Runaway Bride and Prejudice

Appies Hockey Romance

By: Emma St. Clair

Narrated by: Rock Engle, Emily Ellet

There's one rule smart hockey players know not to break: never—and I mean never—date the coach's daughter. But no one ever accused Van of being smart.

When the mouthy bad boy of the Appies catches the groom cheating on the coach's daughter, he can't just walk away, not on her wedding day.

Maybe his own relationships are casual, but he would never cheat and never treat wedding vows so carelessly. Not after he and his sisters watched their divorced parents cycle through marriage after marriage.

But forcing the groom to come clean sets off a chain reaction Van couldn't have expected. Ending with a black eye, an unexpected trip to Florida with one runaway bride, and a secret bargain struck with Coach. A bargain that may just jeopardize the very real and very inconvenient feelings he's developing for the very last person he ever should.

Runaway Bride and Prejudice is a closed-door hockey romance featuring the team's bad boy and a very good girl who also happens to be the coach's daughter. It's a sports romance with all the sizzle and swoon but no spice. This is part of the Appies Hockey Romance series of standalones, which is best enjoyed in order.

Loved it

With every book I read of these I love them more. I can’t choose a favorite. They did an amazing job with the narration and feel it fit the personality of the characters they portrayed

Sweet

It was a ride. It was good to see the characters roles change when the relationship needed a forever ending.

Fun easy read…

Fun, clean, closed door series in which every book is a stand-alone. Enjoyed the banter in this book.

The. Best Yet!

Emma outdid herself this time! This story is so much fun. It has you hanging on the edge of your seat as it unfolds, but you’re laughing and crying all the way! (My favorite part was the….!) READ IT AND FIND OUT! Bravo Emma!

This Story Was Amazing!

Well, The Appies is definitely one of my favorite book series. And they are so fun to listen to on audio! Now, after listening to Runaway Bride and Prejudice, I only have one more book to listen to in order to complete the series!

I love stories in which you learn that a character that everyone views in a certain way is actually much deeper and more honorable than you could ever have imagined. The way Van had fallen for Amelia a year earlier was wonderful, but the way that he was there to help Amelia in any way necessary after finding out just minutes before the wedding that her fiancé was cheating on her was perfection!

These two had sizzling chemistry together, however, they also seemed to click and understand each other on a deeper level. There were so many amazing and beautiful moments in their story and definitely some rocky moments where I could feel their heartache. Ahhh! I just loved this book so much!
