3.5 STARS.. NEW TEAM, NEW CHARACTERS & GOOD START

This is a sweet, very sexy, light hockey romance where a one night stand between strangers backfires into a fake relationship and a fake engagement.. and, along the way, they fall for each other. Yes, this type of predictable plot’s been done many times before by other authors, but not with the hot Sawyer Bennett touch. It was an entertaining, low-drama journey between likeable characters who really weren’t looking for ‘the one’.. which made this story a feel-good, angstless slow-build of chemistry, animal attraction and respect for one another leading to love.

Worth a credit? A nice easy-going dual POV storyline and the narration was good.. so yeah creditworthy.

The Fake Fiancé

Brooke Perron decided to have a one night stand. She threw caution to the wind and said yes to the sexiest man she’s ever seen. After a night of mind blowing sex, she knows she’ll never see him again. She has taken a job with the Arizona Vengeance Organization where her Father has been selected to be the Head Coach. As she’s getting settled into her office, a blast from her recent past breezes in and things get interesting when Daddy walks in and finds them in a very compromising position.
Bishop Scott is looking for a new start. Part of that new start is transferring to the new expansion NHL team, the Arizona Vengeance. He decides to go out and hit the town and encounters a gorgeous woman who is looking for the same thing he is…no strings attached sex. What he didn’t count on was seeing the same woman when he goes to the Vengeance facility. Remembering what they shared gets them both hot and bothered….then boom, she’s introducing him as her Fiancé!
The Good: This was a fun and sexy read! I enjoyed their chemistry and how they had to pretend that they were engaged. Brooke’s Father was hilarious in his dealings with Bishop in the true fashion of a Dad who is protective of his Daughter.
The Bad: Ok, I love everything that Sawyer Bennett writes, however, I did not like the way this ended. I felt like I needed more of a bang at the end. Especially with the craziness of Brooke’s friend and the way Brooke ran off after the shit hit the fan.
The Ugly: A friend who is jealous that makes trouble for someone who’s helping her sucks and on top of that, she lies and tries to ruin lives while she’s on her own destructive path.
As always, Sawyer Bennett spins a tale of drama, comedy, and sexiness. This spin off of the Carolina Fury Series is just as addictive and leaves you wanting to go to hockey games just to ogle the players. Each story is different, each player has their own unique story. You will fall in love with her band of Alpha Hockey Players. Bishop and Brooke are a match made in heaven and when he figures out he’s in love, your heart will melt. I highly recommend this new series. You won’t be disappointed. Solid 4 ½ Star Read!

Score One for Bishop!

Mood Listening is totally a thing!
I tried this book when it first came out and I just wasn’t feeling it.
But I couldn’t get these characters out of my head so I thought I would give it another try and I am very glad I did because Bishop Scott captured my heart.

He and Brooke found themselves in a situation and its funny really when her father walks in on them and this elaborate scheme then becomes the storyline.

I loved how they never took each other too serious; they set rules and then broke em all. They made this book fun to listen to and fall in love with.

Even the wicked witch didn’t put a damper on how much I enjoyed these characters also there was little to no dramlama which if you know me is a deal breaker, I don’t like drama for the sake of it.
I can’t wait for other members of the team to get there HEA’s I will be keeping my eyes out for more.

LOVED the narration Lance Greenfield is one of my top 5 favorite male narrators of all time. Kirsten Leigh’s voice is smooth as silk and I love her tone.

So glad I finally started this series!

Bishop and Brooke meet with the intent of a one-night stand. They surprisingly see each other at the Vengeance offices, and after things get out of hand, Brooke blurts out that she and Bishop are engaged. After the initial shock and a few “hell no’s,” Brooke convinces Bishop to go along w/her fake engagement story until they can orchestrate a breakup.

With a fake engagement as their story, Bishop and Brooke don’t see why they can’t continue a physical relationship. After all, their one-night stand was the most memorable night for both of them. They’re both adults. What could go wrong? Famous last words...

Both with their own backstory and reason for staying single, their chemistry is off the charts. Their physical attraction is obvious, but both are surprised as they slowly get to know one another, that they’re really good people. This was a great love story. Seriously hot scenes and plenty of dirty talk, but you know that’s what Sawyer brings to her hot AF hockey players.

Bishop’s teammates are great, and I can’t wait to get to their stories. I listened to the audiobook, and Lance Greenfield and Kirsten Leigh do a wonderful job narrating.

If you like hot and funny

I got this book free from a friend and I am hooked I can not wait to listen to the rest of the series. The narrator’s were really good. The story is great it’s romantic funny steamy and the chemistry of the characters is great. I loved the interaction between the other players. Great book

Predictable but sweet romance between a hockey player and the coach’s daughter.

The coach’s daughter has her own career which adds to the interest and there is an interesting case if a crazy woman harassing some of the men. A good sale choice but would be great for the Escape Package.

What a start to a series

4.5 stars

I started with Tacker in this Arizona Vengeance series, and it made me want to find out all about the other players and the ladies who make them love.

And what a way to start the series.. one night stand turned fake fiance, love it. Bishop and Brooke embark on their fake relationship to cover them both, but soon things turn.. deeper. Realer. These two mix heat with emotion in the best way.

The audiobook is awesome!

A light, entertaining listen

Hockey player Bishop Scott gets the shock of his life when he sees his latest one-night stand, Brooke Perron, again. Right away they pick up where they left off and have their hands all over each other when his new coach walks in on them in her office. Turns out, she's his new coach's daughter; and to save him from her dad's wrath, Brooke introduces Bishop as her fiancée!

This was a light, entertaining listen. There's little drama there's lots of humor and chemistry between the characters. I'm looking forward to listening to the other players' stories, and I hope Dominic and Coach Perron get their own Happily Every After, too!

Lance Greenfield is a new to me author. He and Kirsten Leigh, who is slowly becoming one of my favorites, did a great job bringing this book to life.

Bishop is a fake relationship sports romance written in dual first person POV. It ends with a HEA. No cliffhanger, no cheating.

I received this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Great start to the season....

Hockey romance is my most favorite genre to read or in this case listen to. Still an audio book newbie I always wonder if I’ll like the narrators. Lance Greenfield brought life to Bishop making me swoon for him with his smooth, sexy voice. While Kristen Leigh was just as good bringing a beautiful cute voice to Brooke.

I was hooked from the beginning. Ms. Bennett knows hockey and writes amazing stories so it was a no brainer for a girl in love with hockey romance to pick this up. Sawyer knows how to bring the heat. Bishop and Brooke had off the charts chemistry. It was fun watching as they grew and built their relationship.

I enjoyed not only getting to know Brook and Bishop but the whole team. I’m excited to read all about them and can’t wait to listen to more. Cause man audio books are my new best friend and add so much more to a great book.

Sawyer Bennett does hockey so good!

I love the way she puts the story in line then throws in a twist before she puts a shot on goal! *forever fan here* 😍
