Off the Boards

Camrose U, Book 2

De: Maia Kinley

Narrado por: Javi Wilder, Iggy Toma

I'm obsessed with the prettiest, smartest guy on campus—and he's never even looked my way.

Killian

It's my last season playing college hockey, and I'm determined to help get the team all the way to championships this year. Unfortunately, whether I actually get to be on the ice depends on how well I do in statistics. I need a tutor, and the one person my professor swears can help me refuses to even give me the time of day.

I've been into Maddox since the first time I saw him, but he's not into jocks—and he doesn't even acknowledge my existence. When I finally ask if he'll tutor me, he shuts me down immediately.

But I'm not one to give up. This might be my last chance to get close to him, and I can't let that slip away.

Maddox

I don't do jocks. I don't befriend them, date them, or tutor them. Not after… everything.

But when Killian, one of the Camrose Rams' star players, barges into my life, avoiding him becomes impossible. He's loud, charming, and way too persistent—and he looks at me as if I hung the moon. Somehow, I end up getting roped into tutoring him. And letting him into parts of my life I've kept off-limits.

As much as I try to keep my distance, it's impossible. He's everything I swore to stay away from, and exactly what I can't seem to resist.

Off the Boards is an MM nerd/jock romance, perfect for readers who like study sessions brimming with tension, flirty and overprotective hockey players, and a tutor who's very close to breaking his no-jocks rule.

So good!

Genuinely love the dynamic between the two main characters and can’t wait for the third book!

Predictable but I loved it

I loved Killian. he's everything! I want to wrap him in a blanket burrito and love him to pieces.

Cute story

Very sweet story of i want him but i dont want him….the back and forth was cute af not very spicy but it was still a very good story overall.

Great Series….hope there is a 3rd book!

Fun, light read. Spicy, but had good story depth too. Characters were easy to fall in love with. Love the narrators too.

Study and Chill!

Finished listening to the audiobook *Off The Boards* by Maia Kinley, and I had to share my thoughts with you. Killian Schultz is utterly loud, charming, and persistent—his defense line hockey spirit alongside Caleb Jennings really brought a punch to the story. Caleb’s reluctance to introduce Killian to Maddox was hilarious, but once they finally met, the tension and chemistry were electric.

Maddox Russo is the perfect contrast with his doe eyes and freckles, clearly not the typical jock type, though he’s tight with Caleb. Watching him get pulled into Killian’s world, especially over that unforgettable bowling bet, made the story so much fun and relatable. Maddox’s competitive streak really shines through, and it makes their dynamic so engaging.

Both characters grow in such an organic way—I honestly love seeing Nick, Caleb, and Rhys pop back up, too. Isaac's increased presence felt like a great setup for book three, which I’m already excited about.

Overall, Maia Kinley nailed the character development and tension, making *Off The Boards* an absolute joy to dive into. I can’t wait to see where Rhys and Isaac’s story goes next in book three!

Hope you get a chance to read or listen to it soon—I think you’ll love it as much as I did.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – A total soul-altering favorite; I’m tattooing every single word on my body. This story left a lasting impression and I can’t put down. Definitely one to reread.
