Hard Sell

An LGBTQ Romance (Jade Harbour Capital, Book 1)

One night wasn't enough.

Danny Ip walks into every boardroom with a plan. His plan for struggling tech company WesTec is to acquire it, shut it down, and squeeze the last remaining revenue out of it for his Jade Harbour Capital portfolio. But he didn’t expect his best friend’s younger brother - the hottest one-night stand he ever had - to be there.

Tobin Lok has always thought the world of Danny. He’s funny, warm, attractive - and totally out of Tobin’s league. Now, pitted against Danny at work, Tobin might finally get a chance to prove he’s more than just Wei’s little brother.

It takes a lot to get under Danny’s skin, but Tobin is all grown up in a way Danny can’t ignore. Now, with a promising patent on the line and the stakes higher than ever, all he can think about is getting Tobin back into his bed - and into his life for good.

If only explaining their relationship to Wei could be so easy....

Really enjoyable romance!

I really enjoyed this one! A very sweet story. Danny and Tobin are well-rounded characters who I understood and liked. I’ll be checking out the rest of this series for sure. The narration was also really well-done.

Absolutely perfect!

I don't know what I was really expecting from this book. Both the author and narrator are new to me. It was a Plus catalog book . I was wonderfully surprised.

The book had just enough angst to keep you invested and rooting for a happy ending. The MCs were both interesting in their own right and brought distinct personalities to the story. There seemed to be a bit of stereotyping to the peripheral characters but it didn’t offend because it felt more like the author was writing from personal experience ( I believe they are of Asian descent). I loved the sweetness of the book and it was balanced by having some great spicy scenes as well.

The narrator was absolutely amazing. The characters were distinct and I never had trouble keeping track of who was speaking. I wish there were more books in their works.

Hard Sell - Family Drama

My favorite part of Hudson Lin's Hard Sell is the family drama. I loved Tobin's mom, truly endearing.

There's a lot going on in the story. Between Danny hiding stuff from Tobin, Tobin and Danny hiding their relationship from their family, Cyrus and his machinations... like I say, it's a lot. Darker elements pop in here and there, with wheeling and dealing a plenty. Danny finally is forced to face up to some of his motivations in an interesting turning point.

The cast of supporting characters could each get a book of their own.

Beautiful

I loved the narration and the pacing of the story. This story pulls all the heart strings and unfolds beautifully in an engaging way that just pulls you in.

Loved it 🔥🤩✨

Great Story

Loved the book. Two childhood friends who lost their way to each other made way to become more. Wonderful ending to a great story.
