Tough Love

Men of Olympus, Book 2

By: Dianna Roman

Narrated by: Liam DiCosimo, Tim Paige

Damiano’s parents have never had any faith in him, so it’s no surprise when his new boss doesn’t either. He’s determined to prove Graham Brandt wrong though, if only he could stop pushing the man’s buttons and dreaming about tearing them off. It’s frustrating being a hot-blooded young man, particularly when your sexy boss is straighter than the level he uses on job sites.

What do you do when your ex-wife won’t come home, and you can’t stop thinking about your obnoxious apprentice? You lose your damn mind, apparently. That’s the only explanation for why Graham agrees to let Dami teach him how to explore his unexplainable desires. When the lessons are over, however, Graham learns he may have misunderstood not only sex education, but Damiano Andropolis.The school of tough love is in session, but who is teaching whom?

Great story

Really great story. outstanding narration and so very well written. tough love is book two an could be listened to as a standalone.

Sweet low angst story

This was a very sweet low angst read.

Dami is 23 and trying to find his way post graduation. No job has stuck and he is sheltered by his parents. He gets hired as a mason, of which he has no experience, and off he goes. He has had his eyes set on Graham but he’s straight.

Graham is 30 and really grumpy and divorced from his ex-wife twice. He has never felt like their relationship was right although he loved her since they were younger. I’m walks Dami, of which he trains and let the laughs begin.

I really enjoyed these guys.. they were super funny on the job and so sweet.

I listened to this book and the narrators did a wonderful job.

Great narration. Great story.

I could relate. Graham's character. He is in a difficult position of wanting to be the member of the family people can count on, but he still has his own issues to deal with.

The romance had a nice balance between sweet and steamy. The Midwest setting with a traditional Italian family was entertaining. The narration was performed well, and the narrator's voices seemed to match my idea of the character's.

I look forward to more books in this series because I am slowly becoming addicted to this author's writing style.

It was good

It was good. The story was smooth and easy to read. A good break from my regular genre. I didn’t realize this was a series so I’m going to read book 1 just so I can know the whole story.

It leaves you wanting love in your life.

This is how a novel should be written. This is how a novel should be read aloud. This is how two characters should give us romantic Chills of the best kind and leave us wanting to find the same thing in life.
This is a beautiful romance! The story of an aging twice divorcee who learns where he was going wrong in his two marriages to a woman he truly loves is not where he ever thought he'd end up. And a young man who discovers he needs a more stable hand to partner with in life to make his plans come to fruition.
If you love falling in love, you are going to really love this book.
