About this listen
In this village, I’m an outcast: Griffin Everett, the scowling giant who prefers plants to people. Then I meet Keynes, a stranger from the city who’s everything I’m not: sharp-tongued, sophisticated, beautiful. Free. For a few precious moments in a dark alleyway, he’s also mine, hot and sweet under the stars...until he crushes me like dirt beneath his designer boot.
When the prettiest man I’ve ever hated shows up at my job the next day, I’m not sure if I want to strangle him or drag him into bed. Actually - I think I want both. But Keynes isn’t here for the likes of me: He makes that painfully clear. With everyone else at work, he’s all gorgeous, glittering charm - but when I get too close, he turns vicious.
And yet, I can’t stay away. Because there’s something about this ice king that sets me on fire, a secret vulnerability that makes my chest ache. I’ll do whatever it takes to sneak past his walls and see the real man again.
The last thing I expect is for that man to ruin me.

Story
Charles Preston Carmichael is the most infuriating man I've ever met. I want to sock the golden boy of college hockey right in the mouth. He enjoys telling me everything I'm messing up—publicly. And since he's my roommate for the next year, I can't avoid him. Yet there's something about him that makes me watch him. Something dark. A secret I want to uncover. When he returns from a weekend away, broken and haunted, I can't keep my distance anymore. He needs someone, and I'll be damned if it's not me.

The infamous tattoo artist's been watching geeky Bailey Cooper for months, but that's all he'll ever do: watch. Bailey's too sweet, too smart, too good for the likes of him, and he knows it. So Cash keeps his distance . . . until a Christmas miracle makes him Bailey's boss. Socially awkward Bailey learned long ago that men just aren't worth the hassle. Take her new boss, Cash: he's a brooding beast who avoids her like the plague, but he also fixes her plumbing, helps the homeless, and offers Bailey a place to stay for Christmas.

After years of military service, Evan Miller wants a quiet life. The small town of Ravenswood seems perfect - until he stumbles upon a vicious web of lies with his new neighbor at its center. Ruth Kabbah is rude, awkward, and - according to everyone in town - bad news. Thing is, no one will tell Evan why. Does she perform ritual sacrifices? Howl at the moon? Pour the milk before the tea? He has no clue. But he desperately wants to find out. The more Evan’s isolated, eccentric neighbor pushes him away, the more he wants her.

Twenty years ago, monsters rose on earth and began a new age of civilization. One where humans live in military-controlled, cramped and dirty cities along the coasts, and the majority of the United States is known as the Wastes. A lawless, desolate and dangerous place, teeming with monsters that have claimed the land for their own. Including Wyn the Soul Eater. He appears every three years, making his way across the country and slaughtering humans randomly, sucking them dry until they’re nothing but husks.

Story
My path to success never included an enemy as a teammate, especially one as infuriating as Quinton de Haas. Clawing under my skin is his favorite pastime, only feeding the animosity between us as the years pass. We’re as completely opposite as two people can be; the golden boy and the black sheep. Constantly at odds or at each other’s throats. The only thing we can agree on is hockey is our true love, and we’ll do whatever it takes to come out on top. I never imagined that drive would lead me to do the unthinkable: falling into bed with my not-so-straight rival.

Kyran Harbor is everything I'm not. Rich. Popular. A superstar football player who's awfully broody for someone who has it all. Basically, he's a preppy jock who hates me. Oh, and he's also my stepbrother. That's right. We're stuck together, sharing a school, a house, a bathroom. Honestly I wouldn't care if he wasn't such an uptight control freak who messes with me just because we're different. I had every intention of avoiding him when we got to college. Until abrupt misfortune forces us both into a compromising position.

I have to stop replaying the one night I spent with my rival. Trouble is, that white-hot encounter with the other quarterback answered a lot of questions I’ve had about myself, but it also led me into this mess where he hates me. I never showed up for our second date. Since, well, life happened, and the worst part is he’ll never know how much that night meant to me.

Retired action star Levi Pritchard has made a quiet life for himself in the sleepy logging town of Bluewater Bay, Washington. But then Hollywood comes to film the wildly popular television series Wolf’s Landing, and Bluewater Bay isn’t so sleepy anymore. His retirement doesn’t stick, either, because he’s offered a part on the show—exactly the kind of complex role he’d always wanted, one that would prove him more than a glorified stuntman. The only catch? He has to stay in the closet—no matter how attractive he finds his costar.

