Yeah, this was good. I am so glad that I finally got around to reading it. I have seen so many glowing reviews for this series for the past couple of years but for one reason or another, I never made it a priority. Once I got started with this one, I didn't want to stop listening and fell in love with both Jamie and Wes before I even knew what was happening. I really enjoyed my time with this audiobook.

What is it that just seems to make romance and hockey go together? Jamie and Wes are college level hockey players at the start of this story but they have known each other for a long time from their years at hockey camp. I really liked the fact that they had a history together and it was fun to piece together what exactly happened during their teen years. These two were best friends until they weren't but it was obvious how much they missed each other.

Jamie and Wes were such great characters. I really liked both of them immensely from the start of the story and my love with them grew as the story progressed. They were both really good people and I loved watching them deal with everyone in their lives. They were very careful with each other especially at the start because neither one wanted to mess up their relationship again. These two were just so much better together and watching them figure things out was a joy.

Teddy Hamilton and Jacob Morgan did a fabulous job with this story. The story is told from alternating points of view and each of the narrators read their character's chapters. I just thought that they were able to bring these two to life. I felt so many emotions in their reading and wanted to listen for hours at a time. I think that these narrators were able to take a great story to the next level and I think my decision to listen to this story was the right one.

I would highly recommend this book to others. I don't read a lot of MM romance but I found a lot of magic in Jamie and Wes's love story. It was just wonderful to watch this pair fall for each other and I cannot wait to listen to the rest of their story!

Initial Thoughts
This was great! I am not sure if I will end up going with 4 or 5 stars right now. I don't read a lot of M/M but I am glad that I decided to give this one a try. Wes and Jamie were great and it was a lot of fun to see how things developed. The narration was fantastic and I thought that both narrators really brought the story to life. This was really equal parts hot and romantic.
