About this listen

He’s in black ice skates, ripped black jeans, and a yellow and black New Brunswick Wolverines shirt that fills out his vast shoulders, brawn biceps, flat torso, and anything else he has going down underneath his shirt.
Reid doesn’t utter a word when he stops within two feet of me, even taller and more intimidating than yesterday because I think being on the ice is his superpower, and he looks like he can do anything on it.

My life takes an unexpected turn when I meet Reid "The Reaper" Pierce- the grumpy enforcer for the New Brunswick Wolverines.

When the gorgeous hockey bad boy is slapped with a fifteen-game suspension, he is forced to rebuild his tarnished image.

Reid reluctantly becomes an assistant coach for a youth hockey team.

A challenge, to say the least, for the broody, alpha left winger, given his lack of kid-friendly skills.

Enter me: Hollyn Mayfield.

I'm sunshine with a dash of nerdiness and a touch of self-consciousness.

I find myself thrust into the role of the other assistant coach.

My expertise? Mostly handing out juice boxes and snacks to kids during practice.

An unlikely duo, we strike a deal.

I'll help him ease up on the kids, reducing post-practice tears and parent complaints.

In return, he'll assist me in scoring a date with my crush, the head coach Weston Higgins.

Weston, as Reid points out, is a B-class wannabe.

Despite this, I remain determined to snag that date.

Reid agrees to teach me about hockey, hoping it will help me connect with Weston.

Along the way, though, he might want to keep me with his jersey number on my back.

Falling for the Pucking Grump is a Grumpy/Sunshine, Guy Falls First, Hockey Romance. This is Book 1 in the standalone series New Brunswick Wolverines.

AI is terrible as a narrator

Loved the book but hard to follow due to AI only reading in a female voice. Also AI was super monotoned. Please have a real person read the book. It would be much more enjoyable

the tension between the two main male characters

I liked the reverse harem part but it was very rushed. The beginning was long and steady while the ended was abrupt and sudden

decent story, bad AI....

This was a decent story, held my attention, but the AI narrative was terrible. If we are starting to replace human narration then I'll cancel my subscription.

Horrible AI

The story was cute and the back and forth banter between characters was good. But the AI destroyed it all.

Terrible narration

The story was decent but the AI narration ruined it for me. I've listened to other audiobooks with AI narration that were okay but this one is the worst. No distinction between character voices, close to monotone in parts. It really brought the experience down.
