About this listen

One artist. One attorney. Two single dads.

Meeting at a bachelor auction for charity had trouble written all over it as far as I was concerned, especially when the guy that won the bid for me seemed to be after only one thing...a good time between the sheets.

Refusing Fletcher’s advances was easy the first time round. After all, we weren’t meant to see each other again.

Except I’ve just moved to Stillwater where Fletcher lives.

Except both our kids are in the same class.

Now the kids are fighting and I’m ready to throw my own punches.

If only Fletcher wasn’t as goddamn irresistible as he is irritating.

When the fight moves from the playground to the bedroom, who will come out on top?

Antagonist is book one in Ana Ashley’s new series, Dads of Stillwater.

Single dads, sassy kids, Ana’s usual cast of intriguing secondary characters, Stillwater has it all.

I listened to the audiobook narrated by John Solo, who is a wonderful narrator.
Dad's of Stillwater is written extremely well, and John Solo delivers a stunning performance
It begins at a bachelor auction in a small town where Fletcher and Harrison met.
There are always good things and some bad things that happen in small towns and Stillwater is no different .

Single dads, cute and sassy children, awkward women, adding a good plot made this a great listen.
John Solo brings the story alive.

Antagonist was a lot of fun to read. Two men who rub each other the wrong (and right!) ways throughout much of the book along with getting to catch up with people from the Chester Falls series as well brings a lot of entertainment though there's a good deal of drama as well in the form of meddling, thinks the know best people and a parent wanting things all their own way.
Harrison and Fletcher definitely don't get off to the best start and continue that way for a good deal of the story. It did get a tiny bit frustrating when conversations constantly seemed to end abruptly, causing them to be frequently annoyed with each other and themselves but then that all adds to the drama of the story. The two men have great chemistry and really work well as a couple, very much opposites attract, with a bang. The kids in the story are so sweet, I especially love George for what he goes through.
The dramatic aspects of the plot work both for and against the couple. The holier than thou woman who thinks she knows best actually gives them something to work together for and fight against, even leading to their first kiss. But then someone who causes tension, says kids or at least stretches the truth has them doubting what they each know to be true, that they belong together.
Again, there is a great cast of characters, a wonderful community that Fletcher is a part of and welcomes Harrison with open arms when they move to Stillwater. His relativity his ex wife and best friend is fun and supportive, which is really needed especially towards the end of the book.
another wonderful read from Ana and I'm excited for who gets their story next. if it's anything like the Chester Falls series then it's going to be a lot of fun, love and friendship.
John Solo has a wonderful voice for romance. I felt everything that the characters were and really enjoyed the voices that he provides to them. I think my favourite may now be George and Megan having listened to their antics.

Don't always go with 1st, or even 2nd, impression

Antagonist was a book that I enjoyed. Harrison, a lawyer, and Fletcher, an artist, don't get off to the best start when they meet. It doesn't get any better when they meet again months later after Harrison moves to Stillwater. But they both have one thing in common: they are single dads.
I really liked this story. Harrison and Flechter are fathers who interact a lot with their children, and yet the children didn't take center stage in the story. At first, the two were quick-tempered with each other, but you could tell as you listened that there was chemistry between the two. Yes, these two are hot!
Reuniting with people from the Chester Falls series provided a lot of entertainment. And as it just so happens, everyone is trying to give good advice.
I liked the overall package because just like in real life, there were kids, wives, ex-wives, friends and a found family.
Of course it doesn't go without drama and intrigue. But I liked how they both functioned together as a couple with all the outside adversity.
I had entertaining hours in Stillwater and rejoiced with Harrison and Flechter at the end. I'm already on the lookout for the next couple in the series.

The audiobook was read by John Solo and he a is wonderful narrator. He brings the story to life and reads with variety. However, sometimes he whispers quite softly.

I received a free review copy of this audiobook and volunteered this honest review.

Enjoyable - 4,5 stars

I loved the book when I read it and knew the audio would be fantastic - and I wasn’t wrong! John Solo definitely does amazingly at bringing the whole cast of characters to life!

I love Fletcher and Harrison’s characters and relationship. They way things built between them from how they meet to the kids - everything just kept me wanting more.

Looking forward to more from the series!

Great listen!

Such colourful characters that'll steal your heart and adorable kids that'll make you laugh, this story is everything you need in a heartfelt small town romance!

Harrison and Fletcher are wonderful together and while there's a lot of miscommunication and doubts their feelings always shine through.

This book is witty, frustrating, passionate and uplifting. I loved all the characters and can't wait to see what happens next. i also loved that both main characters are openly bisexual and unashamed! I felt their sexuality was handled well and as a bisexual I felt seen. A great story all round!!

Chemistry and kismet!
