The first novel in a sexy new series featuring the hockey players of the Brooklyn Bruisers and the women who win their hearts.

Hockey player Leo Trevi has spent the last six years trying to do two things: get over the girl who broke his heart, and succeed in the NHL. But on the first day he's called up to the newly franchised Brooklyn Bruisers, Leo gets checked on both sides. First by the team's coach, who has a long simmering grudge, and then by the Bruisers' sexy, icy publicist - his former girlfriend Georgia Worthington.

Saying goodbye to Leo was one of the hardest things Georgia ever had to do - and saying hello again isn't much easier. Georgia is determined to keep their relationship strictly professional, but when a press conference microphone catches Leo declaring his feelings for her, things get really personal - really fast.

This book has two sides to it....the first side is the lighthearted, amusing antics between the teammates. I actually lol more than once. I played women’s basketball for 12 years and I can tell you that interpersonal relationships between women athletes is not as congenial as with men. Men haze, tease and taunt each other, unmercifully, and it brings the team together. This is not the case with women’s sports teams. I have always admired this quality in men.

The second half of this books involves a complex story of three people who have been emotionally scarred by a single sexual assault that altered each of their lives profoundly but differently. There is the common angst caused misunderstandings due to miscommunication , but wasn’t overdone. Everything gets ironed out, in the end, and everyone gets their HEA!
Just hit download, you won’t regret it!

I really enjoyed the book. I actually started the series with Brooklynaire - I had no idea it was part of a series. I do wish I had started with this one, though. I liked the story, there wasn't any of the normal "stupid roll your eyes" type of drama. There were no odd inconsistencies, which I seem to find a lot of lately. The story flowed along smoothly and didn't drag at all.

Narrators:
This was my first time listening to either narrator and they were both captivating! I was in book slump, but they (and Sarina Bowen) pulled me right out

Nicol Zanzarella-4.5 stars-Almost a perfect performance (for both narrators actually), but a few times her male voices just sounded a little off.
Rock Engle-4.5 stars-A couple of his female voices were also a little off. The voice he used for the MC's mother and sister was awkward. The two of them had accents-the father may have as well, but I'm not sure. The brother and MC didn't have any sort of accent. I felt like this was a bit distracting. At the very least, the siblings should have the same sort of accent.

Definitely entertaining!

I had listened to this book a while ago and was not overwhelmed by it. However, after this listening, I have moved this story firmly into the "I'll listen to this one again" so I must have enjoyed it much more this time around.

I am not the biggest fan of the audio though. I liked the narrators, but it seemed like the speed was off a little bit. It seemed like it was a bit to fast on regular speed, but too slow when I switched it down to 0.75x speed. Who knows, maybe I'm just off.

A good story.
