About this listen
Everyone admires Michael Lamont for being a nurse, but his part-time work as a gay sex surrogate not only raises eyebrows, it's cost him relationships. Michael is small, beautiful, and dedicated to working with people who need him. But what he really wants is a love of his own. He spends most of his time reading science fiction, especially books written by his favorite author and long-time crush, the mysteriously reclusive J.C. Guise.
James Gallway's life is slowly but inexorably sliding downhill. He wrote a best-selling science fiction novel at the tender age of 18, while bedridden with complications of polio. But by 28, he's lost his inspiration and his will to live. His sales from his J.C. Guise books have been in decline for years. Wheelchair bound, James has isolated himself, convinced he is unlovable. When he is forced to do a book signing and meets Michael Lamont, he can't believe a guy who looks like Michael could be interested in a man like him.
Michael and James are made for each other. But they must let go of stubbornness to see that life finds a way and love has no limitations.

This is a tour de force, absolutely brilliant!
This was the first series Eli Easton wrote and while the first two books are good, this is where she hits her stride and shows the big heart and moving characters I’ve found in her other books. Michael Lamont is the gay sexual surrogate for the Expanded Horizons Clinic, working with disabled, disfigured or mentally repressed clients to help them gain trust or experience the power of sexual touch. He is a big sci-fi fan and when he meets his favourite author, James Gallway, Michael is uniquely placed to look past James’s wheelchair and into his heart. These are two perfectly sketched characters: Michael, warm and caring, unsure about telling James about his surrogacy work; and James, feeling washed up and abandoned, not sure if he can trust anyone. Michael Stellman always narrates well and he does a brilliant job here. Too good!

Meh
I loved the concept of this book but the execution is just so cliched and tiresome. I really struggled to get through all the sex. The novel felt like a badly written erotic fantasy with a story tacked on. The narration was also not very good. This was the first novel I've read by Eli Easton and it shall be the last.
