About this listen

He's the tall, tattooed stranger I hooked up with on Halloween... and now he's my new roommate.

After a sudden cross-country move, I'm stuck crashing with my older brother and two of his hockey teammates for sophomore year. I'm not thrilled about shacking up with three athletes and their stinky gear, rotating door of hookups, and tendency to inhale every snack in the house—just some reasons of many that hockey players aren't my type.

When I walk in the front door with an armload of boxes, however, I'm faced with another problem. My anonymous fling from two months ago is Tyler Donahue, the superstar goalie for my brother's team.

We both agree to pretend it never happened, but it quickly becomes clear neither of us can forget. Before I know it, we're exchanging heated glances from across the room, sending spicy texts at all hours of the night, and stealing kisses behind closed doors.

Since my overprotective brother would freak out, we decide to keep things between us a secret. There's no point in rocking the boat when I don't want a boyfriend, and Tyler doesn't have time for a girlfriend with his grueling hockey schedule. But as our no-strings arrangement turns into something deeper and more meaningful, I begin to see a softer side of the broody, closed-off goalie. He's gentle, protective, and giving in every sense of the word. Despite what I told myself going in, I'm falling hard and falling fast.

We said we'd keep things casual, but hearts have a way of breaking all the rules.

Shutout is a college hockey romance with lots of spice, swoon, and a happily ever after. It's the second book in the Rules of the Game series and can be enjoyed as a standalone.

It was just okay.

The characters were great, but nothing seemed to happen. It was sweet, but hard to stay invested in.

Good Hockey Listen

I read Offside a while ago and finally got to the next book in the series.
Shutout is a friend's little sister with some forced proximity. The chemistry and attraction between Sera and Tyler are off the charts. That was one of my favorite parts of this book.

I loved that both characters had their own passions and drive. They both wanted to succeed in their own way with those passions. But to also have a seriousness to the storyline that made me connect more with the characters.


This is a great listen, and I thoroughly enjoyed this audio. The narrators did a great job with this story. I listened to it in one sitting and loved it.

Amazing and so beautiful ❤️

I loved this book so much it was well worth the wait I loved the relationship that Seraphina and Tyler made the spice was top tier 🔥 and it also really got me emotional from the car. You probably wouldn’t think it, but there are all heavy topics in it that got me emotional but I loved it and the bonus chapters are amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I am not really good at rating spice but 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Love Tink and Hades

The story is amazing but specifically for this audio, the narrator for Sera was spot on! Couldn’t have picked anyone better. Tyler’s narrator wasn’t exactly what I pictured him sounding like, but he grew on me more and more throughout the book. Definitely worth the purchase.

Tink & Hades Forever

This is arguably my favorite book that I've read (/listened to) in 2024 💗

Read this book if you are looking for books with:
✅ Brother's Best Friend
✅ College Hockey Romance
✅ Witty Banter
✅ Navigating ADHD
✅ Tattoos & Piercings 🥵
✅ Protective MMC

Content advisories - ADHD awareness, cancer/BRCA, drug & alcohol use

Tink (Sera//Seraphina) and Hades (Tyler) are absolute perfection 🥰 Avery did a fantastic job giving the characters depth and authenticity while they navigated some truly challenging circumstances. I loved seeing so much of Bailey, Chase, Dallas, and Shiv too since Offside was such a fantastic start to the series.
Sera is fun and smart and is learning to be her own person after moving back home to help care for her mom. Tyler is moody, broody, and intense. They bring out the best in each other. From the Valentine's Day Date to the Press Box, the spice is spicing and dang 🔥🔥🔥

🔈 I listened to the audiobook and loved Stella Bloom and Gabriel Spires as the narrators too!

Tyler Donahue is the mvp

If I could re read this over and over I would. This was my first time listening and the narrators were great!

Avery Keelan k*liked it again!

(Sigh) I’m so in love with the idea of being in love. This book was an amazing follow up to Chase & Bailey. Tink & Hades were fire. These two had so much chemistry it was literally stëaming up my kindle! 😮‍💨
The story has a bit of a slow burn (a staple of Keelan) but she is one of the ONLY authors who writes them that I read because the relationship building in the process is so good!! You have a chance to fall in love with the characters then root for them to boot.
This story followed Seraphina (Chases’ baby sister) and one of his besties, Tyler who met previously on Halloween in costume and hooked up in a club bathroom. He gave her a hat trick of “O’s” and she gave him the inability to be with anyone else after. They meet again when Tink moves into her brothers house with 2 hockey brothers, Tyler (Hades), being one of them.
The world relationship building was so amazing I gobbled this book up way faster than I wanted to. Gabriel Spires (new to me but love his voice) & one of my all time favs, Stella Bloom added depth to the story when I listened as I did both, read and listened. I had to turn my radio down quite frequently while driving cause DAY-UM! This was HOT AF! 🥵
All in all, another amazing read. I loved the real life events in this book as well as the romance and character growth. I swoon every time I read a novel by Avery. My only gripe was no closure with Abby & her brother, moms recovery & whether or not Chase was a carrier. Other than that?! Bellissimo!
