About this listen
Lex can’t stand Theo. Theo thinks Lex is a dick. Except one dating app mishap is about to bring them so much closer together.
Theo: I’ve dated every shade of shitty guy imaginable, yet I keep boyfriending them. Mostly because my empty house doesn’t align with the happily-ever-after fantasies I’ve had since I was a kid.
No more. After my last boyfriend cheated on me, I’m flings only, even if temptation dangles my way. And when Lex shows up to fix my wiring issue, he’s pure temptation—at least until he decides to randomly hate my guts. Luckily, the sexy guy I’m talking to on the CoffeeDates app is the perfect chance for a one-night stand—no drama, no betrayal, and most importantly, no boyfriending.
LexI: Avoid rich assholes at all costs. One broken engagement later, I learned they’ll never stick around for blue collar guys like me. Even though Theo flips my switches, the holier-than-thou upper-class attitude is enough that I’m keeping my distance. Until I find out the guy I’ve been falling hard for over the dating app is none other than Theo. All that chemistry between us explodes, and one night turns into another and then another. But he’s not looking for a boyfriend, and I am—and there’s only so long this can last before one of us ends up brokenhearted.

Story
After my dad moved to a retirement community, he left me with the big, old house I grew up in and a whole lot of loneliness. I thought by now I’d be settled down, but no one’s looking for the guy who likes long hikes with his dog, stargazing, and fixing shit around the house. They want fun, entertaining, flashy—not me. Except when I give Rhys my private line for an emergency house call, I show up for the job to discover it’s a date. It seems like I might’ve met the one man on earth who’s just as interested as I am—if only we can find the guts to admit it.

Story
A thousand years ago, my great-something uncle founded the Collective, a secret organization dedicated to protecting humanity from demons. The hunter tradition has been passed down over the generations, from parent to child, secure in the knowledge that the Collective is a community of safety and knowledge. But betrayal sucks, and six years ago, it turned my world—and the Collective—upside down. After generations of deception, the hunters left behind are picking up the pieces and trying something we’ve never done before—working side by side with our enemy.

It’s definitely not because of Lewis Hunter, his extremely demanding, staggeringly rude...and breathtakingly gorgeous boss.

And while he may be a historian, not a treasure hunter, he thinks he does a pretty good job of living up to the Sawyer name. He's a book-smart research fanatic and does his best work at his tidy desk. No fedora and whip for him, if you please—a nice cup of coffee and a comfy chair will do. But decoding an ancient relic soon gives him more adventure than he bargained for.

Electric
This is the second book in the Hot Under The Collar series and it is as fun as the first. Theo who works in finance, is always finding the wrong partners so is going to do only hook ups. He is a germaphobe, purchased a large older home, tries to be the peacekeeper in his family or friends group, and is lonely. Lex is best friends with Cole since forever. He is an electrician just moved back to town. He has not had the best luck romantically and his ex fiancé is the worst. Theo has lights in his home flickering and Cole suggests Lex take a look. These two mix like oil and water after their first introduction. Since they hang with the same friends group they are always seeing each other. This is their story from enemies to more, it’s steamy and funny.

Sweet and steamy
I really enjoyed this. I love enemies to lovers especially when they fall in love (or like) anonymously. it was sweet, steamy and fun. The characters were easy to like and the narrator was good, not a lot of variety in his voices but enough to make it clear who was speaking. My only complaint was that he overdid the sultry tone sometimes but overall it was an easy and fun listen!
I will say I was annoyed that the cover model in no way matched either MC. There was absolutely no mention of Theo being black or mixed, none of the descriptions of him mentioned dark skin, and in fact mention pink skin tone on him more than once.. I know they can't always get a model that matches correctly, but if you're going to have diversity on the cover, PLEASE actually give us that diversity in the book! I always look for books with diverse characters so this felt like a bait and switch.
That criticism aside, I enjoyed this book a lot and can't wait for Liam and Ollie's story!

Good book
This was a good book. I enjoyed the hate to like/like to hate the Lex and Theo have with each other. Assumptions are made when these two meet, and it makes for them to fight the chemistry they have. Once these two finally sit down and work their all their issues and are ready to admit that they love each other, these to have a funny yet sweet HEA. I thought Dylan Rockwell did a good join bringing Lex and Theo alive for us.
I received an audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Hot Indeed, Sweet Too! Terrific Story & Listen🎧
Katherine McIntyre delivers some more 'Hot Under the Collar' greatness in this second book of the series and she turns up the heat, too. This is a fantastic enemies-to-lovers, opposites attract, romance, the story drew me right in and captivated my attention straight to the end. Lex and Theo make assumptions about each based on their own history and experience, assumptions that are completely off-base. The banter between these two is amazing, and you would almost think it was foreplay, well maybe it is because the chemistry between them is undeniable and when the unexpected happens, we see how explosive it can be. The unexpected was them chatting with each on a dating app, unknowingly, until they decide to meet in person and then the hot fun really begins. I enjoyed how everything played out in this book, the writing, plot and world building are fantastic, as are the character growth and development. I love how realistic and relatable the characters are and it is great to get to know them. There is never a dull moment, and the story has the perfect balance of drama, angst, heartfelt emotions and steamy romance. Katherine McIntyre, thank you for another great story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧 Dylan Rockwell continues to do a great job portraying the characters, humanizing them with their personality and their emotions. I like how he takes each role and makes it his own, sounding believable and just as I imagined the characters to sound. He handled the back-and-forth banter with easy and lands the humor and snark effortlessly. Rockwell is a versatile voice artist and his performance makes the story even more enjoyable. Thank you for another great listen.

Book 2 is even better
I listened to books one and two back-to-back. I think I enjoyed book 2 even more. Maybe because I really enjoy a good enemies-to-lovers story. The disgust between Lex and Theo is palatable, but then through circumstances they decide to jump into bed together. They are a hot couple, and it jumps off the page. After listening to the first story, I was ready for another one from Dylan Rockwell. Not sure if it was the words or Rockwell, but felt he was much more engaged this story making it all the more enjoyable.

Passionate Narrating! Spicy 🥵 Can’t Miss Story!
I’ve read this title as just the book and it was fantastic but the audiobook version adds a WHOLE other layer! Dylan Rockwell KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK with his narrating in this book (book 2 of the series) and really gets a handle on the character voices and friend group. He adds a WHOLE NOTHO’ level to the spicy 🌶️ scenes and made this a can’t miss title from kat McIntyre that you’ll want to listen to over and over again! Lex and Theo are just SO hot together and their chemistry is unmatched!

Misunderstandings to correct
Theo and Lex are both smarting after bad relationships and have vowed it's strictly no strings flings for them. When they meet in person, their baggage gets in the way along with some judgemental class differences and they definitely don't hit it off. Each guy is hitting it off with someone on an app, however, and because this is a romance, we know exactly who they will be chatting up on the app, lol. Both of the characters had convincing motives for their initial mistrust and the author does an excellent job of bringing both the steam and a lovely resolution to the complications in their relationship. Dylan Rockwell gives an excellent performance showing these two as they simultaneously do and don't get along.

done right
Beautifully done audiobook where you feel all the sass and snark brought to life. Only in a few parts I felt the voice acting was a little over the top but not enough to take away from the story. If you loved the story you will enjoy the audiobook, definitely worth a listen.

Sweet/Steamy Continuation
I enjoyed this continuation of the series more than the first and I enjoyed that one pretty well. . I loved the whole premise and how the relationship developed it was sweet and steamy, low angst with good narration.
