A Great Ending to the Carolina Comets Series

Neutral Zone is the last book in the Carolina Comets series, and this is Fitz and Rosie’s book. Rosie works on the donuts food truck, but she wants to own a bakery. She also works as cam girl at night, and Fitz subscribes to her as his particular kink is voyeurism.

Rosie and Fitz are mutually pining for each other until Halloween. They are hot together, but Rosie needed to figure out to love herself without Fitz. Rosie was fat shamed on page but not by Fitz, and she had to deal with it. The romance was cute and I enjoyed the story.

Love these hockey players

* Hockey Romance
* Hidden Identity
* Cam Girl
* Stand-alone (Interconnected series)

Audiobook review - narrated by: Tim Paige and Callie Dalton

3.5 stars for story
5 stars for performance

I really love this series because the hockey players on this team are so lovable and fun. Fitz is no different. We finally get a good look into his life and his likes and dislikes. One of those likes has given him an insight into Rosie’s secret job as a cam girl. My favorite part of the story is how accepting both Fitz and Rosie are with each other.

The narration is so good. I appreciate both Tim Paige and Callie Dalton for the attention to detail. The smallest nuances make the biggest difference and these two are amazing at it. It is hard to binge this series though because the same two narrators are used for each book. They are great though!!

Loved it

I am not ready for this series to end but if it had to this was the way to do it. I loved how the author brought these characters to life. I loved the character’s journeys of self acceptance and the beauty of finding someone who loved them completely. The spicy bits were great but my favorite part was the love story.

I’m really struggling to describe this book and why you should read it without giving anything away so I’m going to say just read it. You won’t regret it.

Stand Alone Hockey Romance With Shy Hero

Audiobook Review
Narrators: Tim Paige & Callie Dalton

Tropes:
-Hockey Romance
-Cam girl Heroine/ Shy Hero
-Cute Pet
-Big Fun Friend Group

I listened to this as a standalone and although many of the previous couples are mentioned I did not feel confused about the plot at all.
This book follows Fitz (a hockey player) and Rosie (a Donut food truck worked by day and a cam girl by night). Fitz is a shy guy who prefers to "watch". Rosie has always had a little crush on him.
The narrators both played their characters well! They brought the cute banter, spicy moments and a little bit of heartache.

Thank you to Valentine PR for the free audiobook. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Great ending to the series

Neutral Zone is the 7th book in the Carolina Comets Series but can be read as a standalone.

If you have read any of the previous books in the series, you know Fitz, or Ivan Fitzgerald as one of the hockey players for the Carolina Comets. Behind that persona is a guy who is shy, awkward and tries to avoid social gatherings, but he also has had a hard time dating.
Rosie has been in the previous books as well. She’s a baker by day, helps out at the Donut truck but by night she’s a cam girl perusing her business degree. She wasn’t always this outgoing but her past relationships and interactions allowed her to find herself through this new adventure.
Nothing like a hidden identity to bring these two together. As they start dating, he knows her identity but hides it from her. That doesn’t fair well for him later. In the meantime they are falling in love, until her past gets in the way and it makes it a slightly bumpy ride. I love that even though they had their differences at one point they were able to grow. If you love hockey, or reading about hockey I highly recommend the whole series. I mean who doesn’t love a NHL player, a strong, sexy, and sassy heroine. With a touch of slow burn, online romance, comedic banter, and some slight angst, a cam girl, and voyeurism. This rom com is sassy, sexy, with lots of banter. And, I loved reading all the secondary characters that made appearances from previous books. And, the ending of the book gives us the story line for Teagan’s new series the Seattle Serpents. The audiobook was narrated by Tim Paige and Callie Dalton. They did a great job at bringing all the characters to life. It was easy to listen to them.

A spicy twist on the secret pen pal trope!

Fitz gets a book!!!!!!! I am so thankful to have gotten an audio copy of Neutral zone from Teagan Hunter and Valentine PR. I loved Fitz and Rosie’s story so much.
 
