Enjoyed

Except for the kind of cheesy sex language in the bedroom that get a bit awkward and maybe realistic for two people who are feeling each other out and one who is doing this all for the first time I enjoyed it. I also didn’t get super invested in the characters HEA but I liked the two lost souls spending a wintry storm together and figuring things out.

Emotional Age-Gap

A great start to what looks to be a promising new series. David and Aaron are each a little broken in their own way and unsure about their future. David is divorcing his wife of many years and just starting to com to terms with his sexuality, and Aaron is coming out of a relationship, recently graduated and not sure what he's going to do with his future. When they meet they have an instant attraction but with so much baggage can they really make it work. The narrator did a great performance on this one and truly enhanced the story, I voluntarily reviewed a gifted copy of this audiobook.

Beautiful and sexy!

This audiobook bitch slapped me wide awake. I fell into a rut listening to only to my favorite narrators.
Boys and Girls' this one wont disappoint.

It's beautiful and straightforward the reason why F.E. Feeley Jr. and Vance Bastian is going to the top of my list of new interests. I will for-sure be listening to this series. I fell in love with both main characters and secondary characters.

The story line is not really new but the injection of unique personalities and background made me attach instantly. The sex scenes were crazy hot and the build up to it was perfection.

I recommend this series if you like hot sexy older men being rescued by a younger sexy intelligent men with a law degree and PTSD.
Happy Listening

Just okay

I was not crazy about the narrator at first but he slowly grew on me. The story was just okay. That being said I will be listening to book 2 to give it another shot.

You really colored my heart and my happiness

OMG! 😱 OMG! 😱 I should have listened to Trio and listened this sooner because boy, that was stellar! ❤️ Seriously, truth be told, when I started listening this audio, I thought it might take a day or two to finish. What I didn’t think was that this audio would be unputdownable. 😅 Seriously guys, I listened this in one sitting. I was simply blown away. 😳

David is going through a brutal divorce. He found out that his wife has been sexting with his best friend and it wasn’t even the root of his marital problems. Over the years, they’ve been drifting apart. And there’s the issue of his sexuality. He’s always been faithful to his wife but he’s always been attracted to other guys. So he’s either gay or at least bi. And he just reluctantly accepted it himself. And he has decided to finally serve his wife with the divorce papers and planned to spend the first night alone in his office. Nobody needed to know his sorrows. Suddenly, he heard the most beautiful voice singing around his office. And when he finally saw the man the song is coming from, the young man is as beautiful as the song he’s been singing. Aaron has been lost, drifting .. not knowing what to do or where to go. He’s been running from his past and now, he’s back in his hometown Detroit, working as a janitor just to pay the most basic necessities. In order to move forward, he has to let his past go and he doesn’t know how to. When he met the gray haired silver fox in the firm he’s been cleaning for the past couple weeks, he knew they were attracted to each other. The older man seems so lonely and sad and he just wanted to console his sorrows for a night. And of course, get some pleasure for himself. But David is a lot more than just a sexy silver fox. There’s a kind, caring, loving but lonely man beneath his cooperate facade. And when they are snowed in for days from a sudden snowstorm, both men realized that they don’t need to go through this alone since they have each other.

Beautiful, poignant, mesmerizing and simply breathtaking. 💜 I simply couldn’t put this audio down for a minute. Two lonely, sad men from very different worlds (or are they? 😉) found the happiness, love and acceptance in each other arms. 😍 It was just a gorgeous love story to witness. I also loved the fact that despite Aaron being the younger guy, he’s actually the mentor in this relationship since our David was a “virgin”. 😂 And boy, was that cherry popping smoking hot or what?!?!?!?! 🔥🔥🔥 Damn, I swear I could listen Vance Bastian saying “baby” all day long. This is my very first book from F.E. Feeley Jr. and I’m soooooooooo sooooooooooooo impressed! 😱👏 The romance and all the feels! 😳🥰 It really isn’t easy to write a simple contemporary love story that beautiful, that poignant, that breathtaking and that emotional. ❤️ Really, kudos to F.E. Feeley Jr. for writing such an extraordinary story. 👏 I AM hooked! 😁 I will be starting book 2 immediately because I need me more Aaron and David in my life. 😉💜😘

Not black and white

This is a new author to me and I’m glad I took the plunge to snag this audio. I could relate to Aaron who is well-educated but lost. He knows he’s not up for some challenges and instead of taking any big risks at this point in his life, he opts for something safe. I have respect for someone who can recognize his need to re-evaluate his life and make changes. He’s crammed a lot of living into the first twenty-six years, for sure. Being ex-military is tough. Having a clingy ex is a challenge. Taking on student debt? Well, many of us know what that feels like.

David is also an interesting character. He’s in the process of ending a twenty-year marriage and there’s a lot of pain there. Also there is uncertainty as to where his life is heading now. He’s successful, but is that enough to carry him? He isn’t sure. Then he meets a dynamic young man who shows him there’s another way to live.

The people in Aaron’s life are amazing. Through his personality, people feel protective of him and are therefore leery of whether this new guy is good enough. David doesn’t shirk the responsibility of proving he’s worthy. He embraces it, showing he cares about Aaron. He wasn’t sure he was gay, but after a weekend with Aaron, he’s ready to embrace that part of himself.

Into the Gray takes place over just a couple of days so there is an element of insta-love, but it works. These two men are each at a crossroad in their lives and when the right person arrives, they’re willing to seize the opportunity to fall in love. It doesn’t solve all their problems, but it does go a long way to bringing them a sense of peace and happiness. Overall, I enjoyed the book.

Vance Bastian is a narrator I’ve listened to before and I’ve always enjoyed his performances. He doesn’t have a very deep voice but that works with these two characters. He also handles all the women as well as the older men with aplomb. This was a great listen.

fantastic start to series

Into the Gray is the first book in The Color of Love series by F.E. Feeley Jr. It is well-written and attention keeping... filled with interesting characters, humor, emotion and heat. David and Aaron - the chemistry between them is heated...They lure you into their story and you never want them to let you go. Excited for more in this series.

Vance Bastian narrates this wonderful story and does a fantastic job. The voice work fits well with the characters' perso alities and helps the listener become immersed in the tale. Great performance.

Easy Going, romantic fun Story

I loved this book! A tiny bit of angst, lots of “firsts” and a happy ending. The characters are interesting, and easy to fall in love with. I hope the author expands their story into a multi-book series. They are so fun and interesting. The sex isn’t bad either!
