Review

I read this first but couldn’t pass up the chance to experience it as an audiobook. And it was just as good the second time.

It was my first by Narrator Harley Chase - and I was impressed. He’s got an incredible voice, and really captured the characters and the story.

My Original review:

Be still my 80’s reminiscent heart. It really was a different time, coming of age without technology. Add in being gay during the AIDS pandemic and decades before same-sex marriage will even be considered, and your heart will melt for Logan, hiding his sexuality, losing his mother, and acquiring a step-brother who he’s attracted to. And now his dream of road-tripping across the country with his best friend is falling apart.

But you’ll feel for Nick too. He is completely oblivious to why his new brother can’t stand him, wondering why his father left him, and his girlfriend too, who has broken his heart. It’s not all sunshine and roses for him either.

Three weeks trapped together in a car is probably a terrible idea.

Instead, we get a tender romance of self-discovery, understanding and love. It’s not always an easy road, but it is touching and set against a beautiful backdrop of travelling through multiple states.

Synopsis

A road trip that turned into a journey.

Logan

Nicholas Theodoropoulos had been my stepbrother since I was fourteen. Mom died when I was twelve, and I resented Dad remarrying so soon. Even worse, my stepbrother had grown into a gorgeous man. I hated looking at him, reminding me every day of what I could never have. No one knew I was gay and never would. But when my best friend backed out of our road trip to California, Dad forced me to travel with my stepbrother. It was the only way if I wanted to go on this journey I’d been planning since middle school. Nothing good would come out of this.

Nick

Logan Conrad had hated me since the day Mom and I moved into his house after our parents got married. Like I cared. I had an amazing girlfriend, was the star tennis player on the varsity team, and was a recent graduate. Soon, I’d be attending Stanford with an athletic scholarship and my favorite girl by my side. Life was good. But as fate would have it, I found myself suddenly single and forced to travel across the country with the one person who hated my guts. Nothing good would come out of this.It was 1987 as two young men and stepbrothers were forced to navigate resentments and growing feelings while on a three-week road trip from Virginia to California. Will their journey finally take them to where they belong?

About Courtney W. Dixon

Courtney W. Dixon loves to write erotic romance. She writes both m/f and m/m stories all in one series to add a variety to her characters. Though there are erotic elements to her stories, they are rich with relationship growth. Even those enemies to lovers, a favorite of hers. Her characters are filled with deep POVs with trouble pasts, full of depth and emotion. She tries to give them complexity and growth as their stories move. And her favorite is to break her main characters down to lift them back up in order to give them their HEA's.

Courtney is also a mixed media artist who's primarily been focused on writing lately. You can find her working in Central Texas with her husband, two boys and two crazy dogs, none of whom know how to knock on a door while she's working.
