Publisher's summary

This year is my last chance to take the Titans to victory. I cost us the cup last year, but I'm not making the same mistake again. And I'm determined to get drafted by the end of this season.

The success I anticipate is built on three years of razor-sharp focus and hard-earned respect. Not to mention how much of my personal life I sacrificed for hockey. The Titans trust me to lead them and I won't betray that. Nothing could possibly go wrong.

Until the former love of my life and current arch nemesis, Cameron Martinez, skates back into my life. His very presence throws me off balance. His intense gaze and aggressive, dominant, and possessive streaks feel like a lasso pulling me toward him.

It only takes so many shared showers and locker room encounters before I'm too weak to continue resisting this pull.

But we both know there is no future for us. Our ambitions have always left a trail of ruin and heartbreak in their wake. Why should this time be any different?

Except I can't think straight when he's around. And every private moment we share makes me forget why I'm even here in the first place.

Contains mature themes.

Cute but Rushed

It was hard for me to distinguish between who was talking between the two MCs. They sounded the same to me. There were also times when one would be thinking but I thought they were speaking. It was frustrating.

Something about this book just did not hit the spot for me. It was cute but I cannot exactly put my finger on what was missing. It felt rushed.

Cute but Not very original

Cute story but not very original. Great if you need mindless HEA fluff with a small side of kink.

Narrator is too slow

Liked the story but not the narrator. After increasing the speed it was OK and I enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed this

This was my first Hayden Hall book and my first intro to the performer Curtis Michael Holland. Thanks to his performance (I had to speed him up a notch) I ended up enjoying this even more than I thought I would. There were reasonably spicy scenes and I overall enjoyed the journey Riley and Cameron had on the way to their HEA.

4 stars - worthy of a repeat listen

Awful narration.

The voice was all wrong for this story. The narrator also had too much saliva in his mouth and you could hear it. Cringe worthy. It’s hard to even rate the story and separate it from the narration.
