About this listen
One bet. One spark. One chance.
Gabe
I’ve spent years as the Warriors’ goalie, holding the line under pressure. But off the ice, my life’s a disaster. After dating too many men who only saw me as an NHL trophy, I’ve sworn off romance—until Brody skates into my life. He’s newly traded to the team, ten years younger, and carrying the weight of the world.
I should keep my distance, but every stolen glance, every unguarded smile pulls me in. A playful bet pushes me to take a chance with Brody, though I’m risking more than my heart.
Brody
Being traded to Buffalo was supposed to be my fresh start, an escape after my old team turned on me. Now, I have one goal: keep my head down so I can play hockey.
Enter Gabe: confident, relentless, and far too good at breaking through my walls. I can’t let myself want him. But when he’s around, I forget every reason I should walk away.
One spark turns into something neither of us can ignore. But will falling for each other be the ultimate win—or the one loss we can’t afford?
Net Bet is the second standalone in the fantastic Buffalo Warriors Hockey series. It features a bisexual defenseman with a traumatic past, a lonely goalie looking for love, and found family in the form of a nosy yet supportive hockey team. Packed with high heat, dirty talk, first times, forced proximity, angst, an age gap, and a hard-earned HEA, this story delivers all the feels.

Story
What’s a straight guy to do when he accidentally goes on a date with his brand new gym-bro? Offer to be the best wingman ever, of course! It’s foolproof. Joey needs a man? I’ll find him one. He wants someone who looks, well, kind of like me? No problem! Not into watersports? I’ve got him covered. The issue is, going on all these dates with Joey makes me realize I want more of his time to be spent with me. I like the guy. And his smile. And the way he makes me feel like anything is possible.

Everyone is friendly—well, almost everyone. Gorgeous Gil Navarro, the owner of the spice shop across the street, comes in every morning for a muffin but barely looks at him and never says a word.

Sometimes I want to punch that smirk off Atlas McCallister's pretty face. He's cocky. A troublemaker. A pain. And, unfortunately, my stepbrother. We've been fire and kerosene since our parents got together, and to keep from exploding into fistfights, we've used challenges, dares, and bets to battle out our differences. Our past bets have been a little inappropriate—scandalous, even—but Atlas's latest bet has gone too far. Do I really believe if he loses, my straight stepbrother is gonna mess around with a guy? And not just any guy: me, his rival and nemesis?

I was drowning in debt and my sister needed help, so I made a terrible choice. I borrowed money from the infamous Marchesi family, knowing I had no way to pay them back. Did I think I could evade them? Did I think I’d win the lottery? No, I didn’t think at all. I just acted. Now, a killer is at my door, a man known for his ruthlessness, his persistence, and the way he can bring a man to his knees–for business or pleasure. I’ve got to find a way to pay him back, and the only thing I own free and clear is my body.

I'm trapped in the middle of nowhere with the sexiest man I've ever seen... what could possibly go wrong? My family sent me here thinking it would help lift my mood. When I think about it now, I realise I didn’t give nearly enough thought to what it would be like, or what I’d be doing on a farm. If anything, I had a vague, nebulous notion that it would be like some sort of retreat. Boy, was I wrong. Far from relaxing, I now find myself tending to actual sheep. If you knew me at all, you’d know how preposterous that is.

Moving home to Kither Springs to help my sister with her baby wasn’t a hardship. I love being with my family, but a few months of sleeping on the couch really takes a toll on you. I desperately needed to move out, but while I was away, my hometown became ‘viral famous.’ A rush of people had clamored to our town, looking for a taste of small-town life, which means less housing. When an apartment finally becomes available, I’m not the only one interested in it, but maybe that’s not such a bad thing…

Story
Moving home to Kither Springs to help my sister with her baby wasn’t a hardship. I love being with my family, but a few months of sleeping on the couch really takes a toll on you. I desperately needed to move out, but while I was away, my hometown became ‘viral famous.’ A rush of people had clamored to our town, looking for a taste of small-town life, which means less housing. When an apartment finally becomes available, I’m not the only one interested in it, but maybe that’s not such a bad thing…

Story
My life hasn't turned out the way I wanted it to. Because of one stupid stunt by a kid I used to care about, I'm now slinging cocktails in a Miami club instead of getting my degree. In a split second, Everest Hill ruined my future, and I'm too jaded to ever move past it. Only Elton—my best friend and his brother—connects us, but thankfully, Everest has made himself irrelevant in the last four years. Until now. When Elton heads off on a summer European adventure, I'm forced to babysit his little brother through his first semester in college, but I'd rather eat shattered glass.

Maxwell Thornton isn’t a people person, but that never mattered to him because he’d lived for his job. After losing a patient during an operation, he’s afraid to pick up the scalpel again. He resigns his position in the city and takes a job as sole GP in the isolated town of Rainy Dale, Texas, population 1,001. Rainy Dale is populated with eccentrics who test his patience and seem to think he’s not only there to treat their illnesses, but that he’s also there to be their therapist. When one of his most annoying patients ends up dead in his pool, he has some explaining to do.

5 star listen
Ryan Taylor and Joshua Harwood have done it again with Net Bet. The chemistry between Gabe and Brody is electric, and their emotional journey is deeply engaging. The tension, playful banter, and heart-wrenching moments make their love story incredibly authentic.
Watching them fight for their relationship and ultimately find happiness together is perfection. The team's camaraderie brings humor, support, and warmth, while the hockey scenes add thrilling excitement—especially that game-winning goal.
Taylor and Harwood masterfully create characters you'll wish were your friends. Their genuine depiction of mental health is expertly handled.
Don't miss out on this audiobook narrated by Alexander Cendese. It's a blend of passion, emotion, humor, and unforgettable moments. If I could rate it higher than 5 stars, I would.

Loved It!
Alexander Cendese did such an amazing job in portraying Gabe and Brody. I read the book and then listened to it and it just brought an entire different element to their story. 100% recommend you won’t regret it. It’s such an amazing story.

Good Stuff
I enjoyed this audiobook book and the story it told. Many of the scenes were very romantic and sexy which was a plus. The only drawback for me was the performance. Throughout the book I felt as if the narrator was speed reading and was in a hurry to get to the end. This in itself took away from the overall experience.

Reduce the speed
Narration is very fast and hurried - if you reduce to 0.90 speed, it’s not too bad

Love Gabe and Brody 🥰
I absolutely loved Gabe and Brody's phenomenal story written by author duo Ryan Taylor and Joshua Harwood. Gabe and Brody are absolutely everything! Gabe is tired of the meaningless hookups and Brody has lots of hurt and past trauma from his old hockey team. Once he gets to Buffalo and his new hockey team, the Buffalo Warriors, he swears not to get involved with another teammate but that all changes when he meets Warriors goalie, Gabe.

3rd act
The most ridiculous 3rd act break-up. I should have DNF'd at that point. The MMCs were sweet but it just ruined it for me.

The Narrator-UGH😩
I love these authors, I really do. And I really tried to listen to this audio, but I just can’t with Alexander Cendese. He has a nice voice but he’s so intense-like he’s jacked up on… I can almost see his eyes popping out of his head while he’s reading. He’s like that coworker who’s always the loudest most obnoxious guy at the office happy hour. I can’t really tell you what happened in this story because I was stressed out listening to him. I started and rewound a bunch of times but I still couldn’t pay attention. Maybe he’s ok to play like a high school football player, but not a 30 something yo man. Even the sexy times were not. I’ll be returning this audio.
