About this listen
They have ties that bind.
June grew up in the shadow of her brother and his best friend, Drew McKenna. She stood back while Drew dated his way through high school and college, watching and waiting. Waiting for him to realize he loved her as much as she loved him.
When he did, it was the happiest she'd ever been. Until she found him with another woman only five years after their marriage.
Leaving her husband was a simple decision, but there was no easy way to cut him out of her family. When June receives a fresh start to her career, she also finds what could be a new lease on love. Reality hits Drew with a vengeance.
He wants her back.
She wants to make him suffer.
Contains mature themes.

Now I'm spending every spare second with a man I thought I’d never see again.

Story
My father is a legend. Some call me football royalty, and in my hometown of Louisiana, I suppose I am. His legacy didn’t prepare me for Bryant Hudson. The quarterback. I swore I’d never date football players. Permanently. Yet Bryant had other plans. Three dates and a handful of conversations, I handed him my heart without realizing it. But, Bryant shatters my soul. I’m left picking up the pieces. If only erasing him from my heart was as easy.

Pine River was supposed to be a new start for me. And it was, especially attending school with my three overprotective cousins, who were the triplets at the top of the social hierarchy. Except they weren’t alone there, and the first day when I came to school, I saw him. Scout Raiden. Tall. Lean. Tattooed. Mesmerizing. He was a golden god with dark and piercing eyes—looking like he wanted to eat me up. The feeling was mutual, and that was a problem.

What's worse than having Rider Kingston, the star quarterback, give you the big brushoff because he doesn't want to get serious? You'd probably think living across the street from him where you get a firsthand view of his hookups, right? That's what I thought. Until someone drops off a baby with a note pinned to her blanket that says one of those jocks - either Rider or one of his roommates - is the father. The problem? Baby mama doesn't mention which of these numbskulls is the sperm donor. I wouldn't care about their paternity problems - except my brother lives there too.

Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. Also, how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

One of the cardinal rules of matchmaking I was positive I'd never break. That is until Nathan Wilder walked into Love Moore Matchmaking Agency, needing my help to find him the one. A tall order to ask since he was the most hated man in the NHL. Broody. Crude. Abrasive. The man was a six-foot-three walking red flag. Right off the bat, every fiber of my being told me he'd be trouble. He wasn't looking for love. It was all a PR stunt to clean up his image so he could keep playing for the Boston Guardians. But there was something in his sad, soulful eyes that just pulled me in.

Story
I once read that every warrior hoped an honorable death would find him. I always went looking for mine, but not even the Reaper wanted me. I was trained to kill. I was trained to not ask why. To take orders and just march in line. Hoo-ah motherf--ker. Life or death. Ride or die. And I'm not only talking about the military. I'm talking about the life that led me on the road to nowhere. My life. I fought for my brothers. I fought for my family. I fought for my country. And I fought for her...Never realizing I might die for them too.

I was eight years old when I found out I had a father. It was the same day I held my dead mother in my arms while praying her life wasn't really over. I was dropped into the middle of a new family not long after that...From the very beginning I was ostracized because of who my mother had been. The daughters of club members were generally known as MC Princesses. My little sister was one. My title was a bit different, and proved that my mom's sins would always be held against me. I was The Other Princess.

I've watched her for years without her knowing. In fact, she thinks I hate her, probably because I've worked hard to make her feel unwelcome. Wren knows I don't want her in my family. At least not as my son's wife. What she doesn't know is the reason why. See, I want her for myself. It should be my ring on her finger, not his. When my son betrays her, I'm there to pick up the pieces. I can't resist her any longer, but just because she isn't his doesn't mean I can keep her. After all, two wrongs don't make a right.

Really Good
I felt all the heartache of of the heroine. Finding your husband with an ex-girlfriend would be so hard and to find out they were regularly seeing each other. She made grovel. Good book!

Heartbreaking and healing at the same time
Loved this book when I read it but CJ Bloom really brought June to life. Felt I knew June better through this narration.

Heart wrenching journey
Great book on a plot line I never thought I would enjoy reading. Very angsty read, but if you are in mood for one this is an excellent choice. Performance was good but CJ Bloom seemed way too chipper at beginning and the tone of her read for several chapters didn’t fit story/scenes.

Beautiful and so emotional
I had to keep tissues at hand for this one… CJ Bloom was a top notch narrator, as usual, and her counterpart was perfect. Their story was heart-breaking but brought to life so perfectly. Listened to in one day as I could not stop. 🔥🔥🔥🔥index high aside from gut-wrenching emotions.

Finding Strength and Rebuilding Trust After Betrayal
I read this book last year when it was released and couldn’t wait to listen to the audiobook too (which I have done, three times in the past week).
This was the first book that I found that deals with infidelity in the moment. Not focusing on a character after the infidelity happened, but with the main character being caught with his pants down.
When we think of romance books, we don’t often or probably not at all, think of cheating as the main storyline. But it is a part of many relationships that happens often. Its effects on relationships vary from anger to heartache to emptiness to self-doubt to questioning your self-worth.
Drew and June’s story was written beautifully. I felt Drew’s pain, when he was faced with what his betrayal did to their marriage and was determined to put in the work. I did feel like the work that he was so willing to put in after the fact, should have been his go to before cheating. But the aftermath of June finding out was the catalyst to push to do what he should have always done.
Ahhh June! I connected with June in this story, because I was a June. I felt her pain as if it were my own, but to watch her grow into the strong capable woman she never knew she was, was a breath of fresh air! As sad as it may seem, if it were not for Drew’s infidelity, June would have likely still be in a holding state while Drew chased his career. She would never have found her purpose or identity without Drew had she not put herself first.
People are averse to reading romance books that have to do with cheating, but I would recommend this book every single time!

Oh, my heart hurts so good
I've been searching for more romance books that feature, love before, and after infidelity and heartbreak. This book has it all. My heart broke so many times that I quit counting. I just became familiar with the ache in my chest and butterflies in my stomach. Thank you for writing such an amazing book. I'm looking forward to the next.

Emotional Listen
I finally read this one... Or should I say, I listened to the audio! I really enjoyed this audio! The narrators do an awesome job with the emotions in this book.
I have been putting this one off because one of the tropes in the book is not my favorite to read. I am so happy I finally gave this book a chance.
This book is a marriage in trouble with characters that you may not like at first. But I liked Drew through this entire book, I didn't agree with his actions. He is one you will grow to love!
June is the character that your heart will break for, and through this book, I loved seeing her grow into the woman she should have always been. She is so strong and confident towards the end, and her husband helped her to get there.
Even through heartache and everything, these two belong together. I loved the way this book ended. And I can't wait to get into the next book.

I want to hate Drew but I can't. Incredible story!
I'm so conflicted. I want to hate Drew after what he did to June but that man worked his butt off to earn forgiveness and get his wife back. I can't get down with his reasoning for cheating because if he had just talked to his wife, the woman he claimed was his everything, he would've had what he was seeking from her all along instead of getting it from other woman.
I'm so glad June grew a backbone when it came to their marriage and her worth. The concern was real that she was going to just go running right back.
As crazy and wrong as it was, Noah coming into June's life likely saved their marriage. My jaw literally dropped when Drew brought Noah home with him and what ensued after.
CJ Bloom and Edward Black were incredible as this broken couple. There was so much angst and emotions I was scared that the ending wouldn't be what I wanted. I am so glad I stumbled across this audiobook and series because I am hooked. I'm already listening to book 2, Brutal Play and WOW!

Amazing story line
You find a lot of sports books all follow a similar story time. This one DOES NOT. It is one gripping store that I could read over and over. Can’t wait to see what next.