When a string of young queer men turn up dead in grisly murders, all signs point to the ex-boyfriend - but what should be an open-and-shut case is fraught with tension when BPD homicide detective Malcolm Khalaji joins up with a partner he never wanted. Rigid, ice-cold, and a stickler for the rules, Seong-Jae Yoon is a watchful presence whose obstinacy and unpredictability constantly remind Malcolm why he prefers to work alone. Seong-Jae may be stunningly attractive, a man who moves like a graceful, lethal bird of prey...but he's as impossible to decipher as this case.

The most beautiful man I've ever seen is the same one who can ruin everything. The first time I lay eyes on Callan Walker, I know he'll be trouble. With his smug grin, hot Aussie accent, and thousand-dollar shoes, he's just the kind of rich guy who always gets what he wants. And he wants two things: a night of sin, and my cooperation as he outmaneuvers his powerful mother to take control of his uncle's estate. I can't afford either one. I'm the only thing standing between my little sister and the foster care system.

Like all Necromancers, Cassius Corbin grew up knowing one irrevocable truth: death comes for us all. It was a lesson he learned well when his mother was murdered by fellow witches. Six years later, he is back in the town of Winslow, Massachusetts, to attend Tennebrose University. But that's not the only reason. While he's home, he intends to track down a magical folio stolen from his family centuries ago. Once he finds it, he'll finally be everything the witches in Winslow fear and the Corbin name will be respected once again—as long as Graeme Hewitt stays out of his way.

You think you know me. That's the way I want it. Making you feel like we know each other - like we could go grab a beer sometime - is part of my job. Maybe the most vital part. It doesn't hurt that I'm easy on the eyes, single at 35, and born richer than sin. My aesthetic matters much more than it should, but all the better for my worthy cause. And it's a worthy cause. I've made an art out of making you feel good, and my influence makes you want to be good. Good like me. You think you know me, but you don't. Everyone has secrets. Mine could cost me everything.

This was gorgeous and so well-written. I loved both of them so much! I loved basically everything about this book and, as is often the case when I love a book so thoroughly, I m having trouble putting my feelings into words. The writing about depression and insecurity and bullying is beautifully subtle and understanding. Griffin's best friend and Keyne's sister were fantastic secondary characters.
I'm going to have to read the other books in the series very soon.
I will re-read this many times. All the love!
Audio: this is so difficult because it has duel narrators and one was fantastic, and the other bordered on atrocious. Griffin's main narrator was great, he brought the emotions through, delineated the characters, and did a great job with the accents. Keyne's narrator was just awful however, and it felt like he had a bigger proportion of the narration. I can't emphasize how horrible his Griffin voice was, it was ridiculous and weird and wrong in every way. His voice for Keyne was fine, except he some times sounded like he was faking the accent. I had been waiting for this with high hopes and bought it as soon as I saw it was released, but I can't see myself listening to it again. I'm so disappointed.
Gorgeous book, one great narrator, other is awful

