Pucked

De: Helena Hunting

Narrado por: John Mclaren, Muffy Newtown

The first standalone novel in The Pucked Series

With a famous NHL player for a stepbrother, Violet Hall is well acquainted with the playboy reputation of many a hockey star. So of course she isn't interested in legendary team captain Alex Waters or his pretty, beat-up face and rock-hard six-pack abs. But when Alex inadvertently obliterates Violet's misapprehension regarding the inferior intellect of hockey players, he becomes much more than just a hot body with the face to match. Suffering from a complete lapse in judgment, Violet discovers just how good Alex is with the hockey stick in his pants.

Violet believes her night of orgasmic magic with Alex is just that: one night. But Alex starts to call. And text. And email and send extravagant - and quirky - gifts. Suddenly he's too difficult to ignore and nearly impossible not to like. The problem is, the media portrays Alex as a total player, and Violet doesn't want to be part of the game.

Holy accent, Batman!

What was with the male narrator? He was supposed to be performing a Canadian accent, but sounded more like Scottish-British-Jersey boy. He made Alex seem creepy sometimes. Muffy should have narrated the whole book. Don’t let this turn you off from listening, because the story is beyond hilarious! Luckily, the male narrator doesn’t perform much at all.

Perfect Balance Of Sweet and Sexy!

After reading all of the reviews about the horrible male narrator I was hesitant to try this one. So glad I took the chance. Although the male narrator is bad he doesn't ruin the entire story. His voice was tolerable, however he tried to do a Canadian accent that got butchered and ended up sounding more Scottish than Canadian at times.

Overall this story was the perfect mix of sexy and sweet with an amazing story line, which is what I look for in a romance novel. This one was definitely worth the credit.

I'm sure Nathan Everett is a good man ...

... but voice ruins this book. It's only because of the female narrator (Muffy) that the performance isn't a complete failure.

Ignore all chapters labeled "Alex" and it's 5-stars.

Be prepared for hysterical laughter!!!

I’ve seen this book recommended many times and now I know why! Violet has a smart mouth, witty retorts, and you can’t help but love her! The narration by Muffy Newtown was incredible and I actually preferred her male voice, although narrator Nathan Everett did have a really authentic Canadian accent. I fell hard for Alex Waters and can’t wait to listen to Buck’s story!

As a Canadian...

As a Canadian, I am left wondering what the heck kind of a Canadian accent that was. Everytime the guy spoke I had to chuckle. I’ve never heard anyone from Canada speak like that. To me, it sounded more Scottish or Irish than Canadian. The narration was good besides that and I enjoyed the story.
