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.

Story
I’m the face of professional bull riding—the golden boy. Or at least I was, until it all blew up in my face. Now my agent says I have to clean up my image, so I’m stuck with his ball-busting daughter for the rest of the season as my “full-time supervision.”

Story
Rosie Belmont has been driving me wild for years. The good kind of wild. The bad kind of wild. But mostly the kind of wild that comes with wanting your best friend’s little sister and knowing you can’t have her. After living in the city, she comes blasting back into Rose Hill like a storm. Beautiful, messy, and chaotic. And one wide-eyed desperate plea for a job is all it takes for me to hire her.

Story
Keeping things professional with my employees has never been an issue. Until she waltzed onto my property. Billie is talented. She's mouthy. And she's so damn tempting. I can't stop thinking about all the ways I could take her down a peg. I can't stop thinking about her, period. We clash from the moment we meet. And in a small town, on an even smaller farm, it's hard to keep your distance. It's even harder to keep that friction from turning to fire. But keeping my distance? That might be the biggest struggle of all.

Story
Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

Story
With wedding planning underway and a short timeline, my best friend, Lia, has recruited me to help her battle the snarly beast that is Mrs. Beaver. Not scared at all, I accept the challenge as her man-in-waiting--aka, man of honor--and take matters into my own hands. The only problem is, with every second we draw closer to the wedding, I'm starting to see my best girl in a different light. She's always been beautiful to me, but now . . . I find myself staring a touch too long. My hand lingering for one more minute. And when she's upset? Allowing her to sleep in my bed.

The quintessential question asked to every couple. And the answer is usually some bubbly, lovey dovey tale of being struck in the bum by Cupid’s arrow. My meet cute (well, not so meet cute) is slightly different. I was trolling a wealthy neighborhood in Beverly Hills, searching for someone to take me as their bride, you know, to make my arch nemesis jealous who consequently just fired me.

Story
Carter Beckett is the NHL’s resident bad boy, top player both on the ice and in the bedroom, and quite possibly the sexiest man to ever grace my field of vision. But worst of all? He knows it. He’s arrogant, self-centered, and the man doesn’t seem to know what a filter is, let alone how to use one. He’s had everything served to him on a silver platter, including endless strings of women, and apparently, I’m up next. I have the solution to all my sexual frustrations in a drawer at home, and it’s far less complicated than Carter Beckett.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

Story
Am I friends with JP Cane? Ha! That's laughable. Besides the fact that he’s adopted some far-fetched notion from the movie When Harry Met Sally that says men and women can't be friends and work together, it’s safe to say we're not friends. He's annoyingly loud, obnoxiously handsome, and has made an art out of poking all my hot buttons...multiple times a day. So you can imagine how disgruntled I am when I not only have to fly to San Francisco with him for work, but stay in the same penthouse. Yup, we're sharing the same air, 24-7. We're talking full-fledged working roommates.

He always says the only solid thing in his life is our friendship. He’s Honey Mountain's favorite player and I’m what you’d call "a relationship girl". But when I find myself single for the first time since turning sixteen, I make Niko an offer he can’t refuse. Who better to show me what I’ve been missing?

I'm in the business of creating fairy tales. Theme parks. Production companies. Five-star hotels. Everything could be all mine if I renovated Dreamland. My initial idea of hiring Zahra was good in theory, but then I kissed her. Things spiraled out of control once I texted her using an alias. By the time I realized where I went wrong, it was too late. People like me don't get happy endings. Not when we're destined to ruin them.

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 ;)

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.

Great story, mixed AI narrator was a disappointment
The storyline and writing was great but every now and then the narrator sounds AI generated which really throws off the book. If this continues in coming books I will no longer be purchasing through audible. It is really frustrating and breaks up the flow of the story.

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.

sweet and spicy
This was a pleasant listen and pretty low angst despite the story having potential for an angsty listen. Elsie Silver's writing somehow draws me in, keeps my attention, and makes me cheer for a HEA. This was not my favorite of the series, but it was a lovely listen.
✅️childhood friends to lovers
✅️unrequited love
✅️found family - love the dynamics of the Eaton gang.
🌶🌶 this was a little on the meh side for me. If your thing is being told what to do... then you will probably enjoy it 😉
🎧⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ excellent narration by Teddy Hamilton and CJ Bloom.
