Egotistical Puckboy

Puckboys, Book 1

By: Eden Finley, Saxon James

Narrated by: Iggy Toma, Alexander Cendese

Ezra

Partying, dudes, and hockey. What more could a gay NHL player want?

If it weren't for Anton Hayes, my life would be perfect.

Not that he affects my life in any way. At all. That would imply I care what the winger from Philly thinks of me.

Which I don't.

Not even a one-night stand with him can thaw his misplaced animosity toward me.

He says I'm the one with the ego, but he can talk. He rivals me for most egotistical puck boy in the league.

I hate him as much as he hates me. Even if I crave a repeat.

Anton

When it comes to hockey, I'm all about the game.

I've worked for years to be one of the best in the league, and l've done it without splashing my orientation all over the tabloids.

My hockey image is one I've carefully cultivated, and after one night with Ezra Palaszczuk, I risk it all.

He's cocky, obnoxious, and has an ego bigger than Massachusetts. And okay, maybe he's the sexiest man I've ever known.

We'll never get along. Not when we sleep together. Not even when my possessive streak awakens.

That doesn't stop us from falling into bed together over and over again.

Great!

Very funny and at the same time moving and beautiful. A totally man’s world. I loved that too.

Falling in love

Seemingly opposing personalities fall in love. Enjoyed the egotist's banter and sarcasm which was well presented by his voice. Anton's journey in coming out mirrored the trip many of us make.Listening is more enjoyable making EACH word a gem. Listen and enjoy.

So much fun!

Iggy Toma and Alexander Cendese have moved to the top of the pack in narrating new adult m/m romances. Everything about this book will make you smile.

Wonderful Start to a New Series!

I absolutely loved this story. I read this one out of order, I read the 2nd book first of this series first and before I read the CU Hockey Books which this basically spins off from so I wasn’t sure if I’d like Ezra but right from the beginning I adored him. It took me a little more time to love Anton cause even listening I was protective of Ezra’s feelings but I grew to love him as well, and I loved the banter between the two characters and how that stayed part of their relationship even as they progressed to falling in love. This was a wonderful start to a new series, even though I cheated with Book 2. I just loved the intro of the Queer Collective as a whole. Also I have to say the narration was perfect, they are two of my favorites especially together. Another great book from Eden Finley and Saxon James.

So good!!

Really great and fun story.
I loved the narrators. They were perfect for this story. Overall so good.

Great listen

And the Hockey Romances continue. Love all the couples that make an appearance in this story. outstanding writing as always when we get two great Authors together. No better duo for Narrating together, Iggy Toma and Alexander Cendese. they can sure bring a Great listen to Life. so funny and perfect to voice this book. well worth the credit and your time to listen.

Ezra & Anton

Swoon! I absolutely loved Ezra and Anton’s story! It was everything I hoped it would be and more. So much so, I snagged it on audio and relived it in all its glory!! Iggy Toma and Alexander Cendese totally nailed these two for me! I absolutely loved their take in Ezra and Anton and almost listened to this in one day! They e were so on point with the witty banter that we’ve come to expect from these authors that I found myself smiling and laughing out loud at parts. We’d previously met Ezra in the CU universe, and I thought it might take me a minute to warm to him. It didn’t even take the first page! Ezra was a wonderful blend of ego, sarcastic wit, and confidence. Anton was equally fantastic with his own brand of confidence, ego, snark and humor. These two pulled me in from the first page to the last and I barely put it down in between. I loved their enemies to frenemies to lovers story and I swear I had heart eyes while these two fumbled through their feelings. I loved their super hot sexy times and the tender moments in between. There was so many things to love about these two as their story unfolded. I loved being able to visit with past characters we met in the CU and Fake Boyfriend universe! It was great fun and before I even finished I was asking myself, “can you already have a book hangover before you actually finish the book?” The answer is yes! Reader, do yourself a favor and grab this book, it’s not to missed!

must read CU Hockey series first

this book was really awesome but I feel like if you really want to get invested with these characters you need to start with the CU Hockey series first because every person mentioned in this book has their own story and I feel like it helps explain some of this a little bit but definitely need to read those books first

Fantastic!

Just finished the audio and it's even better the second time around! These 2 narrators are just pure gold for this book. So so good!

Oh I just loved everything about this! These authors just click together and create fabulous stories. We met Ezra in the CU series and I wanted his story. I just knew there was more beneath the surface to the egotistical, loud, unapologetic playboy. Enter Anton, rival hockey player. They really get under each other's skin and it was so much fun to watch them go from enemies, to friends, to lovers. Their barbs and quips had me laughing out loud. The banter was on point, the dialogue fantastic, and their chemistry explosive! I just enjoyed watching them slowly dance around their feelings and emotions as they started to pull back layers the more time they spent together. It was sweet, funny, and scorching hot too!
We also get to revisit with some friends from the CU series and get introduced to many new characters, so many of them with stories just waiting to be told! This was such a great book, I flew through it and enjoyed it from start to finish!

best narrator ever

I love Iggy Toma as a narrator, I listen to books just because he has done them. This book holds a special place in my heart and I love it. Both of the characters are flawed but that is what makes them so great.
