Consider Me

Playing for Keeps, Book 1

By: Becka Mack

Narrated by: Kasha Kensington, Alex Kydd

Carter Beckett is the NHL’s resident bad boy, top player both on the ice and in the bedroom, and quite possibly the sexiest man to ever grace my field of vision. But worst of all? He knows it.

He’s arrogant, self-centered, and the man doesn’t seem to know what a filter is, let alone how to use one. He’s had everything served to him on a silver platter, including endless strings of women, and apparently, I’m up next.

His only problem? I have no intention of falling for his shi—um, charm.

I have the solution to all my sexual frustrations in a drawer at home, and it’s far less complicated than Carter Beckett. Sure, he may be pretty, but he’s also a walking, talking reminder for you to wrap it before you tap it.

But then I start letting my guard down, and he starts showing me pieces of himself I had no intention of seeing. The bricks surrounding me may be tumbling down one by one, but I’m not sold yet, which means for the first time in his life, Carter’s the one begging.

For my time, my trust, for a single chance. For me to just…consider him.

Consider Me is the first book in the Playing for Keeps series, but it can be listened to as a standalone. It is a mature hockey romance that contain lots of heat, swoon, laughs, and a ride on an emotional roller coaster!

Mushy high school ish romance puppy luv novel

The story line was a typical romance novel mixed with adult romance erotica and then the average adult drama problems with insecurities of mixing nobodies with big time athletes. I get that. But the mushy 10+ chapters of repeat narrative was overkill. 56 chapters could have been easily 40 chapters and the big climax of a problem was solved in 2 chapters which didn't fit the complexity of this novel.

Prob my favorite audio book!!!

I never knew I needed to hear a Canadian accent so bad in an audio.

I loved this book but audio even more.

LOVED! A must listen!

This story was AMAZING y’all! I love Alex Kydd as a male narrator always so him narrating was just icing on the yummy cake! Kasha Kensington is fairly new to me as far as female narrators, but I just loved her as well! They had perfect chemistry and meshed each others parts together so well! Aside from the great performances, the writing in this story was top notch! Loved the mix of steamy, serious, and laugh out loud funny! She gave all the characters individual likable personalities that all flowed so well together! Also, unlike so many romance novels I read or listen to, there wasn’t too much female introspection and over analyzing… that can get so tedious and in my opinion is often a downside to romances. She did a great job balancing the male perspective—which again in my opinion often gets buried under the females in so many story lines. I actually prefer when the male perspective is the more dominant in a romance novel. The author did a great job with our “guy”—giving him layers and not just writing him as the “typical” wealthy jock romance book personality type. I will be looking for the next book from this author for sure! ❤️

I couldn’t stop smiling!

I have never read a book where I couldn’t stop smiling and didn’t want the stet to end. Great writing style and narration. I’m hooked!

1000/10

I absolutely love this series it’s so amazing. I love the way the narrators got into their roles.
