About this listen

There he was…

Shirtless.

Wearing glasses.

Chopping wood like some kind of fantasy lumberjack.

And Emil was officially helpless.

Moving to the East Coast, Emil was there for two things exactly: to become a better person, and to face the part of his past he'd spent his entire life avoiding.

He most certainly hadn't planned on falling in love.

It was one thing to sleep with his absurdly hot neighbor for a single, steamy one-night stand, but it was quite another to become friends. And the longer Emil knows Renzo, the harder it is to walk away.

However, Emil has no faith in his ability to change, no matter how hard he tries, and he just wishes Renzo would believe him. He just wishes the man would stop giving him hope that behind those soft kisses was everything he'd ever wanted, and more.

Most of You is a standalone, angsty, one-night-stand to lovers romance with mall Santa mishaps, bonfires, New Year's kisses, the merits of a well-made hot chocolate, tons of praise, and a steamy, swoony happily ever after.

I liked this story about two mature men with a lot of baggage to overcome - one because of an emotionally abusive marriage, the other having endured a traumatic childhood with a mother with severe mental illness and a father who just wasn't around.

There's maybe a bit too much back-and-forth as they try to work out if they're in the right headspace for a relationship, but the miscommunication between them serves to illuminate their insecurities and then to help them to start coming to terms with them and working out how to move forward. Ultimately, Emil and Renzo very obviously care for each other a great deal and I liked how they were able to support each other and foster a sense of self-belief in one another.

Iggy Toma is a favourite narrator, so I picked this one up in audio confident that I'd enjoy the performance - and I did. My only criticisms are that Emil and Renzo are sometimes difficult to tell apart as their voices are both in the same register, and that the slight accent given to Emil (he's half-Norwegian) sometimes disappears. But it's a good performance overall, and I enjoyed the listen.
