About this listen

Blair Anderson only thinks of Caden Bell as his best friend’s younger brother, a straitlaced jock still dating his high-school sweetheart. They are as different as night and day. Caden has always considered Blair an enigma, the way he lights up every room with his self-confidence and perfectly sculpted cheekbones. But since childhood they’ve drifted worlds apart.

Life as an international model isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, so when Blair escapes to his best friend’s beach house for some R&R, he’s shocked to discover Caden had the same idea. Apparently, he called it quits with his girlfriend and was looking for a little alone time, too.

Instead of rock, paper, scissors to determine who gets to stay, they decide to share the house and keep out of each other’s way. Easier said than done. As they reconnect, Blair is captivated by Caden’s bald honesty. And Caden realizes that Blair isn’t a mystery - he’s genuine and funny and still utterly gorgeous.

Seeing Blair in a new light short-circuits Caden’s brain, and before he knows it, he’s confiding in Blair about his bi-curiosity. Blair couldn’t be more taken aback as advice turns to solace, then ignites into an intense spark neither man anticipated. Blair had done and seen it all, so what could it hurt to help Caden experience some new things?

After all, it’s only a holiday hookup.

Until it’s not.

Please note: This book completely stands alone from Beautiful Dreamer, and they do not have to be heard in order.

Blair takes some alone-time to sort his head out at his best friend’s beach house while they’re away for Christmas, only to find his best friend’s younger brother, Caden, has had the same idea. This was an even richer story than Beautiful Dreamer. As a model, Blair has battled an eating disorder and he’s tired of the demands of his job. Caden has recently split from his girlfriend as he contemplates his sexuality. I thoroughly enjoyed this, both men are confident in themselves and are just taking a pause to adjust, and it was lovely to spend time with them as they grew close. 🎧 Michael Dean manoeuvred effortlessly between the two characters with well-judged pacing and emotion.

A sweet holiday romance with some nice depth!

Michael Dean did a great job narrating this sweet Christmas romance. I thought the "brother's best friend" aspect of the story was nicely paced, with relatable characters and sizzling hot chemistry. Family drama didn't play a big role in the story, which was a relief for me, and because of it the focus was much more on Blair and Caden's relationship. It did take me a while to warm up to Blair in particular, but as I followed his interactions with Caden, I saw what a genuinely kind person he was. He and Caden were really sweet together, and I had a ton of fun listening to them explore each other in and out of the bedroom. If I'm being super picky, I'd say that I wish the two of them had more time alone before the family Christmas derailed their plans, but given that they grew up together, I could still believe the level of trust they had with each other. All in all, I enjoyed myself from start to finish, and I'm pleased that Christina Lee gave us a peek at how their relationship evolved post-holiday.
