About this listen

A brand-new stand-alone novel in the New York Times best-selling Briar U series!

What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate...no matter how hard that makes things.

But there’s nothing in the rulebook that says I can’t be friends with a woman. And I won’t lie - my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she’s got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her.

Except three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound.

And she’s making a play for me.

Avoiding her is impossible. We’re paired up on a yearlong school project, but I’m confident I can resist her. We’d never work, anyway. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren’t aligned, and her parents hate my guts.

Hooking up is a very bad idea. Now I just have to convince my body - and my heart.

Narration 50/50

The female narrator has a nice voice, but her word enunciations and inflections were off AND her mispronunciation of simple words was very distracting in the story. Teddy Hamilton, as always, is fantastic!!

Ok

It’s not bad but I’m from Miami and we don’t talk like this. Yes we do say the occasional Mami but it’s not so often and it’s not really a Cuban thing. I hear it more from Dominicans. Also, a rich doctor is never living in little havana. If he has money in Miami he’s in Coral Gables. So that missed information is kind of throwing me off.

Good Story…

The female narrator’s male voices are horrible. Why can’t the male do all of the male parts. I know schedule the narrators simultaneously could be a problem but splice the narrations together. And there were mispronunciations by both narrators. Anyway I really liked the story and do recommend it.

Not my favorite but still good.

I love the MMC and I was very curious as to what his story would be like. I did not enjoy the FMC much. Maybe was the voice? I didn’t like the female performance and may be the reason why the FMC was kinda annoying to me.

Great Story, okay female narrator

I love Teddy Hamilton to no end and this book was great, but I felt like the female narrator was a 15 year old. She sounded incredibly young and kept mispronouncing words…did no one notice in post production?

Mispronounced words

I cannot get past the way Ana Osario mispronounces words. Is there no one directing her performance? The story was good and Teddy Hamilton is solid but I will avoid books that she reads from now on.

Loved the story.

I loved Demi and Hunter’s story. Their chemistry and banter was off the charts. Thanks, Elle Kennedy for adding diversity in your writing. It’s nice to see everyone represented. It would have been nice to see more of Demi’s Afro Latino culture. Most African’s and Lantino really embrace and love their culture. Just a tiny bit of research would have given you insight on how to include that. I also wanted to see Hunter’s family and his relationship with his dad. But still the story was an amazing read and listen. It’s still a 5 star.
