Resumen del Editor

A new standalone hockey romance from USA Today best seller Sarina Bowen.

On the eve of her 30th birthday, sports agent Bess Beringer is ready to make some changes. Armed with a five-year plan - indexed and color coded - she’ll tackle her personal life with the same zeal that she brings to her successful agency.

A big, tall, ripped hunk of hockey player who’s just been traded to the Brooklyn Bruisers is not a part of that plan. Mark “Tank” Tankiewicz has a lot of baggage. He’s a ride-or-die loner with a bad reputation. He’s on the rebound. He’s also the sexiest thing on two legs, and for some crazy reason it’s Bess that he wants.

She knows better. But then she falls stupid in love with him anyway. And for a while it seems like maybe he’ll do the same.

Until she asks him for the one thing he can never give her...

great book

Loved this story. It was definitely couldnt put it down for me. The story was so fast pace and it never got to a "slow" part for me.

Bess and Tank’s Plan

For me this was a good 4.5 stars. I have to admit some of my reservations was having a baby in her plan. A baby is her chance to be the good she knows she’s capable of. It is just not my thing, but I still adore Bess. She took the hand she was dealt growing up and made a career for herself. In some ways that sacrificed her personal life, but in others, she had a great professional one.

When she first meets Tank, they are both young and a bit impulsive. A decade later, they still have that chemistry.

I didn’t expect Tank to be that emotionally ruined by his former marriage. Men’s feelings can be complicated and Tank was definitely that. Yet, he was all in with Bess. Exploring his feelings for her and what he went through is pretty important to convey here.

Sarina writes this book in a way that feels a little more True North than Brooklyn and I love that. It’s marred, but beautiful. What a universe she makes with these characters. (Love Zara and Dave’s appearance!)

Another great thing about this was how we have a couple that really makes a choice in being together. It’s important.

Emma Wilder is stellar. Jacob Morgan is amazing. Tim Paige’s guest spots were a fantastic touch.

Overall a wonderful audiobook. Worth the queso.

it was okay!

the story was good it was a little slow in spots but anything that Jacob Morgan narrates is so sexy and amazing makes up for anything that's missing in the story! The fact that they we're willing to help foster kids such a great premise!

Love this series

Another great hockey book! Bowin writes sweet, relatable, spicy, romantic stories. I recommend all her books.

Omg grab some tissue...

The best in an already great series !!! SB has great wit and timing and a unique style and she really put herself into this story you can feel it in her words. The pull between Mark and Bess is everything and exactly what every women dreams of feeling. Mark is also the perfect blend of confidence sensitivity humor and humility. If you’ve read SB before and if you’ve already read this series you will love this book. But I’m serious have some tissue nearby their struggle to love is both heart squeeze-y and heart break-y. But worth it.

Terrible Spanish

Good book, but the Spanish toward the end was terribly stiff and formal and the accent was awful. Might’ve been good to have someone who speaks Spanish help with the writing (and narrating).

Another Amazing Novel from Sarina Bowen

Sarina's novels always have such heart, sprinkled liberally with a dose of humor, and Sure Shot is no different. I love that we got a chance to hear Bess' story as well as to meet a new member of the Bruisers. And, my favorite, laugh-out-loud line: "He's the Donald Trump of hockey!"

Sure Shot checked all the boxes for me

Sarina Bowen's hockey romances are like my favorite candy bar- as soon as I have my hands on one, I absolutely devour it! Sure Shot checked all the boxes for me- sizzling chemistry, hilarious dialog, and heart-tugging moments. Bess and Tank's second chance takes place 9 years later- Tank is quite the misunderstood grumpy athlete and Bess has made a name for herself as a sports agent. I loved getting to read about the sports agent world- it was fascinating! I found this story to be quite emotional, and I teared up reading the story of Tank's broken marriage. When the reason was revealed, it certainly wasn't what I thought it would be, and I though the author handled the sensitive situation so well. Although Sure Shot can be read as a standalone, readers will want to enjoy the whole Bruisers Hockey universe as we always get to keep up with past characters in new installments. I just hope this series never ends! Narrators Jacob Morgan and Emma Wilder were fantastic and perfectly cast.

4 sure shot 🌟

I love second chance at romance story. Sure Shot gives all of the feels without being overly angsty.
Also, Jacob Morgan and Emma Wilder do a bang up job on the narration.

Worth listening too!

I have so enjoyed all of Ms. Bowen’s books that I have listened to and this one was pretty good!

I would recommend reading David’s book first so you can meet Bess. It will make this book even better for you.

Why can’t Jacob Morgan just do all the male narration? He has to be one of my favorite narrators his voice makes this books even better! Emma Wilder is a little to breath before me but not bad.
