Publisher's summary

Amrit Kaur (The Sex Lives of College Girls) delivers a stellar performance in a brand-new enemies-to-lovers hockey romance by Sonya Lalli, the acclaimed author of The Matchmaker’s List and A Holly Jolly Diwali.

Hockey coach Ashley Jaswal doesn't take nonsense from anyone … except her overbearing and superstitious family. They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?).

Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder. Devin is yet another arrogant hockey bro—and admitted total babe—who is fresh off a scandalous break-up with a global pop-star. But she soon finds the ice melts between them, and they share an unexpected chemistry. As Ash wrestles with her family’s demands, her brother’s career and her feelings for Devin, will she find a way to take a risk and make her own luck? Or will she puck this up?

This captivating Audible Original is an essential listen for fans of sports romance, strong heroines, sizzling chemistry and the diversity within the hockey community.

Loved This Book!

This was a great book written by Sonya Lalli, who is a new to me author. The writing was conversational, fresh and engaging, with most of the story told through the protagonists’ point of view.
In some places it was fun and flirty; however, there are many more serious, thoughtful places in the story, dealing with self doubt, self worth, and the need we all share to be seen and heard, and to be validated and appreciated by those we love. I enjoyed most of the characters very much, with the exception of a couple of misogynistic men whose words and actions were annoying, to say the least. An interesting look at relationships and cultural differences, especially within a family. The main narrator was great, as was the supporting cast. Most of the male voices were cringe worthy, however. 😬 It was still a terrific listen!

Perfect Bookboyfriend

Omg! i’m trying to discreetly cry on an airplane as i finished this book. She describes every girl’s insecurities perfectly, and the boy handles it wonderfully. The conversations on inequality among sex’s, and self realization and growth for the main character was inspiring. love love love it.

Excellent Read

I read this while waiting for my credit to arrive, so my expectations weren’t high. Man was I wrong!! This book was excellent 10/10 would recommend . Angst, spice, great character development. I didn’t hate the main characters dm found her to be rightfully conflicted, she wasn’t annoying or whiny, just reserved and still choose to take a chance. I loved it.

Felt more like a young adult book

The main character first came off as a “I know what’s best for everyone but myself” person. She pretty much was giving relationship advice to others, but she had only been in 1 relationship herself. I mean it makes since if she was younger, but she’s a 30 year old adult! It just felt more like a teenager or early 20s something character.
The narrators male voices were bad, it was either the men sounds like they had clinched teeth or plugging their nose. Her female voices were good. Overall the book is a good filler of you don’t have anything else to listen to.

thoroughly enjoyed this with one exception

would have been so much better if a male narrator did the male parts....the part of Jus was like listening to someone with a mouth full of marbles....or clenched teeth.
