About this listen

I thought falling in love with my best friend would be the biggest shock of my life. I couldn’t have been more wrong….

Coming back home with my tail between my legs after a bitter divorce and a failed business venture isn’t exactly the life I’d envisioned for myself.

At least there’s Bennett. Strong and steady as always, even if there is a simmering anger in him that wasn’t there when we were boys.

When that anger finally boils over, I’m braced for a fight, but what I get instead…is a kiss.

A kiss that changes everything.

But a surprise visit threatens the new life Bennett and I are beginning to build together. Now I’m faced with an impossible choice: Return to the safe, predictable life I’d always planned on with my ex-wife….

Or take a chance on the unexpected love of a lifetime.

* * *

My Best Friend’s Secret is a friends-to-lovers, bi-awakening romance set in the cozy little town of Fairlake. And while Adam and Bennett will have cameos in future stories, each book in this series can be listened to as a standalone.

Mixed feelings

This story was generally fine enough- though the ending was very fairytale and unlikely.
However, it really needed two narrators. Michael Dean had to keep switching between two males of a similar age and it was often hard to distinguish which one was talking. So his voice was Ok but it became confusing.

Story of Bennett and Adam

This is a best friends to lovers romance, featuring Adam and Bennett, and is the first book in the Men of Fairlake series.

Adam returns to Fairlake after his marriage was all but over and he wanted to start his life again back in his hometown. He had been distant from his BFF the last couple of years so was hesitant to reach out when returned, Bennett was having none of that and pushed his way into Adam’s life again. What Adam didn’t know, was Bennett had a secret, that he had had a crush on Adam since they were sixteen.

One night out with Bennett’s queer friends at the local gay club has things escalating, and when an abutment gets heated, Bennett ends up kissing Adam. Zing - bi awakening, woo hoo!!!!

This series has been on my TBR for a while, I’m glad I finally jumped into it. It was a beautiful read, low angst, some spice, great character development and supportive secondary characters. Everything is set up for the other books, so very keen to read book two.

Michael Dean also does a great job on the narration of the audiobook, I’ve listened to so many of his narrations now that his voice is super comforting, love his performances.

Things to expect in this MM romance are:
Best friends to lovers
Long term crush
Bi-awakening
First times
Lots of cuddles time
Supportive parents
HEA

A lovely romantic tale

A low angst happy story of old friends becoming lovers and then to husbands. Lovely writing from Romeo as usual and the narration of Michael is magnificent yet again. An easy to listen quality romance.
