Wolf: A Sports Romance

Nighthawk Series, Book 2

By: Lisa Lang Blakeney

Narrated by: Hayden Bishop, Jeremy York

From best-selling author Lisa Lang Blakeney comes a new stand-alone, billionaire boss romance set in the world of professional football.

Ursula: How many ways do I need to say - I quit? My family thinks I'm crazy, my astrology chart says it's a mistake, but after three years of carefully molding the highly narcissistic Cooper Barnes into the "athlete influencer" of the year - I quit.

He won't care anyway. Whether they work for him or sleep with him, women have always been expendable to the billionaire baller. Even me.

Cooper: What is wrong with Ursula Owens? It's like she woke up one day this whole new person. A woman I don't recognize. One day she was my quirky, highly organized assistant, happily managing my entire life for me. The next she is handing in her resignation with no warning and no good reason.

Good thing I know what I want. I may have met her by chance, but I'm keeping her by choice. Just maybe our love story is fated after all.

Contains mature themes.

Beautiful story

I absolutely love this book and listening to was such a joy. The characters are amazing and the performance was incredible

Coop and Ms Owens

A fun, entertaining and swoon worthy romance. Cooper and Ursula are absolutely adorable, witty and charming. They are definitely two people who were meant to be together. I enjoyed every second of this sweet story.

Perfect chemistry

Right from the start they're everything to each other. I the frustration came from the secrets more than anything. A beautiful love story that I need more of for sure. Her sisters were the best! Protective and supportive.

Great road trip book

Short but sweet. I love Lisa’s men!😘 They’re always to die for, so glad I already have one.

Cute Story 😍

Short & sweet. Storyline was interesting. Narration was great. Spice 2.5/5. On to the next book.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Cute Book

Again my biggest complaint is the author doesn't describe the characters appearance until 3 hours in. This is something readers need to know so we can visualize them. FYI: Cooper has green eyes and a man bun-she never tells you the color. Owens (Ursula) has black curly hair with brown eyes. Narrators were great!

Sweet Story, Terrific Twists

I enjoyed the first book in this series enough to want to keep reading, and WOLF did not disappoint. I think I liked this one even better than the first, though they each have their merits. I've noticed that Lisa Lang Blakeney writes a little bit on the slow-burn side, but since these books are so short, I don't even notice. (I don't mind a slow-burn, but usually I'm ready to jump into the spice and watch it ramp up along the way). The dynamic between the two MCs was a lot of fun, but the several twists in this story is what really elevated it. I'm not sure if I've just gotten used to the narrators or they did actually improve from the last one. Hayden Bishop has a beautiful, raspy voice and brings a lot of personality to the female characters, though a few of her choices sometimes take me out of the moment. Jeremy York is more consistent, but he doesn't bring the characters alive like his co-narrator. Still, they're above average in terms of narration, and the story was enjoyable, both in terms of the actual plot and the spiciness of the bedroom scenes. Very excited to keep reading.

Short But Good ...

This series runs a bit shorter time wise than I am used to and that fact bothered me a bit more in the first book (Saint) than this one. In Wolf, Cooper and Oliva's story wasn't so centralized to the two main characters, there was more football team presence and family/friend involved. As they started out as a boss and employee with years under their belt the connection also didn't feel as rushed and lacking in detail as it did in Saint's story. Overall, I am enjoying this series and will be moving straight to Deisel's story next. LLB has an interesting writing style and I like her clever dialogue the stories themselves also don't feel all that fictional.

Liked it

This was good listen. Reminded me of “What’s wrong with Secretary Kim” kdrama. Storyline the same but there are few different aspects. Both connected by a childhood trauma.
