About this listen

Two closeted men in one rumor-hungry small town have no chance of keeping their love a secret.

Chief of Police Windsor Elkhart is a master deceiver. Not a single person in Jasper has a clue he’s gay, which explains the endless suitors all vying for his attention. Happily married to his job, he’s convinced life is good enough. Twenty years of abstinence is the price he chose to pay, all because of a secret he’s too ashamed to reveal.

Until Tomi Lee returns to town after a two-decade-long absence.

Shame and self-loathing have kept Tomi away from his home town, but can a simple message from a lonely police officer bring him back for good?

The people of Jasper prey on gossip. Everyone is watching everyone. No one is exempt. Falling in love is easy, but do two closeted men have any chance of building a sustainable relationship when they’re always trying to hide?

Concealed Hearts is a low/medium angst MM romance novel with two severely closeted main characters. It is part of the Hometown Jasper Series but can be listened to as a stand-alone.

Ok, I say it again, I love this series! All the characters, main and side are so authentic and fits so well. This story has made me feel warm inside, angry and frustrated, sad, but also laugh out loud.

I was a bit hesitant about this book. I respect people’s privacy, absolutely, but I also am an open book myself most of the time. So closeted grownups... I simply don’t understand! But Nicky managed to explain both mens reasons why in a way that made me believe it. Eyerollingly frustrating sometimes, absolutely, when the fear of getting seen overshadows the feeling of being together. But I understand! What they really need is a hard kick in the butt.

Nick as usual did an excellent job!

Can I move to Jasper?

Listening to it brought it so much to life. The narrator, Nick Russo made the characters come across as the people I’d meet everyday. He is able to bring all the emotion to the audio. I’ve been leaning more toward audio’s and this is proof that I actually enjoy them more than the book. This is the first book I’ve read in this series. A little different than other books I’ve read by her but I have to go back and listen to the rest of this series now its just that good. This is such a heartwarming story. Tomi and Windsor live in so much fear. Being gay has been instilled in then as worse than a disease. Yet when they get together they find out it isn’t what each expected. The author did such a good job of handling how these two each had a established life and their fear, yet how they handled it. I like the contrast between these two men and the two afraid boys, Felix and Grant. I appreciate how the story ended but could have had maybe an extended epilogue about a year later or so.

So emotional

Oh, how much I enjoyed this audio! And look at that, when I read the ebook, I only gave it 4 stars, but now, now, they deserve all the stars. 


Tomi and Windsor on audio is everything. I really loved how the narrator brought them to life, I enjoyed being with them and listening to their story. 


Two closeted gay men, one epic love story and an ending of a great series. I loved this series and Tomi and Windsor are my second favorite pair after Josiah and Shay (okay, mostly Josiah is my favorite, but shhh!) 


I loved everything about this audio. Highly recommend it.
