About this listen

How far would you go to protect the one you love?

Allowing a man into his life would be one distraction too many for security consultant Lee Adams, especially when the ink’s still wet on the career-defining deal he’s just signed with a high-profile property tycoon.

Dominic Russell can’t help but notice the out of place, moodily good looking guy in the sharp, corporate suit who’s sheltering from the rain in the radical bookshop where he works. Just like he can’t help flirting with him.

With strands of bright dye running through Dominic’s dark hair, and his rainbow wristbands, Lee tells himself there’s nothing the two of them could have in common. Yet when Dominic asks him to a campaign meeting to save an iconic LGBTQ venue from being bulldozed out of existence, Lee says yes when everything tells him he should be saying no.

Against the background of Lee and Dominic’s unlikely love story, the Save Charlie campaign is falling apart. Nobody’s interested and nobody cares. When a stranger with vision, passion, and conviction arrives on the scene he’s the shot in the arm the campaign needs, and he’s come with a full syringe.

But something about Charlie’s savior doesn’t add up. Lee’s determined to find out what, and why.

As the disturbing, sinister truth is unearthed, it’s not only Lee and Dominic’s future together that’s in danger, it’s their very lives.

Radical Hearts is a tense, grip the edge of your seat opposites attract romantic suspense novel. No cliff hangers, guaranteed.

Lee darts into a bookshop with a cafe upstairs to get out of the rain. He never expected that small nondescript action to change his life.

The server of his coffee was cute with black hair and dyed tips. As colourful as the man sporting the do. Flirty smiles abound round a brief conversation.

A conversation that neither Lee nor Dominic could forget, so it was hardly surprising that Lee ended up back there. Lee and Dominic hit it off and become a couple. Each one complimenting the other.

Trials and tribulations come and go, culminating in what could have been an horrific tragedy. Will love win out in the end......?

I really enjoyed this audiobook. A.E.Ryecart draws her characters particularly well. If I met them on the street I’d know them. Even the subsidiary and minor characters have a depth to them. I loved the narration which suited the characters and made them distinguishable one from another. The story starts simply with boy meets boy but soon an undercurrent is detectable and the story enfolds into a family drama and a ‘who’s going to do what?’ which keeps you gripped to the end. I highly recommend this story.

Great story with a twist.

The King's Head, in it's heyday a Mecca for the local LGBTQ+ youth .
A place of fun , of belonging, of coming of age , but today it's a derelict building that lies at the centre of this story. We have Dom, who loved the place in his youth , but only remembers the bitter end , his father, a big time developer, whom he hates. Then there is Lee, who is into security, but meets and falls for Dom and gets sucked into the campaign to save the King's Head. Together with Tiger and Jezz and so many more side characters this story weaves it's tentacles around everyone with some shocking results.

This is a great story with some quirky and some sinister characters , all brought to life by the brilliant narrator Dan Calley. Thoroughly enjoyable.

The sins of fathers...

The story is always full stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook. I can't listen to an audiobook without knowing the book, that's not possible for me.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

as good as the ebook

This story has everything to keep me interested. There is a good flow from Dom and Lee’s meeting to the drama surrounding the mysterious Jez characters. The balance between the gentle love story of Dom and Lee finding each other, whilst still dealing with aggravating exes worked extremely well with the suspense angle.
As always Dan’s narration is excellent. I love the way he gives a shine to a character just with the tone and accent he chooses.

What a journey
