Eight Seconds to Ride

Copper Lake, Book 1

De: Ashley James

Narrado por: Alex Kydd, Aaron Shedlock

A steamy one-night-stand in the bathroom of a bar in Las Vegas after a world championship win? Yes, please.

Meeting him again months later, only to learn he's my newest competition? Not so much.

The weight of the legacy I carry is a constant tug in my mind, with the ghosts of the generations before me always whispering for me to push harder, train longer, be better.

In the eight seconds I have to ride, everything else falls away, and my sole focus is on doing what I do best.

I am Shooter Graham, consecutive three-time world champion bronc rider. No one has ever come close to taking the title since I've had it… until him.

Sterling Addams. The new cowboy in town with dark hair, eyes like honey, and a taste for me he likes to pretend he doesn't have.

He's green… but he's good. Too good.

Suddenly, the already heavy pressure I'm under multiplies tenfold. The need to beat him, the uncontrollable urge to put him in his place, becomes almost an obsession.

The question is, how far will I go to prove I'm number one?

both narrators were 🔥🔥🔥

because of this book I'm now very much into cowboys

I love Shooter, that guy's ego is something and I'm here for it!

loved the sweet and funny parts, the touch of hurt/comfort, and the spice was top tier

I was already a fan of Aaron but it was my first time listening to Alex... 👀 sir! 🫠 I'm gonna need more books narrated by him 🔥

cowboy romance ❤️

I am surprised how much I enjoyed this by the end and I'm glad I finished. The character's were very lovable and it's a low angst listen. This story got better and better with a romantic and lovely finish.

🥵 Alex Kydd performance as Shooter was 🔥 The narration definitely kept me engaged during the slower start to this book and was well worth it in the second half of this book. I would listen to pretty much any MM romance he narrated now.

*In the first half of the book there are some editing issues in the writing (ie. repetiveness) and little moments of dead air in this recording but turning the speed to 1.05 eliminated this completely.

Such a perfect listen

Alex Kydd and Aaron Shedlock slayed this! This was another incredible story by Ashley James. Perfectly paced rivals to lovers. The spice!! Be care while driving. Definitely have new favorite narrators.

This was a sweet no angst story. The narrators did a wonderful job bringing the characters to life.

Happened upon this book. Very glad!!

This is a warm, funny love story based in the Bronco/cowboy way of life,. it's super spicy but in a good way and the 2 MM were easy to route for, & good group of friends for future book. Well worth a credit.

Amazing Narration

I love me a good Cowboy Romance and we love a cocky, confident man finally showing his soft side. And I definitely love when they fall first. This was my first Aaron Shedlock narration…but could literally listen to Alex Kydd talk for hours. Loved it

Bronc Riding Perfection!

This book had a couple of my favorite things. MM and Cowboys and I really enjoyed it! Shooter is a bit cocky, but I think that really worked as the relationship between him and Sterling developed. Sterling has the sweet, shy, inexperienced personality and it balanced really well with Shooters overconfident, cocky personality. I really enjoyed how Shooter ended up being really supportive of Sterling and their mutual connection as bronc riders was really good! I enjoyed the side characters and the story overall and I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

The audiobook is narrated by Alex Kydd and Aaron Shedlock, both are favorite narrators for me and they did a really great job on this story.

These Cowboys Made Me Swoon!

I absolutely loved this book from start to finish! Two professional rodeo cowboys who meet one night in a bar and the rest kicks off after that! I am head over heels in love with Shooter and Sterling. This book has all the spice to match the swoon worthy sweetness! The banter and chemistry between these two had me kicking my feet! And the amount of love they have for one another 🥹 It was perfect! The mental health representation in this book also made my heart so happy to see.
I listened to the audiobook while reading along and I cannot express just how much Alex Kydd & Aaron Shedlock made this entire reading experience one I will truly never forget. Their performances made me feel all the butterflies. I could feel all their emotions coming off the pages! I highly recommend you listen to this audiobook, it is phenomenal!!

Sweet love story

I really loved this story. A well rounded story that was sweet and not angsty at all. Lots of push and pull between the two main characters but they obviously found their HEA.

Both narrators did a great job bringing the characters to life.
