End Game: New York Stars

De: G.A. Mazurke, Serena Akeroyd

Narrado por: Samantha Brentmoor, Teddy Hamilton

I’m a curvy sports geek.

Liam’s a hockey god.

He’s way out of my league…

My brother’s best friend is acting really weird.

Flowers keep showing up. He sends me Cameos and concert tickets.

Then, there’s the job offer…

Well, first, there was the fact that he tracked me down to NYC.

It’s really complicated, okay? But so are my feelings for him. I’ve been ignoring them for so long that they became a wall I’m comfortable hiding behind.

Damn him and his sweet, hot, cute, dirty-talking self who has cherry-picked his way into every aspect of my life.

I’m not complaining… but there’s a problem.

Not that he’s my brother’s best friend. Oh, no. Liam Donnghal is a future Hall-of-Famer NHL star. He could have any girl he wants, so why would he want to make the wallflower his end game?

I loved how Gracie and Liam took care of each other.

Gracie’s family was focused mostly on their 3 hockey playing sons especially by her mother who never really respected Gracie the way her father did. Liam was fostered after losing his parents. As he learned to play hockey he was billeted with Gracie’s family.

Liam and Gracie were best friends turned lovers in spite of the derogatory comments that came from her mother and brothers. Liam had survived a scary traumatic incident. He and Gracie cared so much for each other after the trauma that affected Liam.

This is a lovely friends to lovers romance.

Hit it out of the park...

📚 Book Review 📚

Liam and Gracie have know each other for basically forever. After all, Liam billeted with Gracie’s family and become best friends with her brother. The problem? They are both in love with each other and the other does not even realize. This have driven Gracie away from her family, where she has moved from her home town in Canada to New York. Where she can blend in and no longer just be “the sister of the famous Bukowski brothers”. Yes, brothers as in plural. In a family of siblings where they all have made an impact on the world, Gracie feels like she is not good enough. Not good enough for her family, the world, and Liam. But when Liam moves to the New York Stars after his kidnapping, Gracie can no longer stay away. Liam has changed because of the kidnapping and he needs her more than before. She has no idea, though, what all he has planned. The important thing is to remember the number 35.

Goodness. This story is everything I needed and more. Gem is an amazing story teller and always puts her heart and soul into her stories and it shows. Even though this story was not as dark as her others, it was just as perfect. I cannot wait to see what all lies in store for the Bukowski brothers!

🎧 Audio Review 🎧

Teddy Hamilton and Samantha Brentmoor really blew this out of the park. Excuse a pun for the wrong game. Teddy really can make anything sound good but pair it with amazing writing like we see here? And it is amaze-balls.

End Game is an outstanding audiobook!

End Game is an outstanding audiobook!
Between the amazing storyline and witty humor, the dynamic energy between Liam and Gracie is utterly perfection. Not to mention the over-the-top perfectional narration by Samantha Brentmoor, and Teddy Hamilton.

Spicy and love a found family

Second listen today- note to self- she does not get kidnapped or harmed by her professor. I must have made up these storylines in my memory but there are no stressful mafia elements here. Super spicy- he falls hard- he defends her to family. Muah

Good but a bit too long

The story was good, cute romance, but kind of drug on and not much to the end.
