About this listen
Girlfriend…without benefits?
Hometown hockey hero, Blake has life completely figured out. He’s footloose and fancy free with the world’s coolest job and an endless parade of puck bunnies ready to help him celebrate his victories. The status quo is working for him, so why does he agree to co-parent a stray puppy with his too-serious, workaholic neighbor, Erika? And why is he so annoyed when she suddenly starts dating some tool named Doug? And why can’t he stop finding excuses to see her and touch her and kiss her and… She’s not his girlfriend, right?
Erika has enough on her plate as an ER doctor without adding any more stress to her life. So adopting a dog with Blake, the fun-loving, never-take-anything-serious, commitment-phobe across the hall is a stupid idea, right? Of course, she also probably shouldn’t be his plus-one for charity galas either. Or seeking comfort from him during a thunderstorm. Or kissing his five-for-fighting boo-boos better. Or letting him teach her how to “reduce stress” with her personal toy collection. After all, he’s not her boyfriend. Is he?
So what happens when two people reluctant to commit find love where they least expect it… Right across the hall.

Jess has one goal in life—protect her son. But when an overcrowded shelter puts her and Jasper out on the street in the dead of winter, she fears she's going to fail that mission. Help comes in the form of confirmed bachelors, Tony Moretti and Dr. Rhys Beaumont. Tony and Rhys share the same motto—work hard, play harder. But when fate drops a homeless waitress and her young son on their doorstep, their wild and free lifestyle takes a sharp turn. Their desire to help her is only surpassed by their desire to claim her, share her, make her theirs.

I’m a total nerd, but I look like a jock. I had a perfect GPA in high school, and my GPA in college is perfect too. I smile when I’m supposed to smile. I have two loving parents and a brother and sister who are always by my side. I’m the perfect all-American guy. But the only thing that actually defines me is the before. The things I keep hidden deep inside because I’m too afraid of losing what I have now. The past lives deep inside me as I force the plastic smile on my face. And no one sees through it because I’m just that good.

As if tonight's loss wasn't bad enough, I'm now watching said box of cereal, my literal good luck charm, disappear in some woman's cart. The brazen woman denies my cash offer along with my proposal for a more intimate payment. How much loss can a man take in one day? At this point, who cares how rude I am to her? She's public enemy number one, and chances of seeing her again are slim to none.

Then I’ll be free to leave that life of crime behind me forever and raise my niece in the peace she deserves. But Kyle’s smarter than the average trust fund baby. He’s also ruthless and distrustful. He never lets anyone in…until one day at work. I get sick. He’s there to care for me.

Violet Chase has always been off-limits. The girl I wanted... but could never have. In my teens, her father warned me to keep my hands to myself. Boys like me don't get girls like her. His family saved me, and I owed them. Her brothers, my best friends, made it clear where I stood: below them. We had one stolen moment of passion, then I ran. That was fourteen years ago, and I've regretted it ever since. Now, she's back in London, but life for both of us is very different.

Story
He's a city boy. I'm a country girl. He's experienced, and I'm well, not. Some days it feels like I'm the last virgin left in the world. We shouldn't mix. So why do I feel like I've found the one person to finally give it up to? Finding the right guy isn't easy. Especially when you know everyone and their history in your small town. I've all but given up on the one when I crash-in the worst possible way—into the most gorgeous man I've ever laid eyes on. He's a writer without a story, looking for inspiration. And might just be what I'm looking for.

Friends to Lovess
Restraint is 1 in Mari Carr's new Stingrays Hockey series.
Blake is a player for the Baltimore Stingrays hockey team. He has lived next door to Dr Erika, aka Erik, for three years now. They are just friends, but deep down Blake wants more.
Erika is in her fourth year of residency at the hospital and works a lot of late night shifts. She gets called in on her days off regularly. It is the life of a resident. When she was younger, there was an incident that forged her path in medicine and she has never wavered.
One rainy night, while walking home from dinner, Blake and Erika find a puppy. They each want to keep her, but know that their lives are not conducive to having a pet. So they jointly agree to co parent Corky.
Erika decides to try online dating. She has met a guy and gone out on multiple dates with him, but something is holding her back from taking that final step with him. On their last date, when she does not invite him in for more, he gets upset and dumps her. She goes upstairs and decides to get Corky out for one final walk before the storm hits, but she is so deep in thought that she does not see the signs of the storm moving in fast.
When a big crack of thunder strikes, Corky breaks free from her leash and runs off. Erik is in a panic, literally and figuratively. She is unable to find Corky in the storm and she is scared to death of storms herself.
When she finally calls Blake, he can tell something is wrong by her voice. He is at a team celebration for winning their game, but as soon as he gets the call he takes off.
They find Corky and head to Blake's apartment. Both Erik and Corky are completely soaked through. He gives Erik a towel to dry the dog while he works on drying her.
Erik ends up spending the night at Blake's. She needs the comfort of Corky snuggled up to her. She and Blake end up talking late about a lot of things, but it gives him more perspective on her.
When she goes next door to her apartment the next morning, her "date" is waiting at the door for her. He brought coffee and donuts for her. But when he sees where she came from and that she is wearing a pair of Blake's sweats, he becomes irate.
When Blake walks out the door to this scene, he solves the problem himself. Erik knew she was holding back for a reason. But until the night before she did not realize it was because she is secretly in love with Blake.
But Erik is afraid of ruining her friendship with him, so she does not act on her feelings. Until one night.
But when our favorite puck bunny, Mindy, makes an appearance in Blake's bed, will this ruin everything he has worked so hard to build with Erik?
Colt Carter and Suzanne T Fortin are both new narrators for me. I enjoyed how Colt handles Blake and his teammates. Suzanne brought entertainment to my silly nature with puck bunny Mindy. I loved her take on the character.

