About this listen

Love and History

The sporty roommate, the professor, and a history lesson....

Holden

Ezra might be the most annoying roommate ever. He’s loud, obnoxious, and full of himself. So what if he’s a tall, muscular, tattooed jock? His tendency to strip to his boxers in the kitchen while helping himself to my food isn’t endearing in the slightest. Nope. Ezra has to go.

However, I have to admit, he’s the perfect fit to play the king for my historic reenactment event. Ezra in a royal robe…oh, this could be quite tantalizing indeed.

He won’t do it, though.

Unless I trick him into a history lesson.

Ezra

Holden is the kind of dude who wears top hats and great coats while teaching astrophysics to brainiacs. Weird, right? But I gotta respect that level of commitment. And I respect him.

Sadly, Holden doesn’t feel the same way about me.

I guess I can’t blame him. Cranking his gears has been a highlight of my stint in geek land. I’ve never seen anyone get riled about yogurt like him. He makes me laugh. And think. And he makes me want things I’d never thought possible.

So yeah, I’ll take that history lesson. If it leads to something more, I’m in.

Love and History is a Bi-awakening geek/jock romance featuring a messy law student, a picky professor, and a lesson neither will forget!

I loved everything about this book, from Lane Hayes’ wonderful writing style to the fabulous characters and storylines to the perfectly cast narrator who brings it all to life from the pages to your ears. I have not had the pleasure to listen to the earlier books in the series and felt this book stood perfectly on its own, my only thoughts are why did it take me so long to find this series and I am looking forward to checking out the other books soon. This book is Holden and Ezra’s story and wow, what a story it is, an “opposites attract” romance with plenty of laugh out loud moments and witty dialogue that is brilliant. Holden, a science and history geek, a professor who teaches science who does historical reenactments. He is also has a way with words, which makes him even geekier, and yes, it is possible to be even geekier. His new housemate really frustrated Holden, the man has no boundaries and infuriates him, eats his food, prances around half naked, though not a hardship on the eyes, and really gets under his skin. Ezra, a law student and jock, likes his housemate, while he knows Holden does not feel the same, he is determined to change his feelings about him and he has a plan to do so, and yes, taunting him was part of that plan. I loved how everything played out in this wonderfully plotted and fast-paced story, it is the type of story that puts a smile on your face and keeps it there the entire book. There is a perfect balance of drama, humor, heartfelt emotions and some steamy romance. Lane Hays, thank you for another wonderful story, the laughs and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the wonderful narration, Alexander Cendese’s talent truly shines and he does an amazing job with these characters, going each their own voice, humanizing them with their personality and their emotions and has you feeling every single one. His portrayal of each character is spot on, from goofball Ezra to the quirky nerd, Holden, and is fabulous at performing the roles of the secondary characters too. He sets the perfect tone for the story, handles the witty dialogue with ease and land the humor effortlessly. Cendese is an entertaining storyteller and a versatile voice artist, his narration enhances an already brilliant story to another level. Thank you for another exceptional listen.

Fabulous Story & Listen🎧 Delightfully Enjoyable!

5 Stars!

Ezra and Holden couldn't have been more different from each other, a cocky law student and a science and history geek and astrophysics professor, who happen to be roommates. Ezra usually gets on Holden's nerves, but now Ezra might be the only one who could help Holden with his historic reenactment event, and maybe Holden could've been wrong about Ezra.

Both Ezra and Holden were so likable and I loved listening to Holden start seeing Ezra in a different light as they get to know each other better and explore the scorching chemistry between them. The renaissance fair setting was too much fun. Just thinking of Ezra parading as King Edward had me in stitches, LOL. 

Alexander Cendese did a great job with the narration, bringing Ezra, Holden, and the rest of the secondary characters to life with his fantastic performance.

Overall, this was an amazing addition to the series! A fun, hot, low-angst story with a swoon-worthy epilogue that you don't want to miss! Highly recommendable!

Loved it!

A great performance coupled with a solid story, Love and History was an enjoyable listen.
There were familiar beats of the story but the charming characters meant I was sucked into the story.
I haven't read/listened to all of this series but each are written in a way that you can enjoy them out of order.
The end acted as a kind of epilogue for the entire series and there was a rough tie in to the Better Than series, which was sweet

Very enjoyable

Alexander's narration has really brought these characters to life! I really enjoyed the book when I read it but with the voice's that Alexander lends to the characters, they make me smile and bring out the personalities and emotions so well! I can't believe this is the first in the series I've listened to! Need to go back and binge the series from the start.
I have loved this series from the start and it just personifies what the author gives readers throughout - entertainment, opposites attract, quirky characters and an enjoyable romance.
Holland is the epitome of quirky with his PhD is astrophysics and microbiology whilst also taking part in the local Historical Reenactment Society and casually wearing cloaks and ruffles for the everyday. His opposite is his annoying housemate, Ezra. Soon to be lawyer, lacrosse player and generally positive guy who just happens to enjoy annoying Holland, a tiny bit. Their banter back and forth to start with is funny, clearly irking Holland whilst Ezra enjoys himself. It's not until Holland needs help with his HRS and Ezra is the perfect candidate that they spend more time together and Ezra's attraction comes to light.
It's such a sweet and equally heated development between the two, even with the agreement that it won't be anything more. From the start you can tell they share something special and it's heartwarming as they share painful moments from their past, wants for the future etc. We have a little interaction with everyone from the series and it's so good to catch up with them and see how far and we'll everyone has done. Even with them all moving on with other people, the Script Club still come back together.
So sad to see the end of this wonderful series but Lane has done it justice with another great romance with brilliant MCs.

Narration makes everything even better!

The sixth book in the Script Club series, Love and History, can be read as a standalone, but it is so much better if read in order of the series. Characters from previous books make an appearance and we get to see how their happy ever afters are progressing.

Ezra and Holden’s relationship starts off with sparks - both men at odds with each other. But below the surface, what looks like annoyance is actually attraction. Cue a series of hijinks which leads to passion and romance and changes the course of both men’s lives. I adored the quirky Holden and hilarious Ezra.

The audiobook was narrated by Alexander Cendese who did a great job narrating this entire series. Alexander performed this book wonderfully. The audiobook production was well done.

Love It!
