About this listen

It’s never too late for love in this short, sweet novella - an audio-first nod to a beloved rom-com!

After getting unceremoniously dumped by his boyfriend, the last thing Cooper Evans wants is to return to his hometown of Big Rock, Montana, to be in his best friend’s wedding. But he agreed to be her bridesmate (her male maid of honor), and a promise is a promise. What he didn’t expect is to run into his high school crush, who’s out of the closet and a smoking hot cop to boot.

Will Baker is just as dreamy as he was when he broke Cooper’s heart all those years ago - and it turns out he’s in the wedding party, too. Will Cooper make it through the ceremony with his heart unscathed, or will he risk it all for a second chance at love?

NY writer Cooper Evans has never gotten over his high school crush on Will Baker. When he returns to his hometown of Big Rock, MT for his best friend’s wedding, Cooper finds himself sharing the ‘bridemates’ duties with Will. While Cooper feels ditzy and wrong-footed in the face of Will’s cool calm, both men have a lot of processing to do. This short second-chances novella was super cute, fun, and sweet with two decent MCs, a town of supportive characters, and a really satisfying HEA. As always, Teddy Hamilton knocks the audio narration out of the park.

A lovely feel-good mm romance novella!

in love with Teddy's voice he makes the characters feel so real obviously from the fantastic writing by Sydney. this was wholesome and sweet and everything I needed right now. making you believe that love can last all these years without even being together. highly recommend Sydney and narration by Teddy.

in love

I loved this story, the characters and the home town setting. It was funny, sweet, had just the right amount of drama, and finished with the most beautiful HEA.
A perfect short read, or listen, to fill in a lazy afternoon.

I like liked Cooper and Will, and cast of friends and relatives in Little Rock, Montana. HEA is a long time coming but I love you's bit rushed at end.
Always love Teddy Hamilton's narration.

Cute concept but very little story or substance. Teddy has a nice voice quality but always sounds a bit overly laidback.

Very average

This was really sweet and cute. I loved the characters, second chance romance is my favorite trope. I really liked it and I wish it was longer. The narrator was brilliant.

sweet!

A 10 year gap, second chance vibe short story (1h40m) audiobook, narrated by Teddy Hamilton who played Cooper. I realllllly wish it was duel narrated with Will’s POV but eh it wasn’t bad 🙃

This story is great. the push and pull never ceases to grab me. I love Teddy's work, its amazing and really brings these characters personalities through. I'm really enjoying the M/M stories. The HEA is always hard fought for. 10/10 on this one.

Excellent story

Given it's a short story, I wasn't expecting much but I find the central premise a little worrying. It seems like a personal fantasy and outside of that context the characters come across as shallow.

Shallow and indulgent
