Summary

Brody’s got enough on his plate.

Recovering from a knee injury he hopes won’t keep him off the ice. His team, the Portland University Evergreens, have a brand new coach, and he’s hoping to impress the legendary leader. Plus, he's got to make a decision once and for all about playing professional hockey or using his love of science to go a totally different direction.

The last thing he needs is a sexual awakening at the large, calloused hands of his football player roommate.

Dean is big and brawny and taciturn, but he doesn’t need to words to woo Brody. He wants Dean, even if he thought he was straight. And Dean? Doesn’t matter that he’s never hooked up with a guy before, either.

They’re discovering new pleasures every night, while pretending during the day that they’re just roommates.

Except the heat burns so hot between them, it doesn’t just melt all the ice on Brody’s rink, it melts all his beliefs about who he is and what he wants.

But even more, it destroys the lie that he can’t fall hard for a guy. Because Brody is falling hard for Dean, and he discovers he’s not alone.

When life throws you a curve ball

Story: A brilliant take on tackling difficult life choices and exploring new possibilities with the right people. I loved how mature the MCs were in their relationship and how the author approached the theme of professional sports and the path to the career.
Narration: Very good performance!

I loved it!

I read this book with my eyes only a couple of weeks ago and I loved it. Listening to Darcy Stark perform the audiobook made me love it all over again. Below is my original review.

I loved this book. It’s a double bi-awakening, roommates-to-friends-to-lovers story with first times and heat. Both MCs have a lot on their plates and decisions they must make. Brody has to decide if an NHL Hockey career is what he really wants and Dean has to decide if he’s willing to take the risk of rejection and let Brody in.

This book gave me all kinds of feels. There were a lot of tender moments between Dean and Brody but there were also touching moments between Brody and his teammates. I loved how it was no big deal to anyone – Brody’s parents and both of their teams – when they came out as a couple. The epilogue set 18 months into the future was perfect. I can’t wait to read the next book!
