Sweet Collide

De: Ava Harrison

Narrado por: Christian Fox, Angelina Rocca

From USA Today bestselling author Ava Harrison comes a new standalone hockey romance.

Aiden Slate.
Pro hockey star. Captain of the Redville Saints. And the bane of my existence.

All it takes is a little liquid courage to storm his castle.
Or, in this case, a cushy five-star hotel suite.

I'm supposed to give him a piece of my mind.
To unleash a decade of pent-up anger.

What I'm not supposed to do is sign an NDA meant for another woman.

He thinks I'm here to relieve his stress.
Well, he's in for a rude awakening.

Problem #1? The boy I grew up with doesn't remember me.
Problem #2? I fall to my knees at his command. Literally.

Next thing I know, I agree to be his fake girlfriend.
He doesn't realize I'm the girl he left behind ten years ago.
The last thing I'll do is admit it.

Because Aiden might have abandoned me all those years ago.
But me? I'll forever be his.

Beautiful story of personal growth

Aiden and Pip Forever!!!!

The two come from rocky childhoods and trauma bond, while having big dreams to escape the lives they are living. Aiden’s talents on the ice lead him to be the star NHL player , while it seems he has it all. He’s still dealing with his own issues and trauma from the past.

What was suppose to be one night, turns into fake dating and the two uncovering secrets, and healing on their journey while also getting a second chance at love.

The way I was milking this book, I didn’t want to finish it because I love these characters so much.

First, this isn’t your average Hockey book. It’s packed with so much depth and emotional trauma between the Aiden and “Pip”/Cassidy that you literally feel so invested in their individual stories from start to finish. When the first secret was revealed, it made me so relieved and I love how it didn’t change the way Aiden felt for her. When the second secret was revealed, my heart was shook. I am so happy with how it ended , and literally feel these two are the definition of “soulmates”.

I couldn’t get enough of sexy Aiden. Oh my gosh, the “crawl to me’s”, “good girl”, and “mine” made me blush! Whew! Especially coming from him, I love an MMC who is quiet, mysterious and a little damaged.

Ava did an incredible job at dealing with such emotional topics and was so sensitive in telling this story. I loved how Aiden handled the response to his reveal of his rituals. And especially how “Pip”/Cassidy was the one to help him with normalizing and accepting him for who he is.

I listened to the audiobook for the last half of this book and thought the performance was done really well!

Great read

This was really good… enough story and the perfect amount of spice and the MMC was great. Got me out of my reading slump!!

What a rollercoaster!

Cassidy and Aiden were the only light in each others’ childhoods. She helped him escape hoping he’d come back for her. Years later, fate brings them together again but he doesn’t recognize her. It doesn’t stop her from wanting to be near him again. Together they are the balm to each others’ broken souls. When the truth comes out, will the lies and secrets keep them apart?

This story was so full of tragedy and compassion, strength and redemption. I was hooked!

Angelina Rocca & Christian Fox were fantastic in this audio! They both channelled every emotion from the story and poured them into their performances! So, so good!

Good story

It’s not a duet which is frustrating and the female voice wasn’t my favorite and made it difficult to listen to her chapters. I enjoyed the story and probably would have enjoyed it more if I’d read it first. Overall it was good.
