About this listen

My entire life has been one steady plan after another.

Go to college. Get married. Have a successful career.

More than a decade goes by, and my entire world is rocked in more ways than one. Everything I thought I knew is ripped from under me in one fell swoop.

Then I meet him: the enticing man behind the camera with the boyish grin and charismatic energy who makes me question everything. He was only supposed to be a means to an end. But what I got was so much more.

Vaughn, 33, is made redundant on the day he discovers his wife, Blair, is having an affair. Struggling to find work, Vaughn spots an article about 23 yo Camden, who is making good money online and Vaughn does two things: he subscribes to Camden’s Only Fans account to learn from him and he opens his own. Vaughn has always considered himself straight but he is intrigued and impressed by Camden’s content. Soon Camden offers to mentor Vaughn and the two start to collaborate but things get complicated.

The Hidden Affairs trilogy showcases three sex-worker / college students and the three older men they fall for. This hit me just right! I enjoyed Camden’s light-hearted needling of grumpy, buttoned-up Vaughn and their steamy solo, and collaborative, encounters—the sex scenes were really well-written. As well as Vaughn’s bisexual awakening, there were also two other subplots that provided some welcome suspense. I’ve seen all the story elements plenty of times in other novels but I loved the way they were packaged up here in a risqué / forbidden desires way. 🎧 Aiden Snow (as Vaughn) and Iggy Toma (as Camden) are two of my very favourite voice actors and they both did a great job here.

Loved the suspense, the drama, and the steam! 🔥

Straight guy in the middle of divorce meets hot young porn star.......what could go wrong, right? Jealous, conniving ex, creepy sex offender stalker, mistrustful snarky roomies ; the list goes on. Great story and engaging characters. A good read.

Aiden Snow is one of my favourite narrators so I am always looking out for more books his narrating (highly recommend books by A.E.Via if your interested in his work); he was great here as usual, but unfortunately I found Iggy Toma so scratchy and hard to listen to. The writing also felt very immature in the portrayal of what the characters did in their time together, so couldn’t finish listening here, which is not something that happens often.

This is an opposites attract romance, featuring Vaughn Drewitt and Camden Bain, and is the first book in this series. I absolutely love the narrators, Aiden Snow and Iggy Toma can do no wrong.

Vaughn is a serious guy, but In one day, his life kind of imploded, he loses his job and then comes home early to find his wife in bed with another man.

Camden is a college student and is a cam boy in order to pay for his tuition and is an anything goes kind of person.

Vaughn comes across an article about cam boys and is directed to Camden’s OF page. After thoroughly investigating Camden’s page, on a whim, Vaughn sets up his own OF page to see if he can make money because he can’t find a new job. He reaches out to Camden to get some advice and they end up working together. Things progress from there, wink, lots of firsts and lots of filming.

The book is quite funny in parts, love a good cam boy book. Performance on the audiobook were perfection. Highly recommend any book of Ashley James.

Tropes include:
MM romance
Grump / Sunshine
Slight age gap
Cam boy firsts
Bi-awakening
Praise / good boy

Alright this started out so good but then it just kinda unraveled in so many ways that annoyed me that the narrator’s were the only thing keeping me going. My biggest issues were the blackmail and homophobia.

I got this because of the narrator’s and they didn’t disappoint. I really enjoyed listening to them. I’ll have to find some other stories with their voices as well.

Good beginning….

I liked the chemistry between the too, but there was no depth to their character, no connection to understanding them and why they weee the way they were.
If you want an easy listen with lots of good spice, then go for it.

Very spicy 🔥

Narration decent. Content? Poor. Two dimensional characters, large parts of the action dropped, ridiculous. Sadly focuses too heavily on sex scenes, and repetitive ones at that. When will authors of gay romance etc, realise we want good solid stories with gay characters in the leads?

Garbage
