About this listen
Starting over isn't easy, but Ben is ready to live his life as the man he was always meant to be.
Ben is transgender and is back at the university after hormone treatment and chest surgery. His new housemates have no idea about his history, and Ben would prefer to keep it that way. He's starting from scratch, and his life is finally on track, except in the romance department. The idea of dating guys as a guy is exhilarating but terrifying, because if Ben wants a boyfriend he'll have to disclose his secret.
Sid is drawn to Ben from the moment they meet. He normally gets what he wants - in the short term at least. Ben's guarded at first, and Sid's not used to guys rejecting his advances. He eventually charms his way through Ben's defenses and helps Ben on his journey of sexual awakening.
It doesn't matter to Sid that Ben is trans. He's attracted to the whole person and isn't worried about what is - or isn't - in Ben's pants. They're good together, and both of them are falling hard and fast, but Ben's insecurities keep getting in the way. If Sid can convince Ben he's committed, will Ben finally be able to put his heart on the line?
Although this audiobook is part of the Housemates series, it has new main characters and a satisfying happy ending and can be listened to as a stand-alone.

I really enjoy Ben and Sid's story. I felt for Ben and his journey and felt Jay addressed Ben's past, dysphoria and internalised transphobia with great care, respect and authenticity. I could feel Ben's fears and emotions through Jay's words and I loved how Did was there to ease, tease and please at every moment. I feel these to have a special connection and look forward to going back and forward with the rest of the books in this series!
A great read and really well narrated. My first listen by Lewis and I really enjoyed his style. Looking forward to more from both Jay and Lewis!
A beautiful story
