Chris Lomax swore he’d never return to Saugatuck, but nothing could have prevented him from coming home to the small lakeside town, not once he saw the news about the fire - and Hunter, the only person ever to steal his heart. He must make sure Hunter is okay, and service dog Lucy could lend a helping paw.

Firefighter Hunter Drake never expected to see Chris again. He thought he’d lost his best friend for good when Chris jilted Hunter’s sister at the altar. But right now Hunter needs to focus on his recovery. What he doesn’t understand is why Chris came back - and why he won’t leave.

The two men get to reconnect, but spending so much time together leaves Hunter confused and uncertain, especially when Chris reveals he’s both bi and in love with him. Hunter’s not sure what to do about that last part.

What Chris wants is for Hunter to forgive him.

What Hunter needs is to stop living in denial.

Yeah, as if it was ever going to be that easy...

I loved this book so much when I read it and when I found out that John Solo would be performing it, I couldn't wait to listen to it. I probably sound like a broken record but I really love the audiobooks I've listened to that John has done. He is in my top five favorite audiobook performers. He brings so much emotion to the characters in this story. I listened to whole thing straight through while I worked around the house. John Solo and K.C. Wells are a fantastic combination!

Below is what I wrote about the book when I read it back in April, 2020.

Here for You is a sweet, slow burn story about second chances. It features three of my favorite romance tropes: second chances, friends-to-lovers and gay-for-you/out-for-you.

Chris and Hunter were best friends growing up and Chris was supposed to marry Hunter's sister, Cally. No one knows why Chris left Cally at the altar or why he ran away and left town. It's five years later and Chris has returned because he heard that Hunter was injured fighting a fire; he had to see for himself that Hunter was OK.

Hunter isn't happy to see Chris; he'd never really forgiven him for leaving town the way he did – with no explanation. His feelings are all mixed up and coping with the after-effects of the fire and Chris being in his space aren't helping him any.

This story got me right in the feels. Chris really wants to make amends for leaving town the way he did. His parents don't give him too much of a hard time and, much to his surprise, neither does Cally. Hunter is the only one he cares about that still won't let him apologize. Seeing these two struggle to come to terms with everything going on in their lives was at times heartbreaking but ultimately uplifting.

Chris's dog Lucy was a huge part of this story. She can sense when she's needed and she provides a lot of comfort, especially to Hunter. I know someone with a service dog like this and it's amazing what her dog can do to help so I knew that Lucy's role in the story was spot on.

This is a great best friends to lovers, second chance and first time, I love Chris and Hunter’s story. Chris past mistakes forced him to flee his hometown but went he returns to makes things right with his parents, Callie and Hunter.

He finds himself still in love with Hunter but affair to confess his love for him, Hunter is a firefighter who recently has an accident in a rescue and all of this become hard for him and doesn’t wants to acknowledge his PSTD. Chris is a dog trainer and his dog Lucy is adorable, he want to help Hunter but he doesn’t know how. They journey together is so emotional and hard for the two of them but at the end I was so happy went they get together!!! I love the book and I highly recommended this audiobook, the narrative of John Solo Is amazing and I really enjoy it!

I thoroughly enjoyed this wonderful story, it captured both my attention and my heart from start to end. K.C. Wells is a gifted author, her storylines and characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with. I love her ability to bring you along side the characters allowing you to see what they see and feel what they feel. I adored the two lead character Chris Lomax and Hunter Drake, secondary characters were pretty awesome too, a great support cast. Chris left town after leaving Cally, his intended bride at the alter. Chris could not go through the wedding, he broke Calla’s heart and pissed off her family, including her brother Hunter, who was his best friend and in love with. Chris, an established service dog trainer saw in the news that Hunter, a firefighter was injured during a fire and rescue. He needed to see him, he took his dog Lucy with him and returned to his hometown. He has not been home and needed to make amends with those he hurt when he left so abruptly. Hunter was not that happy to see him but he was dealing with a lot. Chris has a surprising ally who helped him get back in Hunters life. Everyone could use such an admirable person in their life, one who forgives and looks out for their loved ones. I loved how everything plays out in this book, the story is beautifully plotted and there is never a dull moment. There is plenty of drama, angst, lots of heartfelt and emotional moments and a great friends to lovers second chance romance. K.C. does a great job raising awareness about mental health, PTSD, guilt, depression and mentions suicide, she handles it with care while keep it all real. Thank you for this wonderful story and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

John Solo is a talented narrator and voice artist. He is perfectly casted to bring these characters to life, humanize them, giving each their own voice and personality. His portrayal of each character is perfection, making them sound just as I picture them to sound. You could hear how much heart he puts into his work as he captures the characters emotions, their vulnerabilities which is heard in his performance. He is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another wonderful listen🎧

Wonderful Story & Listen🎧 Enthralling & Heartfelt!

I went into this audio thinking it would be the usual Friends to Lovers, second chance romance. And on some levels it is, but I also feel there is a little extra to this book.

The story is about Chris and Hunter and their journey from best friends who became estranged to supportive Romantic partners. The road to the HEA is by no means smooth, but the story manages to stay away from the usual homophobia and family disapproval for drama effect to deliver a warm heartfelt love story which still tugs on your heart strings.

I love the fact that you are able to see both Chris and Hunters families how they interact with the main characters directly and with each other. I like the world building the town and the people who live there. I just love this warm, funny loving story and I especially love Lucy.

I think John Solo narration is as always spot on bring each character alive, without going OTT on certain characters(could so easily be done)

Highly recommended listen 💖💖

An unassuming book with a whole lot of heart

The story is always 4-5 stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook. I can't listen to an audiobook without knowing the book, that's not possible for me.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, I’m over the half, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

as good as the ebook
