About this audiobook
In the world of Kennedy, Illinois, non-competitive soapbox derbies, Gideon Chase’s son, Matthew, is a legend. He’s won two years in a row and, not for nothing, Gideon’s sure he’ll win this year, too. That is, until the Perrys move to Kennedy.
Matthew and Andy Perry hate each other… so, because they’re good dads, Gideon and Riley Perry hate each other too. Matthew’s already lost his mother; Gideon’s not about to let him experience the disappointment of breaking his winning streak. He’ll throw hands with anyone’s dad, even if he does try and tell Matty to be nice.
But Riley’s divorce is fresh, and he’s not about to let his son lose the tournament and the household he grew up in all in one summer. He might not be a competitive person, but Andy is — so he’ll learn. Even if he does think Gideon Chase is sort of fascinating and handsome… in a villainous, enemies-first-and-last sort of way.
But when a misunderstanding places the two of them in the middle of a relationship that is as fake as it is plausible, Gideon and Riley realize there might just be more to each other than they first thought.
This enemies-to-lovers queer romance follows two single dads trying their best in the hottest summer of their lives.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love how the kids bring the Dad's together and at the same time they have a hate love relationship and in the end I really thought that Clark was going to do something that ruins everything I've been hoping for in the last 13 chapters. But it turns out he's an understanding man. I love Riley and Gideon's relationship and how they're so understanding of each other makes me blush☺?☺
