty sure if you look up sexy male voice, you'll find a picture of Wen Ross. Holy moly, Noah is as sexy as sexy gets, and while Grayson's writing goes a long way into creating this hot single dad, Wen Ross' voice ramps it up a few notches more.
I really can't say enough about this story or the performance. It's all top-notch as far as I'm concerned, and I can't wait to check out more books by KL Grayson as well as more of Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross. All three have fallen on my radar in a big way with The Truth About Lennon.
