Micky

I'm new to this city, but things are looking up. My bestie's husband hooked me up with a great apartment above the hockey bar where I currently work, and I've got a great side gig bringing in plenty of cash to help fund my dream of opening my own cocktail lounge, Sugar & Ice. Life is sweet. My new neighbor, on the other hand, is not.

When he reveals his true self, I hate what I discover. Until some of his secrets unravel, proving we have more in common than I realized, and I don't mean hobbies like rock climbing or outdoor concerts. No, we have the good stuff—shared trauma. I promised myself I'd never let that negativity back into my life again, but my heart tells me Rhys is worth it.

Rhys

Hockey comes first. Always has, always will. I've got a one-year contract, 365 days to prove to them I'm worth the investment—which is why I need to stay far away from the woman across the hall. We know each other quite well, but she thinks we're strangers. I need to keep it that way.

The problem is she's everywhere. Across the hall, on my laptop, bartending where my team hangs out. Micky is like a loose thread that I can't stop tugging. Then, one night, she steps in to do me a favor, and all my defenses get shot to hell. Now, I'm showing her the real me, but it might not be enough for her.

This spicy hockey romance features dirty talk, praise, degradation, angst, enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, and, of course, a happily ever after. Intended for mature listeners.

Best so far!

Lonan's story was great but Rhys 🔥🥵. This is a great series and the audio was amazing

Steamy and Sticky

Wonderfully written and read. The passion jumps off the pages.
The addiction aspect really hit home and I’m glad when writers expose others to this issue.

Even better on audio!!

Holy sh*t this book was 10x hotter on audio. I first read this book shortly after it released, and I’m so happy it made its way to audio. Congrats Sloane on another banger!

Can’t get enough!

I recently discovered Sloane St James and I just can’t get enough! This story was spectacular and captivating! The narrators did an excellent job as well! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely PERFECT book & audio!

How could I not immediately love Rhys and this book?!! I love how fierce and feisty Micky is and how hard she works for what she wants - some of my favorite qualities in a FMC! I love every spicy scene between them and how Rhys is determined to top a top, right from the start. The banter and chemistry between them is so palpable and so freaking hot!

Their story was beautiful, despite the struggles along the way. The way that Sloane incorporates the topic of addiction into the story and how both of them handle each situation is written so well and I love the representation of it, as it is hard to know/love someone who struggles with addiction.

AUDIOBOOK
omg this audio was absolutely perfect! The narrators were fabulous and it’s exactly how I envisioned them both sounding! Hearing Rhys and his dirty mouth was 🥵🥵. The audiobook is to die for!
