About this listen
Zane Holden hasn't had the easiest go of things. His childhood was rough, and adulthood hasn't been a walk in the park, either. The only good thing in his life would be Stonewall Investigations, an investigative company he found to work primarily with the LGBTQ community. Things were okay, and Zane was finally healing from a personal tragedy, but the reemergence of a serial killer turns his world upside down.
Lorenzo De Luca is a cocky defense attorney dripping in Italian charm. He's well known as one of the best lawyers in New York City, a title he worked hard to achieve. When he picks up a difficult case, he finds that he needs extra help. This leads him to Stonewall, where he meets Zane for the first time and instantly feels himself falling for the mysterious and stone-cut detective.
The two men have their own hangups to work through, but both men are having a hard time denying the connection between them, even though they're trying. When fate insists on pushing them together, Zane and Enzo give in and start exploring their feelings. They'll need to balance their budding relationship with the stress of Enzo's case, which takes them both on a twisting journey toward the truth, all while a bigger threat looms on the horizon.
Contains mature themes.

Unlike a other novels of this type that I've read this has a strong story line. There is a good balance between romance, drama, the detective narrative and the inevitable bedroom scenes.
It is romantic, touching and mostly believable. Just occasionally you see the artifice poking through.
Good story

I'm not usually interested too much in detective type stories, but the author did a great job of balancing the mystery and the relationship. An insta love story with a good amount of humour. I didn't like how abruptly it ended, though. I felt the last chapter of 2 deserved a bit more exploration. The characters were clear and well defined and easy to love.
Easy to listen, loveable characters

I think this is the first book related to Stonewall Investigations. I actually started with another series based in Blue Creek, it was a great read but I had to make my way back to the beginning. I’ve never really read mystery books, but I came across Max Walker because he is writing one of the books in the upcoming FU2 series. And I’m so glad for it, I’m loving finding a new author to me and I’m loving the mystery romance books.
Holy moly, firstly, the Italian lessons, I think a lot more people would be fluent if the lessons were like that. Hubba hubba or should I say mamma mia.
This is a slow burn and suspenseful. It really made you wonder who the heck did it and the build up towards the end was brilliant. Won’t spoil it for you. Give it a go.
The narration was perfetto! Greg Boudreaux is a very talented narrator. Loving the accents he can do.
Ps. Enzo’s mum sounds like a gem!

But the story is just so empty for the actual crime and detective work story; it’s almost all “he’s perfect”, “he’s so amazing”, “I yearn for him”, “he completes me”, which is great for a bit but gets very tiring very quickly.
