Wanting the Winger

Charleston Coyotes Hockey, Book 1

De: Jacob Chance

Narrado por: Ellie Gossage, Ash Beverly

My dad has been the coach of the Charleston Coyotes for as long as I can remember. All the time I've spent in ice rinks has taught me two things:

1. I will NEVER date a hockey player. As a single mom, it's not like I have time for romance anyway.

2. Nothing smells worse than hockey players after a game. And I work as a dog groomer, so I have experience with smelly animals.

It's amazing how quickly my rules are forgotten when Darius walks into my pet salon. Tall, dark, and tattooed with rippling muscles and a perfect smile must be my kryptonite, because I find myself agreeing to go out with him.

But we're both keeping secrets we're not ready to share. And when they finally come out, everything changes between us. I do my best to keep my distance from him.

Yet, the more I fight my feelings, the more I find myself wanting the winger.

Contains mature themes.

I'm looking forward to reading this new hockey series The Charleston Coyotes.

I'm looking forward to reading this new hockey series The Charleston Coyotes.

I love hockey, so obviously, hockey romance is the best.

We start off with the winger for The Charleston Coyotes.
Darius Kastellanos has played hockey with the same team professionally for six years and with the same coach.
He is normally recognized in public a lot.
At 26, he's not a player. He wants the kinda relationship his parents have shared for 35 years.
When he goes to pick up Brutus, his loveable dog, from the pet groomer, he is greeted with rainbow leopard spots painted on him.

When Evie realizes the colossal mistake she's made, she figures she'll lose her job.
She doesn't recognize Darius because she doesn't follow hockey.

Darius graciously offers to just pay for it because she gets emotional from the bad day she's having.
Never mind that it added an extra $200 on to his now $500 bill.

It takes two weeks, but he can't get her out of his mind.
There's something about her that he's drawn to, and so he takes a chance to figure out what it might be and asks her out.

Evie Bruschi had a daughter, Tillie, when she was 17, and now at 25, she's never been in another relationship other than high school.
She and her baby daddy are best friends, but nothing more.
She's not really looking for a relationship, but one it seems may have found her.

When they meet up at a banquet, she realizes that he's a hockey player, and she doesn't date hockey players.
He realizes that she's the coach's daughter.

Even though this makes things more complicated, it doesn't change the fact that he loves her and he's going to do whatever it takes to be in their lives, no matter what.

The narrators were new to me and did and great job with the audio.
They were easy to listen to and changed up there voices for each character.

I'm looking forward to reading the rest of this series.

Great story

Loved this story. Narrating was great! Nailed down each character and you could always tell who they were.

It was good

The story was good. This is my first romance book written by a man so it has a different one than I am used to but it was good
