About This Audiobook

Beth Bolden’s *Savor Me* isn’t just another slow-burn romance—it’s a raw, high-stakes seduction where control and surrender collide. Damon Hess, a man who’s spent years boxing himself into rigid sobriety, isn’t just recovering from his past; he’s weaponizing it. His binary worldview—black or white, love or ruin—shatters the moment he locks eyes with Xander, a man who moves through life with effortless charm and zero apologies. What follows isn’t a gentle unraveling but a deliberate crash, where every touch feels like a dare. Bolden’s prose is tight, her pacing relentless, and the emotional stakes are as intoxicating as the forbidden tension between these two men. This isn’t a story about healing; it’s about the messy, electric rush of losing yourself—and finding something better in the wreckage.

Narrator Wyatt Baker elevates the material with a voice that’s equal parts gravel and silk, perfectly capturing Damon’s simmering frustration and Xander’s infuriatingly relaxed confidence. Baker doesn’t just read the lines—he *feels* them, modulating his tone to convey the push-and-pull of attraction without overplaying the drama. The result is an audiobook that crackles with authenticity, making even the quietest moments feel charged. If you crave romance that refuses to tiptoe around desire, *Savor Me* delivers the kind of intensity that lingers long after the final chapter.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I went into *Savor Me* expecting a standard enemies-to-lovers trope wrapped in queer romance, but Bolden delivers something far grittier. Damon Hess is a character who feels *real*—not just because of his sobriety struggles, but because of his infuriating stubbornness. He’s the kind of man who’d rather burn a bridge than admit he’s wrong, and watching him unravel (literally and figuratively) next to Xander is a masterclass in tension. Wyatt Baker’s narration sells it, his voice dripping with the kind of honeyed menace that makes Damon’s one-liners feel like foreplay. The chemistry between the two leads is palpable, though I wished Xander’s internal monologue weren’t quite so *perfect*—sometimes his calm demeanor teetered into saintly territory, robbing him of a little much-needed friction. That said, the production is flawless. The quiet stretches between arguments feel deliberate, the pacing never lags, and Baker’s performance ensures you *feel* every aggravated sigh and loaded silence. My only real critique? The epilogue feels rushed, as if Bolden couldn’t decide how to give these two their happy ending without rushing the emotional payoff. But damn, does it work. By the final chapter, I was a mess—equal parts satisfied and desperate for more. If you’re here for a romance that doesn’t shy away from messy, complicated love, this audiobook is a knockout.
