About this listen

“It’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you. Everything I do.”

On a 28-day #NoFap streak and riding the high of self-discipline, Todd Stevens is ready to spend the summer break stacking wins. No distractions. No degenerate urges. Just pure, unadulterated focus.

Then a punk from a rival school steps into his path — not to fight, but to deal.

He's got a video.
And not just any old video.
Not some low-value OnlyFans reject Todd could find on an Instagram doomscroll.
This one’s exclusive. Private. Personal.

Because the girl in the video?

Todd knows her.

“I heard that you like the bad girls. Honey, is that true?”

Curiosity cracks resolve. And with three long, empty months ahead, Todd’s monk-mode summer spirals into obsession, tangled with angst and teenage ennui. Every pixel. Every frame. Every glance toward his windowpane.

He tells himself it’s under control.
He tells himself he can stop.

But how do you break free when your worst impulses are the only thing holding you together?

A raw, unsettling coming of age story about longing, where obsession shapes the beloved in your mind — until the cracks begin to show.

Soaked in shame, obsession, and Lana Del Rey.

“They say that the world was built for two.
Only worth living if somebody is loving you.”

Note from the author: tribute. is a story inside the anthology, left on read. If you're looking for the ebook version you'll find it there, which is also on Kindle Unlimited.

It dives deep into teenage obsession, shame, and the struggle to stay in control. The writing is vivid and really captures how easily curiosity can turn into something darker. At times, the story felt uncomfortable, but that’s part of what made it powerful and honest. The narrator did a great job bringing out the emotion and tension in every scene. Overall, it’s an intense and thought-provoking listen. I would recommend it to anyone who likes gritty age stories that don’t shy away from difficult topics.

This story felt personal and hit deeper than I expected. Todd’s journey is raw and thought-provoking, even when it’s uncomfortable. I was really drawn in. The only downside was the poor audio quality, it was distracting at times.
Still, definitely worth the listen.

Honest and intense, though audio could be better

Tribute. offers a compelling and unflinching portrayal of adolescent obsession and self-discipline unravelled. Told through the lens of Todd Stevens' summer descent, the story captures the raw emotional currents of youth — shame, longing, fixation — with unsettling intimacy. The narrative voice is hauntingly evocative, steeped in cultural references and the suffocating solitude of teenage intensity. While not a light listen, it is beautifully constructed, layered with psychological nuance, and unapologetically honest. For those drawn to introspective coming-of-age fiction, this audiobook challenges and resonates in equal measure.

Tribute is raw and brutally honest in the way that explores the collision between desire, discipline, and self-destruction. I listened to this audiobook in one sitting and was completely captivated, slightly disturbed, and undeniably moved. What unfolds isn’t just a story about temptation, but about how obsession can twist love, identity, and purpose.

Dark, Hypnotic, and Uncomfortably Real

it’s a slow-burn descent into obsession, isolation, and inner conflict, all filtered through the haze of shame and longing. This isn’t a feel-good story. It’s not clean or pretty. Highly recommended
