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.

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.

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.

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.
