About this audiobook
Psychic Emory Jackson and former black ops specialist Jonathon Silver are men from two completely different worlds with one thing in common: heartbreak. Emory still mourns the loss of his husband five years prior, and Jon is reeling with grief from the recent death of his twin brother.
Sparks fly when mutual friends introduce them, but it's so much more than basic attraction. There's an undeniable awareness and a sense of belonging that neither man can deny. Despite Emory's premonition of a future with Jon, he has vowed never to love again. Jon is convinced that his tainted soul is the reason he will never have someone to call his own. What if they're both wrong?
Maybe these broken men with their jagged edges could somehow align perfectly to form something whole and beautiful. But will that realization come too late for them?
Contains mature themes.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Finally we have Emory and Jon’s story. Since the first time we met these guys in the Curl Up and Dye series, we finally get to see them both get their happy ever after. Emory is a psychic with a raw and bleeding heart. He lost his husband in a tragic car accident and hasn’t been able to move on. Jon is a dangerous man with a sordid past. He spent years in the military getting blood on his hands. When he finally retires and goes home, it’s only for him to discover he has a long lost twin brother. When his twin is murdered, Jon is left to pick up the pieces and manage the nightclub his twin left to him. Both men are hurting and lost and don’t feel ready for love. Fate has another plan.
So I liked the book, but I didn’t love it. There was way too much retelling of events that happened in the Curl Up and Dye series, and I felt like I was getting a long recap of a soap opera episode rather than reading a new book. I liked getting to know what Emory and Jon were feeling behind the scenes of the Curl Up and Dye series, but not at the expense of any real plot. The plot in this book was pretty loose and didn’t feel like it had it’s own identity. The last part of the book was the best part, and did a lot to redeem the book for me.
I love the characters, so I’m committed to finishing the Curl Up and Dye series and the Road to Blissville series. Aimee Nicole Walker has created some amazing characters that I have fallen in love with. Characterization is definitely her strong suite and makes up for a weak plot. Plus, the sex scenes are super hot and really enjoyable.1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved this book.Very cool story,great characters and an enjoyable listen.I shall add this author to my favourite Authors list.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Jon is a sweet and lovely character. He oozes uncertainty is some areas and absolute confidence in others. It's his entire make up and he is just right for Emory. I don't think that we got to know Emory as well as we might have, and although he took his time coming to terms with the whole "moving on" from a lost love, it only made him more loveable. The presence of River in this story made it more believable. I thought that the explanation of his abilities and the fact he has no idea know how to tap into them, or to control them, only tells us that he has the ability and the willingness to help and that he is not ego driven but just plain hurt. This is the second book in the series, and it seems the "Road to Blissville" series is going to keep getting better. All the other characters in the story rallied around to support them, which seemed to surprise Emory. I was expecting big things from him. He is a very complex character. The story left us knowing that Nate and River can go on knowing their loved ones are safe and that they want them to be happy...whatever life brings.
