I'd never read/listened to any Susan Hawke books before, but I've got to say this collection is wonderful. The MCs are all extremely likeable & their storylines deal with some serious/important themes sensitively whilst still managing to have a sense of humour.

Michael Dean's narration is on point, as always; really bringing the characters to life. Highly recommended!

So entertaining! 😊

This is a great bundle of romance novels from an author I came to know through her shifter romances. Her handling of contemporary non-shifter characters is equally masterful. My particular favorites are the first and third books, How not to Blend and How not to Sin. I adore any book that involves a barista/coffeshop and when you combine that with a great drag queen I'm sold. Sin deals with homophobia in the church and its effect on the clergy and I was completely drawn in and felt so sad for the characters struggling to live their authentic lives and worship in spite of that. Michael Dean gives his usual flawless performance. Every character is distinct, which is incredibly difficult in a bundle where listeners tend to binge, and his ability to hot all emotional colors is fantastic.

A great bundle and deal

🔥🔥🔥 Heat Level: 3.5 to 4
🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧 Narration: all 5!!!


Book 1:
Such wonderful characters! A story of love, sass, and family!!!
I really enjoyed this book. It is full to the brim of such wonderful and dynamic characters. I loved the whole lot of them!

The story follows widower Corbin, his enby son, Gray and sassy and awesome southerner Andy. I found this story very dynamic and easy to read. The sass and humor in this book is the next level! All the characters blend so well together. Corbin and Andy’s love story starts as fake-boyfriends and evolves over a dramatic and challenging time to become a ‘blended’ family full of love and acceptance.

This story was a great start to Susan’s new series and a wonderful read. I have to say the secondary characters are just as awesome as the main ones and I have to give a shout out to the awesomeness that is Gam-gam!

Book 2:
Such a great novella! Fantastic and unique performance by Michael. If you like Drag Queens falling in love then this is for you!!

Book 3:
I think this ones my fav! I loved Susan approach to an openly bisexual reverend! She's taken great care to craft this story and it shows in these great characters and how they face the hatred, bigotry, and homophobia poising their town, Gabe's church, and their lives.

Gabe happens to be bisexual and happens to be a pastor. He finds himself hired as a poster boy for inclusivity in the LGBTQ community of his small-town but is 'encouraged' not to act on his bisexuality or he may no longer be the pastor. After this ridiculous shock, an adorable kismet of events happens and Gabe finds himself quickly falling for Seth. Seth's a fun and cheeky yoga teacher and Gabe and Seth are great together! I loved their banter, sexy times, and strength and they stand together to face the new bigotry that has risen in town.

I really enjoyed seeing familiar faces around town and learning more about the other awesome characters. I'm loving this series and look forward to many more stories in the Lovestrong series!

As ever Micheal's narration is perfection!! Brilliant dialects, characterizations, and story flow. Although I must his voice for Larry is a bit painful to listen to. It's so different from all other voices I've heard Micheal bring to life that I can't imagine how he managed such a deep throaty voice without hurting himself. I'm interested to see if he kept up this voice for the entirety of Larry's story, as I think that would be extraordinary feet!!

Book 4:
I love a bit of thrill with my romance!!

I loved Shaw and Nick and am so glad they finally got together!! I hadn’t read the opening prequel novella that started this Lovestrong series but I didn’t really feel like I was missing anything even though I need to go back and read it now! Anything for more Nick and Shaw ❤ ❤ ❤

I really enjoy thrillers and I loved that there was a little psychological suspense and stalking in this story that pushes Shaw and Nick together; FINALLY!! I feel for Shaw as he keeps receiving notes from his ‘Master’/stalker, and while I guessed early on who Master was, I was still thrilled ‘watching’ the story unfold. I would have liked a little more detail/depth into the crazy Master and why he was the way he was and why he targeted Shaw, but understand that that may not fit into these lighter stories Susan is creating in the Lovestrong Series.

I enjoyed the humor Susan injects and loves all the feelings and mushiness that happens when the angst is over and Nick and Shaw finally admit their feelings for each other. Their sexy times are off the charts hot too which never hurts 😉 I also enjoyed the somewhat prophetic dreams and look forward to seeing them come true in the next stories in this series!!

As ever Micheal’s narration is perfection!! Brilliant dialects, characterizations, and story flow. I really enjoyed seeing familiar faces around town, learning more about them and enjoyed Michael’s voices for each character and their individuality! I’m loving this series and look forward to many more Lovestrong series!

Susan and Micheal are a perfect match and this was a total swoon-worthy winner for me!!

Susan & Micheal are a perfect match!

This Is one of the best series in Gay Romance, so a bundle with the first books and the prequel together, was a wonderful treat, one that gave me the opportunity to read and re-read book after book full of amazing characters, and to witness their journey to find love and family. And guess what is even better? having said beloved characters in audio in the profesional acting voice of Mr Dean, who brought them alive for our enjoyment, with his masterful managing of emotions and actions. Loved it!

A must have...
