Playing to Win

Ice Kings

By: Stacey Lynn

Narrated by: Liam DiCosimo, Stella Hunter

This time, he’s playing to win, and the prize he’s looking to score is me.

It was a three-week fling. Nothing more than a couple of college kids having some fun, but then I did the stupid thing and fell for Jude Taylor quicker than he can score a goal on the ice. And after one beautiful night together, he left for the pros before I could make my first cup of coffee.

I thought I’d put him behind me. I thought I’d moved on. Then he hobbles into my physical therapy office and I realize how absolutely wrong I’ve been - there’s no getting over Jude Taylor.

But now things are complicated. Jude lives half a country away and his career is in direct opposition to my need for stability. Most of all, getting involved with him could mean losing my job and everything I’ve worked so hard for.

Jude doesn’t seem to mind one bit and he’s all in. He might be a patient in my office, but he’s no longer the patient guy I remember.

Nice story

This is a nice story. I didn’t love it because I struggled to connect or care about the characters. It seemed like their story was rushed too much for me to get to know them. Other than that it’s a nice story. I like
the whole second chance story thing plus hockey added to it. I did listen to this on audio.

Loved This Story!!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this second-chance romance story and highly recommend it. The plot line was interesting with a bit of suspense built in. You’ll love swoon-worthy Jude—he’s such a thoughtful romantic who never forgot his love for and the heartache caused by Katie. Katie has a lot of self-doubt and issues to overcome for this excellent story to have a happy ending. The dual narration is excellent as Liam and Stella bring this story to life.

Ice King Series

Playing to Win (Ice Kings #1) is a sports romance with a second chance twist told in dual pov. This is a fun, flirty romance with a bit of angst. Jude Taylor and Katie Carter's engaging characteristics and cute banter create a entertaining listen. A sweet epilogue to wrap up this winsome second chance romance


 Narrators Liam DiCosimo, Stella Hunter performance was smooth and consistent. A entertaining listen. Characters emotions were voiced.

Overall a entertaining listen.

GOAL!!!!!!!

I love hockey romances, so when I saw this coming out, I knew I had to listen. Jude and Katie had a brief college fling but never got over each other. Now years later, Jude finds himself in physical therapy where Kate works, and the sparks are flying. The question is, will they ignite? Second chance romances are so much fun! The history behind the couple really enriches the story and I love rooting for the couple to find their groove. Stacey Lynn gets it. She writes with fun, flirty lines, but also captures the vulnerability of both Jude and Katie.It's a feel good romance, including family teasing, witty banter and a romance that makes your heart warm. I can't wait to meet more of the team!

Liam DiCosimo and Stella Hunter are fabulous together. These up and coming narrators have their voices in sync and emulate the characters perfectly. They are great at story telling and I really enjoyed their performance.

Jude Jude Jude

Man oh man, Jude was such a swoon character. I love his personality and the way he never forgot Kate. I think it was a matter of miscommunication and fate they were brought back into each other's lives. I loved this story. Hot Hockey player, yes please! Liam and Stella do a great job narrating.
