Shutout

Rules of the Game, Book 2

De: Avery Keelan

Narrado por: Stella Bloom, Gabriel Spires

He's the tall, tattooed stranger I hooked up with on Halloween... and now he's my new roommate.

After a sudden cross-country move, I'm stuck crashing with my older brother and two of his hockey teammates for sophomore year. I'm not thrilled about shacking up with three athletes and their stinky gear, rotating door of hookups, and tendency to inhale every snack in the house—just some reasons of many that hockey players aren't my type.

When I walk in the front door with an armload of boxes, however, I'm faced with another problem. My anonymous fling from two months ago is Tyler Donahue, the superstar goalie for my brother's team.

We both agree to pretend it never happened, but it quickly becomes clear neither of us can forget. Before I know it, we're exchanging heated glances from across the room, sending spicy texts at all hours of the night, and stealing kisses behind closed doors.

Since my overprotective brother would freak out, we decide to keep things between us a secret. There's no point in rocking the boat when I don't want a boyfriend, and Tyler doesn't have time for a girlfriend with his grueling hockey schedule. But as our no-strings arrangement turns into something deeper and more meaningful, I begin to see a softer side of the broody, closed-off goalie. He's gentle, protective, and giving in every sense of the word. Despite what I told myself going in, I'm falling hard and falling fast.

We said we'd keep things casual, but hearts have a way of breaking all the rules.

Shutout is a college hockey romance with lots of spice, swoon, and a happily ever after. It's the second book in the Rules of the Game series and can be enjoyed as a standalone.

It was just okay.

The characters were great, but nothing seemed to happen. It was sweet, but hard to stay invested in.

Good Hockey Listen

I read Offside a while ago and finally got to the next book in the series.
Shutout is a friend's little sister with some forced proximity. The chemistry and attraction between Sera and Tyler are off the charts. That was one of my favorite parts of this book.

I loved that both characters had their own passions and drive. They both wanted to succeed in their own way with those passions. But to also have a seriousness to the storyline that made me connect more with the characters.


This is a great listen, and I thoroughly enjoyed this audio. The narrators did a great job with this story. I listened to it in one sitting and loved it.

when he punched the guy even though they weren't together

I love everything the way he loves her and the way she loves him is so romantic

Really liked it

I really like this story, and the spice was just 🔥🔥, tink and hades are so cute

Tyler Donahue is the mvp

If I could re read this over and over I would. This was my first time listening and the narrators were great!

Love

One of the best I’ve read. Sneaky, hot, love. Always a win. Plus, a great ending.

My heart is a puddle

SQUISH goes my heart! Tink and Hades are GOALS! I absolutely adored this book and was so happy that it includes the bonus chapters. Loved the narration! 1000/10!

Love this series

I have loved both of their books in the series. such easy lessons. Very good characterising with the perfect amount of space

Love this series

I’m gonna start with what I dislike. That I don’t have another book in this series to read right now. In terms of the positive love the story it’s so good to hear stories with real issues vs the silly miscommunication drama that happens as plot points in other books. I love the inner monologues and the character development. The use of actual coping mechanisms that slowly become ineffective thus forcing the characters to find new ways of dealing with issues. Sooo good! I’m sad I listened to this book in 5 days and also ready for the next one.

I want more!!

Okay So we are going to need Dallas’ story, Reed’s story (bc what awesome guy deserves to not find happiness after his high school GF, cheats on him!) and I’d love to hear Bailey’s Brother’s story!!! He was kissing a Mysterious Red Head in book 1!! Love Love Love Tyler aka: Hades and Sarah aka: Tink’s love story!! It was so sweet!! Okay… soooo I believe that is all! 👍🏼
