About this listen
I’m the bad boy of baseball. And she’s the good girl who’s meant to repair my image. Falling in love with my pretend girlfriend is not part of the plan…
My life is a mess. My career is in serious jeopardy because of one stupid decision that had disastrous results. I’m stuck on the injured list, for who knows how long, and losing endorsements because of my reckless behaviour.
It’s only a matter of time before my team decides I’m too much trouble to keep around.
The last thing I should be doing is swooping in to rescue a perfect stranger from some jerk at a bar—because of course a photo gets taken of her in my arms.
Now the last shot I have at holding onto everything that matters, is a curvy redhead who has no idea who I am and isn’t all that impressed by the mess I’ve thrown her into.
For some reason Sadie agrees to help me, and now I’m forced to spend time with a woman who might be the only person to see the real me. A lot of time. Even more so when she moves into my apartment.
With every fake date we go on, her warmth and smiles start to chip away at the ice around my heart. But what can I offer a woman like her? I’m nothing but a reckless asshole and a cocky baseball player with a past I’d rather no one knew about. I don’t let people get close to me, I don’t do relationships.
But when our arrangement comes to an end, I can’t bring myself to walk away.
How can I convince my fake girlfriend to give me a real chance when the secrets from my past won’t stay hidden?

Story
It’s not easy being a woman working in a male dominated field. Add in the fact that my uncle owns the baseball team I work for, and proving I belong here is a constant battle. Dating a player was never an option. Not if I wanted to keep a shred of dignity and respect. Then Ronan Sinclair sits down next to me in first class with his alluring blue eyes and hard-to-resist dimples. To say nothing of his kindness and charm, or his determination to convince me that a steamy vacation fling is what we both need.

Story
I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates. Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now. Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

Jon Paul Dumont is everything I was warned about in this league—talented, entitled, and fully aware of both. The NHL's favorite bad boy has left a trail of broken hearts from Montreal to San Diego, and a year ago, I was stupid enough to become one of them. Now he's signed with my father's team, the Seattle Hawkeyes, attempting a comeback after a career-threatening injury and a DUI charge that got him dropped from the Blue Devils.

I never thought I’d be a runaway bride. But when it came down to it, I just couldn’t marry the wrong man. So, I ran. And somehow, I ended up in Star Falls, Colorado—stranded, no luggage, no plan—in a wedding dress with a past I’d rather forget. Fate lands me in the only available rental in town, a cozy little cabin… right next door to Byron Miller, the brooding billionaire who wants nothing to do with me. Or this town.

Story
Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

I had an early morning and the season was starting soon. But when she threatened me with boy band karaoke, I couldn't help myself. I went. The stars aligned. I have never felt more alive or wanted anyone more than I want her.

As a single father, I often feel like the weight of the world sits on my shoulders. When my daughter’s nanny gives me her two weeks’ notice, I’m sweating bullets. Fear that my NHL season with the New England Bay Sharks could be derailed consumes me. Finding a replacement seems impossible when, suddenly, Maci McKenzie—a struggling author who’s running from some deep, dark secret in her past—steps into the picture. She needs a change of scenery to help her write, and I just need someone who isn’t a complete weirdo to watch my kid when I’m not around.

A forbidden romance with my brother’s hockey teammate wasn’t on my to-do list when I moved across the country… Neither was getting locked out of a friend’s place wearing next to nothing. Or spending the night with the sexy stranger who rescues me. But I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone so getting out of the rest of my clothes with him seems like a good way to start. In the morning, I learn the filthy-mouthed man with the talented hands is not only the hotshot new hockey player on my brother’s team: he’s also–wait for it–my brand new roommate.

Lennox Kennedy is beautiful, loud, and the love of my life. She's also my ex-girlfriend. The first time I saw her after ten years apart, I slammed into the plexiglass minutes before our game was set to begin. The second time I threw up. The third time's a charm apparently because as my fiancée and I walked into an appointment to meet the woman hired to plan our nuptials—there she was again. Obviously, I did what any smart man would do—I called off the wedding. I don't have a plan per se, other than winning back the only girl I've ever loved.

The risk blindsided me five years ago when I lost one of my crew and was changed forever. Now the only rewards I allow are to work harder, smarter, and enjoy easy, sexy nights with strangers. Until I meet Prescott Timmons. Her smart-mouth and adventurous spirit have me forgetting all of my rules—until her past shows up and lies start to feel too familiar.

