Summary

Revised and Edited Third Edition

He trusts his gut, she trusts her numbers, and neither trusts the other, as a billionaire's mission to bring hockey to Seattle clashes with his passion for the woman who holds his heart.

Ethan Parker, a billionaire determined to bring professional hockey to Seattle, will stop at nothing to realize his dream. After putting down a hefty deposit on another city's team, the sale is stalled as the parties involved evaluate their options. In the meantime, Ethan’s investors insist he go undercover during the playoffs to get the inside scoop.

Lauren Schneider, assistant director of player personnel, gets no respect from the team's testosterone-loaded staff. When Ethan bursts onto the scene, full of charm and genuinely interested in her opinions, she shares the team's weaknesses and discovers a weakness of her own - for Ethan. But when his true identity is revealed, and he starts cleaning house based on her input, his betrayal cuts deeply on both a professional and personal level. Bound by an employment contract, Lauren reluctantly moves to Seattle to work for the newly christened Seattle Sockeyes and her sexy, infuriating boss.

Lauren and Ethan must come to terms with their passions - for the team, for hockey, and for each other. Will their situation build a frozen wall between them, or will their love burn hot enough to melt the ice shielding their hearts?

Interesting story line

I enjoyed listening to this book. The story was easy to follow and the narration was done well. The characters were fun to get to know. Lauren and Ethan had a lot to overcome to their hea. Am looking forward to more in the series.

not your typical hockey romance

Ethan wants to own a team. Lauren has been trying to gain respect in the hockey world. These two seem like the most unlikely pair. The only thing they have in common is the love of the game. Once Ethan goes undercover to find out about the team hs is buying, Lauren is the one who gives him the inside scoop. He instantly respects her opinions and Lauren finds she is growing fond of him. I enjoyed the banter between these two. The realistic relationship between Lauren and the players and the realistic uncertainty of new ownership. Ethan my not have been a pro athlete, but I enjoyed how these two found each other. I was hooked from the first chapter and found myself always hoping for their happy ending.

Shaina Summerville really brought this story to life. She has an easy to listen to voice. She kept the characters distinct and easy to follow. Her male voices were smooth and all different. Shaina really brought out all the struggles and emotions of Lauren. Overall, this was a great listen.

Perfect pair 💜

I enjoyed this book. I feel like things were kind of predictable but I enjoyed it all the same. I liked the characters and feel like they made the perfect pair. Narration was great and I recommend this book.

Hockey romance

I love sports romance and this was no different. I didn’t love the various voices from the narrator but it wasn’t anything that kept me from listening. My biggest complaint would be the story just kind of ended without really finishing. I was hoping for an epilogue to wrap it up but that didn’t happen. Again not worth not listening to and more just a personal preference but great overall story and love a good HEA.

Skating for love

a great story by a new to me Author. love, deception and trust issues are what keep these two from admitting the truth.

new narrator based well. she did amazing at the female voices. the male sounded off and out of breath. if the story was so good I may have stopped listening.

Nice sweet story

This book has a sweet storyline. It has the cut throat sporting focus as well. The characters are lovely and likeable. Good narration from Shaina.

This is a great listen!!

I love hockey, and Jami Davenport has written a great hockey story here! Ethan may not be a professional hockey “guy” but he lives the game and wants to own a team. He can afford to own a team.. so he goes after what he wants. Lauren works for the team Ethan wants. She is not heard with the current owners or staff, but her instincts are good and she knows hockey! Ethan sees that, and he wants to work with her.

Will Ethan get his team? Will Lauren agree to work with him? It’s so worth the listen to find out!!! I love the writing, the characters, and the whole story!

Shaina Summerville is a new narrator for me. Her normal voice and he female character voices are pleasant, but I had a little difficulty with her male voices. It did NOT change how I felt about this book!

Good hockey romance; too much forced angst

Ethan goes undercover to assess a hockey team that he wants to buy. Lauren works for the team and there’s instant attraction. But as he’s undercover, he’s not allowed to let her in on his secret. How do they overcome starting their relationship on a bed of lies?

I enjoyed most of the story until towards the end. I thought that there was too much forced angst and the way that Lauren reacted to the reveal was unbelievable, given how the whole book she was exalted for her professionalism. However, I really liked the characters for most of the book so I give the book a 3.5.

In terms of the narration, Shaina was ok, when she played the female characters. However, I admit that I didn’t like her male voices- those voices sounded too forced and in such an unnatural way, sharp way. However, her narration otherwise was pretty good in terms of pacing and admittedly, it was easy to differentiate between the voices.
