Knot the Ex

Howling Hills Heat, Book 2

De: Liam Kingsley

Narrado por: Parker Momus

Alpha Grayson McNally is one of Howling Hills' hottest bachelors - or at least, he would be if he weren't still grieving for the ex who left him behind five years ago. He's learned to hide his loneliness behind smiles and practical jokes, but when a rogue bee sting sends him to the hospital, Grayson wonders if he might not have a second chance at love after all.

All Harvey has ever wanted was to become a doctor - and it's something he's excelled at, his passion for saving other people rivaled only by the belief that he doesn't deserve a happy ending for himself. Leaving Grayson behind to get his education was a no-brainer, but even Harvey can't resist the call between them when the one man who never left his heart comes back into his life...as a patient.

Sparks fly as one chance meeting leads to another, but the discovery that Grayson is Harvey's fated mate leaves him with mixed emotions. Harvey loves Grayson... but he also loves his career.

Will an unexpected pregnancy be the key to tearing down the walls surrounding this omega's heart?

Grayson and Harvey

This is the second book in the Howling Hills Heat series and a second chance romance. I found it very enjoyable. Grayson and Harvey are a hot mess. Harvey's spent the last several years pining for his lost love only to find him again in a very uncomfortable situation. Harvey chose his career over Grayson and just when things are going great he really screws up. While I liked that Harvey stood up to Grayson for being highhanded, he was doing it for his own pride. Grayson's apology for overreacting earned a thumbs up from me. Loved the sweet ending.

The narrator was clear and kept a decent pace. Not a lot of difference in the voice of each of the characters but it didn't detract too much from the story.

College Sweethearts

Falling in love in college is easy to do. Making long term plans when career paths diverge... not so much.

Both MC's were heartbroken when one stayed in Howling Hills, but the other transplanted to the east coast to study medicine in one of the country's premier universities. They didn't keep in contact.

As part of his residency, our doctor was assigned to the Howling Hills hospital, where he ran into his ex in the ER.

Do you ignore the past, use it as a shield, remake a relationship? All of the above, all of the feels.

Narrator Parker Momas was a solid narration listen on day one. The next day, he sounded like he was speaking in a tin can! Not possible. Someone *ahem* was messing with the audio settings, and really sent them sideways. Resetting the audio brought Parker's smooth tones back, and the book finished with a Bonus Chapter that was a lot of fun.

The way this book started was epic, hahaha a bee sting on Grayson's nether regions, yes I laughed like a donkey for longer then necessary. Honestly though the humour was a great start and much needed. I had a hard time connecting to Harvey. I just thought he was very selfish. Grayson was solid and knew what he wanted but Harvey just kept pulling back and putting his job before Grayson. I know that Harvey's career was important but he really only decided not to go because of the pregnancy and even then it felt like he only agreed because the the other doctor told him it wouldn't be safe to deliver in another country. Yikes, I just couldn't connect with Harvey and felt that Grayson deserved better.
I really like that throughout this series you get a different narrator for each book. Parker did a really good job and brought all the different characters to life. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Perfect

Just when both men admit their feels and find out that they're fated mates Harvey has a secret that Gray finds out before Harvey shares it!!! Geay is so hardheaded I could have smacked him. Gray acted a bit childish imo. Thankfully Gray put his big boy panties on and came around. Great endings! The narrator was okay.

as good as the ebook

The story is always 4 or 5 stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

Cute & Funny

Fun listen... the voice actor does an awesome job characters are easily distinguishable. I am really enjoying this series the characters are flawed but very likable. The mpeg is really well done. I am looking forward to the next book.

Grayson & Harvey

This could be Grayson and Harvey's second chance, if Grayson's anger and hurt over Harvey leaving him four years ago doesn't stop him. I enjoyed reading about their relationship and not extra drama thrown in.

Great Book

I enjoyed the story. The first 30 minutes I was giggling myself sick. The rest of the story was great as well. Unfortunately I have sensitive ears and the narrators voice was harsh to me. And it is only because of my ears I say that. I am sure others enjoyed it immensely. Overall great book.

Second Chances

This is a sweet story about not giving up on the one you love.
Narrator Parker Momus does a good job.

enjoyed it

Would I listen to it again: yes
Did the story keep me engaged: yes
Was I invested in the characters: yes
What did I like about the story? immersive story with a good pace and Interesting (well developed) characters who showed some good personal growth throughout the story.

Mother Moon has deemed Grayson and Harvey as fated mates, but can Grayson get past the anger and hurt he still holds over Harvey leaving him years ago to give them a chance.

Narrator comment: I enjoyed Parker Momus' narration and think he has done a reasonable job narrating Knot the Ex. There wasn't a huge difference between voices, but there was enough difference in the personalities of the characters that it was enough to distinguish who was speaking. I found Harvey's voice 'sharp' and needed to turn the volume down slightly on his chapters and there were times when the narration was a little flat, but it wasn't enough to detract from the story.