Cute hockey story
This is a cute hockey story. I enjoyed the idea of this one and the author delivered. I loved the two characters (and his hockey friends)! Watching them learn what everyone else knows was wonderful. Best friends getting together is always a hump to get over. Seeing these two climb that hill and come down the other side was delightful. Everything rounds out nicely and all the characters are a joy! I look forward to more in this series.
I listened to this on audio. Colt Carter and Suzanne T Fortin are the narrators. They are both new to me and did a good job. They were easy to understand and put that extra effort into their characters.

Sports Romance, Yes Please! Great Story & Listen🎧
This is a fabulous start to Mari Carr’s “Stingrays Hockey” series, a sports romance that captivates your attention and tugs at your heartstrings the entire time. This first book is Blake’s, a professional hockey player and Erica’s, an E.R. doctor, story. They are neighbors in the same building and became friends, with Blake looking out for her best interests since she works too much and forgets to take care of herself. He is a player, and she has seen his playing ways with the puck bunnies he brings home. Then things between them slowly change, morphing into something more, something neither saw coming, or knew what they wanted, which was each other. This wonderfully plotted story has the perfect balance of drama, heartfelt emotions, and steamy romance. Mari Carr, thank you for another fantastic story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧 Colt Carter and Suzanne T. Fortin did a fabulous job bringing these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying, giving each a voice that was fitting to their personality and demeanor. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the character’s emotions and had you feeling them all. These two made a great team, their voices and performance complemented each other and they were a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this wonderful listen.

A great start to series
I am loving the books I've listened to by Mari Carr. This one included! I love the friends to lovers trope and this was well done. My heart went out to both of them. I was cheering for them from the start. I didn't want to pause when needed. Great cast of secondary characters and I can't wait for their stories!
Colt Carter and Suzanne T. Fortin are excellent narrators. They brought this audiobook to life. Suzanne is a new to me narrator and she'll quickly become a favorite.

Erika and Blake...
Restraint is the first book in the Stingrays Hockey series. It is a fast paced, sports, ER doctor, best friends to lovers romance. Erika and Blake have a great friendship and off the charts chemistry. You get witty banter and all the feels. I love the dynamic between these two and the co-parenting of their cute puppy Corky. I can't wait to read more in this series.

Book 1 - Stingrays Hockey
This is book 1 in Carr's new series Stringrays Hockey and I am loving this new series. Our main characters are Blake and Erika who are neighbors who have become the best of friends. Initially there was some chemistry, but Blake was a player both on and off the ice and made it clear he was not the settling down sort, Erika was focused on her career and not yet ready but knew she wanted the forever Blake seemed so averse to and so a friendship was formed. I love the banter between them and the comfort that comes with knowing someone for years. I also loved the comradery between Blake and his teammates and even Erika and her newfound friends. I adore how these friends were supportive and helpful. I love how smoothly this romance transitioned the low angst and level of maturity and communication. Carr delivers a well written, sweet and steamy romance and our dual narration is perfection to bring these characters and storyline to life. I loved this start to the new series and I'm so excited for more!
This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.

Restraint
Restraint is the first book in the Stingrays Hockey series. This book is about Blake and Erika and is told from both of their points of view.
Blake and Erika have been neighbors for 3 years. They have been friends, but Blake has feelings for her. When they find a stray puppy, they decide to foster it together.
Corky (their puppy) brings these two together in an unforgettable way. Will raising a puppy bring their relationship into more? Will they get their happy ending with each other? I'm hoping to continue on in this series.
