Third Man In

The Playmakers Series, Book 2

De: G.K. Brady

Narrado por: Tor Thom, Whitton Frank

He just put her boyfriend in the hospital. Now he’s falling for her. What could possibly go wrong?

I’m the toughest enforcer in the league. I’ve worked hard for that title, but there’s one little problem with being an overachiever: I never know when to quit. So when I sucker-punch a rival on the ice, I end up benched for the rest of the season, suspended, and traded to Colorado. Feeling guilty and wanting to make things right, I decide to visit the injured player… only to be caught off guard by a stunning woman I meet at the hospital.

Natalie Foster’s fresh start isn't going as planned. After her new boyfriend lands in the hospital—thanks to yours truly—and his ex shows up to stir the pot, she seems relieved to find a new friend in me. And when I bite off more than I can chew by adopting a dog, she’s more than happy to lend a hand.

As I struggle to fit in with my new team and repair my reputation, I keep my past under wraps, even as my feelings for Natalie grow stronger. She has no clue I’m T.J. Shanstrom, but I’m falling harder every day.

The truth is about to wreck our chance for that perfect happily ever after.

When Kevin's ex-wife comes back in the picture, Natalie comes to terms that her relationship with Kevin is really not that strong and breaks up with him in order for him and his ex-wife to reconcile. During this time, she cannot stop thinking about TJ and he cannot stop thinking about her as well. So much so, he gets a dog and hires her dog walking services.

TJ and Natalie's relationship builds over time and they have awesome chemistry but when she finds out he's the reason Kevin's career is over, will this end what they were building or will they get their HEA.

Great narration!

I love how Tyler and Natalie friendship to lovers was developed throughout this story.
The drama surrounding his hockey career makes him a target.
This story is emotional, drama, heat, and a love of dogs.
Tor Thom and Whitton Frank emotiomal narration is wonderful..

More than just hockey

This story really drew me in. I thought it would be a typical hockey romance. The story and the characters actually go much deeper. TJ had a hard go if it and the author does a good job of making me feel for his predicament. Natalie is a kind soul who needs to learn how to strengthen herself. Each have a lesson to learn and grow from.

I was shocked and surprised by the story and it really kept me on my toes. I enjoyed it and look forward to more. The narration is wonderfully done. Tor Thom is always a joy to listen to and Whitton Frank is new to me but did a great job as well.

Hockey romance.
