Summary
Aaron isn’t looking for love, but it finds him–and it has a few surprises in store....
A laidback man who goes with the flow
Aaron is happy for his friends who’ve found love, but he’s starting to feel as if he’s an endangered species–a single guy. Not that he’s looking for anyone. But if someone were to turn up, he figures they would be female, younger than his 27 years, and as disinterested as he was in searching for a soul mate.
He’s about to get it wrong on most counts.
Working in the Acadia National Park, he meets all kinds of people, like that painter he met the other day. A quiet guy, but he certainly made an impression. Because for some reason, Aaron can’t get him out of his mind.
A bruised soul seeking inspiration
Dean has picked up his paintbrush again. A famous artist who’s spent the last couple of years producing book illustrations under a different name, he’s come back to Maine seeking inspiration–and leaving the past behind him. The glorious natural beauty breathes new life into him, and it brings with it a new friend, a handsome ranger, the only person Dean has felt a connection to in a long time.
But when that connection unexpectedly becomes physical and Dean’s emotions get entangled, he fears history is about to repeat itself.
He’s not about to let his heart be broken a second time.

Like painting love takes a while
Romance can take a while and two men who are nervous about putting their feelings out there it can certainly it's time. Juggling romance with a full on job can be a problem and has it's funny moments.

A Story to Charm Your Heart! Fantastic Story🎧📚🎧
K.C. Wells’ Maine Men series is one of my favorite series and I do not have just one reason I have eight and that is not including the author’s wonderful writing style. Those eight reasons are: Levi, Noah, Aaron, Ben, Dylan, Finn, Seb, and Shaun, a group of friends who have bonded over the years. These characters are amazing and so are their stories, they are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they are easy to care about and fall for too. Each book features a different lead character, one of those Maine men, and since they are all friends, they reappear in each other’s books as well, but the books stand on their own and everything you need to know is in the descriptive details so you never feel lost or as if you are missing something, but seeing the other characters are like seeing old friends if you have read or listened to the earlier books. This book is Aaron’s story, and I loved we got to see more of the Maine men gatherings again and the group has expanded to include the significant others and new found loves from the first five books, so now they are up to thirteen. Aaron, the one straight guy of the group, has watched his friends find their soul mates, but he has not found that for himself and has given up on finding love but he soon learns love will come when he least expects it and not how or who he expected. Dean, an artist, was heartbroken when his lover burned him not only by leaving him for a woman but by saying he was just an experiment. He also lost his muse and his desire to paint that day. A couple of years have passed, and he finally thinks he is ready to paint again and goes to Maine for inspiration. Dean, an artist, was heartbroken when his lover burned him not only by leaving him for a woman but by saying he was just an experiment. He also lost his muse and his desire to paint that day. A couple of years have passed, and he finally thinks he is ready to paint again and goes to Maine for inspiration. While exploring the landscape, he meets the park ranger and starts chatting it up with him. He felt an instant connection to him, though it was disappointing to learn he was straight, but the two continued to spend time together as friends. Aaron feels the connection and starts to question his sexuality, and the two have an open dialogue about it. Dean thinks he learned his lesson about getting involved with a straight man from his past relationship, but Aaron is not his ex. This is a beautifully written and plotted story that has a perfect balance of drama, heartfelt emotions, and some steamy romance. K.C. Wells, thank you for another wonderful story that just charmed my heart.
🎧📚🎧 And for the wonderful narration, John Solo continues to do an amazing job bringing these characters and their stories to life. His portrayal of the characters is exceptional, as are his character voices, which have been consistent throughout the entire series. He sets the perfect tone for the story and his pacing is spot on. You could hear how much heart he puts into his work as he captures all the characters’ emotions and projects them into his performance. John Solo is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to and his narration enhances an already amazing story to another level. Thank you for another fabulous listen.

A great bi-awakening story.
If you haven’t read the other books in this series, I think you can read this as a standalone but you will probably enjoy it more if you’ve read the series in order. I love how K.C. Wells has woven all of the Maine Men stories together while giving each couple their own HEA in their individual books.
I’ve really enjoyed seeing each of the guys in this tight group of friends get their HEA. Aaron gets his in this story just not quite the way he expected. Aaron has always been pretty laid back and we really get to see that in this story. He’s the only one of his group of friends who’s straight – or so he thought.
Dean had a bad breakup with a boyfriend five years ago and it really set him into a tailspin. He was no longer able to paint the beautiful canvases he had become known for and instead started doing illustrations for books, albeit not under his real name. When he meets Aaron something clicks and he starts painting again like crazy; he’s found a new muse – too bad he’s straight.
I love a good bi-awakening story and this one is beautiful. It has the added bonus of being a friends-to-lovers one as Aaron and Dean begin a great friendship before they start a friends-with-benefits arrangement and finally move on to something much deeper.
Once again, John Solo did a fantastic job performing this audiobook. I'm so glad that KC has been using him for her books in this series.
A complimentary copy of this audiobook was provided to me at my request but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author and/or narrator.

Aaron and Dean's story
Another great instalment in this series a good story and good narration. What more could we ask for.
More of a fun book for this group of friends you would love to have. The backstory for this book is well written. I loved reading/listening to this book; of course, we got our HEA. Well worth the read.
Aaron is the only straight friend in their friend's group, most of his friends have hooked up with someone significant over the last year, but Aaron couldn't find that special person. But what he has found is another friend to add to their ever-growing friend group.
Dean, an artist who had a five-year break from painting due to a rough breakup, gradually relocated back to where he lived as a child. Not wanting a relationship, he was delighted to meet Aaron, join his friendship group, and meet Grammy.
Even though this book is part of the Maine Men series, each book, in my opinion, can be read alone, although you do get to meet all the other men briefly in each book and the wonderful Grammy who loves a party.
A well-written book about men, love and second chances in life and how we can all be on the rainbow spectrum. Excellent Narration from John Solo again. I speed up the narration to 1.30. but this is usual for me, and I find most people read too slowly.
