Sailor Proof

By: Annabeth Albert

Narrated by: Greg Boudreaux, Joel Leslie

“Whether making my heart melt or my head burst into flames, Annabeth Albert draws the reader in and keeps them captivated.” (Gay Book Reviews)

The sexy Navy chief and his best friend’s adorkable little brother....

It’s petty, but Naval Chief Derrick Fox wishes he could exact a little revenge on his ex by showing off a rebound fling. His submarine is due to return to its Bremerton, Washington, home base soon and Derrick knows all too well there won't be anyone waiting with a big, showy welcome.

Enter one ill-advised plan....

Arthur Euler is the guy you go to in a pinch - he's excellent at out-of-the-box solutions. It's what the genius music-slash-computer nerd is known for. So when he finds out Derrick needs a favor, he’s happy to help. He can muster the sort of welcome a Naval Chief deserves, no problem at all.

Except it is a problem. A very big problem.

When Arthur’s homecoming welcome is a little too convincing, when a video of their gangplank smooch goes enormously viral, they're caught between a dock and a hard place. Neither of them ever expected a temporary fake relationship to look - or feel - so real. And Arthur certainly never considered he'd be fighting for a very much not-fake forever with a military man.

Uff ..take again with Joel Leslie❤❤❤

The book is good, romantic ,entertaining and enjoyable, the narrator were good but Joel Leslie was as I expected and beyond, his way of narration is so good that you feel every character in your bones.

great book but sound issues

really enjoyed the book The narration was great but they were technical difficulties with the recording that really took away from the story sometimes the voices cut out completely or skipped very disappointing

SLOW START... BUT PICKS UP STEAM

The story starts out slowly, but picks up steam as the plot line progresses. Loveable characters and an HEA ending. Narrators did a great job contrasting the two main characters. Enjoyed the supporting cast of family members.

Boudreaux AND Leslie!

Greg Boudreaux and Joel Leslie are two of my absolute favorites, so I was thrilled to see them teaming up, and they both did the bang-up job they’re famous for. However, there is one disappointing thing. Rather than doing a duet reading with each of them taking a role and sticking with it through the entire book, they alternate chapters, each doing all the voices for their chapters. It kills the flow of what could have been an amazing performance. Oh well. I wait in hope for the book Leslie and Boudreaux really do together!

Cute

Cute love story where both people learn to accept themselves as well as each other. Everyone wins.

So goooood!

Loved both the story AND the narration by 2 of my favorites. What a power trio!!

Good love story

Totally enjoyed this book and will buy the next one in the series! I would greatly recommend it. It’s nice to read a love story that was a real romance!!

narration of Arthur sucks

good story line. I should've just read the book instead of listening to it. the narration of Arthur was awful and spoiled the book for me.

Loved This! A Must Listen.

The story is a sweet fake relationship turned real relationship with a cute connection with a solid foundation. They navigate with fun and comedy which causes it to be a book to hear. So listen up, and enjoy the watercolor ride.

Enjoyable

Very cute lighthearted story. One of my favorite things is the fake to real. Derrick and Arthur’s story is full of fun, love and a big family that likes to interfere. Greg Boudreaux and Joel Leslie do a great job bringing Annabeth’s story to life.