We’ve met Fitz and Rosie before in other books in the Carolina Comets series. Fitz is a star hockey player on the Caroline Comets and Rosie is a baker who works at Scout’s Sweets (the donut truck) that has a little side business going on. Fitz has been a big fan of Rosie’s streaming channel and they DM constantly, but Fitz knows who’s on the other side and Rosie has no clue she’s talking to her crush. When things begin to heat up in person, can the two of them overcome that little secret Fitz has been hiding?
 
This book was super cute. The banter was great, there were some laugh out loud moments, and the romance was amazing. I love the secret pen pal trope and the twist on this one made it extra good in my opinion. This was a great audiobook and I really enjoyed this addition to the series!

A fun, steamy listen!

I listened to the audio version of this book narrated by Tim Paige and Callie Dalton. The narration was pleasant and the voices were perfect for the parts of the characters.

This was a pretty steamy (4/5) sports romance. Rosie and Ivan were definitely on each other's radar before they actually did anything about it. I loved that Ivan was sort of shy and hesitant at first and that he kept saying stupid things to her. It was really cute. Rosie was finally a little more aggressive in talking to him and getting things rolling. They definitely had some communication issues (enter Carl, Ivan's female cat). This was definitely a fun listen!

Thanks to Valentine PR for the gifted copy of this audiobook. All thoughts are my own.

You saw through every mask I ever wore. You see me

Neutral Zone was a fun, flirty, and spicy addition to the Carolina Comets series. Fitz and Rosie’s story was completely different than what I expected, but their journey was still emotional and I loved this pairing so much. They were perfectly matched.

Rosie had struggled to feel seen and accepted in her past so she’s tried to break free from her past misconceptions. She’s feisty and independent, but deep down, she’s insecure and unsure of herself. I loved how Fitz uplifted and supported her unconditionally. His encouragement helped her blossom even more.

Fitz was an absolute sweetheart. I loved his shyness and his love for strawberries and Carl. He’s a bit awkward, but it just makes him that much more endearing. Rosie helps him start to love what he sees as flaws and I loved how she made him feel more accepted.

Both Rosie and Fitz have a vulnerability that makes them so relatable and I loved how they both were a bit shy and awkward with one another. Their chemistry is absolute fire and the heat in this book is electric. They truly empowered one another and made each other into happier, more fulfilled people who can be themselves without any false pretenses.

Tim Paige and Callie Dalton narrate Fitz and Rosie and both do a great job of bringing these characters to life. Each of them conveyed all the emotions the characters were feeling and helped me immerse myself in story.

If you like dirty-talking, cinnamon roll heroes, feisty and lovable heroines, a whole lot of steam and so much heart, you will love Neutral Zone. This story was emotional, heartwarming and highly addictive. I loved Fitz and Rosie and this entire series. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us next.

Another Comet bites the dust

Sports 🏒
Romcom
Plus size MFC


It’s back to the Carolina Comets hockey family for the romance of Ivan Fitzgerald. Fitz is shy, a bit awkward with a passion for strawberries. He also enjoys a big it voyeurism with his partners.

Rosie is a plus sized beauty with an online presence that is right up Fitz’s line. Unknown to Rosie, He is one of many who subscribe to her page to watch her.

They both have a few insecurities and stumble when they are together. A few mishaps and misunderstandings along with the laughs from the rest of the crew make this a perfect addition to the series.

Fast paced and steamy.
The narrators did a great job bringing the characters to life.

Hockey Romantic Comedy

Neutral Zone by Teagan Hunter is a hockey romantic comedy that I listened to on audio narrated by Tim Paige and Callie Dalton. This is the seventh book in the Carolina Comets series.

I absolutely love Teagan’s books! Her books give me all the feels. I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Fitz and Rosie. I liked getting both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

Tim and Callie did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you like sports romances, romantic comedies, or contemporary romances.
