About this listen

When a CPA is forced to hire help for tax season, she resents the presence of her brash, young intern. The intern only wants to complete the internship so she can chase her dream job in DC. Will the CPA's past and the intern's future add up to something greater than the sum of their escalating attraction?

Hmmm

Close to Home’s story has two points of interest: coming out and romance. A book with more than romance as a theme is always welcome in my brain.

The closeted character’s inner musings were deep and engaging. I can imagine a reader in the same frame of mind could probably find some solace in the similarities in circumstances. Internalised homophobia was rife and quite exasperating to read but I understand it’s part of the process…

The romance part was not quite it for me. How the main characters initially got together was too serendipitous. It doesn’t hold water in my lowly opinion. All in all though, it was an ok read.
