About this listen

The first book in the scorching new Hot Jocks series by New York Times best-selling author Kendall Ryan - available in audio first!

I've never been so stupid in my entire life.

Elise Parrish, my teammate's incredibly sweet and gorgeous younger sister, should have been off-limits, but my hockey stick didn't get the memo.

After our team won the championship, our flirting turned physical, and I took her to bed. Then shame sent her running the next morning from our catastrophic mistake.

She thinks I don't remember that night - but every detail is burned into my brain so deeply, I’ll never forget. The feel of her in my arms, the soft whimpers of pleasure I coaxed from her perfect lips....

And now I’ve spent three months trying to get her out of my head, but I’m starting to understand she’s the only girl I’ll ever want.

I have one shot to show her I can be exactly what she needs, but Elise won’t be easily convinced.

That’s okay, because I’m good under pressure, and this time, I’m playing for keeps.

predictable but fun

I really enjoyed these characters even if the story was very predictable. I will definitely be reading the next book in this series

Super enjoyable / quick listen

I have a soft spot for sports romances. Playing for Keeps didn’t disappoint. Low drama, loads of spice, quick read/listen. Personally I love listening a dual POV like this.

Well paced, good story and a preferred trope (best friends sister/brothers best friend). Only really point of improvement for me; I would have been happy with it playing out a little longer, perhaps upping the drama.

Overall, I liked it and have already added the second book in the Hot Jocks Series to my TBR.

Nice little read.

its a nice story and I enjoyed it to some exstent but I could not stay dedicated to it. I listened to two other audio books inbetween listening to this. I feel as though there was no build up to the leads having a connection and then the ending seemed rushed but I still came back to find out how the story ended.

Abrupt ending to a ‘nice’ story

Wasn’t as predictable as expected from the reviews but there is nothing outstanding or surprising about the story or the characters. It’s just OK!

First book of this kind, overall it was good

This is the first time I have listed to a book of this kind, I was looking for a little distraction from the usual textbooks I listen to and came across this in the included section, so thought I would give it a try. It accompanied me on a long drive and at the gym, it was good fun. I really enjoyed the first half of the book but found it a little lacking in the last few chapters, but overall good, I would listen to another one by this Author.

Fantastic

This story had me totally engaged and I couldn’t put it down. Great narration and the voices suited the characters. I love the chemistry between Justin and Elise. First book I’ve listened to by this author and I’ll definitely be listening to more. 100% recommend this book.
