Perfect pairings

Blue and Levi just "get" each other and that makes their deepening relationship a joy to see. There is just enough spooky stuff mixed with the steamy romance and humor to make you root for them to survive everything they have to to reach their HEA. In just the same way, Lily Morton and Joel Leslie "get" each other. That Joel can do all the voices required should go without saying by now (he is stunning here with all the accents) but he also gets Lily Morton's humor and knows just where to bring it out without interrupting the flow of the serious story or going over the top. This is a 5+ star performance all the way around.

even though I figured out who the 'demon' was at the very beginning I still really enjoyed this book.

the story was interesting and I loved the characters.

very fun story, over the top narration

this is a very enjoyable and genuinely creepy ghost story/romance, with decent characterisation and enough atmosphere to carry it past a couple of odd inconsistencies (characters understanding what's going on but then not getting the supernatural stuff all of a sudden etc).

the narration drives me crazy though: the different voices are so overwrought and breathless and exaggerated it gets really grating, especially as the drama builds and it's just hammy as heck. that's my preference though, if you liked books acted out a lot then it might be fine for you.

Amazing story and brilliant narration

This is a different type of book for Lily Morton but at its heart, it's the same as her other books. It's well-written, the relationship between Levi and Blue is well-paced and believable, there's humor, and the story is excellent. There are a few spooky places but overall, it's a great, different read for any occasion. I cannot wait for more of Blue and Levi. They're so good together.
Joel Leslie is amazing like always. I don't know how, but he manages to narrate all these books and does them so well. He could read anything to me and I would fall instantly in love.

Great book

I enjoyed this. The ghost story/psychic genre isn’t my normal listen, but I buy loads with m/m relationship and Joel Leslie narration. Nice amount of atmosphere and ghost story tense moments, but also good relationship building and intimacy. The book ending lends itself to a series as there’s more relationship development possible, and the direction their work lives are going. Good balanced book all round!

Compelling characters, average story

The first half was really good. I liked how the author took her time to set up the characters and make them likeable. Their meeting and early interactions are sweet. The ghost mystery is set up nicely too, so I found myself hooked.
However, as the romance progressed the story took the backseat. Revelation was a bit too obvious even before the men went about solving it. The way they did it was also anticlimactic, The constant banter between the two got stale with time, They went out of their way to sound sassy and smart in every situation, even the most dramatic one, which broke the immersion for me.
And the smut scenes just take the cake. The romance books written by gay men that I've read come nowhere near this level of unnecessary detail. It's simply gross and make me think that this female author has a fetish,

Spooktacular!!!

I waited for this book to come out on audio. It was not easy but based on my friends’ comment regarding this book, it’s going to be so much better on audio. Yes, it’s so worth the wait!

The story is so wonderfully written. Blue & Levi’s character development was a joy to read, so was the evolution of thei relationship. Also, trademark Lily Morton — the characters are adorable with a sense of humor.

I simply just love this audiobook. Joel Leslie is a master accent specialist, he continues to amaze me. Lily’s stories & Joel’s voices, it’s one heck of a combo!

Another fantastic listen from lily and joel

Blue is one of my favourite books by lily and I have been waiting for it to come onto audible and it doesn't disappoint.
Joel does a brilliant job with everything, The characters voice and accents are amazing and I must say I really enjoyed his Brian at the beginning.
The suspense of certain bits is done in such a way that I was wondering what happened next even tho I have read the book so many times before but Joel just added to it and it was like the first time again. well done guys
