About this listen

I’ve been counting down to summer—finally, a chance to escape. After a brutal hockey season, all I want is peace and quiet on my new ranch. But a streak of bad weather traps me with my neighbor, Terra White, and suddenly, solitude doesn’t seem so appealing.

Terra’s got a spark I can’t ignore, even though I keep telling myself to. She’s funny, adventurous, and easy to be around. But her father is a different story. Disapproving and overprotective, he’s made it clear he thinks Terra deserves someone who won’t let her down. After my own failed marriage, I’m not convinced that’s me.

Back in the city, I can’t get her out of my head. I message her, and our friendship grows over late-night calls and texts that feel like they mean more. I know Terra wants a love that lasts, but I’m not sure I can live up to her family’s expectations—or my own.

Letting her in means risking everything, and I don’t know if I’m ready to take that leap.

Besting The Blueliner is a steamy friends to lovers, grump/sunshine sports romance. I liked how easy and comfortable they were with each other right from the start. These characters were so good, I just loved when Terra and Cam finally got together. The way he treated her was so dreamy, I want a guy like that. Tor Thom and Amanda Stribling did a very good job bringing these characters to life. If you a chance read this series you won't be disappointed, plenty of book boyfriends HEA's.

Besting the Blueliner

Cam Blue is new to the Colorado mountains and new to the Colorado Blizzards,the NHL team. Cam and his dog, Grace, love spending time at their cabin up in the mountains, which is where they meet and rescue Tara White. Tara's no stranger to the mountains, but accidents happen and she ended up pinned beneath her side by side. They ended up getting stuck in the mountains due to bad weather and that's when they get to know each other. This is a heartwarming story, a kind of enemies-to friends - to lovers type of story.. I wouldn't necessarily put it into the hockey Romance category as that is almost like a micro-trope. But the nature of the sport does come into play, so it still works. HEA at the end and it's worth the wait! Tor Thom and Amanda Stribling are telling the story in your earbuds and did an amazing job! As always, Tor melts the snow with the heat and this is the first time for me hearing Amanda, but she did great.., definitely grab this audiobook!

This is cute! I enjoyed the storyline. It has a few ups, downs and a chuckle or two. The characters are delightful. I enjoyed Terra as she has a bit to overcome. Cam is just the best! I loved him. The whole naming scheme of his family is awesome! Brilliant! Such a great guy! Loved the whole neighbor ranch theme.

I listened to this on audio. Tor Thom and Amanda Stribling are the narrators. They both do a wonderful job.

This is cute!

I really enjoyed this story. I didn’t ready any of the other books in the series and didn’t feel I needed to for the benefit of Cam and Tara’s story. However, I did feel as maybe I was missing something with the hockey team.
Great performance by the narrators.

Very Enjoyable

I listened to the audiobook version of this book and I really enjoyed it. Everything about Terra and Cam is just so cute. I love how they met, and how they were basically forced to spend time together in the beginning. Their relationship developed slowly from dislike to tolerate, to a friendship, until they finally fall in love. I also loved how, like in every real life relationship, mistakes are made on both sides. The romance was excellent and the spice was chef's kiss. The narration by Tor Thom and Amanda Stribling was excellent. Their tone of voice, and their inflections are just superb. Great audiobook!

G.K Brady is a relatively new author to me, and I am shocked that I have not read more from this talented author before. From the first chapter I was invested in professional hockey player Cam Blue and Terra White’s story.

Cam has been badly burnt in the past and Terra is worried that she will never find “the one” thanks to an overprotectivefather and brother. These two meet in unusual circumstances and fate has plans for them.
 
As Terra gets to know the real man, she knows that he could be Mr. Right but is she good enough for Cam?. This is a slow burn story that was enhanced by the entertaining narration by Tor Thom and Amanda Stribling. Their performances brought the characters and story to life. Not only are their voices easy to listen to, but they brought humour and romance to their performances.
 
I loved their journey; it was entertaining and heartwarming to watch the walls crumble between them.

I am not sure how G.K. Brady does it, but this series gets better and better! Cam and Terra have the most adorable meet cute. It is not love at first sight. Their attraction grows I. Such a natural way, that they feel so real. I loved it from beginning to end. Tor Thom and Amanda Stribling were perfectly cast. They did such an amazing job with the characters. I keep saying that this is my favorite in the series every time I listen to a new one. This is my new favorite.

My new favorite book in the series.

I was entertained by book eight of "The Playmakers Series" as much as the other books in the series. Cam wanted time alone, so he went to his newly purchased ranch. Terra White wanted time alone, so she traveled to her family's cabin. When a storm took out the power, Cam went to spend time at Terra's family's cabin since they had a generator. Cam's and Terra's love story rested on quicksand as they both had so many uncertainties and insecurities that needed to be faced before reaching solid ground. The characters were so sweet, and yet their misunderstandings added a touch of sadness too. Tor Thom's and Amanda Stribling's dual narrations were good, and their performances added to the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook by Home Cooked Books, and I have voluntarily posted this review which included my opinions.

Their relationship evolves from this point. I enjoyed this audiobook narrated wonderfully by Tor Thom and Amanda Stribling.

This book was a wonderful listen. The characters and plot were so entertaining, engaging, and enjoyable. Cam Blue is a hockey player, who is just trying to live life in solitude. He’s not interested in any relationship commitment, because his first experience wasn’t the best. While Terra White is ready to settle and find true love. Their first encounter wasn’t the best either. In a small amount of time they end up becoming friends. I definitely recommend this audiobook, I loved everything about it. Tor Thon and Amanda Stribling did an amazing job narrating this audiobook.

Loved it!
