About this listen

After being dumped on her 21st birthday, Bailey James rebounds right into the arms of her ex’s biggest competition...

Chase Carter: antagonizer, womanizer, and infamous left winger for her college’s rival team.

Following a string of scandals and substandard grades, Chase is on thin ice with his teammates and tyrannical coach. The last thing he needs is to have his focus and loyalty called into question by fraternizing with his team’s #1 competition, but a beautiful stranger who throws herself at him one night is too tempting to pass up...until she throws up on his shoes.

Caught in the midst of a bitter rivalry that extends far beyond the arena, Chase and Bailey are on opposite sides of the bench. He’s worked his entire life to secure a future in the NHL. She’s tagged along while her brother has done the same. Fraternizing with the enemy is definitely out of the question, but what if the enemy is impossible to resist?

Offside is a steamy new adult college romance. It is book one of the Rules Of The Game series but can be listened to as a complete standalone.

Consent is sexy

I love a book that stresses consent. This book was great and I liked that all the twists and turns were resolved.

Great mix of heat, wit, drama and ice time

Loved, loved this story! Enjoyed how Chase and James got to know each other, witty conversation, being on the edge of my seat through some of the foul plays and all the game scenes. Some hockey romances don’t actually feature the act of playing much in the story but Avery gives you a good amount of on the ice scenes. Such a great action packed, hot and genuine romance. One of my favorites.

So unbelievably wholesome

The comfort this book brought, no forcing always asking for consent and making her feel comfortable, it was calm but at the same time kept you on the edge with the plot twists. Truely loved the book!

Super cute

This book was super enjoyable to listen. to. at first you think Chase is going to be the epitomy of toxic masculinity but he's actually the total opposite. total green flag energy. It was nice to read about a relationship with healthy communication and two way supportiveness. The narrators did a fantastic job.

Surprised - Worth the Read

My first ‘hockey’ romance and I was totally skeptical but I loved this book. I found myself saying just one more chapter, finished it so much quicker than I planned too!
