A Prayer Away | Men Being Too Intimate

Chapters 1-3 Recap | Hey You, Lifeguard (Author-Narrated)

Gay M/M Audio Drama | Hey You, Lifeguard Chapters 1-3 Recap | Author-Narrated Before the summer opening party begins, return to Hotel Sol for the full pool day in chronological order. One same day at Hotel Sol. Three different points of view. One pool where every look means something different depending on who sees it. Caio starts the morning behind Barraca Sol, riding past the valet roof and into the staff side of the hotel. He fixes the stand, banters with Bento, and notices the new lifeguard before the uniform even goes on. Tiago arrives for his first shift, takes the chair above the deep side, and learns the pool from above. From there, the deck becomes routes, rules, water, guests, and the places where people forget to pay attention. Then Juan arrives through the front entrance, where the valet already knows his name, Marcelo knows his usual row, and the pool still follows the rhythm he expects. But this day does not stay usual. Juan notices Tiago. Caio notices Juan noticing Tiago. Tiago keeps looking back toward Barraca Sol. A dive changes the angle. A sunbed moves closer. A burger order is remembered before it is spoken. Cola becomes water. And by lunch, the same table holds all three of them. — 🛟About Hey You, Lifeguard☀️ A summer story set in Rio de Janeiro, Hey You, Lifeguard follows one day at Hotel Sol through three different points of view. Tiago is the new lifeguard learning the pool from above. Caio works behind Barraca Sol, watching more than he admits. Juan is the returning regular who knows exactly how to be seen. Same pool. Same day. Three different versions of what happened. As the day turns into the summer opening party, every glance, order, and invitation starts to feel less casual than it should. — 🎵 Official Music - Hey You, Lifeguard: ⁠⁠⁠https://youtu.be/mjtu6uY3oZk⁠⁠⁠ [https://youtu.be/mjtu6uY3oZk]  🎵 Official Music - Barraca Sol: ⁠⁠https://youtu.be/T9xejxrQMIs⁠⁠ [https://youtu.be/T9xejxrQMIs]  🎵 Official Music - Hot Bodies Come Outl: ⁠https://youtu.be/RGueGoKAK7E⁠ [https://youtu.be/RGueGoKAK7E]  — ✨ More ways to stay connected I’ve opened a no-paywall space on Substack.A cozy corner for behind-the-scenes content and additional stories:https://byalexo.substack.com/ — © 2026 Gay Audio Books.

What We Don’t Name | Men Being Too Intimate

An INTJ (Sebastian) - controlled, exacting, and built around precision. A man who moves with purpose, holds the line, and never allows anything to fall out of place. An ISFJ (Noah) - observant, contained, and grounded in what must be maintained. A man who keeps things running, holds what isn’t seen, and never lets the system slip. This was Sebastian and Noah. And somewhere between the stage, the silence, and the space neither of them stepped out of… something crossed the line. It wasn’t spoken. It wasn’t planned. And once it moved… it didn’t stay contained. They held it. They controlled it. They kept it where it belonged. Until they didn’t. — 🎵 What We Don’t Name Original Soundtrack: https://youtu.be/hc-T0ewZnwc [https://youtu.be/hc-T0ewZnwc]  — Men Being Too Intimate, Novel Series Exclusively on Amazon.

Chapter 3 | Hey You, Lifeguard (Author-Narrated)

Gay M/M Audio Drama | Hey You, Lifeguard Chapter 3 | Author-Narrated Juan arrives at Hotel Sol through the front entrance, where the valet already knows his name, Marcelo knows his usual row, and the pool still follows the rhythm he expects. He knows where to sit, how to be seen, and exactly what Caio will remember when he steps up to Barraca Sol. Then he notices the new lifeguard. Tiago watches the pool from above with a control Juan cannot read quickly, so Juan starts changing the angle. He crosses to the diving lane, swims to the wall below the chair, moves his sunbed closer, and invites Tiago to lunch at exactly the right time. At least, that is how Juan wants the day to look. Caio still remembers his burger before he orders it. Tiago keeps looking back toward Barraca Sol. And when Juan changes his usual cola to water, Caio notices immediately. — 🛟About Hey You, Lifeguard☀️ A summer story set in Rio de Janeiro, Hey You, Lifeguard follows one day at Hotel Sol through three different points of view.

A Prayer Away | Men Being Too Intimate

A prayer that didn’t change it. A moment that didn’t stay contained. And a feeling that followed him out. Some things don’t begin with a choice. Some only become real once they’re named. An ESFJ (Gabriel) - structured, outwardly steady, and shaped by what is expected of him. A man who keeps things in place, moves with intention, and holds himself to what he believes is right. An INFP (Daniel) - internal, searching, and unwilling to ignore what remains. A man who doesn’t move until something matters, but once it does, he doesn’t step away from it. This was Gabriel and Daniel. And somewhere between the court, the quiet, and the moment neither of them stopped… something crossed into the open. It wasn’t planned. It wasn’t held back. And once it happened, it didn’t leave. He tried to push it down. He tried to pray it out. But some things don’t disappear just because they’re spoken. — 🎵 A Prayer Away Original Soundtrack: https://youtu.be/zlpLsqaZwkQ [https://youtu.be/zlpLsqaZwkQ] — Men Being Too Intimate, Novel Series Exclusively on Amazon.

Chapter 2 | Hey You, Lifeguard (Author-Narrated)

Gay M/M Audio Drama | Hey You, Lifeguard Chapter 2 | Author-Narrated Caio arrives at Hotel Sol from the back of the building, far from the valet line, the glass doors, and the guests who hand over their keys. At Barraca Sol, he knows the morning by rhythm: buns, fries, paper sleeves, cola bottles, grill heat, Bento’s mouth, and regulars who always come back with the same orders. Then the new lifeguard steps onto the deck. From behind the counter, Caio sees Tiago before the chair, before the whistle, before the uniform turns him into someone the whole pool starts watching. And when Juan returns to the sunbeds, the day stops being simple. Because Juan is not just a regular. And Caio keeps correcting Bento every time he calls him an X(ex). — 🛟About Hey You, Lifeguard☀️ A summer story set in Rio de Janeiro, Hey You, Lifeguard follows one day at Hotel Sol through three different points of view.
