About this listen

Coach Gavin Blackburn has been through hell.

Three years ago, he was on top of the world, courted by the best teams in the NHL to coach their players.

His wife’s unexpected death destroyed him, and sent him running from hockey. He thought he’d left the sport behind forever, but when his ex-player shows up at his remote cabin, begging him to return to Portland University to coach the Evergreens again, he agrees.

The last thing Gavin expected was their mentor-student relationship to turn into something entirely different now that Zach is grown up. He certainly never expected to feel attraction again, or to feel it for a man. For Zach.

Or for Zach to want him back, with a passion Gavin couldn’t deny even if he wanted to.

He’s too old, too washed up, too destroyed by grief, and has no intention of dating ever again, but maybe it’s own assumptions that need to be broken and re-made.

Maybe it’s Zach who needs to be the one who break him down and make him into something new. Give him something new: a wild, unexpected and unprecedented love affair.

First I want to say that the problem with the chapters being messed up has been fixed. Next is how much I loved Zach and Gavin’s story. Super slow burn but once they get going, so hot!

Darcy Stark did another amazing job performing this wonderful story. If you haven’t read or listened to any of the other books in this series I think this one works well as a standalone.

Breaking the Ice also gives pretty good hints for Beth’s next series and I can’t wait!

Fantastic!

Story: Holy smokes! Now that was a sucker punch I didn't expect! I always know I'm in for a treat with Beth Bolden's books, but something in this one packed a wallop I didn't see coming.
There's a lot of healing and a lot of personal growth in this book, and I really did enjoy the journey!
Narration: Brilliant job as usual!
