The first book in the scorching new Hot Jocks series by New York Times best-selling author Kendall Ryan - available in audio first!

I've never been so stupid in my entire life.

Elise Parrish, my teammate's incredibly sweet and gorgeous younger sister, should have been off-limits, but my hockey stick didn't get the memo.

After our team won the championship, our flirting turned physical, and I took her to bed. Then shame sent her running the next morning from our catastrophic mistake.

She thinks I don't remember that night - but every detail is burned into my brain so deeply, I’ll never forget. The feel of her in my arms, the soft whimpers of pleasure I coaxed from her perfect lips....

And now I’ve spent three months trying to get her out of my head, but I’m starting to understand she’s the only girl I’ll ever want.

I have one shot to show her I can be exactly what she needs, but Elise won’t be easily convinced.

That’s okay, because I’m good under pressure, and this time, I’m playing for keeps.

This was a pretty cute sports romance! It had amazing narrators who helped bring the characters to life! I always love listening to books narrated by Jason Clarke and was very happy with the narration from Virginia Rose! Both were amazing!
While I don't think the blurb quite matches the storyline, the general idea was right with the two protagonist having spent a night together and realising that they wanted more despite the forces against them.
Elise and Justin are very cute together and do end up resolving their problems quite quickly. This is definitely a book if you are looking for something with a HEA and pretty much a feel good romance all the way through apart from a few disputes caused by insecurity.
If this sounds like the book for you then I would definitely recommend it to you! I hope you love it! Enjoy!
Overall: 4.5/5

Another brothers best friend trope and it was mehhhh... she was a V before he took it and fell in love, oh how wonderful 🙄

It was shorter than most and I listened to the audiobook as it was free (the rest are not) but I wasn't a fan of the female narrator Virginia Rose as she sounded a hell of lot older then the character.

I don't think I will be reading the rest but if I get bored enough, I just might.

2.5/5⭐️ 3/5🌶️ 2/5🎧
