About this listen

Mac is afraid he won't recover enough to go back to being a cop; Tony's afraid that he will.

Three months after being injured, Detective Jared MacLean is healing, but he's afraid it may not be enough to go back on the job. He won't give up, though. Being a cop is written deep in Mac’s bones, and he'll do whatever it takes to carry his badge again.

Tony used to wish he could have Mac safely home, but watching his strong husband battle disabilities is far from Tony's dream come true. When Mac is asked to consult on a case involving one of Tony's students, both men will have to face old demons and new fears to find a way to move forward together.

(This is a lightly edited rerelease of the 2013 original, bringing Mac and Tony to their HEA.content warning for a domestic abuse case, suicide.)

The final instalment of Tony and Mac’s story was outstanding! I loved the entire series and the characters (both Tony and Mac and the kids) will stay in my heart for a long time! I will miss them all, but it’s good I can get back and read and/or listen about them anytime I want!
In this last instalment Mac is still trying to recover after being shot and he is desperate to get back to the job that is such a defining trait for him. Being a cop is not only a job for him, it’s who he is.
Meanwhile Tony, who was never so trilled with Mac’s job to begin with, is struggling more and more to be accepting and supporting of Mac’s desire to get back to active duty.
Among these struggles, there’s everyday life going on, with two kids, home life and its ups and downs.
Kaje Harper has done a wonderful job with this series: it’s a perfect balance of action, drama, and perfectly ordinary everyday moments.
J.F. Harding is doing a great job with his series, and he has once again outdone himself in bringing all the characters to life in a spectacular way!

I loved this series so much.

What a marvelous way to end Mac and Tony’s story! In Learning Curve, Kaje Harper pulls out all the stops with the perfect blend of tugging on our heartstrings emotion, edge of our seats action, and whoo-ha *smokey-steamy* loving! Mac and Tony have truly got it right!

Fans of Kaje Harper’s Life Lessons series who have been waiting for the final book to be available in audio… wait no more! J.F. Harding’s performance is simply spectacular in all four novels. The emotion he’s poured into these characters, the tension in his delivery as the suspense builds, and the variety of voices and accents he’s created for this vast cast. It has been an amazing experience!

The thing which impressed me the most in the audio version of Learning Curve, is J.F. Harding’s rendering of Mac’s post-accident recovery voice. Mac’s stuttering, choppy, formal speech pattern gradually improves throughout the story, and Mr. Harding executes it flawlessly.

Intriguing mysteries, compelling family drama, and gorgeous erotic and intimate romance scenes, Kaje Harper’s Love Lessons series is not to be missed.

I feel you need to read/listen to the previous before this story. This is the next chapter in the lives of Mac and Tony. I love these characters. Their story touches on every day normal. Mac being a police officer is dealing with issues of being shot. He is facing the fact he may never go back to what he used to be. Tony has his own problems plus he has the fear of Mac going back to work. There are so many different things happening and many family issues getting addressed that I could not quit listening and just kept ignoring things around me. I’m so glad the author is continuing this series. It is so easy to get attached to these characters and the pace the author moves this story makes it impossible for me to find a stopping spot. The narration by J.F. Harding made these characters so real. Perfect voice for this story.

Love this chapter of their story

I’ve been looking forward to listening to this audiobook ever since I finished book three, Home Work. I knew it would be wonderful because the first three books were. In Learning Curve Tony and Mac get the solid HEA that they’ve worked so hard for,

Mac has been working hard to get his speech back to normal after the life altering injury he suffered in Home Work. He wants to return to work as a homicide detective – full time, not on limited duty. Tony loves Mac and he wants him to be happy but he really doesn’t want him to be a cop any more. This is something that Tony has to deal with because he knows what being a cop means to Mac.

Tony has his own trials to deal with in Learning Curve. The way he interacts with students and the GSA (Gay-Straight Alliance) is questioned and he has to handle Ben’s grandparents after a big event happens for him and Ben.

This series has followed the ups and downs of two men who love each other. Mac goes from being in the closet to being married to the love of his life and coming out to his co-workers, friends and family. I’ve come to feel like I know Mac and Tony after reading about all of the things they’ve had to handle as part of their everyday life and I’m going to miss them.

Life Lessons has been a wonderful series to listen to. JF Harding does a wonderful job performing these stories. The way he captures Mac’s speech problems is chillingly good (especially in book 3). I can’t say enough good things about Learning Curve and the entire series. It’s been my pleasure to follow Mac and Tony on this journey and I’m so glad that I was able to listen to these audiobooks.
