De: Denise Stone, Kels Stone

Narrado por: CJ Bloom, Jason Clarke

The broodiest goalkeeper in the Premier League meets his match in a radiant knitting influencer in this sexy grumpy/sunshine sports romance by best-selling author duo Kels & Denise Stone.

CAMERON HASTINGS:

I was running from the paparazzi when I crashed into a mystery girl with bright eyes and lavender hair.

All it took was a smile from her, and I was a goner.

We agreed to one night. No strings. No real names.

So imagine my surprise when I discover she’s moving across the hall from me—in another country.

But I don’t have time for distractions, especially after last season.

It doesn’t matter that I’m the best of the best, the only American keeper in the Premier League. I need to prove myself to my new team. I need to give them everything so we have a shot at winning the championship.

But I have a problem.

It was supposed to be one night. But I want more....

DAPHNE QUINN:

I blame it on my Yes Year: finally stepping out of my comfort zone, moving to London, and...Him.

The man I spent that magical evening with. But this version of him, the guy who wears all black and a matching scowl, is nothing like the man I remember.

I do my best to avoid him, instead focusing on creating a real-world safe space for my online knitting community and collecting as many experiences as I can during my stint abroad.

But one neighborly run-in leads to another, and suddenly, I’m catching glimpses of him again.

For the first time in my life, I feel confident enough to play by my own rules. To live my life on my own terms, bullies be damned.

But how do I play to win when I’m facing down a man who protects his heart at all costs?

Close Knit is the first book in The Hastings series, a collection of interconnected standalone sports romances about the Hastings siblings, scions of sports royalty.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The narration is fantastic. CJ and Jason are the perfect Duck and Goose.

The mental health rep was handled with so much care and it depth to the story and made the characters feel even more human and relatable.

And then there’s the romance 😌. This book is charming, funny, filled with found family, swoony, and yes there’s delicious spice 👀.

I laughed, I melted, I cried, and I stayed completely invested the whole way through. Such a genuinely enjoyable listen. If you love romance that’s warm, emotionally aware, and a little spicy, this audiobook is absolutely worth your time!!!
