Resumen del Editor

Gabriel "Fox" Morrison is starting a brand new chapter in his life. He spent years drifting after his time in the military and finally felt ready to settle in one spot. This leads him to becoming the head detective of the recently opened Stonewall Investigations in Miami. His first case is one that not only hits close to home, but the result could have huge repercussions for more than just him and his client.

It's a case so big, he decides to enlist some help.

Jonah Brightly is ending a huge chapter of his life. Him and his girlfriend have zero spark and his professional career is in shambles after an on-work incident leaves him with more than a physical scar. A new job as a private detective would be a lifeline he so badly needed.

He goes in for his interview and meets Fox, the man who changes everything for him.

Both of them are rocked by an unexplainable force, and both are left questioning everything they've known in its wake. As they form a bond, they learn there's much more that brings them together than holds them apart. But can they keep fanning the flames of their newfound passion, or will they be consumed by the growing fire?

Contains mature themes.

Swoony, funny, and steamy

Awww, this was so much fun. It was swoony, funny, and steamy. It might be my favourite of the Stonewall books!

It has a really great gay awakening and a sweet guy who finds someone to love him wholly. Together Jonah and Fox have sexual tension that could power a generator, and a connection to make us all a little jealous.

As these two Stonewall detectives try to take down a drug ring, they also have to figure out if they will be stuck pinning for each other or if they get their dream man alongside their dream job.

Brought to life by Greg Boudreaux’s narration you get a really fun story to fill your day.

Excitement and romance

The story was suspenseful, sexy and sweet. Couldn't pause. The narration was professional and excellently performed.

Too whinny

I really liked the previous series but this one is full of too much whinny bullshit, I liked the previous series because it didn’t have much of that but this book has way too much

Bad Idea

Omg this audio book was absolutely positively amazing. I would highly recommend this audio book.

Excellent

Great start to a new series. New author for me. I always enjoy starting an new series with new authors.

Decent story. Good narration.

The melodrama and hormone fueled plot continue. If you appreciate either one of those, you will enjoy the story. I had a little trouble with ex-girlfriend hate. She may not have been a sweetheart, but she probably didn't deserve to be lied to either.

I have been listening to the Stonewall series, and something kept bothering me about the storytelling. I couldn't quite sort it out until this book. The problem is the first person narration. Some of the internal dialogue doesn't match the character's personality. Describing the sunset in eloquent details if the the character doesn't speak eloquently just doesn't work. This made parts of the narration feel uncomfortable to me.

I also had a little trouble with the way a former law enforcement officer behaved. The author tells me the character was law enforcement, but he seems to be missing some of the quirks you expect if you know one. More show and less tell would help me believe the story a bit more.

I appreciate the social commentary and the the characters do seem to have chemistry. This is a decent read/listen if you are looking for a steamy story with detectives.

Oh to have a love like this...

I smiled so much my cheeks hurt. Beautifully written love. Great story arc. Love Greg’s narration, as always.

A wonderful romance and great detective story too.

I really enjoyed this audiobook, Very romantic, sweet & spicy, but also a tense Detective drama. I Lol'd many times and felt so much empathy for the main characters. I will definitely listen to the rest of the series. Greg B. is an outstanding narrator, I always enjoy his performances.

Such an enjoyable listen

I loved this so much. I am officially a huge fan of Max Walker; he proves himself a great writer again and again. I have really enjoyed all of his characters and their connections with one another, and I love the whole Stonewall team.
The mystery that they are all trying to solve helps to create another element to help move the story along, but at the same time it does not drown out the story of Fox and Jonah either.
*slight spoiler* As for Fox and Jonah, some may not appreciate the pace in which they connected and got together, but it worked for me 100%. I have a hard time caring when stories don't have the characters connect until the very end, so I appreciated that we got to experience Fox and Jonah's attraction for one another throughout the entire story.
I am looking forward to what Max comes out with next!
Oh and of course Greg Boudreaux was amazing as always; he brings the characters to life beautifully!

The performance brings it alive and Fox and Jonah make my heart melt

Yes, the story is clearly fictional and at times very unbelievable BUT it’s a feel good story with lots of positivity and a couple that feels the pull from the first second - and I loved that.
I enjoyed the book particularly as the narrator is excellent in bringing it alive with various pleasant voices and even making it obvious when it’s a thought or spoken out.
Entertaining
