About this listen
It’s not a real case, he’s not my boyfriend, and we aren’t partners. Three lies I told myself for survival.
After ten months of shamefully stalking and showing up randomly on Tallus’s doorstep at midnight (for reasons), the sinfully hot records clerk decided he’d had enough of my games.
In fact, he went out of his way to bring me the most ridiculous case (it was not a case) on the planet as an excuse to push me over the line (he wanted a date). Our arrangement (hooking up) didn’t suit him any longer.
Could I say no? Of course not (this was Tallus).
Five days, I told him. Five days to prove his silly theory, then we were done.
Little did I know, Tallus had a deadline of his own.
Investigating a mind-controlling-murdering psychic was hard enough (because it was not a thing), but resisting Tallus’s charm was the real challenge.
It turned out, I was wrong about a few things.
The case might be a case after all.
Tallus had potential as a partner.
And after all was said and done…I wasn’t sure I could let him go.

I seriously can't get enough of this author's writing, such dept of quality. With all of
the strong characters and the astonishing case that shouldn't be a case this is one roller coaster of a fab story.
In book 2 of Shadowy Solutions Tallus is still restless, he is desperate for more detective
work but Diem is just not calling him for help. Well that won't do, so when his friend announces that he is going to see a Psychic his hackles rise and off he goes digging. The deeper he looks the more he is sure that something is very wrong, sane people would never do those things...
Diem on the other hand is still battling his fears and is trying to keep his unhealthy cravings away from Tallus, but sitting outside his place day and night isn't wrong is it? So when he gets sucked into the case that is surely not a case lines become blurry again...
I really enjoyed the dysfunctional relationship between these 2 very different men and the case that turned out to be so unbelievable by the end, so good.
What A Case!!!

Nick J Russo always gives an outstanding performance from start to finish without missing a beat and I am once again so appreciative of his skills. He transported me into the world of Tallus and Diem and I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen next for these two wonderful men.
Loved it 🥰

This pair is amusing. Tallus talks so much he forgets to listen, and Diem struggles to speak with anything other than single words. And you might wonder why Tallus shows Diem any interest, the man has more problems than most, but you can see what he sees. A man deserving of love and care.
Their not-partnership solving cases is beyond chaotic and wild. Especially when it involves possible mind control. Okay probably not mind control. Maybe mind control-ish. Definitely something hinky.
Poor Diem - he had no idea how much Tallus would upend his life, but I don’t think he really minds in the end!
The Audiobook performed by Nick J. Russo really brings these two to life. You get all of Diem’s grunts and Tallus’ liveliness in all its glory.
Definitely, maybe, not mind control

Nicky James has a wonderful writing style and I was once again captivated by the story very quickly. The story is written in the first person perspective, alternately from the perspective of Diem and Tallus, so that you get to know them both even better.
My heart broke for Diem the more I learned about him and his past. Diem is still the one who doesn't communicate very much and seems grumpy.
I really liked Diem and every now and then you get heartbreaking moments in flashbacks. Tallus is exactly the opposite. He is personable, open and talkative and he knows how to get along with Diem. Every now and then I had to smile at the way the two of them interacted with each other.
This time Tallus asks Diem for help because he has discovered something and comes up with an unusual theory. Since Diem Tallus can't refuse anything, they begin to investigate. However, it takes time for them to make progress with their case. The case is unusual but interesting, with surprising twists that cannot be predicted. The two also become closer. The combination of the case and the development of the relationship or non-relationship between the two captivated me from start to finish. The audio book entertained me very well, was exciting and had fantastic characters.
Nick J. Russo did a brilliant job as always. He nailed Diem with deep tones perfectly, as well as Tallus, who always seems cheerful and fun. The narrator also portrayed the emotions very well and brought the story to life.
I'm looking forward to read more about Diem and Tallus. Highly recommend!
Diem and Tallus are back!
