About this listen
In the game of love, who will melt first?
LUKE: No one seems to comprehend the pressures of playing for an NCAA college hockey team and being in the pre-med program. With the NHL draft and graduation looming, I can’t handle any distractions in my life. Discipline and focus are my two best friends. The absolute last thing I need my senior year is to be roped into some campus social media project with a sexy junior who changes majors more times than she does clothes. Yet here I am, posing for a calendar I had no intention of participating in, attending parties, and making out, among other things, in public. And yeah, if I’m smiling the whole way, it must be because I’ve finally cracked. That’s the only explanation why I’ve let Jax sashay her way into my every thought. Puck me! My world has been irrevocably turned upside down once already, and I won’t let it happen again—even if it means becoming the “Ice Man” that everyone calls me.
JAX: It might have taken me three years to decide on a major, but I’ve got it all figured out now, and I’m going to win a coveted communications internship too. I just need the grumpy hockey captain to relax a bit and help me help his team. So what if I know diddly about the game and that he won’t even let me past the front door? I’ve got this! And if I’m shivering at his touch, it’s because he’s so cold, not because he makes me hot. Nope, despite the rumors circulating on campus, we’re only spending every waking minute together because of my assignment, that’s all. Although, maybe we’re dating? I don’t know, but I plan to find out! Because it’s starting to feel real, especially his kisses. Yup, I’m totally pucked!

It’s Valentine’s Day weekend, and Charlotte and Seth are not looking for romance. Armed with emotional-support bear spray, Charlotte is in self-imposed isolation and on guard from men. Having a stalker can do that to a person’s nerves. Just across the hall and giving off woodsy vibes is Seth, a recently divorced arborist. As in today recently. Heights, he’s fine with. Trust? Not so much.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,614
Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Liv’s happy with life in her thirties. She has two cats, one BFF, and no boyfriend, which is just how she likes it. Plus, she loves working at a not-for-profit software company where she can be her authentically autistic self. This is her happy ever after. But when her beloved firm merges with a repulsive rival, Liv finds herself competing with her sort-of-ex for the top job. Sure, Finn had been Liv’s best friend, with his nerdy good looks and their shared love of Tolkien, but there was that one night, their song, and … well, she doesn’t like to talk about it.

Meet Randi Burnett—she’s brilliant, she’s beautiful, and she works for the bride. Missing groom? Intoxicated in-laws? Crying ring-bearer? You name it, she wrangles it.

Excellent performance by narrators
Audio review: I love dual narration. It really adds to a story, and these narrators were excellent. They were each clear and easy to understand and it felt like they almost BECAME the characters. The performance elevated a four-star story into a five-star audiobook.
Story review:
MMC/FMC- Luke and Jax
POV- 1st person dual
Genre- Contemporary Romance
Sub Genre- Sports Romance (hockey)
Heat- 🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋. They do the thing after a lot of buildup.
Series? Y
Safety? Y
Triggers- Explicit Erotic Content, Language, On-Ice Violence (because hockey )
Tropes- Grumpy/Sunshine, Forced Proximity, College Romance, New Adult, Opposites Attract.
What I liked- this book was unusual in New Adult Romance in that there wasn’t wangst. The heroine was likable. The hero was intriguing. And it was sweet to see them fall for each other. This book is also proof that it’s not doing the actual deed that makes the book hot; this book was insanely hot because of the build up, from even before the first kiss.

Flirty and fun!!
These narrators were good! And absolutely nailed this book!! This was such a fun read! It was also a pretty quick read. I wish there had been more actual spice scenes but even the flirty banter back and forth was spicy! I don’t usually read sports romance but I ended up realllly enjoying this one!! I’d absolutely recommend reading this!!!.

Perfect Name!
Awe! I loved this audiobook! Jax and Luke were so adorable. Jax is a TT influencer and college student. Luke is the captain of the college hockey team. 🤔😆
I loved the slow burn, but somehow, a little insta love, but their love story was adorable. I have to say, I can't wait until hockey season. 😂
The narrators were top notch, and I absolutely applaud you for having a dual narration! I adore when you feel like they were in the same booth recording!
I would have loved just a little more courtship, but that's just a me problem. 😂
Talk about the last 20 mins! 🌶😂❤️

A Romantic, Steamy College Romance
Thank you to Tara September for allowing me to listen to a copy of this book. I absolutely loved my time listening to this. I adored Jax and Luke's relationship and their character development throughout the book. And I love how each books nods to the other characters, and has them appear as they experience their own stories. I read Blinded Me With Science after this, and I cannot wait to read them in order and re-experience it again. I cannot recommend this series enough because each story is truly their own story, but they interconnect. And I loved Thatcher College and the world created in this series. I cannot wait to read more from this series and from Tara in the future.

Hot
Loved the dual narration of Laura Horowitz and Aaron Shedlock.
Luke is a college hockey player who is heading to go pro after graduation. Jax is strait-laced and grumpy. Jax she is the opposite full of light and sunshine. They’re forced to work together and before he knows he is falling for the smart and strong woman.
Jax can not believe the grumpy hockey play is getting under her skin.
This book has humour, angst, tension, and romance.

Luke, the man we ALL dream of!
What could go wrong with a hockey romance story from enemies to lovers? Absolutely loved the FMC Jax and the Hockey hunk Luke. Jax is a hard working student trying to land an internship. She’s been busy dating all the wrong guys, until she meets Luke. After his mothers passing, he took his college courses very seriously. He promised to finish college first, before becoming professional. I admire his spirit, drive and willing to prove everything right to win her heart. Jax and Luke are the typical fake daters, but eventually things start to heat up! Will they be able juggle internships, professional hockey, college courses and possible real, true love? Hope you get to enjoy this lovely audiobook as much as I have!

Jack vs Luke
This is such a fun cute love story of enemies to friends in a short novella. I liked both the main characters and how Jack is a wild child, Luke the polar opposite. I would recommend this story and loved the happily ever after.

Dual narration for the win
Hot and Cold is the third book in the Lesson in Love series and can be read/ listened to as a standalone story. A good amount of spicy and the perfect amount of backstory makes this book a great read/listen. Jax (Jaquline) is in the running for a communications internship for her major and has to work at improving the following of the hockey team's social media. Her point of contact is none other than the captain and the guy she had a not so friendly run in with the day before.
new adult, college hocky, enemies to lovers, spicy, dual narration.

Opposites Attract - Combustibly So!
“Ice Man” Luke and Jax are opposites brought together by circumstance and a class project. I loved the banter between these two, and the frustration aspects were incredibly hot! So many great secondary characters, so much amazing chemistry between Luke and Jax - this was a fantastic read!
And the audiobook was even better - Laura Horowitz and Aaron Shedlock did an amazing job as Jax and Luke.
