Narrado por: Alexander Cendese, Angelina Rocca

Tatum Kelly's life was spiraling.

The funding for the women's hockey team was cut, her scholarship was ruined, and her hopes for the season were gone. With nothing else to lose, Tatum joins the men's team, much to the dismay of captain Callum O'Neil. Luckily for them, you don't need to be friends to be winners.

As the tension builds, Callum's best friends, Jace and Shawn, pursue Tatum's respect, both on and off the ice. Determined to make this season her best yet, Tatum knows better than to get involved with one teammate, much less two. But what if hockey isn't enough for her anymore? What if she finds her missing piece... or pieces?

Contains mature content.

Cute mmfm story

Nice easy listen and palette cleanser after the deep trauma filled book I just finished. Fun twist that she was also on the team.

Nice and easy listen

My only complaint with this audiobook is that the male narrator was noticeably faster than the female narrator so I had to slow down those chapters a bit. Both narrators were great though! Just different speeds

Narrative

Good story, there was just something about the male narrator that I wasn’t a fan of. I like to listen to my books at a pretty fast speed and sometimes he sounded like a stereotypical surfer guy accent

Didn’t realize it was gonna be about a foursome

Enjoyed the storyline, but then it got a little weird when you’re talking about three men with one woman a little unrealistic

Really enjoyable listen

The character development over the plot was amazing. Loved this plot. A bit more sexual scenes than I expected but I’m not complaining.

Story has okay bones but sounds like a first draft

I think there’s some bones to something good here. But it felt like part of a first draft rather than a full story. The three major issues that bugged me the most:

1) The characters were really hard to keep straight with all the switching from being called by the first or last name. I listened to this one and the MMCs voices were like a surfer dude and got really hard to listen to by the end. I think that may have been a direction requested and not the voice actor though.

2)O’Neil said she wasn’t hot, and was still hooking up with other people for most of the book and then a simple apology about something that happened years before shifted everything. He was still thinking that she wasn’t hot not long before hooking up with her. And then still screwed her over. He was really hard to like.

3) Transitions from scene to scene were jumpy and spicy scenes were set up and then dropped. Christmas gifts were teased and then we never found out what it was. It just felt jumpy and half thought out. Teasing sword crossing then fading to black just felt like being jerked around.

Why choose

Why choose aren't my favorite, I should have known reading the title that this was going to go that way but it was still spicy and cute. I just don't like the multiple partners other than that it was well written and had a good storyline.

Rom-com to tear jerker and back to celebration

Good job on the storyline. Not so simplistic as so many modern romances. Just enough sex, about an hour of tears, and a great ending. The reader could use a little bit more inflexion (he reads at a constant level of excitement and could use more variety). Altogether a job ell done and I will probably read this one again.

Cute but wouldn’t pay for it

The male narrator could not do other voices very well. Some of the story bugged me by calling one of the guys the blonde haired one. It was just weird say the name or he..

audio is amazing

Definitely a smoother read than the print and loved all narrators. Made me fall in love with Sean Patrick all over again
