About this listen
Two strangers whose paths should never have crossed. One traumatic encounter that brings them together.
After high school senior Silas Brigs is rescued from an attempted assault, he finds himself indebted to a blond stranger. But he wants nothing to do with the calm, quiet Ben Adams. The California diver reminds Silas too much of what brought them together in the first place, an event he just wants to forget. Yet no matter how hard Silas tries to distance himself, the closer the two inevitably gravitate.
With Silas's attacker lurking in the shadows combined with Ben's mysterious history, their blossoming friendship seems doomed to failure. Both are haunted by their shattered pasts, but can they learn to face their demons together? Because, no matter how much Silas wants to resist, they're exactly what the other needs. Even if they don't know it, yet.
Trigger Warnings: On-screen, semi-graphic attempted sexual assault, aftermath and trauma of assault, homophobia (including but not limited to: bullying, dialogue, insults/slurs, physical abuse/assault, etc.), mentions of past parental abandonment and abuse, and underage substance use, including alcohol and marijuana.

High Schooler Silas is under attack from a high school bully. Ben rescues Silas after his bully decides to take it too far, and Silas freezes.
The characters are well-defined, and you can relate to them easily.
The narration by Nick Newport was clear and precise; this is the first book I've listened to by this narrator, and I only had to speed up to 1.20 on audible.

It also wasn’t an easy book. It begins with an attempted assault and that spectre looms large over the entire story. This book is told almost entirely from Silas’s point of view and I really liked the sassy young man. He’s bold, funny, and completely besotted with the gorgeous but enigmatic Ben – his rescuer. But Ben’s straight and Silas, for all his foibles, isn’t chasing after a straight guy.
Except, the more time they spend together, the harder Silas is falling.
I loathed high school, and always find listening to books in that setting as traumatic. But good writing both puts me right back in there and keeps me grounded in my own much happier world. This is a great book.
I wasn’t familiar with Nick Newport, but he was the perfect narrator for this book and I enjoyed all of it. There’s more to come, and I can’t wait.
Powerful young adult story

The narrator is new to me, and other than a bit of a stilted or halting delivery at times, he did great with the performance & emotions, sound effects too. Good job all around
Good YA or NA romance,

This is the first time I’ve listened to Nick Newport and I wasn’t disappointed with his performance. Another narrator to add to my favourite list.
Fantastic performance
