Summary

Keep your friends close...

Construction work isn't any sort of calling for Ethan Loeb. He gets the job done, cashes his check, and spends his free time volunteering at the retirement home his elderly mother lives in. He knows he comes across as big, gruff, and grumpy, but right now, he doesn't much care. 

Until him.

...but keep your enemies in your bedroom.

Mark Weaver knows that the construction crew in charge of building a new set of luxury townhouses is more than a bit ticked off that a potential dinosaur find has derailed their tight schedule. They make it very clear that the scientists excavating the site aren't welcome.

It doesn't much matter to Mark. Preserving the past trumps new construction any day.

But when Mark's car dies too far away from the work site for him to walk with his polio-damaged legs, can he accept help from a big, burly construction worker with a secret heart of gold?

If you're looking for a sweet, angsty, and steamy enemies-to-lovers audiobook featuring a disabled nerd and a tough guy with a gooey marshmallow center, check out My Enemy Needs Me, the first audiobook in the Dig Deep series. This title, and all titles in the series, can be listened to as a stand-alone.

Really enjoyable

I really enjoyed listening to this book as Ethan and Mark meet at the dig site on opposing sides. When they get closer they have to deal with some bullying from work mates and potentially being fired while also dealing with family health problems.

The construction worker with a big heart

Ethan has a tough life, with his mother in an hospice. When his construction job is put at risk, he can’t help but fall for the enemy. Mark is not really the enemy but he sure acts like one. He is a nerd with a mean streak when hurt. He and Ethan go through a hate you but love you phase and they can be hurtful but they can also be adorable.

Excellent narration

I liked this story a lot, but I didn't quite love it. This is because I didn't believe in Ethan and Mark as a potential couple for the first few chapters. The way Ethan treats Mark isn't good (an understatement!) and the excuse of a former poor relationship is flimsy. Mark's one-time petty behaviour is more understandable. Still, things improve throughout their story as they start to stand up for each other, and their relationship solidifies.

The narration by Austin Jay is excellent. His voice is clear and steady, but he let's excitement creep in at the right moments.

I will continue to read or listen to further books in this series because I would like to know the stories of other characters that are mentioned.
