Running his family's sheep station is everything to Jules, until he meets Liam the rehab specialist hired to help Jules' father. The unexpected possibility of love that makes two men want to work harder and risk more to be together.
From the blurb:
I am Mackenzie Country born and bred. Farming the high country runs in my blood, like my father, and his father, and my great grandfather before him. My future has been mapped out for me since the day I was born. Or at least it was, until Liam Skelton walks onto Lane Station, lights a fire in my heart, and turns my whole world upside down.
Bossy, tatted, and out and proud, Liam is everything my father abhors.
And I want him.
Badly.
But having a chance with Liam means risking everything. My family. My future. And my life in these mountains that I love. Still, the heart wants what it wants, and mine wants Liam.
With so many things against us, maybe we don't have a chance.
Maybe we'll crash and burn.
Or maybe we’ll find a way to have it all.
Lesetiger's review:
The Science of Attraction is the third book in the Mackenzie Country series. You can read this book as a standalone, but I read the other two volumes first. I found it more enjoyable because I had already gotten to know and love most of the characters in the previous volumes.
This time it's about Julian, Jules for short, the son who has taken over the station after his father's stroke. Paddy is a father who hasn't made it easy for his first-born son Zach after he came out. Due to Paddy's illness, he needs a private rehab specialist. This is Liam and since they are both at the farm, Jules quickly gets to know Liam. It was entertaining to read how Liam pushed Jules' father Paddy to his limits. Liam is openly gay and he knows how to deal with Jules' father. But he awakens feelings in Jules that he's never had before.
I love it when a character finds their true self and can live it. That's why I liked Jules and Liam's story so much. I really like these two likeable characters and it was great to see how their relationship developed. The author has created interesting secondary characters that I really liked. All in all, a fascinating story about the family dynamics of the Lane family who experience many ups and downs over the course of the series.
The story is entertaining and emotional and it got super exciting towards the end. Another highlight for me is the setting - I love the mountains, the landscape, the farm. The author has described it all in such detail and wonderfully that I quickly found myself in the Australian highlands.
Although I've already read the book, I was really looking forward to the audiobook because Gary Furlong's performance is absolutely fantastic! He gave each character a suitable voice and I was able to distinguish between them very well. He read in a very lively and entertaining way, so it was a pleasure to relive the story of Jules and Liam. I thought the book was already very good, but the audiobook makes the story an experience I wouldn't want to miss.
I can't get enough of this series and am happy to recommend it!
