About this listen

With Sam’s help, I’d improve my grades and stay on the team. What neither of us expected is that after studying, there was more I could teach him.

After Jayden’s father died, he felt lost and alone. Nothing made sense to him anymore except for the ice and skating. It was there he could lose himself. With playoffs approaching, everything he had worked so hard to achieve was in jeopardy.

With stunning blue eyes shining behind glasses, timid and unsure, Sam came from an opposite world from him.

Sam’s job was to help Jayden improve himself. Jayden’s job became to show Sam who he really was. As much as neither of them ever wanted to admit it, they both needed someone.

Breakaway is a gay love story with characters who come alive and stay with you long after the story has ended. This story may take place on the ice, but its details are steamy and hot.

Cute NA M/M Short Story

The narration was not too bad. It definitely improved as the story went along. Some of the accents were weird but luckily they were few and far between.

Jayden is a star hockey player who needs a little help in one of his classes. Sam is the D&D playing, comic loving tutor tasked with helping Jayden.

The relationship that forms between these two is very believable. I enjoyed the story. The plot was well developed and executed given its length.

Sports star and Geek

The story is hockey player meets geek tutor. They click. They deal with homophobia in an overall supportive universe. The editing is not great. The narrator repeats sentences several times in the audiobook.

Adorable story, interesting narration

The story is very well written, but I just couldn't get past the narrator's voices for a couple of characters, particularly Sam's roommate sounding somewhere between a tween Morty (from Rick & Morty) or a bad Mickey Mouse impression.

The Narrator's voice

Good story. But the wrong person read it. Voice is too plain and doesn't fit.

I can’t

The story was ok but the narration was all over the place. First of all there was so many accents. I felt like his friends were from Sesame Street to Arnold Schwarzenegger. Also I can tell he has potential but if wanted to refer him to a friend to listen to I can’t remember his name to pronounce it. He should use an initial or a shorter name. Narration can make or break a book. I don’t read I’m addicted to audio so it’s a big deal to me and too a lot of listeners. I was on the fence to wether or to leave a not so great review. I tried contacting the narrator but no response 🤷‍♀️

breakaway

What's hotter than a gay man (men) in sports??? Nothing!! Sweat and pur exposed muscle- swooning!! I enjoyed the opposites attract theme too. Jayden's team support and comraderie was awesome. Sam's roommate just irked me! I was glad such nice guys got their hea. Great message and storyline. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life.

Repeats?

I was looking for some books to listen to while I traveled and was in the mood for some romance so I was trying to look at reviews of books and I seen one of this one saying there are repeating lines I LOVE mess ups and to be honest I was looking for some malicious fun but too bad there weren't ANY mess ups except for maybe two times in the end LET DOWN the story itself seems very rushed and like there should have been more to it why did the jock become so obsessed with the nerd?

Opposites attract!

My favorite troupe ..the nerd/athlete. A cute short story about a couple who over come a few prejudices. The narration could have been edited better, there was a few times the sentences were repeated.
