About this listen
Kyle isn’t a victim...he’s a survivor who needs to learn his worth.
An omega who’s narrowly escaped an abusive relationship seeks shelter with his flirty friend and boss...
After low self-esteem sent Kyle into the arms of the wrong alpha - a cop with a Napoleon complex - he finds himself in an untenable situation that quickly escalates from bad to worse. After his relationship ends in the worst way imaginable, his boss takes him in, giving him a safe harbor and a friendly shoulder to lean on.
...an alpha with a gentle spirit and a heart of gold.
Dallas has longed for a family of his own, and he’s had his eye on the tall, thick omega with the sweet nature and juicy...smile. After Kyle repeatedly turned him down for dinner dates and got into a bad relationship, Dallas backed off but couldn’t quit flirting with his friend/employee. He’d never have interrupted another person’s relationship, but darn it, he saw Kyle first! Besides, what’s a little flirtation between friends?
Two men who are meant to be together but have a long road to get there.
Dallas knows that Kyle doesn’t need another bossy alpha. He needs to find his own inner warrior and make peace with himself before they can be more than friends.
Kyle is so obsessed with the size of his waist that he almost misses his shot with the one alpha who will love him unconditionally in addition to being his best friend.
A simple bet about getting fit can offer huge rewards in the heart department. But how his Kyle supposed to decrease his waistline and get that six-pack he’s always wanted if he finds himself pregnant?

©2018 Susi Hawke (P)2018 Susi HawkeBook two follows characters that we were introduced to in book one, Kyle and Beau's brother, Dallas. There attraction was clear in book one and we get a chance to catch up with them two years later in this outing. Kyle has a partner that he lives with, Fred, and is still working at the Gym. Dallas is still trying to get Kyle to take him serious when he says that he's interested in him. We have a lot taking place in this book with both men. The two men make a bet about whether Dallas can train Kyle and help him to lose weight/inches and wins a date if he's successful. In the 8 weeks that he has, a lot takes place for both of them but Kyle has a big trauma to recover from as well as a heat that he needs an alpha's help with.
All of the characters return in this story, just with out focus on a different couple. All brothers make an appearance and I love the support, compassion and fight that they provide for each other.
Kyle and Dallas together are a lot of fun, especially when Kyle starts to come out of his shell. They laugh and joke with each other, often just with silly comments made purely to make the other smile. There is a lot that happens in this story but I never felt lost in all that was going on. Susi has written it brilliantly, letting everyone have their time and it flows really well. You can always feel Dallas' protective nature towards Kyle through his thoughts and actions but it is wonderful to read as Kyle's confidence builds with certain things going on throughout the book.
John does a wonderful job, bringing this story and the characters to life. It's easy to feel connected to everything going on and the emotions of our MC's as he speaks their inner monologues and interactions with others. He gives each character their own voice so I have no trouble telling everyone apart and I really enjoyed the fun he brought to Kyle and Dallas' relationship.
This is a great follow up to book one and I recommend this one to fans of that and Susi's. I'm looking forward to listening to book three!
Some more great characters and narration

Dallas has been interested in Kyle for a while (about 2 years). Sadly, Kyle has low self-esteem didn't believe Dallas was really interested. Instead, he ends up dating a soon-to-be abusive alpha. Eventually, Kyle's situation becomes untenable and he's forced to stay with and rely on Dallas. As they live together, Kyle begins to develop more confidence in himself, but just as he gets more comfortable, he find himself pregnant.
It's a fun story that really benefits from John Solo's multilayered performance! He is so good with the characters tones and their feelings - you knew when Kyle was nervous, when Dallas was joking (and when he wasn't, e.g. with Fred ...). He really brought the story to life; I especially loved his characterisation of Houston (and can't wait to listen to that).
This is definitely the best way to experience the series, with John Solo :)
I received a copy of this story; the review is my own opinion and voluntary.
An interesting story richly enhanced by narration