This book does work as a standalone. The retail book listings don’t mention that this is part of a series, but Goodreads does. I think since this is m/m, readers don’t necessarily have to read the m/f books before this one to understand what’s happening in this book. However, one of the MCs seems to be a pretty important character in the first 2 books and one MC’s sister who got her HEA in a previous book is actually pregnant in this one, so there is some continuity there if anyone wanted to go back and read their stories. And I actually do love Talia Hibbert’s m/f books, so I will be checking those out!
Trigger warnings include mentions of blackmailing, mentions of forced outing, mentions of a parent’s suicide, bullying, depression, anxiety, and grief for a parent who has passed away.
Griffith “Griff” Everett is a 28-year-old and oversees the operations of Fernley Farm. He’s lived in Fernley all his life and has never contemplated leaving, even though all the villagers treat him something awful and the memory of his mother even worse. He does have one friend he’s really close with, so that was nice to see. He’s a bit of a giant, and maybe not the most traditionally handsome man, but he’s really very kind and just an absolute sweetheart underneath the surface.
Olumide “Olu” Olusegun-Keynes is an alien. Or at least that’s how he describes himself, and it’s how he views himself compared to the people around him. He’s from London and is 38 years old. He has come off a very, VERY bad relationship and doesn’t feel comfortable in his own skin anymore. He decides he needs a break from the city and finds the remote, quaint town of Fernley to get away from the city life. He signs up to help Fernley’s Elderberry Harvest with his travel journals in tow.
The relationship between Griff and Olu is darling and something of a slow burn. But once they admit their attraction to one another, they are together a LOT. I do like how explicit consent is in this book. Maybe because I didn’t know Olu’s backstory (I think this is covered in his sister’s book), Olu came off as maybe demisexual or grey ace to me for most of this book. It’s never quite said in-text, and maybe it has to do with the horrors of his last relationship instead, but I think Olu reads on the ace spectrum to me. His friendship with Griff definitely builds over time, and he’s blown away that Griff would want to do anything other than have sex. Like just making their own cordial (like a syrup) for drinks (which is a Griffith specialty and what really helps keep the farm in business).
So. I think there were some instances where the characters felt a little stuck in their heads with their inner dialogue too long for my tastes. And it sometimes felt like a drag on the story. I’ve noticed this is fairly common in Talia Hibbert’s writing, and only seems to be cut down more in her latest The Brown Sisters series.
I guess my biggest issue with this book is the epilogue. This book, while works as a standalone, does actually tries to be a bit of a bridge to complete the whole Just For Him series. We know Olu’s sister is pregnant and even though this is a m/m book, we have an epilogue that deals with a pregnancy and then the MCs talking about wanting their own children one day. Which. I’m not convinced. Olu practically raised his own sister from a young age and both he and Griff showed no signs at all towards kids at any point in the book other than Olu showing excitement for being an uncle. Yes, I do like m/m books where the couple has children throughout the book, but it just felt like a heteronormative ending was shoved into the epilogue in this case. I am not a fan.
The narration for this is pretty fabulous. I’ve listened to Shane East before (and his pseudonym) and I think I prefer his m/m romance narrations and my only question is, why doesn’t he do more m/m books??? I’m very sorry for what I said about him when I initially listened to a m/f series he narrated. He is very good and more people should listen to his audiobooks.
What I really have a question about is Chance Thoreau. The narrator for Olu. WHO IS HE. He only has this one audiobook under this name but I did find a bio on another website that says he’s done a lot of narration work. WHICH MEANS he has a pseudonym and I want to know what else he’s narrated so I can listen to those too!! Or maybe he should narrate more m/m romance books under this name. I’m just saying. I would listen to them.
I think they were both very excellent narrators, but like any duel narration, the characters never sound quite like the other depending on who’s reading which chapter. So, like, I love Shane East’s Griff and I love Chance Thoreau’s Olu. But Shane reading Olu never sounded like Chance’s Olu and vice versa for Griff. They both have such distinctive voices for their characters that it was more noticeable and made it sound like there were 4 characters in this relationship instead of just 2 at times. So that’s probably my one issue regarding the audiobook.
But one super fun thing that happens with this audiobook is that after Chance Thoreau narrates “the end” he adds in something that’s not in the ebook? He adds in a “boom”. Like giving the audiobook a mic drop and it was GOLD. I wasn’t expecting it at all and had to go back and replay it a couple times because it made me laugh.
Overall, I thought this book was enjoyable, minus the epilogue. There’s no really abrupt third act breakup, but more like an extremely short time apart which worked for the characters and the story. Griff and Olu are great. This definitely contained much more angst than I was expecting. I wouldn’t say this is my favorite Talia Hibbert book, but the audiobook narration was fun and Griff has a really great moment near the end where he shows great initiative and I LOVED that scene. The author does write queer m/f books, but I would definitely wouldn’t mind seeing more m/m romances from her!

Overview: 1- when you need to escape, where better to go than the countryside (or into the arms of a kind stranger), 2-slowburn, 3- healing from trauma, hurt/comfort, 4- tropes include, city/country, rich/poor, college-educated/not.
I could gush about this but I don't want to give too much away. I feel like my snippets perfectly capture what I want to share/reveal about this dynamic duo.
I strongly recommend folks check this sweet, heart-wrenching story out!

But the audible was . . . Rough. It was extremely unbalanced. Shane East was fantastic as always. He nailed both MC voices, imo. Now, when there are dual narrators, things are not always going to align, but this was nuts to listen to. I almost had to call it quits multiple times. Chance Thoreau did ok on Keynes, but whatever he was doing on Griff was- I don’t even know what it was. The character’s voice was described as gravelly, so he did the voice of an old timey sea captain. If it had not been for that specific part, it would have been totally fine! I’d listen to something else narrated by him in the future but this was a swing and a miss for me.
