About this listen

Curtis Hunt has made a name for himself as a chainsaw wood carver, winning national competitions and operating a small business in Rainbow Cove, Oregon. As winter whittles away his tourist traffic, his goal is just to survive the season and try to not get lost in grief for his dead lover. It's been two years, but he's sure he'll never be over the love of a lifetime. However, his body has a certain restlessness that he doesn't quite know how to calm.

Logan Rosner knows a thing or two about restlessness. It's what drove him to Rainbow Cove to be a chef at a bar and grill run by his friends. And it's what drives him to a single sizzling encounter with the local legendary lumberjack. Both men get far more than they expected and learn that first impressions aren't always accurate....

But when Logan proposes a series of sexy lessons, Curtis must decide how much he's willing to risk. He knows he can't afford to get attached to Logan's good cooking, his easy smiles, or his caretaking, but he keeps going back for more, even as deeper emotions become involved. Soon, Curtis must decide whether to risk his heart again or risk losing Logan for good.

Contains mature themes.

The slow burn

Beautiful story. A little long winded but a great happy ending. Strong characters. Lacked spontaneity in some sense for me. But all in all a great story over a long drive.

The sun shines for Curtis

Enjoyable story of the happy sunny Logan and grumpy Curtis.

What starts out as a way of Logan getting some practise and hands on experience as a don leads to more as Curtis realises that maybe he has a second chance at happiness years after his partner died tragically.

Great age-gap romance!

A talented chef, Logan Rosner and his friends are struggling to keep their new LGBTQ cafe open in the small Oregon town of Rainbow Cove. With his preppy, youthful looks, Logan would like to be a dom, but others just don’t take him seriously until chainsaw wood carver Curtis Hunt watches Logan defend himself. Curtis is still mourning the death of his husband but he’s willing to let Logan practice being a dom on him to take the edge off. This age-gap romance is by far the most serious and steamy Annabeth Albert story I’ve listened to and I really enjoyed it. There’s a great exploration of surviving the loss of a partner and about not judging books by their covers. Marc Bachmann (as Logan) and Iggy Toma (as Curtis) narrated the audiobook well (currently free on the Audible Plus catalogue).

Will definitely listen to again.

Very hot! Great narration by both gentlemen, and loved the story line. A nice addition to the Rainbow Cove series.
