About this listen
Six years ago, an unforeseen incident turned Rory Gallagher’s life upside down. Now, he lives in darkness, fearing the sun, fearing light altogether. Rory has developed Heliophobia. As a creature of the night, Rory has learned to adapt to his unusual lifestyle. He draws comfort from shadows and safety from the nighttime hour.
Unfortunately, his mind is the darkest place of all, and the one place he can’t seem to escape.
Finding help isn’t easy, but when Rory registers with a local, 24-hour counseling center, the man he meets surprises him in more ways than one. Young psychology student, Adrian Anderson, is Rory’s complete opposite. How will this smart, preppy, do-gooder ever get through to the man with a chip on his shoulder who has learned to hate the world?
It doesn’t take long for Rory to discover they have something horrific in common. Despite rules and regulations, this sad detail helps them form a bond neither of them expected. Could Adrian be the shining light Rory needs to dispel the darkness for good?

Amazing!
This was an amazing audio. Adam Gold is one of my very favorite narrators because his narrations are just next level. They are almost an immersive experience when listening to him bring books alive. Once again he’s done a wonderful job bringing Nicky James’s words to life. He was so amazing in bringing Rory and Adrian (not to mention Krew) to life for me. Adam Gold hit the many emotional peaks of the story for Rory and Adrian. I could feel the anguish that Rory faced when he wasn’t able to venture out of his house due to his heliophobia; and that Rory faced when bullied by his roommates. This was such an emotionally wonderful read as each man faced their own fears that made them feel trapped. The emotional connection that Rory and Adrian shared together was so moving. My heart broke for Rory for his past, which led him down this six year life without sunlight and then artificial light. The support Adrian provided for him to grow was so touching. I absolutely loved this story and I cannot wait to listen to this whole series come to life!

Almost impossible to imagine
Every time I listen to/read one of this author’s stories I say it’s the best and yet again the next time I have to say this story grabbed me for different reasons. This author has the ability to take a character, give them such a description that I feel this story has to be real and then drags me through such emotional highs and lows, I’m exhausted at the end. This series has characters that are taken to their limits and somehow are able to find their way out.
Rory has suffered all his life in one way or another but six years ago a prank done to him was life threatening. He has such a fear that his bff convinces him to talk to a therapist.
Adrian has had more than his share of being bullied. His being gay has sent him to a college far away from everything he knew. The problem is that bullying followed him. His current roommates have done really mean things to him and they keep getting worse. The problem is his dad is paying for his housing and doesn’t listen. Things get out of hand and he is cornered trying to figure out how to deal with it. He starts a job that brings him into contact with Rory. From there the attraction grows until both are forced to deal with their issues.
This story is told in such a fashion is it easy to picture all these awful happenings as they occur. I have found few author’s that have the ability to bring characters and situations to life as well as this one can. I think Adam Gold’s narration did a good job representing these characters. I would highly recommend this series.

Love this series so much
This series is one of my absolute favourites. Hearing what some people go through with phobias is heartbreaking.
I know these books are works of fiction but wow they seem so real especially with the amazing voice talent of Adam Gold.
I will definitely be back for more.

A-MA-ZING!
Story: From the first minutes, the narration style and the story had me completely hooked! I loved the emotional way the story was told and how raw it all felt. There was no sugarcoating here and the dose of angst was just right!
Second in the series, the book delivers the same quality as part one in terms of writing craft and compelling characters!
Narration: A very soulful, deep voice, that fit the book just right! The characters were easy to tell apart and the performance was flawless.
