Blake works hard, plays hard and his car is his baby. Said car breaks down and is taken to Parker's shop for repair. Can Blake slow down, chill a little with Parker over the weekend?? A delightful, absolutely delightful way to spend 2 hours and 13 minutes! Its a perfect bath tub read, or in my case something to listen to while doing the chores. Its not a complicated plot, very simple, actually, and there is no major break up and make up. Its just a weelend with Blake and Parker, getting to know one another, falling out with family members and losing someone most dear. There is a single love scene between Parker and Blake, but thats cool. Its very well written, and I use LOVE and not SEX, because to me, it came across, right there and then, that the love between them was growing. They never actually say the words, though. A perfect hangover cure, bath tub/ lunch break READ if ever there was one. BUT this is an AUDIO review. SO, its a little longer than a lunch/bath tub book, just over 2 hours. Jason P. Hilton narrates. This is the first of his work I have listened to, but it won't be the last. His (American) accent while strong, is not overpowering, his definition between characters is clear and concise, so you know who is talking at all times. The emotions of the characters comes across well, and in ALL the right places. Especailly during the above mentioned love scene :-) I can't quite stretch to 5 stars for the book, because it is so short, but... 4.5 stars for the book, 5 for narration, 4.5 overall.

Kerry loves history and spends large amounts of time wondering about people who lived and walked on Earth in the past. She’s a mom to three daughters, six cats, and various small animals. Her husband says she’s a marketer’s dream, as she often believes everything she hears—at least initially. Her shoe horde will attest to her fine shopping skills.
In addition to writing, Kerry loves to sew (costumes and cosplay, especially), draw, paint, make chainmail, and play guitar.
Her new love is her Mini Cooper Convertible, Sheldon, and they have already gone on many adventures. They travel to as many concerts as they can–especially Green Day and Marilyn Manson.
