A strict Daddy. A sassy neighbour. Can opposites attract?

 
Blurb

After taking early retirement, Liam is happy avoiding people and tending to his roses. Or he was, until young film star Felix moves in next door.

With his cheeky, persistent, and very naughty behaviour, Felix gets under Liam’s skin instantly.

Felix needs Liam to teach him how to behave, but will calling the older man Daddy be enough to bring sunshine into Liam’s life?

A Boy Made of Sunshine is a standalone gay romance, with mild D/s play, Daddy kink, a cute Dalmatian puppy, a ridiculous glow in the dark toy, and lots of brattish behaviour.


   My review:

I started the audiobook with a bit disappointment, because Dan Calley wasn't my first choice of narrator for this book, but after a while I forgot it and just enjoyed the audio. I loved reading this book so I had high expectations for the audio. It was good, but sometimes I lost my interest and the voices weren't perfect. 
I love those audiobooks where the MC's have clearly different voices, and while Liam and Felix's voices were mostly different, there were times when it blurred together. And sadly, but it didn't give me any feelings. Colette wrote an amazing book with all the feels, but the narrator couldn't bring it to life for me. It was only 75% on my scale, it wasn't bad but neither really good. Good for listen to it once.

+ after watching the live reading in Colette's fb group, I have to re-think my review, because watching Dan Calley readint the book was really good and I enjoyed it. It was only one scene, but it was much better this time when in the audio. I don't know why, but it is what it is.

Story: ★★★★★
Narration: ★★★★☆
