About this listen

One disaster bi single dad. One sexy plumber on a house call. One hot-as-hell romance.

Rhys

If I was a hot mess before becoming a single dad, my life’s pretty much an on-fire garbage can now. Okay, maybe that’s a tad melodramatic—my bestie/baby momma/ex-girlfriend is still awesome, currently in the throuple of her dreams. And my kiddo Sammy’s amazing, albeit exhausting. I’m the one who’s too intense and rambling, too obsessed with random trivia, too liable to set dinner on fire. Essentially, too much for any relationship.

However, when a hottie plumber drops by to fix our toilet—thanks, Sammy—and gives me his number? My luck might just be turning around.

Cole

After my dad moved to a retirement community, he left me with the big, old house I grew up in and a whole lot of loneliness. I thought by now I’d be settled down, but no one’s looking for the guy who likes long hikes with his dog, stargazing, and fixing shit around the house. They want fun, entertaining, flashy—not me.

Except when I give Rhys my private line for an emergency house call, I show up for the job to discover it’s a date. It seems like I might’ve met the one man on earth who’s just as interested as I am—if only we can find the guts to admit it.

I absolutely adored Cole and Rhys. Their first date was memorable - suffice to say, it was awkward but funny. These two were all kinds of cute and the little Sammy took the cuteness to a whole new level.

Narrator’s performance was fantastic.

The author was new to me, so I had an open mind; I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this short, witty romance.

We meet Rhys and Cole and Rhys's sweet son Sammy. Great side characters, including Coles's disabled dad. Well-written everyday life experiences. I enjoyed it a lot.

Dylan Rockwell is a new narrator to me, but he was a pleasure to listen to. He was clean and concise. I sped this narration up to 1.20 on Audible, which is usual for me.

The meet cute was really funny and endeared me to both protagonists right away. And their first date made me love them even more. I was really rooting for their happily ever after.
Rhys was a bit chaotic, rambled when he was nervous and was always told that he is "too much " by everyone in his life except his best friends.
Cole just wanted a simple and quiet life and was always told that he is boring.
Both men had a lot of insecurities but they helped each other grow and realize that they were worth the best. It was beautiful to read.
The two of them were absolutely adorable together. I was honestly smiling the whole time I was reading this book. They just warmed my heart and made me happy.
And my God their chemistry was explosive!
The found family theme in the book was also wonderful.
If you are in the mood for a sweet, no angst romance that will definitely melt your heart I highly highly recommend "Sweat connection ".
The narrator was amazing, I really loved how he voiced the characters. He brought this amazing book to life.

I loved it! So sweet!

I’m always game to try a new author, and Katherine was new to me. I hadn’t, to the best of my knowledge, listened to a book narrated by Dylan Rockwell. I’ll start with his narration – he did well. Just…it felt a little over-the-top at times. He put a lot of emphasis on the words. I encourage readers to listen to the sample to be sure that narration style suits them. Eventually I sank into it and was okay.

The story was cute – single dad needs a plumber to help and – cue music – they wind up together. I needed some low-angst loving and this story gave me that. I have to say, I adored Sammy the toddler. Secondary characters including Rhys’s ex and Cole’s dad rounded out a great story. Can’t wait to listen to the next one.

Rhys has an adorable little son who made Rhys have to call a plumber. That's how he met Cole. I thought their getting to know each other and their first date was pretty sweet.
The author has a wonderful writing style because I could immediately empathize with the protagonists. She has described the family's everyday life in a wonderfully realistic way.
Rhys and Cole are very different, but both have some insecurities. I loved how their relationship developed and how they supported each other to bring out the best in each other.
Overall, Rhys and Cole are adorable together and they have explosive chemistry! What I also liked were the side characters.
If you're in the mood for an angst-free romance with a single dad, an emergency plumber and a cute toddler, this is the book for you.

The narrator, Dylan Rockwell, was new to me and he basically did a good job bringing the story to life. However, I would have liked him to give the characters a bit more individuality. Then I would have found it easier to distinguish which character he was speaking. Nevertheless, he conveyed the emotions and insecurities well.
