Resumen del Editor

Confession #1: I used to be a puck bunny, but after a hockey player broke my heart, I gave up all things hockey. Now I’m just focused on finding a way to pass my math class so I can graduate college.

Confession #2: Ryder “Ox” Maddox’s deep, sexy voice sends fuzzy tingles through my entire body, and I’m powerless to stop it. Which is a big problem since the hot, surprisingly funny hockey player is my new math tutor.

Confession #3: I can’t stop thinking about how ripped Ryder is from all his hockey training, and how fun it’d be to cross lines with him.

Confession #4: I kissed a hockey player and I liked it.

Confession #5: If I’m not careful, I might relapse and fall for Ryder, and then I’ll be totally pucked.

confession

This was a great way to end the series and explained quite a lot about the Newspaper editor at the college. loved the whole series.

Series was good

This series was good and I liked it. This book was good. I liked Lindsey and Ryder, but I wasn't always happy with Ryder. He spent all this time pursuing Lindsey then decides that maybe they shouldn't be together after he finally gets her to agree to date him. And the whole thing with his mother and father, I saw that coming from a mile away. It was over all a good book and a great ending to the series. I really enjoyed CJ Bloom but I wasn't the biggest fan of Adam Verner.

This was my first book by Cindi Madsen and I am pleasantly surprised with the enemies to lovers college romance. I loved that Ryder had more substance than the usual dumb jock despite his interfering parents and that Lindsey was smart enough to reform her puck bunny ways and persevere in spite of a few obstacles in her way. CJ Bloom and Adam Verner did an excellent job narrating! They both expressed the emotions of the storyline perfectly when light and funny were needed or sad and touching. It was an enjoyable read

Entertaining YA hockey romance

This was a cute story that I did enjoy listening to for the most part. CJ Bloom is definitely a talented performer, but her "male" voice is not my favorite. Overall the performance and the story is entertaining, cute and a little angst ridden. It was pleasant and entertaining if you are in YA romances. Overall I am happy to recommend.

awesome series

I don't usually go for younger books but I really liked this one. I really enjoyed this author.

Sweetness in a puck...!!!

I absolutely adored this story. CJ Bloom awesome in her narration. Loved the hockey story within the love story. Funny, warm and really entertaining.

Great series!

I just finished listening to this series back to back. I truly enjoyed the stories. They were sweet with a lot of humor and just the right amount of angst. The characters also felt very authentic.

I did listen to the series as part of the Audible Romance Package. Thus series is one of the truly hidden gems offered through this package.

Great Read!

I really enjoyed listening to this book. I was hooked from the very first book of this series and I am glad that this book was just as great as the other book.

Spin on the typical rom-com

Confessions of a Puck Bunny is a fun twist on the typical romance novel. In the dozens of hockey romance books I've read, puck bunnies are always shamed. This one isn't different, except that it shows the other side - one of those bunnies sees the error of her ways and stops chasing players around. In fact, she goes out of her way to avoid anything and anyone to do with hockey. This works fine until she's pursued hardcore by our quiet Heroine. He wants her in the worst way. They go through the typical ups and downs as we see in most romantic novels. I knocked it down to 3 stars because part of the angst and issues between the couple have to do with miscommunication (or zero communication). That's my least favorite trope. But it still wasn't drawn out badly like others I've read.

Overall, it's a fun read and a good end to the series.

2 stars

The beginning of this book felt like I was starting a TV show at episode 2 or 3. I have read all the books in this series, so it wasn't because I didn't read prior books. For whatever reason, the choice was made to start this book with the main characters already in a hide and seek dynamic, with the FMC trying to hide from the MMC because he's shown interest and the MMC seeking out any opportunity to talk to the FMC.

I liked the MMC in previous books of this series, but the way this story started made it very difficult to get into this story. We are told the MMC is into the FMC because of her looks and "more than that" but the MMC can't put his finger on it. I might be into that more if I saw some interactions between them before the FMC actively tried to avoid him at all costs. What was shown on page just seemed annoying, with it being difficult to see why the MMC would continue to pursue the FMC.

As I listened to this book, it was difficult to stay engaged with the story. The FMC wasn't particularly likable and the MMC seemed wishy washy. He would be determined to convince the FMC to give him a chance and then he would think it would be best if he focused on hockey only. I understand he had issues because of his dad, but if he wasn't sure he had time for a relationship, he should have left the FMC alone, like she wanted.

This is definitely the weakest book of the series. There just wasn't anything particularly enjoyable about this story. The dialogue was weak. Sex scenes were lacking heat. Connection between the characters was non-existent. I rate this two stars and consider it a skippable installment of this series.
