About this listen

Tony Hart loves teaching, even though he's not much older than his high school students. Between his profession, a few good friends, and plenty of books, he's content with his quiet life. Then, the murdered body of another teacher falls into the elevator at his feet, and Tony's life becomes all too exciting.

Jared MacLean is a homicide detective, widowed father to a young daughter, and deeply in the closet. But, from the moment he meets Tony's blue eyes in that high school hallway, Mac can't help wanting this man in his life. Mac's not out and can't afford to be out, but Tony makes him want the impossible.

Mac isn't the only one with his eyes on Tony, though. As the murderer tries to cover their tracks, Mac has to work fast or lose Tony, permanently.

The narration by J.F. Harding made the characters come to life and held my attention. It is a good mystery with a not coming out theme running through it. The characters are so different from each other yet somehow the attraction is strong. Tony is out and everyone who knows him, knows that. When he is thrown into a bad situation Mac tries to protect him. Mac is tossed into a situation he has never had to face before. He doesn’t want a relationship. He “can’t” come out. He is uncomfortable addressing the whole thing. I enjoyed the story all the way through but one part that stuck out to me was when it was Tony taking care of Mac. This is supposed to be a hfn but it didn’t really seem like there was any part of the ending that was really happy. I got hooked though so I will read/listen to the next book to see how this relationship is played out. Check to be sure it isn’t something you have already read since it is a reissue.

Sort of a cliffhanger

exciting story that keeps you reading and worrying about the characters, not sure about the end as I like hea ends but it fits the story, its well narrated which is good.

Exciting and keeps you listening.

I always enjoy Kaje's writing and storytelling style. This is a compelling murder/mystery featuring a budding new romance between a teacher and the investigating (and closeted) cop. From the start, there's a connection and sizzling chemistry between these two and some steamy scenes follow.

There are various suspects and the murderer is not obvious at first. The drama builds to quite a long and suspenseful climax, and the story ends on a satisfying HFN. I'm looking forward to parts 2 and 3 in the series.

Superbly narrated as always by J.F. Harding, with great character portrayal, various distinct voices and excellent storytelling. Highly recommended.

This was my first book by Kaje Harper, and narrated by my all-time favorite JF Harding. For me it was the perfect balance of mystery and romance. I related well to both characters and wanted to keep listening to their story. Looking forward to the rest of the series on audio!

I received a free copy from the author with no expectation of review.

I was on the edge of my seat from chapter one and was completely caught up in the case!

The story is a brilliant balance of mystery and intrigue while introducing and endearing you to the cast of characters. As you learn more about the characters you learn more about the case but it kept me guessing and there were definitely some moments I was completely shocked!

The story is honest and I'm interested to see how Toby and Mac's relationship will progress as time goes on. I like that their relationship wasn't fast tracked to a HEA. It seems more real and honest. Mac is in the closet and can't just jump out and have everything be fine. I look forward to seeing what will happen next, although I hope for Tony sake he can stay out of the cross-hairs next time!

mystery and intrigue!

I'm a teacher and huge mystery fan, so I was sold on this one from the moment I saw "murder" and "teacher" in the blurb. I found the mystery intriguing and well done. I also enjoy m/m stories where the two characters have a strong attraction but where one is very much out and the other feels he must remain in the closet. Mac has good reasons for that here and while we have an HFN it's clear things can't go on as they are long term. Tony is going to eventually demand more. I'm very interested to see how things play out in the next book which I have purchased and am off to read now. I read this first but really enjoyed listening to J. F. Harding's performance. It brought out the suspense of the mystery and Tony's and Mac's frustration at trying to have a secret relationship incredibly well. Look forward to his performance of book two.
