Acerca de esta escucha
Skyler finally had it all...
...but for the third time, the state had taken everything away from him.
It wasn't his fault, though, or was it?
If only he hadn't been so stupid...
If only he hadn't been so careless...
If only he hadn't fallen in love with his best friend, Cameron.
Now, sitting in the social worker's SUV, he stared at his new house and the strangers standing on the front steps. His life had been an uphill climb, and now he had to start over.
Again.
One day, he might call them family, but he had finally learned his lesson.
This time, Skyler wouldn't be stupid.
This time, Skyler wouldn't be careless.
And no matter what, he definitely, absolutely, wouldn't fall in love with another cute boy.
Skyler Phoenix is the first book of the Love Grows in Honest Places series.
Get it now.

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.

Bookstore owner Aubrey Barnes likes his quiet, orderly London life, thank you very much. His shop may be struggling, his only employee is a menace, and his plumbing is one creaky pipe away from disaster, but he can handle it. Maybe. He cannot, however, handle the film company that's thrown his Soho street into chaos. And he definitely can't handle the charismatic American actor Blake Sinclair.

When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse.

Colin: My life is pretty quiet, and I prefer it that way. I do my schoolwork, I have what some would call a nerdy hobby, and I have my, um...toys. Tutoring pays the bills, and when I’m asked to help the star football player fix his grades, it’s just another job, right? Then I find out he’s a dragon-shifter who likes to party rather than study. God, I wonder if the stories about dragon-shifter anatomy are true? Not that I’m likely to find out, since he’s clearly straight!

There are plenty of words Jonah Collins could use to describe Dylan Ramírez. “Arrogant,” “spoiled,” and “golden boy” to name a few. Likewise, Dylan thinks he has Jonah accurately labeled as an attention-seeking asshat who never shuts his filthy mouth. Their friends are convinced Jonah’s and Dylan’s disdain for one another is just thinly veiled lust—a rumor that surges like wildfire when the two wake up in one bed after homecoming. Mutually horrified, Dylan and Jonah agree to use the faux pas to their advantage by fake dating.

To clean up his image, Luc has to find a nice normal relationship...and Oliver Blackwood is as nice and normal as they come. He's a barrister, an ethical vegetarian, and someone who has never inspired a moment of scandal in his life. He’s perfect boyfriend material.

Good Listen
This is a pretty sweet yet heartbreaking at times coming of age story. I really did enjoy the characters. It is slightly unbelievable throughout the 2nd half but just go with it and enjoy. The narration is done well if some of the character voices were questionable I think Palacios' performance (and yes audio book is a performance and not just a reading in my opinion) did a fantastic job bringing this story and these characters to life.

Third Time's the Charm
This was a truly heartfelt, uplifting and engaging story, and one I think every gay teenager or anyone who has ever been bullied, or been a bully needs to hear. Heck, maybe every teenager. I think there is something here in the angst of youth for everyone to relate to. I think some of the growth and healing at the end came rather quickly, but I liked the outcome for everyone. I felt so much for Skyler, he had been through so much pain. I really thought his second home would be a respite, but it was not to be. Thankfully, the third time was the charm for him, and he was able to overcome the dysfunction of his prior foster homes. One thing I would have done differently as the author is vary the names more. Having so many hard C's and close-sounding names (Cam, Colton/CK, Cody, Kalen) did make it hard sometimes for me to keep all the different characters clear.
The narration was pretty good, but sometimes it wasn't clear if Skyler was just thinking something or actually saying the words out loud. Also, the "giggling" was a little weird.
I received a free copy of the audiobook through StoryOrigin and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

Skyler Phoenix
Trigger Warnings: foster, religion/Christianity, terminal illness, past death of a parent, alcohol, abuse, homophobia, sex, masturbation, cancer, cursing, underage drinking, coming out, outing, bullying, violence, police interactions, alcoholism
Representation: Gay
Skyler Phoenix is a gay romance about Skyler Phoenix, who is abandoned by his foster parents when they find out he is gay. Skyler doesn’t understand how they can promise to love everyone at church but choose to hate him because he’s different. Skyler’s social worker told him to keep his chin up, but that is hard when he doesn’t know if he’s headed for the streets or the orphanage on the other side of town.
Honestly, I’m a little ashamed to admit this but I always fall victim to the misconception that indie published books are of a lower quality than traditionally published. I am so happy to say this story proved me incredibly wrong! This is a great story from an unknown to me author who perfectly captures what it’s like to not be accepted by “family” because of your sexuality. He did such a great job with balancing religious trauma and romance, no easy feat! While I have no experience with the foster care system, I thought this was a great example of some of the horrors within. Overall, I just really enjoyed this story and I hope it becomes way more popular soon!

a lovely story
A lovely growing-up story about accepting one's self and coming out. heartbreaking at times, and at others - full of hope. I could really feel the pain and then the love and acceptance.
The narrator was a little annoying with his "festive" voice or the female voices. It sounded fake and over the top. Other than that he was okay.

Good story, not so great narration
I read this on my kindle a couple years ago and enjoyed it so much that I decided to try the audio book. I should have re read the kindle version. The narration is so over the top, especially the Tracy character, plus it drives me crazy when he bursts out laughing after reading “Skyler laughed”. Now I don’t think I will ever be able to read the book again without hearing the narrator in my head.

Loved the kindle edition, Audo book not so much
Voicing Liara with a New York Jewish woman accent was just off putting. Some of the male narration done with a syrupy inflect was annoying and not how kids speak. The giggles became annoying. the narrator needs to understand hes not acting but reading a book to an audience and to not go overboard.

Overall, a good story
I'm giving this book a solid 3 stars. I absolutely loved the book's first half when Sklyer is dealing with the situation with the Tisdales and Cam. There were solid emotional beats, and the story felt realistic. I am from the South, and this is precisely how anyone in the LGBTQIA+ community would be treated. I was a snotty mess when he watched Prayers for Bobby with his foster dad, Stephen, and siblings. It adds some nuisance to the story. Not everyone who is a Christian is completely irredeemable, and the best way to help them is to educate them. I definitely feel like Stephen could change and did change. Whether he will stay that way once his wife regains control of him remains to be seen. It also broke my heart when Skyler had to say goodbye to his siblings.
Then we get to the middle of the book when Sklyar meets his third foster family, the Kelleys. This was okay, if not a little too good to be true. I did immensely enjoy Dale and Liara. I love that their relationship is so open and the way they talk to CK and Skyler, and how supportive they are. It's from about the point in the story when Skylar starts going out with Kalin that things begin to fall apart for me. I do like Kalin, and they make a cute couple, but the story seemed to stumble here and made the last bit of the book feel like it lasted forever, and I ended up losing some interest in the characters. Some of the dialogue, especially once Skylar makes it to the Kelley household, is a bit much. Teenagers do not talk or even act in some of the ways described.
I did listen to this as an audiobook, and the narration was a bit much at times. It was hard to decipher between many of the male voices, which seemed very stereotypical surfer dudes. The female voices came out as overly Valley Girl in most cases. Giggles were also a little weird.
Overall, I did enjoy this book and took many great moments from it.
