Finn
Ulysses MacDonald left my bed after earth-shattering sex, but he certainly hasn’t left my mind. When he turns up as the Mission City Gazette's new editor, I'm intrigued. Then he starts poking around my fire hall, sneaking and spying. He won't tell me what he's doing there, and he keeps dodging my attempts to get close. I don't trust him, but Ulysses is hot as hell, and I hate realizing I still want him.
Ulysses
Sleeping with Finnegan O’Sullivan should’ve felt like a mistake—but it doesn’t. I’m still attracted to the firefighter’s quick wit and willingness to put his body on the line to save total strangers. But an anonymous tip has led me to illegal activities in Fire Hall One, and I'm a reporter before anything else. I'm not going to back off or get distracted, just because Finn is around. My first job now is to figure out if Finn is involved in the crimes, or just an oblivious bystander. If I'm wrong, I might ruin a good man’s reputation. Oh, and I might also get us both killed.
Ulysses’s Ultimatum is an interracial, age-gap, grumpy/sunshine, small-town, gay romantic suspense novel with a valiant firefighter, an investigative reporter with a dubious past, and the secret that might destroy them both.

We met Finn, a hot firefighter, living in Mission City and volunteering wherever he can, and
Ulysses, the local paper reporter, in a Mission City Short, book 6.5, I would recommend that you read that first, but it's not essential.
Ulysses departs in the middle of the night, without a goodbye or a thank-you.
That was where the short novella left us hanging for more, and now we have it. Boy, what a great story it is, unfolding slowly, lots of plot twists and with plenty of hookups in between.
Both men have good character backgrounds, and I love how the story brings in all the characters we've met from the previous Mission City books; however, you can read this as a standalone.
Michael Dean did an excellent job of narrating this book. As usual, I sped up the recording to 1.20 on Audible.

There is a distinct push and pull between the two main characters throughout the story. They clearly like each other but there is tension due to the fact that Ulysses is keeping secrets because of his job as a journalist investigating Finn's place of work and people he knows in Mission city. This of course frustrates Finn but Ulysses has a job to do - and he discovers more than he thought!
The book can be listened to as a standalone but I would recommend you listen to Finn's Find beforehand. To get the full experience, listen to the other books in the series.
As always Gabbi Grey delivers a great story and narrator Michael Dean brings it to life. I love this world that has been built. We have people from the previous stories pop up naturally and a HEA. What more can you want🥰
The firefighter and the journalist♥️

Story - Finn and Ulysses had met previously and had a very enjoyable night, after which Ulysses disappeared, leaving Finn feeling ghosted. The mystery which Ulysses was investigating as a reporter was appropriately complicated, and made it even more believable that it took the MCs so long to be able to learn to trust each other. Finn was often too good to be true, so the way he sometimes kept Ulysses at a distance relieved that. There were good cameos of the usual Mission City characters, and the introduction at the end of one of the next main characters in the series.
very good

Finn is the ultimate good guy, firefighter, volunteer at kids hospital and animal rescue, and all around sweetheart.
Ulysses is more guarded, his main focus is to uncover a story, but he's hopelessly drawn to Finn and conflicted about using him.
Loved the small town atmosphere, the grumpy sunshine dynamics, and the mystery layers from the investigations.
I liked how everything came together, and it exposes corruption and crimes.
The narration flowed really well, I liked the distinction between Ulysses and Finn's voices and internal conflicts. It was easy to listen too and felt engaging.
A spicy mm age gap romance, with mystery and tension.

The new arrival to the town didn’t move here just for the small town life, and he wasn’t expecting the complication of sleeping with the very tempting Finnegan, the firefighter whose station is under his investigation.
These two can't stay away from each other, but they also don’t trust that they can be entirely open to each other. Which of course, causes wrinkles when they both have questions and both have secrets.
Finnegan is a little too good at avoiding questions for someone who doesn’t think things are wrong, but otherwise, they are super interesting story.
Michael Dean does a nice job with the narration. He has a wonderful voice that is wonderful to listen to.
