Resumen del Editor

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.

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.
