About this listen

Two childhood friends. Two broken hearts. One impromptu road trip to get away from everything. That’s all this was supposed to be. After all, I’ve been living in the friend zone for years now.

But hockey heartthrob Jasper Gervais isn’t looking at me like a friend anymore. And he isn’t touching me like one either.

To his fans, he’s the handsome, talented athlete on TV. To me, he’s still the lost boy with sad eyes and a heart of gold.

The man I’ve loved in secret for years.

So when my life falls apart on my wedding day, it only makes sense that he’s the one to swoop in and save me. And when his world comes crashing down around him, I’m there to return the favor.

But the more time we spend alone, the more Jasper doesn’t feel like a friend at all. He feels like everything I’ve ever wanted and thought I could never have.

Our feelings aren’t straightforward though. They twist and turn around the pain of his past and the reality of my present.

Jasper Gervais acts like he wants me.

But after years of turning me away, he’s going to need to prove it.

10/10

The smut is real, the love is real, the story is phenomenally writing, and the passion between Sloanne and Jasper is so amazing. 10/10!

Good book

It's quite good, though, not quite excellent

There's decent plot, character development etc. But the conflict is quite thin, characters are either too perfect or written specificaly so you can hate them. In general, I do think everything wraps up too perfectly, too flawlessly.

Despite this, the book is good, enjoyable to read.

The performers are excellent

JASPER!!!!!

Okay this was my least favorite out of the series so far, but it was still amazing. Like the way Jasper stands up for her and the ring scene. I died when he told her ex that they lost it while they fucked. LIKE screaming and kicking my feet!!! What a fucking power move ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥


“I can’t ever loose you”
“You won’t”
“ I might because I think I’m about to fuck everything up between us”

“I'm going to make you cum with his ring on. As one final fuck you to that asshole.”

“See Sloane. You can wear someone else’s ring, but we both know you’ve always been mine”
🌶️🌶️🌶️/5

Incredible

Elsie Silver is a phenomenal author. One of my favourites, and once again she does not disappoint.

The performances for this book are out of this world. It’s not often you get voices to match what you think they sound like after you read a book, but this was spot on.

I probably could gush for a very long time about this one. Already warned my husband I’d be buying every version available ;)

Mix small town, hockey, and found family vibes together in one book? I'm hooked!

I just loved this one so much. I'm a sucker for sports romance & this one did not disappoint. The "we aren't cousins" joke between everyone they know, was so funny. & the banter between all of the characters was too good!

Also the spice .. 🥵

Great narration and story

I think this is my favourite of the series so far and I definitely waffled with my rating. I think the storyline definitely could have dug deeper into both the MMC and FMC’s backstories so I dropped it down a star because I think that would have made the story more powerful overall. I adored the narration and think it was definitely spot on. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Good Read

I loved this book. It’s entertaining, intriguing, fun and a good read. Jasper and Sloan are captivating, relatable, entertaining characters. They captured my attention from the start and held it until the very end. I loved their romance and how they get to their HEA. Silver did a good job of showing the various types of family dynamics that there are. This is a good series and this book did not disappoint. These characters are some of my favourites. I love that we got to see so much of the characters from the previous book in this series and some of the characters from the previous series.

I enjoyed the audio version of this book and the narrators. They added to my overall enjoyment of the book.

A work of art

Surprise surprise, another Elsie Silver book I loved. This book is a sports romance about unrequited childhood love in a small town, plus a road trip, and the perfect amount of spice.

I love the cast of characters in this Chestnut Springs series. They are hilarious and sweet and wonderful. But, I really appreciated that in this book the MCs, Sloane and Jasper, go on a road trip. It nicely changed up the setting, and allowed Sloane and Jasper’s long term friendship to really come to the forefront…and then develop further😉. I loved the tie in to Elsie’s first series too.

The tension and banter between Sloane and Jasper are so great. The spice is chef’s kiss delicious. The story is so deep and I so enjoyed getting to know more details about Jasper’s past and Sloane’s family.

Teddy and CJ really brought this story to life. They are fantastic narrators.
