Summary

“He's waiting for me to ask, and I'm afraid.” 

“I'm just one more gay guy here.” 

Moving to the suburbs of L.A. was supposed to give Nic Montero a fresh start. After escaping his family, coming out as a gay trans man, and excelling in computer programming out of desperation to get financially stable or die, everything should be easy. But joining gay culture now, post-transition, feels impossible...until he runs into the force of nature that is Kyle. Everything Nic isn't, Kyle embodies. Green hair, garters and cut-off shorts, sports jerseys, and all, brash Kyle is the most gorgeous man he's ever laid eyes on, and he pulls Nic headlong into the center of his world. If only Nic felt like enough for a man like Kyle. 

“One-night stands are my only option.” 

Loud, loving, and too much for most men to handle, Kyle Everett catches eyes and occasionally scorn...even at his job at the local HIV charity, Plus. His days and nights are spent at work, his precious spare moments spent with his son, Kevin, when it's his turn to co-parent, or his best friend, drag queen River. He only has money or time for cheap flings, but the lanky otter who walks into his life makes Kyle want to hold him for longer than a night. He knows what it's like for Nic to be without a family, but he isn't brave enough to let this man into his life...until his charity is targeted by bigots, and Nic's there for him. 

“I'll stay with you if you're brave enough to be you.” 

Nic spent his 20s avoiding family and even his own femininity, but his yearning is impossible to ignore. Kyle's used to flying solo, but Nic offers him safety and fills gaps in his life he never realized existed and now can't stand. Living in close proximity, they can't run from their attraction, but they're each used to being rejected, with the emotional scars to prove it. Can two men who feel like they're not enough and too much find something just right?

Easy solutions

The characters were good and the narration great. It's just... sometimes an author accepts the first things that come to mind. And mostly those prove a lack of imagination and can ruin a story. So this novel is a strange combination of original and cliché.

I absolutely love this book!

Kyle and Nic are both wonderful characters, with some insecurities but also a great amount of strength and faith in themselves that enables them to develop a slow-but-steady-paced relationship.
I think Ed Davies manages to portray Nic being trans and Kyle being enby in a beautiful way, and I love how they find it in themselves and each other to go a step beyond and overcome their bits of fears to be together, unapologetically their true selves.
Joel Leslie, well, Joel Leslie makes every book he narrates into a work of art, so I really wish I could give an additional star to this audiobook!

Great feel good LGBT story

Nice paced story, likeable characters. nice to read a story about a healthy gay relationship between a trans man and a cis man. Some oddities and inaccuracies reference Nick's trans body but overall the story is positive and loving. and Nic and Kyle are to die for together ♥️

Really enjoyed

I really enjoyed listening to this book following both Nic and Kyle as they deal with life and what they think they should look like. Kyle helps Nic.

Very good story

I really enjoyed Flaunt. It was a great story to listen to. I haven’t read the book yet (I really do prefer reading them first) and I will definitely be reading as soon as I can. I liked the pace Joel Leslie kept in his narration and that he used different inflections and voices for each character. I liked his voice and enjoyed listening to this book. I thought the Nic and Kyle were interesting with different issues and I liked their story. It was a hot, easy to listen to story and I would recommend it.

I’m in love

I’m in love with this book it was just different and so entertaining. I loved the trans part of the book as it isn’t something I have seen in a lot of novels. I also enjoyed the fact that it wasn’t over the top drama and the nice dose of chemistry and heat were very welcome.

Finding their own way.

Nick has recently started working for Synergy and has been given an assignment to work with a charity to update their computer software. His liaison within the charity is Kyle. Although they don't know it yet they both have alot of past hurt and family rejection in common with each other as well as an attraction toward each other. lots of angst and homophobic behaviour as well as fun, friendship and family. Joel Leslie did a great job narrating and he did a really convincing job of sounding like a conjested kid, one of the best child voices I have heard since I started listening to audio books. I really enjoyed the story and can't wait to listen to book 2 in the series.

Great book, great audio

Nic a gay trans man and computer geek moved to La for a new start, and a new job.

Working for a large computer company his first assignment is at a gay HIV charity to sort out their IT needs.

Shy and uncertain of his identity still and having no friends made Nic a little uncertain of himself.

Kyle a complete force of nature, loud proud and def gay is Nics contact at the charity.

This is a really delightful book, you get a lot of drama, some gay hate, violence, hurt, comfort, love, confidence building, family, friends, seriously this book has everything including a HEA.

Loved listening to this on Audible plus I read it a good year ago. Great book. Narrated well by Joel Leslie.

Great Story

I loved this series in text and the audio does a wonderful job of bringing it to life. Vibrant characters, interesting plot, hot chemistry, a great read. Also appreciated the gender non-conforming and trans leads getting to take center stage here (and throughout the series). Great listen.
