I liked this better than part 1. Still very repetitive but the story was fun and enjoyable. It's really a little crazy and out there but lots of fun. Very good narration.

I'll start with the good. I think the emotional journey that Jake went on was incredible. we get to really see him begin to heal. It really hit all the right notes. The things that happened with casey's family broke my heart and made me cry and was so well written. I didn't see that coming and I was truly devastated.

The not so good... Casey. Her character drive me bonkers in this book. Gone was the sweet down to earth goof ball thai charmed me in Cake book 1. Instead we have a bride who may not be bridezilla full blown but still kind of annoying and so insecure. And then when she is going thru her sad moments, the forced baby making and slight blackmailing was not cute. Unfortunately her character was a big turn off for me most of the book.
The narration was good. And I'll keep going in the series because I want more from the other characters in this world. But I struggled with this one.

This was my first time reading this type of MM book and I'll say I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I was intrigued and invested with the overall story and the narration was mostly very good.
I did find it to be a bit repetitive, but also vague. We get told the same vague bits of how the group of adventurers got together many times. I'm not sure if this is recaps of previous books or not, but that's kind of how it felt.
I will definitely be continuing on to Part 2.

This was underwhelming. Not as funny as I'm used to from this author. Very repetitive inner monologs and dialogue. I know we are supposed to like the sister/best friend, but she's just horrible and really selfish. Our two main characters literally bend over backwards to make her happy and she keeps acting like Theo is the problem. She just made me mad the entire book.
One giant plus in this book was Kit Swann. Her performance was spectacular. Listening to her do a drunky character was the only time I really laughed in this whole book.

Gah! I loved this book so much. Erin and Zachary did a beautiful job with the narration. The emotional journey I went on with Sloan was painful, sad, fun, sweet and touching. I loved Jason, Sloane and Tuckers story. This one will stick with me for a while.

The longing and yearning was so off the charts good in this book. I really loved the chemistry between the 2 main characters. I do think they made a mountain out of a mole hill in this book. I don't quite see why it was such a big deal for them to be together since they didn't grow up together, but it didn't bother me enough to not enjoy the overall story. The ending left me a little unsatisfied because I wanted to see how people took the news. But I had fun listening to this audiobook. Callie Dalton and Teddy Hamilton did a wonderful job.

If you look past a few grammatical errors and recording errors (specifically, one chapter restarts the recording midway thru), this is a cute omegaverse story.
I feel like maybe they tried to do a little bit too much, and it dragged on for longer than it needed to. But the characters were good. I enjoyed their different dynamics with the omega. and it definitely leaves you wondering what's gonna happen to a certain side character. overall, the narration was really good, but that accent work was a little cringy.

short, sweet, and perfect. I love how Emily and Jimbo meet. and the way the players both give him a hard time and support him really shows how much of a family they all are.

This one grew on me. Rue is charming with her bluntness and social awkwardness. Eli was on a mission. A revenge mission. And Rue was an obstacle he wasn't expecting.
The writing in this was fantastic. I was intrigued and invested from the beginning. The characters were memorable and unique. It was funny, steamy and had so much emotion. I really loved this story. And both Callie Dalton and Jason Clarke were the perfect casting for the audiobook.

Super super steamy book. Still had enough story to keep me interested. I loved the character development with everyone. This is a fun why choose hockey romance and I really enjoyed it. The narrators did a great job
