About this listen
Jackson
Now that Leland’s decided to give up his life as a hitman and take a walk on the mild side, we’ve been enjoying a simple life of taking down bad guys the legal way. I didn’t know he would be just as reckless as a PI, but it’s not my fault if I happen to enjoy helping him hunt down the occasional criminal. If only I could keep the house from being overrun by Leland’s gun shrine - or stop him from making our cases “more exciting” by terrorizing people into confessing. Overall, life seems perfect, right?
Wrong.
We’ve been called in to investigate a suspicious murder committed by someone claiming to be the Sandman. When we find a note on the victim’s body, we realize that this could ruin our lives forever.
Leland:
I wasn’t involved in the murder. It might look like my writing and my note, but I wouldn’t do that to Jackson -especially after I promised him that I wouldn’t take a hit ever again. At least, not without telling him. I’m finally starting to learn that we’re stronger together, and I’m not going to jeopardize that.
Luckily for both of us, this copycat doesn’t know who he’s dealing with. Game’s on, fake Sandman. You think you can mess with me? Well, maybe you can, but that’s beside the point, because I will protect Jackson no matter what, even if I almost drown him in the process. (Really, that wasn’t my fault. He should learn how to swim better.)
This audiobook contains: Disco ball piñata, camping with Sasquatch, an acrobatic housekeeper named “Mr. Cleanyface”, a questionable massage table, weapons everywhere, Jackson’s nemesis - the fence, a turkey showdown, aerial silk antics, a reappearance of Blow-up Randy, over-the-top body armor, too many hitmen, and so many emotions that Leland’s chest might explode. This is the second book in a series - while you could listen and enjoy it on its own, you really should listen to The Hitman’s Guide to Making Friends and Finding Love for maximum enjoyment.

Such a fun filled book.
I haven't laughed so much since the last Hitmams Guide.
Alice Winters knows how to make her characters come to life and Michael really added the final touches.
Comedy is written throughout this book, with loving touches and maybe a few deaths. You really can't describe this book, it's one you have to read or listen to, to really appreciate it. Having read and then listened to them, I have a big silly grin on my face. I probably look a little manic just like the MC. Such a great book/audio.

The past comes back...with a vengeance!
I love these characters created by Alice Winters and brought to life by the very talented Michael Ferraiuolo (one of my favourite narrators). This continues from the story in the first book, although it could, in theory, be read as a stand-alone. I love the quirkiness of Leland as he settles into helping his boyfriend Jackson at his Detective Agency. This story has all the hilarity and thrilling hi-jinks that I've come to expect from these books. Highly recommended entertainment for lovers of action-adventure contemporary MM romance.

I've never laughed so hard with a book before.
So funny, at times I was nearly choking. Even though I think the first book was better, this one had me laughing with tears. I love dry humour. At the scene where they were trying to put the bulletproof pants on Jackson as Henry walked in, I honestly thought I was going to suffocate from laughing. I recommend the books, definitely. I'm off to listen to the 3rd one now.

Leland is so ridiculously funny and I love him so
5 Stars!
So, I had read this book on KU after I finished The Hitman's Guide 1 and I loved it almost as much as that one, especially that last chapter, so of course, I had to get it in audio as soon as it came out.
Leland has got to be one of my favorite characters ever. He's just so ridiculously funny and charismatic. I was laughing so much during the book at his antics. I usually listen to audiobooks late at night to avoid interruptions, but it wasn't easy to stifle my laughs at 3am because I didn't want to wake up everyone here. Jackson was just so perfect for Leland. He was steadfast and supportive, going along with every one of Leland's schemes. He really stood no chance once he was in Leland's hooks, no matter how much Henry wanted to steer him towards the new guy at the precinct. Hahahahaha!
Henry is the perfect father figure for both of them and Jackson's mom is the perfect villain, LOL.
The narration was perfection, Michael Ferraiuolo has this knack for comedy that suits Leland to a T and his Jackson's voice had me swooning all over the place.
Hitman's Guide II was just amazing, fun and interesting and hilarious and intriguing and I swear I could read/listen to Leland and Jackson's adventures and never get tired of them.
Frankly, this is now one of my top series ever and if you have the chance to listen to the audiobooks, you really have to. There's just nothing like listening to Michael performing these amazingly hilarious books by Alice Winters.

Awesome
Michael Ferraiuolo's narration is as sublime as ever - he really brings Leland (especially!) to life. Even though I've read and listened to this before, I was still laughing out loud.
Love it.

How can it be just as good as 1
I love this book, Leland doesn’t need a gun his wit can slay anyone. And Michael Ferraiuolo Narration is perfect as always. I’ve listened to this twice now already.
Oh and Castle, please say he has a book with Jer Bear lol xx
