About this listen

"Whatever happens in the future, whatever we become in life, know you’re the best thing that ever happened to me."

Taking up shop in the former kosher bakery, Wilder Torres breathes new life into old traditions, but there’s a darkness about him most of the residents in Cherry Creek don’t want to touch. He’s a kind and quiet man, but Wilder hides scars under long sleeves from a vicious attack that nearly took his life, and he’s determined never to let anyone close enough to hurt him ever again.

And then he meets Lorenzo Moretti, a stranger sitting on a park bench, looking like the world had just kicked him in the gut.

Wilder has seen that look before, for years whenever he looked in the mirror. He knows the disaster that lies ahead, but he can’t deny wanting, even if he knows it’ll be hard work. And Wilder also Lorenzo deserves someone to remain steady and love him through it all. Even if he can’t find the ability to love himself.

Story: On the Market stories, this one included, are always a beautiful journey we get to take part in, alongside complex, amazingly well portrayed characters. Love Him Steady includes two people looking for balance and steady support they find in each other. It's realistic, visceral and absolutely enchanting.
Narration: Nick Hudson did a great job once again! Great acting that enhances the story without overpowering it.

Beautiful journey

Book four in an ongoing series, On the Market. Two men seek something they are missing from their lives, they find each other in Cherry Creek. Another fantastic story in the series that in my opinion can be listenened/read as a standalone but definitely better to listen in series order to know all the side characters. Nick Hudson did a great job narrating their story.

Since being introduced to Wilder I have been waiting for his story. I loved it. I was not disappointed and this was the perfect story for him. Lorenzo was not who i was expecting as his love interest but he was a great character.

Finally Wilder

There is just something about Cherry Creek… it’s not a picture-perfect town, but you know if you go there, you may just find what you are looking for…
Lorenzo Moretti is not exactly sure what he is looking for, but he knows he need to make drastic changes in his life. In his 40s he leaves a shallow and meaningless life, and, most of all, he feel he does not deserve love or meaningful connections or friendships. That’s why he resolves to go to Cherry Creek, where his brother Rocco has found love and came back a new and happier man.
His beginnings there are disastrous: he is not used to the small town pace and to interacting with people without throwing money as a buffer, so he comes off as rude and presumptuous.
Just as he thinks he may as well leave and go back to his previous life, Wilder Torres lends him a friendly hand and urges his to stay and give the town another chance.
Wilder himself finds himself interested in Lorenzo, for the first time, years after having been attacked and left almost dead.
The romance and the story that ensues is gentle, comforting and sweet. I loved how effortless and drama-less it is, considering both men are already struggling with their own difficulties.
I am totally in love with Nick Hudson's narration for this series, it just enhances the already beautiful stories so much!

Sweet hurt/comfort.

Okay, so I have to explain my title without giving too much away. Love Him Steady is the fourth book in the On the Market series and this goat is quite notorious. His greeting of Lorenzo is funny/painful and I’m sure the male readers cringed. But Lorenzo is set on fitting in with Cherry Creek, and that means going back and facing the creature. The second time goes well. But Lorenzo almost didn’t stay. He’s Rocco’s older brother (from the first book) and he’s come to Cherry Creek to make something of his life. He’s been living off his brother’s money, and although it’s rankled, he’s done it anyway. Now he’s nearing midlife with little to show.

Wilder has been a Cherry Creek resident for a while. He’s settled in and runs a gluten-free bakery (that made me cringe as much as Robert the goat’s antics but I’ve never tried it so I guess I should add it to my adventures in food…) Wilder’s story isn’t easy. Born to deaf parents, he was ostracized because he could hear, and it wasn’t until he went to university that he realized how abused emotionally he’d been. Then he fell into a bad relationship (bad is an understatement) and his life went downhill. But eventually he got out – barely – and he found he loved baking.

Rocco is deaf, so Lorenzo learned to sign at an early age, and was always protective of his little brother. Wilder, of course, learned to sign early as well since he was surrounded by deaf people. Now he needs that skill increasingly.

The attraction isn’t instantaneous, but grows over time. Lorenzo also starts making a few friends in town after a disastrous start. Cherry Creek residents have chosen that location for the simplicity, and a big shot from the city rarely goes over well. But Wilder sees Lorenzo for who he is, and the bond deepens. Then Wilder faces a tragedy and is thrown back into the world where he was never accepted but is now needed. I admired him for being the better man and doing what needed to be done. I don’t think I would have been so forgiving.

There are more books to come and I can say I’m thrilled for it. I’ll also mention Nick Hudson who is doing a great job narrating this series. I’m waiting impatiently for the next audio.

My heart broke, with what these 2 men endured. So happy when they fell for one another, they were meant for each other. Loved the story and narration

This is a great addition to the series. Love in every book is not easy but so worth it at the end. Wilder is deaf but not completely, and he suffered as a kid being the hearing sibling. He has had a hard life but finds a second chance at the bakery. Lorenzo comes to Cherry Creek to find what his brother has. He is the only one in the family who doesn’t think he doesn’t deserve what he has. He wants to find his own way. Both find a complement in each other. I loved the other characters, specially Raphael and my favorite scene was the one with the goat. The narration was also great.

Getting so many feelings for Wilder!

Love Him Steady is the fourth book in the On the Market series. It is a contemporary romance, and it could be read on its own, but I really suggest reading the other books in the series.

I really loved this book. It dealt with some hard issues, especially dealing with toxic family members, but the strength and courage the characters showed in overcoming these issues was wonderful. Both Wilder and Lorenzo are stuck. Wilder is weighed down by the trauma he experienced with both an abusive mother and abusive boyfriend, and Lorenzo is so insecure in his own worth he can’t seem to find any purpose to his life. Meeting each other is exactly what they need to start moving forward with their lives. This story is adorable and heart warming. I love how caring and respectful both men are of each other and how they navigate the difficult parts of their relationship. There’s also a lot of humor and sweetness that helps to soften the angst.

Nick Hudson narrates the audiobook and does a fantastic job. I just love Nick’s voice and thought he was a perfect choice for this book. He voiced all the characters very well, especially considering the range of accents and voices that were needed. The audiobook production was well done and I thoroughly enjoyed my listening experience.
