About this listen

Performed with duet narration by Vanessa Edwin and Robert Hatchet!

My plan when I win a date in Vegas with my brother’s hockey star best friend? Poker and go to sleep early. Instead, I wake up with a ring on my finger and the sexy athlete naked in my bed.

But Asher’s my best friend too so we’ll get this annulled and laugh about this secret for years to come.

Trouble is our wedding pics went viral overnight.

Now everyone thinks we’re a real couple. We race back home, where I’ve just landed the big art commission of my dreams and he’s launching a sports charity so we need to look like we meant to tie the knot.

Easy enough. We’ll claim we’ve been secretly in love, while staying in separate rooms for the rest of the hockey season.

The last thing either one of us wants is to ruin a decade-long friendship by falling into bed again.

But I experience a new side of my husband at home. He cooks for me, encourages me…and buys me so many toys.

And, it’s more fun to share your toys with a friend.

We’re just enjoying temporary marital benefits.

Except, the more times he calls me his wife, the more I start to wonder if Asher was ever pretending?

And if my heart is ready to take the biggest risk of all.

Tropes: brother’s best friend, friends to lovers, marriage of convenience, marriage pact, he’s been secretly in love with her for years, forced proximity, my wife, pro hockey

5 STARS! Full of 'it's always been you' vibes!

The Proposal Play by Lauren Blakely is a sizzling hockey romance that delivered everything I crave when I pick up a romance novel in this trope. Asher, a charismatic NHL star, and Maeve, a talented artist, share undeniable chemistry that leaps off the page. Their marriage-of-convenience blossoms into a heartfelt and steamy romance full of "it's always been you" vibes that perfectly balance the emotional depth of their relationship with the fiery, passionate connection they share.

Blakely's storytelling shines here as she weaves her signature style of humor with plenty of heartfelt moments and deliciously spicy tension into a captivating, consuming narrative. I listened to the audiobook, which was narrated in duet by Vanessa Edwin & Robert Hatchet. Both narrators turned in amazing performances, doing a fantastic job of conveying the electric chemistry between their characters. This best-friends-to-lovers, brother’s best friend romance left me sated, satisfied and sighing in delight at Asher and Maeve's happily ever after! Five smooches from me for The Proposal Play by Lauren Blakely!

Best Friends to Lovers & MARRIED 💜

As always, Lauren Blakely delivers a deliciously heartfelt and spicy hockey romcom! Maeve and Asher are what best friends to lovers & fake marriage dreams are made of!

The audio is fabulous! It's duet (my favorite!) with Vanessa Edwin and Robert Hatchet and they are soooo good as Maeve and Asher! They bring the story to life in such a great way, and portray the characters and all their emotions so well! 100% worth the listen along with reading.

Maeve and Asher are best friends, & I love their relationship. The banter, "question for you", how they each fight their feelings for the other, it's a fun read! There are some heavier parts, & Asher has some demons to face, but how he & Maeve work through those things together is great! I love the way Asher loves Maeve, & how he also loves the phrase "MY WIFE"...SWOONING!

In case it isn't obvious, absolutely say "yes" to this one!
