About this listen

The last thing Ravi Chandola needs is to define his career by a single mistake he made off the ice. But it’s not that easy when you’re the captain of an NHL team and the press is always watching, waiting to pounce.

And to make matters worse, Ravi now has community service under the supervision of a former professional figure skater who hates him with a fiery passion. But things aren’t so simple when it comes to ice king Adrien Fischer.

He’s hot but cold.

He’s soft but sharp.

And in spite of telling Ravi there can never be anything between them, Adrien can’t seem to stay out of Ravi’s orbit.

Ravi’s life is complicated enough without this man who can’t seem to make up his mind, but as much as Ravi wants to walk away, he knows he’s in it for however long Adrien will have him. So what hope does he have left? Just a miracle that the ice king’s heart will thaw and allow Ravi in.

Breakaway is the first book in the Sin Bin: West Coast series featuring the fictional NHL team the Denver Huskies. This story contains bad geography, a best friend with feelings-burritos, platonic cuddling, cute squirrels, spicy food, and of course a happily ever after.

This wonderful sports romance novel not only grabbed and captivated my attention the entire book, but it tugged on my heartstrings too. E.M. Lindsey is a gifted author, I enjoy their writing style and how realistic and relatable their characters and storylines are which makes them easy to connect with. Ravi Chandola, a professional hockey player and the captain of his NHL team. He had to work hard to get where he was today and he almost lost it all after making a stupid mistake after a team event. Fined and assigned to community service brings him to work with Adrian Fischer, a former professional figure skater. Adrian used to crush on Ravi until he found out what he did, now he has nothing but animosity towards him. But the two need to work together and as much as they try to avoid each other, it is impossible not see and interact with each other. I adored these two, each one deals with their own inner demons, but once Adrian saw Ravi for who he truly was he saw past his anger. I loved how everything played out in this book, the story is beautifully plotted with plenty of drama, angst, heartfelt emotions and a slow burn romance. Also loved the camaraderie amongst his teammates, Adrian’s friend Noah was great too. E.M. Lindsey, thank you for another fabulous story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the amazing narration, John Solo delivers an outstanding performance bringing these characters and their story to life. He has a complete understanding of the character he portrays, gives each a voice that is a perfect fit for that character’s persona, sounds believable in every role he plays and just as I picture the character to sound. You could hear how much heart he puts in to his work as he captures all the character’s emotions and projects them into his performance and has you feeling every single one. This entertaining storyteller is a versatile voice artist and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fabulous listen.

Well-written and fabulously narrated! The story was full of emotions and feels. I loved the story. The characters were perfect, though some were more likable than others. It just all worked. I'll definitely be devouring the rest of the series.

Arc review for GRR

Story 5 stars
Narration 4 stars

Adrien is an amputee figure skater who has lost his leg and Olympic dreams right at the height of his career by a drunk driver.

Ravi is a hockey player also at the height of his career when he gets into a car accident. He has no memory of what happened so no way to defend himself and even though there is no real evidence to prove it, he is arrested for dui and is sentenced to community service at Adriens job working with kids, seeing nobody was hurt in the accident. Given Adriens experience with drunk drivers he hates Ravi but he also can't stay away from the charming sweet man.

I loved this book and listened to it in one day. The characters were wonderful, well developed and had great chemistry. The story was interesting from start to finish, very well written. Not only did the romance suck me in but also the mystery of what really happened to Ravi. It kept me not wanting to stop listening from start to finish. This was a slow burn but with some great steamy moments later on. The relationship was developed really lovely over time which I loved. I especially loved that although they had a enemies type of relationship, they were very loveable characters and neither could resist each other from being flirty and sweet. Sometimes in enemy type stories they fight so much that I don't enjoy the story or the characters but I really enjoyed how this author blended the love/hate and kept the story light with great banter. I absolutely loved it and would recommend it.

I really enjoyed John's Narration. He expresses emotions wonderfully and brings the story to life. He did different voices for the characters and the Canadian French accents of the side characters was pretty convincing. As a Canadian, I approve. He did the kid voices and the few female voices well too. I just wish the 2 MCs voices were more differentiated.

Wonderful story

Breakaway was emotional and intense. Ravi and Adrien had a slow burn romance and I enjoyed watching them slowly yet surely come together.

I really liked Ravi teammates - they were a funny bunch.

I thoroughly enjoyed the narrator’s performance.

Emotional and slow burn
