Aiden and Dayna!

Dayna has recently returned home after attending school in Boston. She now finds herself facing the painful memories of the past that drove her away as well as realizing that she and her boyfriend have very different visions for their future.

Aiden is trying to overcome the actions of his family which causes him to react in self-destructive ways. In order to maintain his place on the Lakeshore Hockey Unit he finds himself staying with Carson, his assistant coach who was also the best friend of Dayna’s brother.

Although Aiden didn’t make the best first impression on Dayna she realizes that his demeanor isn’t who he is while after everything Dayna has been through he shows her how to have fun again. At first glance they may seem like an unlikely match, but they understand each other and that’s what makes them so perfect for each other. I enjoyed the performance of the narrators as they brought out the personalities of the characters and their story.

So good!!

Stella Hunter and Evan Parker narration had me hooked. They took Aiden and Dayna’s story and brought it to the next level. What’s not to love? Hockey. Check. Swoony bitter boy. Check. Cute broken girl. Check. This brand new series is on point. A must listen to!

Simply Stunning

Stella and Evan did a phenomenal job of bringing Dayna and Aiden to life. The performance was so good that I felt their emotions! I really loved listening to this amazing book!

Great book… fantastic author!!!

This book is so good! It’s an interesting story about two people who deserve happiness and love! A statement of surviving grief and surviving the stigma of a parent who chose a life of crime over his child. These two characters are fun to read about and very interesting to know!

Stella Hunter and Evan Parker did a wonderful job with the narration!!!

Fantastic sport romance

Dayna and Aiden's story was quite entertaining, this started in a different way as the one expected, yet it was very emotional and was able to somehow relate to her pain and history. Dayna had a difficult time opening herself, but the arrogant Aiden was able to connect to her, little did he know she was going to change his world. The audiobook narrated by Stella Hunter and Evan Parker was well paced, very good pronunciation and the editing was well done, giving the audience a different experience than just reading it, The voices where well casted for this characters and the narrators did a great job portraying them.

Holy Moly!!

I enjoyed reading the book without the audio.. but loved it with the audio. they were easy to follow and listen to even when I was not reading along. My favorite parts of the book came alive. To me audio is like watching a play but with your imagination. I do not know about you bit listening or reading a good book allows your mind to be them and come alive.. You have to read and listen for yourself to form your own opinion...this is mine. 🤗❤️

Just wow!

I don’t even know where to begin.
This is the best way to start 2023 with the perfect mix of magic!
It’s just book one and I can already tell this series is gonna consume me.
This story is full of passion, chemistry, angst and more.
I couldn’t put it down for a second, it’s consuming.
It’s a rollercoaster of emotions all wrapped up in a hot hockey experience!
I won’t spoiler anything but I’ll tell you this: you should definitely prepare yourself to be ice burned!
I gave it absolutely 5 stars !
I hope you’ll enjoy it like I did!

Ice Burn

Ice Burn is a hockey, romance with a tad bit of angst, and steam. The characters were likable, Aiden the bad boy, and Dayna the sweet girl. They have a connection towards one another from the moment their eyes meet. I like the narration, their voices are easy to listen to, and they brought these characters to life. I can't wait for the next book

Aiden and Dayna!

This is the first book in this series and is about . Dayna has completed her degree in Boston and is now moving back home after a loss that changed her 4 years ago. She meets Aiden when he comes to stay with her best friend Carson who is one of Aiden’s hockey coaches. Carson makes it very clear that Dayna is off limits, but when she finds out her boyfriend isn’t behaving himself in the city, she sets her eyes on Aiden for a rebound. After spending the night together what happens after they both discover they want more. Filled with banter, drama, angst, steam and instant attraction.

Can’t wait for more in this series

Love it. Another perfect dose of LA Cottons addictive Romances.

Dayna’s returning home after college. All the things she put on pause are about to become real. Can she find the love in her hometown when so much heartache made her run away?

Aidan is keeping his head down for the summer. All the anger he’s kept bottling inside needs a break from his real life. Will a close friend of his ice hockey coach be the key to letting it fade away?

This was a cute story. It had its steamy moments but my heart was full of love for these two.

Great book and performance

Easy to listen!


I love l.a cotton books and this new hockey series is no different.

Love a good opposite attract. I enjoyed their chemistry and dynamics. I loved how they both over come their past.

Looking forward to the future stories. I felt like we didn’t get enough of the other hockey team but it was break.
