Game Changer

Game Changers Series, Book 1

By: Rachel Reid

Narrated by: Tor Thom

New York Admirals captain Scott Hunter takes his pregame rituals very seriously. In this case, it's not just a lucky smoothie he's craving - it's the man who made it.

Pro hockey star Scott Hunter knows a good thing when he sees it. So, when a smoothie made by juice bar barista Kip Grady precedes Scott breaking his on-ice slump, he's desperate to recreate the magic...and to get to know the sexy, funny guy behind the counter.

Kip knew there was more to Scott's frequent visits than blended fruit, but he never let himself imagine being invited back to Scott's penthouse. Or kissed with reckless abandon, never mind touched everywhere all at once. When it happens, it's red-hot, incredible, and frequent, but also only on Scott's terms and always behind his closed apartment doors.

Scott needs Kip in his life, but with playoff season approaching, the spotlight on him is suddenly brighter than ever. He can't afford to do anything that might derail his career...like introducing the world to his boyfriend. Kip is ready to go all-in with Scott - but how much longer will he have to remain a secret?

Sexy Story. Delicious narration.

Fun romance story. The outcome was predictable, but the journey there was wonderful. The narrator... Wow. That voice is amazing. Bravo, Tor Thom. You can read to me anytime. ;)

Hot Hockey Book with HEA

Rachel Reid builds a MM romance among unlikely partners. Nice build up and hot scenes!

Tor Thom shines with his scorching baritone voice throughout.

Great listen!

Good, but….

I really struggled to get through this one because of the narration. I really like Tor Thom’s regular speaking voice, but the accent or whatever he did when speaking as Kip was just… not great. I couldn’t tell if he was trying a NY accent, whether Kip was supposed to have a lisp or other speech impediment, or what. All other parts I was fine but then we’d get to Kip and it would pull me out of the story completely. It’s possible it’s just me - but I’d highly recommend listening to the whole preview of the audio to see if you can hear him as Kip before deciding to purchase.

Warm and fuzzy meets hot and heavy:)

I loved this book so much! I was so consumed by it, that I thought about it constantly when I wasn't listening to it. Both love interests were very likeable. This book has great balance of adorable and steamy. The smut was excellent but so was the warm and fuzzy plot. The author and narrator did a great job of bringing the characters to life. Would definitely recommend!

Good Story, Nor the Right Narrator

The was an enjoyable story is you like m/m book with a sports theme. When you invest so much into creating an audiobook for your story it is critical to pick the right narrator to voice the story. I love Tor Thom anytime he does a southern character, he has a great sound. In my opinion he just didn’t have the right voice or range for these characters and it took away from the story unfortunately. Sorry Tor!
