About this listen

I’ve spent 44 years of my life telling the world I’m a carpet man. Is it too late to admit to myself and everyone else that deep down I’m really all about the hardwood?

It took me over 35 years to admit to myself that I’m gay, another seven to find the courage to say it out loud to anyone else, and exactly 30 seconds to develop a massive crush on my daughter’s music teacher. It’s really not my fault. Have you even seen those cute bowties he wears?

After everything it’s taken to get here, am I going to work up the nerve to come out to my ex-wife and my best friends?

Am I ready to shake up my comfortable, simple life and take a chance on Watson? Or, am I going to throw a wrench in my own chance for happily ever after?

Hardwood is a steamy, seriously with so much delicious tension, single-dad, gay awakening, low angst story, which happens to be the third in the Four Bears Construction Series. It can be listened to as a stand-alone. There are no shifters in this series, only the other kind of bears.

I love this series and the narration by Tim and Liam adds a new dimension for me to enjoy again and again.
I thought the performances really captured the characters and the bullet scene was absolutely hilarious 😂

Great story and fantastic narration

I loved this beautiful love story, it was funny, full of great banter, and was full of emotional challenges with a perfect HEA.

Excellent story 👏👏👏

I agree with another reviewer that there was too much internal monologuing about the same issues again and again by both main characters, and nearly coming out and then not doing it got a bit repetitive. There were funny moments, and nice relationship moments, and I still liked the book - but I prefer the other books in the series.

It was ok

I loooove stories where a not-so-straight guy goes through the discovery of loving another man and this book had THE perfect setup for it.
The issue is this book is insanely repetitive and boring. If you delete Ev's inner thoughts about how he "should stop lying" and Wat's inner thoughts on how "he can't like Ev", this book would've been 30 minutes long.

Even their "ups we got interrupted" situations were exactly the same. It's like listening to the same chapter on repeat.

Repetitive to beyond
