About this listen

Rider doesn’t have a lot of rules when it comes to guys, but there is one - he doesn’t date, not ever. He’s content with random hookups because dating means too much. That’s reserved for the one person he knows he can never have: his best friend, Cameron.

After watching his own family fall apart, Cam longs for someone who will stick it out through thick and thin. He’s had a string of girlfriends who never seem to be the right one. The one person he can always count on is Rider.

One night out changes everything between them. When Rider ends up telling Cam the secret he’s been hiding, Cam is left reeling. But will an accident end Cam’s chances to figure out what it means for them?

All the Stars is a heartwarming story of friendship, love, and finding the one that was right in front of you all along.

The Love Bank Romance series features sweet LGBTQ love stories with a little heat.

Rider and Cam are best friends. Rider would like more, but he's always assumed Cam is straight even though Cam has never had a long-term girlfriend. Both have "settled" for hooking up with the wrong people when the right one was in front of them all the time. This is a lovely story of friends to lovers and about the power of being honest about how you feel - taking that risk. The narration captured all the emotions of the story perfectly, especially the joy when things fell into place in these guys romantic lives.

Sweet wonderful story with great narration

This is the first audiobook I’ve listened to by either of the narrators and it’s also the first book I’ve read by Duckie Mack. Both narrators did a good job but I did enjoy Kevin’s narration a bit more than Cole’s.

I thought this was a good friends-to-lovers story (one of my favorite romance tropes). Rider did a lot of pining for Cam but Cam finally woke up and realized that he had feelings for Rider. This was an engaging story and I’m glad that I listened to it.

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.

Good out-for-you, new adult story.

I didn't know the author, Duckie Mack, or the two narrators of this audiobook and was very excited to hear the content.
It is about a friends-to-lovers story that is really well done. It was easy to empathize with the protagonists and from the beginning you could feel the strong friendship that Cameron and Rider share. But Rider is interested in more than just Cameron's friendship and therefore can't get involved with anyone else. As for Camoron's interest in Rider, it was little things that seemed odd to him, but in retrospect make sense. The author portrayed that well and also believably.
I liked Cameron and Rider, they are two likeable characters. But not only are the main protagonists interesting, there is also a great secondary protagonist that I would love to hear or read more about.
Rider and Cameron have great chemistry, and I liked this slowly developing sweet romance with wonderful moments.

The audiobook was entertaining, helped by the two narrators, Cole Michael Kurcz and Kevin Earlywine. The two were both good and their voices totally suited the teenage protagonists. The pace of speech and intonations were great and I'm happy to listen to more audiobooks with these two as narrators.

This was a really sweet and romantic friends to lovers romance. I really liked both of the main characters and I loved how their relationship evolved and how they also grew as individuals. I also thought that Cameron's sexual awakening was beautifully written. The narrators did a brilliant job bringing this great love story to life.

So sweet!

This had a YA feel which I don't normally read but I love friends to lovers so I decided to read it and it did not disappoint. This was a fairly quick read that was sweet, low angst, low heat but had all the amazing chemisty and all the feels. Once I started I couldn't stop listening til it was over. I didn't even mind that it was younger characters, it was very mature sounding and a wonderful story about friends self discovery and falling in love. I would absolutely recommend this.

The narrators both had pleasant sounding and age appropriate voices. They expressed the emotions well and made it an enjoyable listening experience bringing the story to life. They didn't do different voices for the different characters but with the dual narration for each characters different pov, I still really enjoyed it and found it easy to follow.

Wonderful story
