About this listen

Singing about love is one thing. Finding it is another.

Teague Martell has been License to Game's bassist for over a decade, and he's played Casanova for just as long, sleeping with almost everyone in his path. But unbeknownst to even his bandmates, it's always felt like going through the motions.

His best friend and LtG drummer Christian Vogel has secrets of his own. Like that he's had a crush on Teague for as long as he's had crushes. And while LtG's lead singer may have made his solo plans public and sent the band into a tailspin, Christian's got a side gig as well - one he's been keeping under wraps.

A nude photoshoot for a charity calendar has Teague seeing Christian in a different light - suddenly he knows what it is to want. But disagreements about the future of the band could impact their future as a couple. Christian and Teague have to decide whether their differences of opinion create a sweet harmony or if there's too much discord in the duet they're finally playing.

Contains mature themes.

Teague Martell, bass player for world-famous boy band, License to Game, is notorious for his bisexual bedroom tally, but behind the façade, Teague actually finds sex completely unfulfilling—he’s never met anyone he’s actually been sexually attracted to. Meanwhile, his best friend, LtG’s quiet drummer, Christian Vogel, has been attracted to Teague for years but has always resigned himself to his feelings being unrequited. However, during a nude photo shoot, Teague finds himself attracted to Christian sexually for the very first time, but things are complicated by the fact that the lead singer has announced his intention to pursue a solo career, which might spell the end of the band.

I loved the premise of this a lot, especially the exploration of Teague’s demisexuality and the world’s expectations on him as a rock star and as a big, tall guy. Unfortunately, the execution of the story left me a bit flat. I was looking forward to more band interaction and drama, more of the celebrity lifestyle, and some performances, but the story mostly focused Teague and Christian’s tentative, mostly chaste relationship. And apart from a very quick bonus scene at the end, their interactions lacked chemistry, passion, or any detail—almost fade-to-black. I liked the two main characters, they were decent guys, but as a romance this lacked spark. 🎧 Chris Chambers (as Teague) and John Solo ( as Christian) were their usual excellent selves, I love them both.

Great narrators but story left me flat!
