Elias:

Moving to Daleport City to work at the local fire station was going to be hard. Then I met Cade. Turns out, I’d met my new best friend, and for two years, he’s been by my side through everything. The guys tease us about how close we are, but we’re straight, just good friends. Then Cade and I found ourselves having to pretend to date, pretend to be attracted to one another…And then we stopped pretending.

Cade:

As if having a female stalker and a harpy for a mother wasn’t enough, I’m also in a fake relationship with my best friend? Then we ended up kissing…and more. Elias is straight, I’m straight, and we suddenly want to do not so straight things. That’s pretty much where I am now. So tell me… what am I supposed to do?

Elias and Cade, two straight firefighters and best friends, find themselves in a fake relationship that leads both men into territory they’ve never ventured into before. Can their friendship survive? Will they ever want to go back?

Not a bad story but needs to be read bc the narrator was way too robotic and not acting enough with the story.

Would have been. ton better with. different narrator.

This is book 1 of the Heroes of Port Dale. I really enjoyed this book. The Narration by Keith Smith is smooth and I was able to just sink into this story. I love the internal dialogue of the two MC's. I would happily recommend this series. I am looking forward to book 2.

Great start to this series

Initially, I admit I was influenced by the reviews and immediately disliked the narrator. When I tried to figure out what I didn’t like I realized that he seemed to drag out the story, I increased the rate and this helped a lot. The “abouts”were pronounced (Canadian?) but what drove me crazy was that many times I heard “Kate” when it was “Cade.” Annoying, but not horrible.

Once I got more comfortable with the narrator I became more aware that the bigger issue for me was the story. The third person narratives made it feel cold. Even though the chapters identified which character was speaking it didn’t help.

The story itself was not bad...maybe even good, but the issues stated above made it challenging to get “lost” in the story which is kind the idea for a romance story. Having said all this I am going to give the next story a chance...hoping that I won’t regret it.
