About this listen
Love is for other people, not for me….
At least that’s what I believed, until I met him. Julian Hill. The most famous rock star on the planet. A music god with untidy hair and the voice of an angel.
I’ll never be anything but out, and he has very good reasons to stay in the closet. After all, every move he makes is dissected, critiqued, and shared on social media, so he just wants a little privacy. I understand that. Truly, I do.
But no one makes me feel the way he does, and I’m pretty sure he has feelings for me as well. Which is inconvenient, since his record label just hired me to sue him. Guess I should’ve sorted things out before I kissed him…oops.
Ambiguous is an addictive MM bisexual romance novel about a fashion-forward rock singer who hates labels of all kinds (except for clothing), a dapper attorney who already has a (fake) boyfriend for a very good reason, and the possibility of love saving the day in a sensually stimulating “opposites-attract” romance story. In addition to the compassionate, big-hearted main characters and engaging, steamy interactions, LGBTQ+ romance fans are raving about the refreshingly honest discussions about homophobia, acceptance, bisexuality, and gay rights, which flow seamlessly into the heartwarming, soul-stirring love story.

From the start, I related to Sam. Slightly clumsy, making a fool of himself, wanting to make a good impression and then believing he failed – these are all things I can intensely relate to. He’s a lawyer whose family’s political ambitions know no bounds. In California – and being of a liberal bent – that means supporting LGBTQ rights. Having a gay son who is dating the son of another prominent politician is just good optics. Forget that Sam views the man as a friend. He’s just going along dealing with the homophobic boss and the assignment of babysitting some pampered rock star. If it means he can keep doing his pro bono work, Sam’ll do it. Doesn’t help that Julian isn’t just attractive – he’s a genuinely good guy.
Julian is that rock star. He doesn’t want to be babysat. He wants his muse back. He’s agreed to write a solo album and he’s stuck. He came up first through a boy band and then into his current group – who are great – but this is a journey he’s on his own for. Except he’s got Sam there. Sam who makes him laugh. Sam who helps him face his fears – both irrational and not. Sam who supports him – even at great personal and professional expense. Sam who lives his life out and proud as a gay man. Julian dislikes labels – but straight doesn’t fit. He’s tried to express himself in clothing – only to have people see it as a fashion statement rather than the personal one he’s trying to make. He’s being pushed into owning something he’s not ready to do. I can completely relate – if you are going to come out as anything other than the heteronormative cis and straight, it needs to be done on your timeline, not someone else’s.
If you can’t tell, I really enjoyed this story. Sam and Julian were perfect together. And they couldn’t keep their hands off each other, which totally made the story hot. But it was also touching as both men had to grapple with what they wanted, what their families demanded, and what society expected. In the end, I got a great book.
I adore both Hamish Long and Kirt Graves as narrators. I was excited to see the two men working together and they did a fantastic job. If they team up again, I’m definitely in.
Really enjoyed this one

Julian has not done anything to rock the boat as a rock star. He takes the time to interact with the fans. His behavior is more boring than outrageous. His orientation isn’t advertised nor denied. Then he meets Sam. The attraction between Sam and Julian changes everything.
Sam is an attorney that is given the job of getting Julian to live up to his contract. As Sam meets Julian his attraction changes everything in his personal and career life. Sam comes from a political family and has been fake dating his friend Kurt to promote the political campaign of his grandfather.
When it becomes public that Julian is gay and dating Sam both of their lives are in turmoil. Does the political career of Fred Stone matter more than honesty? What happens to the relationship between Julian and his brother Colin? I could not stop listening until Julian and Sam decide what actions they will deal with. I feel the author did an excellent job of the ending.
The narrations by Hamish Long and Kirt Graves made me feel the characters and situations were real. They made the story very easy to focus on and enjoyable.
Enjoyable

3.5⭐️ story
Yall the non-relationship parts of this plot were MESSY. But the actual romance was great! I will definitely continue on with this series as I read books 2 & 2.5 first and enjoyed them more.
wonderful romance

Sometimes I don’t care too much for dual narration in an MM book (each actor takes a different chapter). If the voices are too dissimilar it’s jarring to me when the chapters shift. That absolutely wasn’t an issue with these two. Kirt Graves does a great British accent and Hamish Long does a fine American accent. I almost didn’t notice when the chapters changed – and I mean that as a great compliment so I hope they take it that way.
This is a really great slow-burn, fairly low-angst book. Sam has to standup to his family so that he can have what he wants and not what they want. Julian has to decide whether or not to reveal his true self and come out so that he can be in a relationship with Sam and not have to hide.
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.
I was invested in this from beginning to end.
