About this listen

Tracy Brandt considers himself a lucky man. He has a wonderful family, good friends, and a dependable job. His love life, however, features a cheating ex who, though out of the house, is not yet out of the picture - with a past that just might get Tracy killed.

Homicide inspector Cord Nolan wants nothing more than to show his best friend's little brother that he's a reliable man, but to do that he'll have to get Tracy to look past the player he used to be. It'll be a tough sell; reputation is everything, and Cord's is tarnished by his past indiscretions.

Tracy and Cord have spent five years trying to suffocate their fiery attraction under a blanket of grudging antagonism. When Tracy finds himself with a target on his back, Cord finally has the chance to ride to the rescue and break through the dam of Tracy's reserve. But he'd better be careful: if Cord is breaking the floodgates to wash away the past, he's going to have to hold tight to Tracy to make sure they're still standing when the tumult recedes.

Floodgates

This was a new to me narrator and I really enjoyed the performance sped up to 1.2 seems to really help as I’m usually a very quick reader and struggle with some audiobooks

One of Mary Calmes best stories

I always loved Floodgates even though it's one of Mary Calmes's stories that hasn't seen much traction. I love it because it's down to earth, with no extravagant descriptions, with not a million side characters that have nothing to do with the story and not an oblivious but likeable by all MC.

Cord and Tracy have great chemistry and I just loved seeing a 5 year build up (the build up was off page) resulting in such a strong HEA.

As far as narration goes, I love Michael Anthony's voice but to be honest sometimes I couldn't distinguish between his Tracy voice and his Cord voice and there was very little performance and feeling.

Enjoyable story

A well written story with likeable characters. There was a little inconsistency with police procedures that niggled but other than that all good.

Tolerable

When chosing Mary Calmes to read, you know there will be a lot of ridiculousness in the novel and the MC is the same as every other story. I was in the mood for that. Narration was great.