Accepting that inevitability is very different from embracing it. That's the only thing they agree upon. It was meant to be a union for better and for business.

Two years ago, I chose him over me. Just because I was stuck in this small town, living a small-town life, didn't mean he had to be stuck, too. He had so much talent, and he was destined to do big things, but I knew he'd never leave without me. Not unless I made him. I knew it would break his heart, but it was the price I'd have to pay for his freedom.

Except....It turns out, he’s Denver Gilchrist, lead singer of the Road Kings, the legendary band that broke up five years ago. How was I supposed to know I was sleeping with a genius rock god? I’m just a piano teacher who plays jazz on Thursday nights. I have a happy, single life with my cat. I don’t need Denver’s brand of chaos. But now, I’m addicted. And so is he.

Story
Two years ago, I chose him over me. Just because I was stuck in this small town, living a small-town life, didn't mean he had to be stuck, too. He had so much talent, and he was destined to do big things, but I knew he'd never leave without me. Not unless I made him. I knew it would break his heart, but it was the price I'd have to pay for his freedom.

Story
I did something I’ve never done. I couldn’t help it. The man I met at the bar was too gorgeous, too fascinating, too sexy. The next thing I knew, we had a one-night stand. Except....It turns out, he’s Denver Gilchrist, lead singer of the Road Kings, the legendary band that broke up five years ago. How was I supposed to know I was sleeping with a genius rock god? I’m just a piano teacher who plays jazz on Thursday nights. I have a happy, single life with my cat. I don’t need Denver’s brand of chaos. But now, I’m addicted. And so is he.

Sleeping with the NFL quarterback who the media has dubbed Mr. Perfect might not have been the smartest move, but I’m in the City of Love, I’d had a few drinks, and was jacked up on giddy girl talk and hopeful hearts—two things I never buy into—and I threw caution to the wind. I want to sneak out before he wakes up, but when I open my eyes, he’s already up. In more ways than one.

I, Drake Colter, solemnly swear I DO NOT WANT a girlfriend . . . Carefree and ridiculously good-looking, I have the entire student body eating from the palm of my hand—shouldn't I let the ladies on campus have their fill rather than being tied down? If only my brother Drew would take notes from my playbook. As identical twins, we share the same voice, the same face, and the same physique; it's virtually impossible to tell us apart—but that's where the similarities end.

But we were wrong. Everything turned to crap our senior year of high school.

Heather Firth and Dane Anderson were terrific as Sadie and Maverick. Heather gave a passionate and delightful performance to bring Sadie to life. Dane’s growly & gruff timbre was perfect for the broken, crunchy cinnamon roll Maverick. I enjoyed the balance of Heather and Dane’s styles and energy. These two make a wonderful duo, and I hope to hear more titles with this narration team soon!

Maverick and Sadie were absolutely adorable. I loved this couple so much! They complemented one another. I loved the Opposites attract type vibes. Him the bad boy and her the good girl! He brought out a side in Sadie that dared her to be who she was, and let her see she was worthy and perfect. Sadie grounded Maverick. She was so good for him! She understood him better than anyone. Taking him by surprise, with her unconditional love. Watching both of them transform and turn into this swoony couple was epic!! They really were a great couple!

Maverick and Sadie start out as a fake relationship for a publicity stunt to clean up his image, but there is so much more to this bad boy of baseball than what the public thinks of him! Little by little, we get to see the real Maverick underneath the facade, and the guy runs deep. I loved the vulnerability he showed with Sadie. The guy is carrying around some major trauma as a result of his childhood — and while his past ultimately impacts their relationship moving forward, it doesn't take him long to realize how good of a thing he has with Sadie and put in the work to make sure he can right the wrong he made.
Sadie gets something out of their fake relationship as well: getting her ex off her back. She grows so much during her time with Maverick, and it was wonderful to see her stand up to her slimy ex. (And I think when Maverick went all alpha on him, it was one of my favorite scenes!)
Narrators Heather Firth and Dane Anderson are not ones that I am very familiar with, but I completely got swept away listening to them. Dane's deep, growly voice was mesmerizing; I loved listening to him capture Maverick's angst, insecurities, and trust issues. Likewise, Heather did a great job in voicing Sadie's genuine care for Maverick as she got to know the man underneath the bad boy,
I am really enjoying this series! I can't wait for the next one. I received an advanced listening copy and voluntarily left a review.

