About this listen
Riley
Reign Thorn was my best friend turned enemy. But we both know this thing between us is more than just a rivalry.
I remember the exact day Reign and I ended our childhood friendship. One terrible accident, and I was to blame.
That same year, everything fell apart while my friendship with Reign became a rivalry of epic proportions.
He was the boy who held my hand when I lost my mom—the boy who taught me the love of the game.
Then suddenly, he was gone, and in his place was a calculating, ruthless opponent, both on and off the ice.
Reign set out to destroy my life, leaving me behind while he lived in his golden palace and enrolled in an elite private academy, pitting us against each other.
One summer, when our prank war goes too far, I decide to fight back.
Before long, the look in Reign's icy eyes feels a lot less like hatred.
Too bad, I would never date a Saint.
Reign
Riley Conrad became the bane of my existence when she ruined my season years ago.
It didn't matter that we were only eleven at the time.
She was supposed to be my best friend—the other half of my soul.
We shared an obsessive love for the game, and she knew how much I needed to sweep that tournament to appease my old man.
So when I got the chance for revenge, I didn't hesitate to put her in her place and leave her behind.
Once we were out of the same school and playing for warring teams, the divide between us grew bigger and bigger.
Until one summer, one prank, and one favor, and suddenly the hatred I used to feel for her turned into an obsession she can't escape from.
It's time Riley learns…
All is fair and love and hockey.

Story
One fall. One kiss. And one spicy fake relationship with a sassy redhead that shatters my playbook forever. Faye’s a young, cinnamon-sweet baker and a hopeless romantic. I’m a battle-scarred hockey player, rough on and off the ice. But when a slip, crash, and mind-blowing kiss go viral, the whole town thinks we’re a match. So we play along. She’ll hide my injury. I’ll bring crowds to her bakery. It’s a Win-Win. Until she moves in, and the late-night kisses turn into something more. And her laughter and her touch make me forget every rule I swore to play by. Just as things get ...

Story
Four years ago, we said goodbye. I’d always intended to come back for you, but life got in the way. All I have are cowardly excuses of being in school, fear of coming out, and thinking that too much time had passed. But fate? It’s a funny thing, because I’m now forced to spend the summer with you, working together. It’s my chance to make things right, but I know I have to prove myself to you. To show you I’m not afraid anymore. That I still burn hot and heavy for you. Can we work past our differences and try again?

Story
I met Colt Malene when I was fourteen years old...and I never recovered. He became the headstrong star quarterback in a town that idolized high school football titles. Meanwhile, I was the coach’s dutiful perfectionist daughter, never daring to step out of line. We should have stayed far away from each other, but we didn’t, and the volatile fallout was unbearable. More than a decade has passed and my father is now dying. He wants to make amends. He wants to be forgiven for the role he played in Colt’s ruinous downfall. To give a dying man some peace, Colt and I agree to a plan.

Opposites attract. The outlaw biker and the accountant. Straightlaced vs straight to hell. Or heaven, depending on how you look at it. And you can look at it any way you like, doesn't mean it's true. Either way, falling for snarky Alexei Ivanov is the lightbulb moment I've been waiting for my whole damn life. Or at least since my head got turned by someone else. A man I call brother, but he's so much more than that.

It was supposed to be a simple assignment: stake out the golden boy hockey player Cole “Mac” Mackenzie as he exited the arena after a Los Angeles Blades game. Follow him. Get dirt on his personal life—something salacious to please the money-hungry gossip rag I worked for. But I missed the moment Mac left the building. Or so I thought… Twenty minutes later, I saw actual Mac exit after the media left. Apparently, he’d used a decoy to throw off the press—waiting until everyone left to make his getaway in private. I started following the real Mac, and got more than I bargained for.

Loved this hockey romance!
Rivals is an enemies to lovers, sports romance. This book took me for a wild ride. Another job well done by Ashton Brooks.
Reign and Riley’s story was a really great, entertaining rivalry between best friends turned enemies. Reign was the epitome of a jealous/possessive hero, but Riley hit back just as hard. The tension was explosive, and their connection was spicy. You get all the emotions in this high school novel. I loved the epilogues as well!
C.J. Grey and Macie Miller did a wonderful job narrating. C.J. portrayed Reign’s possessiveness so well and Macie was the perfect Riley.

Obsessive & Protective
Reign and Riley were childhood best friends until a tragic accident drove them apart. From that point on, Reign made it his mission to get under Riley’s skin, turning every opportunity into a chance for revenge. Their story is filled with wild pranks, intense challenges, and an unforgettable moment deep in the woods that changes everything.
The chemistry between Reign and Riley is electric, defined by a push and pull tension that never lets up. Reign is fiercely possessive and protective, determined to make it clear that Riley belongs to him. Their relationship is messy, passionate, and utterly addictive.
Narrators C.J. Grey and Macie Miller bring the characters to life flawlessly. Grey captures Reign’s gritty, possessive edge, while Miller nails Riley’s sweet, slightly naïve charm. Their performances make the story’s emotional highs and lows even more compelling.
If you're into bully romances with fiery enemies to lovers energy, this one is definitely worth a listen!
