Confession time:

My name is Noel Sandlund and I play professional hockey-defense to be exact.

I lead a pretty good life. I'm not hurting for money and the ladies seem to like me.

And now things have gotten even better - I think I may have fallen in love.

See, while I was in Sweden playing in the world hockey championships this off-season, I met Maisie Troy.

And, man, she's it for me.

Confession time:

I'm Maisie Troy.

This summer I met a man who's everything I've ever wanted and more.

His name is Noel and he's hot and sweet and plays amazing hockey.

I think he could be the one.

Too bad there's one huge problem - I'm not who he thinks I am.

No, I'm just an illusion.

An illusion that's about to shatter...like ice.

Illusion on Ice is the seventh novel in the bestselling Boys of Winter hockey romance series.

Heat on the ice!

Noel and Maisie's story was a good one. The way that they met was a little unconventional, but I could tell from the get go that Maisie wasn't really that person. I loved watching these two fall in love and become so much more to each other. The story kept moving and we got glimpses into other characters from the series. I loved Noel who was such a great book boyfriend to Maisie. He wouldn't let her go no matter and took time to really understand why she did what she did.

I love listening to these stories. My only wish would be for the narrator to be a little more different between men and women characters. Sometimes they sounded the same. It was a good listen though.

A Great Hockey Romance

I love hockey romances! This is my first audiobook from Avie Paige and this is a solo narration where she narrates the full story in both male and female POV. This book switches every other chapter in the Hero and Heroine's POV. I liked her voice for the male characters more than I liked her voice for the heroine, Maisie. At times, it seemed like the heroine's voice was a bit on the whiney side, but overall, the narration was done well. As for the storyline, I really like Noel and him as the hero! I couldn't understand Maisie's struggle with her mother, but it also seemed real because it's very human to keep believing and hoping someone will change. I haven't caught up with the full storyline in this series, I've only read the very first book. However, it wasn't needed in order to read this book, which is seventh in the series. It did peak my interest in the rest of the series though and finding out how everyone else's stories pan out and also what happens with Noel's twin sister and if she gets her own HEA!

sweet story

Maisy is doubtful, insecure, felt that she was never good enough. Everyone in her life has left her. Will Noel leave her too?
What Noel had to do is convince her not to run, be strong and believe in them. I enjoyed listening to this story narrated by Avie Paige.

All because of Sweden

This is first book I have read/listened to by this author, but I love sports romance, especially hockey. This story was sweet, it was nice how Noel took care of Maisie. Maisie had a difficult time prior to meeting Noel and needed to know someone cared. Hockey was definitely more behind the scenes, then a big part of the story. I am interested in reading Noelle's story and hopefully finding out more about this couple's future. Avie Paige narrated this audiobook and I wished it was duel narrated, I think that would have given the book more depth.

4/5

Illusion on Ice was a cute story of fighting for love, learning to love and accept yourself and your flaws, and finding your strength in honesty. This is the first book I've read by S.R. Grey and I thought it was super cute. I had no problem following the book and the characters, despite this being the seventh book in the series. I'd like to read the first six. Illusion on Ice was a fun listening escape, well-written and super sweet. I really likes Noel but maybe not Maisie very much. I'd like to have seen more of their HEA to see more of her redemption.

I received this audiobook for free from Audiobook Obsessions. This is my honest and voluntary review.
