Offside with #55

Hockey Hotties, Book 6

By: Piper Rayne

Narrated by: Joe Arden, Melissa Moran

The last thing any professional hockey player wants is to be the old man in the game. The guy who doesn’t know when it’s time to retire. Still, I can’t bear the thought of leaving the game.

This past year I’ve reflected on all my regrets, and I told myself that once I retire it’ll be the time to find the right woman. But this is where it gets tricky.

I think I’ve found her—although she’ll deny our connection to anyone who asks. We’ve been sleeping together casually, and since I’m still playing hockey, I’ve let her get what she wants—me—whenever she wants.

After being told my career as a player is over, the owner of Florida Fury grants me a shot to stay in the game. A coaching position I didn’t know I wanted until it was offered. The catch? He’s also passing the family business down to his daughter.

Who’s his daughter?

The woman who’s been in and out of my bed for the past year. Which means the woman I intend to make mine is now my new boss.

When you find the one, everything can change.

Great story of 2 very strong personalities. Their love is stronger than their lifetime thinking of what they really want.
The friends and family connections are wonderful in this book and the series. I recommend this book, series and author!

Best in Series

Exceptional story and narration. My favorite in the series. Watching this couple come to terms with their feelings and overcome their fears related to commitment and family was such a treat. Don’t miss this 5 star listen!

Kane and Jana

Goodness! I think Ms. Piper Rayne saved the best for last in this series. Don't get me wrong each story was equally amazing but this one.... it hit me hard. Kane and Jana embark on a journey of self discovery, feelings neither of them expected and a finding a beautiful connection that made my heart warm. This is an outstanding story, I did not want it to end. I enjoyed, adored and loved every single second of it.
Joe Arden and Melissa Moran did an excellent job bringing this charming characters and beautiful story to life.

best of the series

I think I liked this one the best out of the series!

I loved that we got to see both of these characters sprinkled throughout the series and to see their story come to fruition was satisfying! They both have worked so hard to get to where they are in their journey and the way they fight their attraction for each other makes their submission into their romance that much sweeter. I love stories where a powerful woman finally feels safe enough to let her guard down and trust in a man to be vulnerable and have faith that her vulnerability will not be seen as a weakness but a strength. And a man who will worship the ground she walks on because he knows just how amazing she is in her power and in her vulnerability.

Also I love Melissa Moran! I haven't heard something from her in a minute and she is so talented!

The Final Story is a Win!

The final book in the Hockey Hotties Series was a good one! Jana and Kane have had cameos in the other books, so it was nice to see them get their own book. Piper Rayne took two very strong leading characters and made their chemistry electric. A great ending to a great series. 100% would recommend. Melissa and Joe bring great life to Jana and Kane and make the characters all the more believable.

Great addition

😍❤️❤️❤️❤️ as always very enjoyable. I always love the fact that the whole gang shows up and just makes it all the more enjoyable

Favorite in the series

Love this story of Kane and Jana. Excited to see the Kingsman series that will come from this too.

Sexual tension!

Kane and Jana’s romance has everything I love about Piper Rayne’s storytelling. An Alpha hero, a strong and spirited heroine and plenty of snark, sass and sexual tension. I enjoyed the way Kane and Jana bicker with each other because we all know how hot the sex is when they finally decide to make up. And when these two strong personalities bring out the soft side of each other is when the true magic happens. Plus the hilarious shenanigans of the other hockey players and the craziness at the team building retreat had me in giggles . I listened to the audiobook and I really enjoyed the narration performances of Joe Arden and Melissa Moran who were perfect as Kane and Jana.

A Fantastic Hockey Romance

Offside with #55 is bursting with hockey action, sizzling spice, and heaps of heart. Team shenanigans run wild with the Florida Fury crew, including the mini Furies. This story is a slow-burn hockey romance with all the signature heart & humor you’ve come to love from the Hockey Hotties.

Joe Arden is one of my top five favorite narrators. His narration of Kane, the veteran hockey player at a professional crossroads is exceptional. Joe gives an emotional, charismatic, and tantalizing performance. As always, his narrative diversity is amazing as he shifts from one character to another, giving each a distinctive voice flawlessly. I have listened to a smattering of Melissa Moran’s narrations and I thoroughly enjoy her work. She is fantastic in hockey romcoms and this is my new favorite performance of hers. Melissa brings Jana to life perfectly with a passionate, hilarious, boss b***h performance. Her impassioned embodiment of the heiress and team owner is heartbreaking, endearing, and sultry. Joe & Melissa tear it up in the booth and create aural magic together. If you haven’t read/listened to the Hockey Hotties series, take my advice and start at the beginning. These hot hockey players and their fierce WAGS will make you snort-laugh, smile, maybe cry a little, and definitely swoon! I can’t wait to binge the audiobooks and experience these awesome HEAs all over again!