The narration by Heather Firth and Dane Anderson? Absolutely on point. Heather nailed Sadie's voice, giving her warmth and sass, while Dane brought Maverick's cocky, tortured charm to life. Their dual narration was seamless and made the slow-burn romance even more captivating. They really knew how to hit all the emotional notes and kept me hooked from start to finish.
If you're into steamy, Grumpy / Sunshine romance with a dash of redemption, this one’s a must-listen.

Maverick King is the bad boy of the Tridents and is on the IR after an accident that not everyone knows the truth about. Now he’s on the hot seat with the team and needs to prove that he’s serious about playing. When out one night, he steps in to save a woman who was getting harassed by a man. Sadie is done with her ex and is happy when Maverick steps in to help her. And the last thing she was expecting the next day was the press getting a picture and saying that they were together. Maverick’s agent thinks this is what will help with his image so the two agree to start fake dating.
I absolutely loved Maverick and Sadie. Grumpy/Sunshine will always be one of my favorite troupes. Maverick is closed off and has a wall built around him but he had a tough childhood in foster care so he kept people out for that reason. He doesn’t let many people in except his foster brothers who he was still close with. Under that is a guy who is a born protector and I loved how he was that way instantly with Sadie. Sadie has a big heart and I loved her from the beginning. She is genuine and someone I could be friends with in real life. When they first started fake dating, it was awkward and that made me happy because it made it more realistic. But once they got to know each other, the chemistry started building and I couldn't wait for them to give into their feelings. Sadie was the safe spot Maverick needed and he was the confidence she needed. They balanced each other out perfectly and I loved them together so much.
Dane Anderson and Heather Firth narrated as Maverick and Sadie and I loved listening to them so much. Dane’s narration was growly and protective just like Maverick. Heather was amazing as Sadie, she brought her genuine and caring personality to life perfectly. These two were great together and the perfect choices to bring this audiobook to life.

Maverick is the bad boy of baseball and he needs to rebuild his image. While at a bar one night he helps Sadie when her ex-boyfriend won't leave her alone by pretending to be her fake boyfriend. These two get into a deal helping each other out by faking a relationship.
Sadie and Maverick are as of this moment one of my favorite fake relationship characters. I just loved everything about how they came together and how Mav was so protective and caring toward Sadie. These two will make you smile so much you won't be able to move your cheeks because they hurt so much. I found myself swooning like crazy over Mav. He was just the sweetest man. I loved how she opened Mav up and helped him heal his past. It's such a beautiful story that will have your heart melting. You will also have plenty of laugh out loud moments and some spice.
I highly recommend this book and series! I can't wait to listen to the next book in this series. Julia Jarrett will now be a must read or listen to author for me!
I LOVE this series! Highly Recommended!

Dane Anderson and Heather Firth are the story tellers for this one and they are amazing together. Perfectly cast, the characters come alive with their voices. Anderson plays the broody Mav and he brings out all of his grumpiness and turns it to the teddy bear he is. Firth is Sadie, and her heart shows from the start. She finds the essence of Sadie and brings her kindness and love through. Loved this performance.
It's a home run!

I didn’t think I would enjoy anything as much as I did book one of this series. However, I was proven wrong. I couldn’t get enough of Maverick and Sadie’s story. Their first meeting is tense to say the least and later he saves her from an uncomfortable encounter with her ex in a bar. They are photographed together and decide if they play along, the mistake could benefit them both. Let the fake dating begin!
This is so much more than a fake-dating, grumpy / sunshine romance. Sadie is the quiet, conservative beauty, and the perfect foil to baseball’s misunderstood bad boy, Maverick. He needs her help to improve his image after an accident off the field leaving him injured and his contract in jeopardy with the team. This is a slow burn, and I enjoyed that it wasn’t an instalove situation once they start fake dating. These are two people with real trust issues and walls built up and complicated pasts to work through. The more I learned about these two and their pasts, the more I was rooting for them and their HEA. He helped her stand up for herself and blossom. She helped with his trust issues, that led to more camaraderie with his teammates.
This can absolutely be read as a standalone but there are appearances of characters from the previous book that I always appreciate. Plus, it’s a real hoot when he ‘handles’ her ex.
Narrated by Dane Anderson and Heather Firth. Both are new to me, and I really liked their performances. I’ll be sure to look for more from these two.
Overall, this was more emotional than I expected, and I loved it. This is a redemption story with a lot of heart, humor and sense of found family. I can’t wait for the next installment.
This series just keeps getting better.
