About this listen

It's all fun and games until egos get hurt.

After a year of a seemingly happily-ever-after, Troy Babilonia throws a curve ball that smacks Larson Blackburn right in the head. When Troy's debut novel, Bridge to Lonely, threatens to overshadow Larson's own success, inviting a past shadow into the light of their present, the two alphas must learn to adjust.

Bridge to Lonely has garnered an unexpected success both in the literary world and in the film industry, forcing Larson to accept that he is not the only successful author in the building. But as Troy's old flame decides to make an appearance, the two alphas are forced to test the strength of their love. Let the battle of the egos recommence, where sarcasm is the preferred weapon and the testosterone levels go beyond the boiling point.

Because Black Balled just wasn't enough...Smith & LeNoir bring you Hard Edit.

A M/M romance with adult content.

Briliant!

I've pretty much read most of Andrea Smith's books, and I can't believe I missed this one. All I have to say is, WOW! Hard Edit is brilliantly written, riving, and wholly engaging; I was captivated from start to end. The characters are phenomenal with electrifying chemistry. Joel Leslie did an excellent job with the narration; he portrayed the characters very nicely, bringing them to life. This was a fabulous listen, one I highly recommend.

Perfect

This one had the perfect mix of humour, drama and all the feels to make time fly when you are Listening to this one. The characters were so well developed and the storyline well plotted out leaving me satisfied with the ending but feeling like i had lost 2 close friends,

A fantastic novel only made more powerful by the. Narrator. A fantastic job by both the narrator and the author to get this one to the level its at.

A perfect ending to a great series

I didn’t think it was possible for me to enjoy this one more than Black Balled, but I totally did. The witty banter and somehow perfectly imperfect characters may just be this writing duos calling card. The narration by Joel Leslie is absolute perfection as always. While I love his narration of Troy and Larson, his narration for Muffy and Ida, may actually be my favorite part. I recommend this entire series 100% and I know I will re-listening again in the near future.

Troy & Larson M/M

Book 3. This is the last book in this series. I think there are two before it but I only listened to Black Balled and Hard Edit. I enjoyed both books. Each guy has personal issues they are working through and even though they fight like crazy when it comes down to it they love each other unconditionally. I love their relationship and their banter. Again Joel Leslie does a fantastic job with narration. I definitely recommend these books. “Black Balled” is #1. “Guns Blazing” is #2 and “Hard Edit” is #3

wow

Amazing narration from Joel Leslie, just perfect.

There is never a dull moment, the storyline is filled with drama, humour, angst and some hot romance. Troy and Larson , each have their own strong personality. So many laugh out loud moments in this book. Everything was going great for Troy and Larson, their relationship and their careers are all going well. Troy finally published his book, he even got an offer to bring it to the screen. When the person who wants Troy to sign a contract to bring the book to film turns out to be a blast from his past, making matters worse is that Larson has history with this person too. Misunderstandings and miscommunication wreaks havoc on their relationship. I highly recommend this book,

Brilliant sequel

This book started a year into Troy and Larson’s relationship and had me wanting to bang there heads together then laughing out loud with them. When Nathan and Lloyd threatened their romance up stepped Ida again OMG she is such a doll. I loved how this was read over audio especially the dirty sexy scenes!!!

Great finish to a great series!

As this was book 3 (and sadly the last) I felt a wave of sadness that there would be no more but what a finish! Literally laughed out loud in parts and the finish wrapped up everything so perfectly.

Narrator was once again (he was continuous in all books) amazing from the depth and feeling from all characters and an overall smooth voice that made me relaxed and enjoy.

Overall loved the series and would recommend that you try the first book and fall in love with the characters like I have.

Fantastic sequel

The first book in this series Black Balled is one of the first m/m audiobooks I listened to and was the reason I started devouring anything Joel Leslie narrated.

This sequel did not disappoint in the narration or the story. It was great to see an established couple go through the ups and downs of a real relationship, made even harder for these two given how stubborn and alpha they both are! This book tackles real issues like jealousy, miscommunication, and coping with reality when the past comes back to haunt. The strength of the relationship between Troy and Larson really shines through.

The humour from the first book continued, I loved the interactions with the neighbours.

The narration by Joel Leslie is amazing as usual, stay tuned for the bonus chapters they are something else!
