Summary

Curtis "Launchpad" Larkin's career as an astronaut has had its share of ups and downs.

Alternately lauded as the single-handed savior of NASA and condemned as a reckless, hot-headed bully, Curt has been through the wringer of public opinion and come out on top. When he embarks on his final mission with NASA, Curt figures there's no curveball that life has left to throw him.

But when the role of spacecraft communicator is passed to a young engineer back in Houston who he's never met, Curt's mission takes on a new trajectory.

Patrick Harte's life is turned upside down when he's called to fill in at mission control, working directly under his hero, Curtis Larkin.

Falling for Curt is just a small step for Patrick - but it's one giant leap to think that the astronaut could ever return his feelings.

After Curt connects with Patrick from worlds away, he can't imagine life on earth without the other man...Despite the fact that he's never laid eyes on Patrick. And their problems won't stop once he's cleared for landing.

The bad-boy astronaut is no stranger to controversy - but will the genuine and soft-spoken man of his dreams be able to keep up with the trouble Curt seems to stir everywhere he goes?

So, so good

This had me hooked straight away, drawn in, once again by the awesome narration. Greg Tremblay/Boudreaux is an absolute master at bringing a book to life.

I wouldn't have thought a romance blooming over the airwaves from Earth to a space shuttle could actually work, but it did and it did it in style. I found a smile on my face most of the time whilst listening to this book. I found the space aspect of this fascinating, the backwards and forwards of Curtis' turbulent life intriguing and the interactions between Patrick & Curtis over the coms adorable. In fact there wasn't anything about this book that I didn't love and it was all brought together by the incredible narration.

I will definitely be listening to this again, this is a keeper.

Nice romance but a tad too slow

This is a pretty nice slow romance, with likable characters and quite some sweetness. I don't mind slow burn, but tbh I found this a bit too slow. Still enjoyable though, and of course good narration by Greg Tremblay. There was a bit too much callousness with regard to drinking for a bit, but that was more or less set to rights at the end.
