About this listen

Never fall for the straight guy—Jasper knows better. At least until his straight guy crush starts crushing back....

Jasper Tanaka has made an art form out of avoiding commitment. Which is why his crush on a nearby café owner, Matt, has been perfect—the guy is straight, vanilla, and far too sweet—everything that puts him out of Jasper’s reach.

Matt Reed’s always been unlucky in love, never enough for his partners. And when his most recent girlfriend dumps him, he decides to take a chance on something new—a rope class. Lucky for him, Jasper’s there, and their time together sparks an attraction that both surprises and captivates Matt.

When a developer’s offer threatens to shut Tabletop Tavern down, Jasper’s grasping for any distraction possible—and Matt offers the perfect one. Except the intense feelings between become far too real, and if Matt decides this was just a curiosity, Jasper won’t survive the loss of the one guy he’s let in and the only home he’s ever known.

Roll the dice on romance at Tabletop Tavern....

This was my favorite book in the series. I liked Jasper's snarky comments and his attitude.
Matt was the perfect match for him and I loved him immediately. You cannot not love Matt. He's the kindest and sweetest person, he's like a teddy bear and I just want to keep him safe and make sure he's always happy.
Their chemistry was brilliant and their dynamics interesting and perfect. I loved them together. And I really appreciated the demisexual representation.
The romance was amazing but I also really liked the storyline about saving Tabletop Tavern. I loved how the community came together.
The narrator brought my favorite characters to life and was brilliant. I really really adored the narration. I had a blast listening the book.

Great narration with lots of feelings. The volume reduction when characters were talking quietly was a really good touch, but this made listening while driving difficult :).
Story - it was good to finally get the full background on Jasper. The MCs discovering unexpected things about themselves had some intense moments. Great found family.

excellent

This was a really sweet story. A man falling for his straight friend, both of them with business issues, and not knowing their appropriate role. I really enjoyed the in depth character arcs for both MC’s as well as the community banding together at the end to support the LGBTQ+ presence in their town.

The narration was easy to listen to and I enjoyed the story telling style, emotion behind the voices of each character.

Wonderful conclusion to the series and I love it when we get to catch up with all our old friends in the last book in a series. What I most enjoyed in this one was the fact that both Jasper and Matt have long-time expectations about themselves that clearly haven't been making them happy but when together, they decide to flip those expectations on their head they discover how wonderful a relationship can be and how great they can feel about themselves. A perfect ending for these two. Richard Reynolds did a great job with all the characters and their emotions.

I absolutely loved this story. I adored Matt from the very beginning, he completely had my heart. Both of these characters had experienced their fair share of pain and I really enjoyed their journey throughout this story. I will definitely need to check out other books by this author and I absolutely loved the narration style for this audiobook

Loved it
