About this listen
I’d always wondered what it would be like to have a family. I just never expected to find it with five mysterious strangers who have more secrets than I could ever imagine.
Getting a scholarship to Evergreen University and majoring in premed means I need to keep my head down and focus on my studies. But campus is full of distractions…
The football god with his golden retriever charm. The tortured one with his vicious tongue. The broken boy with his determined protectiveness. The merciless billionaire with a penchant for spoiling me. And the genius professor with his brilliant mind.
They make me feel like I belong for the first time since my parents were murdered. And when they touch me, my whole world sparks to flame.
But they have enemies. Those who would give anything to harm what they hold dear. And while they’ll do whatever it takes to keep me safe, sometimes falling in love will put you right in the line of fire…

The narrator lineup was *chef's kiss* including some of my all time favourite narrators and a couple new ones for me (which are now also favourites 🤭). I was kicking my feet and giggling every other chapter.
The MMC's in this book were all SO different but all equally enticing, I'm not ashamed to say I loved them all uniquely. I was swooning the minute Knox was introduced and don't get me started about the mouth on Cillian 🥵.. however, don't ask me to pick a favourite right now because I simply cannot 😭. Our FMC Hayden is down to earth and strong willed, I LOVE her.
I am absolutely hooked, I can't wait to continue this series!
THE BEST NARRATOR LINE UP EVER!!

Hayden has been in foster care since she was eleven after her parents were murdered. She is now heading off to college on a scholarship to eventually become a doctor. On day one she bumps into Knox and they immediately have a connection, Knox just happens to also have four other brothers (not all blood related) that he has a special bond with and that Hayden is also drawn to... for reasons... and the story goes from there.
My second Buddy read/listen of the year and my first Tessa Hale book. It has been a hot minute since I've read a poly/why choose book of any kind, but I felt that dynamic really worked in this paranormal/fantasy/supernatural setting as it didn't feel forced because there is a mates aspect woven in. This is very insta-lusty but again I can live with that here because of the overall premise of the story.
Are there aspects of this book that follow the typical why choose formula within the story and dynamics between all the characters, and therefore felt a tad predictable to me? Yes. We're parts a little tropey? Also yes. But I had such a fun time listening to this that I don't care. It was a quick, entertaining listen that hooked me from the very start and kept my interest throughout, it had some humour, a bit of mystery, five protective and caring heroes who I want to know more about and a sprinkling of spice that was well written and didn't overshadow the story which I've found can happen in other books I've read that are why choose. This is book one of three so does end on a cliffhanger.
The narrator line-up is INCREDIBLE! This was my first listen by Vanessa Moyen and it won't be my last. Here is a list of who voices each character -
Hayden (Vanessa)
Knox (Teddy)
Maddox (Connor)
Cael (Joe)
Easton (Jacob)
Cillian (Jason)
The audiobook was great, I loved that each character was voiced by a different narrator especially given the talent on that list above. My only wish is that it had been recoded in Duet Style as having each narrator voice their characters no matter who's chapter it was would have been so immersive. That and the predictability is the only reason this didn't reach a five star read for me though as I had a great time and am looking forward to buddy reading the rest in this 3 book series. 🌶🌶🌶
