Top 10 MM romance for good reason

This book always turns up in people’s Top Ten MM romance and have had it on my rainy day wish list for a while. It’s Ireland so it’s a long list but I was glad I saved it. Really good, just loved the narration, the characters and the story. The sex is hot and I fell so hard for these guys, I was invested in their HEA from the beginning. I could do without the jarring porn music at the start of every chapter but otherwise I would recommend this to any MM fan.

The Heat Is On

Where does Hot Head rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

One of my favourites, certainly enhanced by the excellent narration

Who was your favorite character and why?

I liked both main characters, but for me it has to be Griff! He came across as a really likeable and genuine guy and who anyone would love to have as a friend

Which scene did you most enjoy?

With a book this good it is hard to pick just one - so I can't pick one!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It certainly was, but just not possible to do

Any additional comments?

A great story with excellent narration by Charlie David

Worth listening a second time

Would you listen to Hot Head again? Why?

Despite the slow start ( I actually returned this book some time ago, being too bored by the bar scene at the beginning) this is a book I would listen again. Just because it feels good.

Who was your favorite character and why?

This is a difficult one. Can't choose. Really can't. Please don't make me.

What does Charlie David bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

I may sound like many other readers but Charlie David really breathes life into the characters and transports your right there next to them.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were quite a few moments that moved me in different ways but I suppose the Thanksgiving dinner is one of my favourites.

Any additional comments?

I wish there are more books available by Damon Suede.

Hot and heartwarming!

I really enjoyed this book, practically finished it in one go (although with ten hours of narration that actually meant over two days).
The detail around 9/11 was kinda heartbreaking, and there’s also stuff here around hate crimes - don’t read this if you don’t want any seriousness in your life at all. The warmth of Griff and the sass and scrappiness of Dante, plus the fabulous other members of his family, just makes this such a lovely story.
The narrative was done well, good differentiation between characters, although there are a couple of bits that I found difficult to follow whether something was being said out loud or an internal narrative. I think this was probably something that was due to how it was written though - with interspersed bits - so not sure the narrator could have done anything differently.
Funny, sexy and warm. Loved it.

Too hot to handle at times!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This is a wonderful story of two men trying not to let the other one know how they feel.Best friends and soul brothers - They can't be gay - two butch fireman- can they?

What was one of the most memorable moments of Hot Head?

The kiss at the firestation- OMG - one of the most erotic kisses I have ever listened too!

What does Charlie David bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

I really liked Dante and Griffin at the Hot Head studio- something different I had never read before! The narrator really made those scenes when the two guys were bringing one another off!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The scene where Griff found Tommy after his bashing - very moving :-(

Any additional comments?

Totally adored this book! I listened to it at work where I do a very boring data entry job - and have to admit it got me very hot under the collar at times! It was interesting hearing a bit about 9/11 also from fireman's POV. I will definitely watch out more from Damon and hope Charlie David is the narrator.Louise

Excruciatingly bad!

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

One of the worst stories I've come across. The narrator does a great job with the material, but the story is entirely contrived, characters one-dimensional and all uniformly idiotic -especially the lead characters, and the setting is so far-fetched the writer hasn't even bothered to try and make it realistic.

Would you ever listen to anything by Damon Suede again?

No

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

Great Narrator - especially given the material.
