Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Brought up in a relatively small town in Hertfordshire, C F White managed to do what most other residents try to do and fail—leave.

She eventually settled for pie and mash, cockles and winkles and a bit of Knees Up Mother Brown to live in the East End of London; securing a job and creating a life, a home and a family.

After her second son was born with a rare disability, C F White’s life changed and brought pen back to paper having written stories as a child but never the confidence to show them to the world. Now, having embarked on this writing journey, she can’t stop. So strap in, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Great story!

What I love most about the story is how much love has prevailed. No matter what Jay and Seb go through, you know they love each other through and through.

I am actually reading this series in reverse order; why? Because I came across the 3rd story; read it, without knowing the author; thought I try it out; loved it.

Knowing the end of it--assuming it is only 3 book series (hopefully not)--did not diminish this one, since I already knew Seb & Jay; made this story even better!

Now, on to to the beginning, lol. ;-)

Ripped my heart out & put it back together

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 22, 2020

Having listened to the previous book in this series, I went into this one prepared for angst. Thankfully, in the midst of angst, confusion, fear, and Seb's continuing self-esteem issues, (which are mostly due to a couple reappearing villains who I'd be happy to see thrown off a cliff), there are also truly funny moments, sexy moments, and wonderfully sweet moments.
Jay seemed a bit more self-assured in this book than the previous, but he had his moments of understandable wallowing during separation & justifiable bitterness about people in football who are reluctant for him to be out.
As for Seb, oh man, Seb. Just as in the last book, I wanted to wrap him up in a hug & tell him how much more he's worth than he's been led to believe, that he's not just a great musician, but a decent person worthy of love. Thank goodness that he's got Jay & his bandmates to keep him from throwing himself into the abyss. Seb's bandmates, along with Jay's family & best friend. (who is also also his neighbor & ex-girlfriend in one), provide a good deal of comic relief and, as friends often do, keep the two leads from doing something stupid from time to time.
I will definitely be looking for more of C.F. White's work, going beyond this series.
So far as the narration for the audio, Piers Ryman is fantastic with expressing emotion & his pacing is good. One unfortunate bit about this book for him is that he is not terribly skilled at voicing Americans/New Yorkers, and there are some in this story. His voice for one of the female Americans in particular made me shake my head. Thank goodness that they're minor characters and not present at all times, Overall voice differentiation was decent and I appreciated that they were consistent with the previous book. During the first chunk of the book, Seb & Jay are on opposite chores & chapters begin with a quick line of where things are taking place. However, once they are in the same country, perspective periodically changes mid-chapter. Ryman did pause between these changes, but sometimes it still took me a moment of context to figure out whose head I was in. However, again, the emotion that came through the narration and the pacing were fantastic, in my opinion, and I wouldn't hesitate in buying a book with him narrating; (well, maybe if all the characters are American women, I'd pause..)

Great addition to the District Line series

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 30, 2018

This second in the District Line series continues Seb and Jay's story, which ended in quite the cliffy for book one. I loved this pair in Kick Off, particularly Seb and his snark, and they are so good together that I had some expectations for where I thought this book would go. Rather, I knew where I hoped it would go, so to say I was excited to read this one would be an understatement. Happily, I wasn't disappointed.
The fun-loving Seb is more serious this time and dare I say it, almost mopey, but given the circumstances, it's understandable and my heart broke for him as he goes through the motions of each day while secretly yearning for Jay. And Jay! Our sweet Jay has done some growing up, but he's still got that touch of innocence about him. At least until he needs to get tough - one of my favorite parts of the story. Both of these guys frustrated me at different times throughout the book, but I still couldn't help but love them and want to see them together.
The big issues here are Jay's struggle with coming out and Seb's fear of standing on his own without his father's support. While Seb's father is still a big part of that problem, it's more abstract as Stephen steps up his game to keep Seb for himself. Break Through does end with more hope than its predecessor, but it's a bit open-ended and we'll have to wait and see what's next for this relationship. This pair does have great chemistry and they are nothing short of scorching hot together, so this reader will be anxiously awaiting the rest of their story.

Jay the footballer (soccer). Just signed up with the big leagues in England.

Sebastian (Seb). Rich man’s son turned rocker.

Their opposites attract romance is succeeding despite many obstacles.

Love the characters, hot, sexy and versatile scenes.

Loved It, But Want Final Part Now!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 20, 2018

Verified Purchase

Having enjoyed the first part of this trilogy, had put off reading part 2 simply because I like to have the completion of a story before I start - not one for being kept waiting! However, having read something pretty rubbish, I was looking for something that I knew would be well written, so despite knowing there was still a part 3 to be released (hopefully before the end of 2018 according to the author), I dived in. Slight spoilers follow, so be warned:
Now, part 1 left the reader on a bit of a downer, Seb flying off to NYC and leaving Jay behind. Part 2 kicked off a few months later, Seb miserable in NYC & Jay working his way to be being noticed & then being employed by the Hammers (West Ham for the uninitiated) and rather miserable too. Now at various points, I did have WTF moments (Seb's mother's rather fortunate reappearance and a rather accommodatingly tolerant captain & manager - it's set in 2007/8), but I couldn't help but enjoy it. Seb's character, though rather irritating, did invoke compassion and Jay was more likeable than in part one. It was also fun and made me laugh at various points, certainly leaving me with a smile on my face.
So, not quite 5*, more like 4.5 rounded up to 5, purely for it being a middle segment & wanting the final part NOW!

Amazing

Book 2 in the District Line series and what a series this is shaping up to be. I completely fell in love with Jay and Seb in the first book and I was once again enraptured with their story. Testament to the writing I felt everything they were going through, highs and lows and there are definitely plenty of both. I was totally invested in the romance between Jay and Seb, its very real and authentic and kept me turning page after page.
