Publisher's Summary:
He's hot. He's dangerous. And he can't remember anything.
As the owner of Apple'n Pies, Joe Applin leads a quiet, uneventful life, content to spend his days serving customers who come from all over to eat his delicious homemade pies. Along with his motley crew - Bea, Elsie, and Donnie - Joe couldn't be happier in his little kingdom of baked goods and java.
Experience has taught Joe that love is overrated - and at times dangerous. He has no intention of repeating past mistakes. But then he meets a mysterious, handsome man with amnesia, and Joe can't deny something sweet is in the works. He isn't one to take risks, not with his heart and certainly not with his life, but the more time he spends with the man he knows as Tom, the closer he is to losing both.

Wonderful!
I read this as an ebook first and I'm so glad I bought the audiobook version! The narration of it was great and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the story, I would highly recommend this one :)
Funny, sweet, solid narration
When I read these Dreamspun Desires I have to remember that its a little bit like going in the way back machine (anyone remember that reference?) and to a time when readers were a bit less concerned with probability or realism or well you get the idea.
So, we set suspend our disbelief and we embrace our love for ooey gooey love stories and viola! you have a Dreamspun Desire book!
In this case, there is a super sweet baker named Joe who has a little pie shop in Manhattan (first suspension of disbelief) where he lives and works with some crazy folks and sells a lot of pies but hes very lonely. Hes been hurt in the past and doesnt ever leave his apartment for fun (2nd suspension).
One day he hears a scuffle in the garden in the back and finds an injured man who tells him No police, no hospital so he takes him upstairs to his apartment so he can heal. (3rd suspension)
Once he awakens, the mystery man (later called Tom) cant remember his name or job but he has a bunch of other memories like movies, sexual preferences, the fact that hes not involved in a relationship.
Over time the two grow close, some other crazy stuff happens with the folks who are after Tom and another amazing co-incidence occurs (4th suspension).
Now, dont think I didnt like this story, because I did but I really had to remember that it wasnt supposed to be real. It was fun, cute, lovey dovey (which I adore) and sweet.
If youre in the mood for real, keep looking, but if you want a light-hearted escape from reality with fun characters and sweet moments this is the book for you!

John Solo is a frequent choice for this genre and he definitely knows his way around a story. He is good at pacing, emotion and smexy times. I like his deep voice and most of the time, I find him easy to listen to. For the most part this was a good narration, my only issue was Bea she sounded more like a wizened sailor than an older lady friend. All in all this is a good way to experience this story.
