Summary

A relationship with his brother’s best friend had only ever been a dream.

A chance reunion with his brother’s childhood best friend leaves Arden hungry for attention. He’s always loved Iggy, despite their vast age difference, but he didn’t know Iggy was gay until now. His family wouldn’t approve. His brother wouldn’t approve. Plus, Arden isn’t in a position to have a relationship. 

Arden’s phobia is slowly killing him and consuming his life, and he doesn’t see a way out. He’s desperate to break free, but every day is a losing battle. It would be an impossible thing to hide, and when Iggy finds out the truth, could he love him the same, or will he decide Arden is too much to handle? 

Cravings of the Heart is a hurt-comfort brother's-best-friend age-gap MM romance with moderate angst. It is part of the Trials of Fear series but can be enjoyed as a stand-alone.

Fear of the food and eating. LOVE IT

I looooooove this story and on audio with Adam's voice, just *eeeeeeeek*. Perfection. I love how he gives life to this characters with his voice, full with emotions. Nicky created an amazing world with this series, different love stories around different phobias, and then comes an awesome narrator and brings them to life, it's just perfect.

Teenage crush turning into love, brother's best friend, add an eating disorder ermm I mean phobia, fear of eating. Love it. And the characters are just the best. Loved reading this and now listening to it was great too

what an emotional story

wow, I'm not sure what to say. Nicky has this tendency to write the most emotional and heartfelt stories and writes about difficult issues that you don't read a lot about and it's very clear she has done her research. i had tears in my eyes a lot of times listening to this. I felt Arden's anxiety. But above all it was a beautiful love story between Arden and Iggy but also about acceptance and love in a family. The narration was spot on too. Nick did so well with telling the story and getting the emotions and feelings across. I really enjoyed listening to this.

To conquer it all

Story: Oh my lanta! The wringer the author put the MCs through was really impressive! I am in awe of Nicky James' talent of portraying the emotional traumas and struggles. The writing craft is really spot on and the story had my heart in a vise grip from start to finish!
Narration: The performance was so perfect! I fell in love with Arden all over again with the spot on voice Adam Gold gave him! It brought the story to a whole new level!

Touching

This story is a heartbreaker. It is mainly about Arden who has a phobia of food. He lost his twin sister years ago through botulism from food prepared badly. Arden also had it but he was able to recover but ended up with a few problems besides the phobia. He also is gay and comes from parents that believe he should be able to overcome it! He has been lying about why he is not eating but again his parents believe this is a choice of his. Arden also has had a crush on his brother’s best friend Iggy for years. When circumstances bring them together the attraction between them moves beyond crush. Iggy is a EMT so he feel’s Arden’s problems are more than he is admitting. When Arden ends up hospitalized the story gets serious. Iggy’s character is wonderful. He stands by Arden. It is interesting to see the family relationships as they change. There are so many issues addressed in this story and yet the author does a wonderful job of making sense of everything, addressing it all and making me really enjoy the stories. I think Adam Gold did a great job of bring life to the different characters. His narration made the story that much more enjoyable.
