I'm half way through this audiobook which means I've been listening for 4.5 hours and while there have been laughs, it's been the same "joke" over and over - that Beau stands in for his twin brother Chase, a presenter on a life style TV show.
Chase is a high strung, tantrum-loving, generally unpleasant person. Beau, who lives in the woods, is nice! - into meditation, and cares about treating people well.
So although the show manages to make the woodsman, Beau, look like the Chase, Beau can't act like an awful person to save himself, so he is in constant danger of giving away the deception.
Ethan is the brains and the producer behind the lifestyle show. He finds Beau attractive but there's no sign of romance halfway through! and what with being stuck on the one 'joke', it's a bit of a slog to keep going.
The story is basically a couple of days of stress for Ethan, trying to train Beau to be Chase ... even though everyone is in raptures about the new improved version of Chase!
It's read by John Solo, whom I normally like, but in his effort to make the most of the comedy, I find myself getting tired of his histrionic version of Ethan, the story's narrator.
It made me wish his performance was diluted by the author writing separate parts for Beau and Ethan, with separate narrators.
That is one thing I've really come to appreciate about the romance novel, writing from the perspectives of each lead - multiperspectivity. ( )

I always assumed that if I were in The Wizard of Oz, I'd be the lovable scarecrow or the glamorous Glinda, or even Dorothy if I didn't have to wear gingham — the devil's plaid.

Help us toast the summer season at a special outdoor screening of The Wizard of Oz. We hope as the sun sets and Dorothy makes her way down the yellow brick road, you'll realize there's no place like home and that home is wherever you feel loved and welcome. We hope you'll always feel at home with us. Sincerely Ethan Wells, Hotelier. Beau Myles, Chef.
