About this listen

Rule number one: Don’t fall in love with the coach.

Gabriel Theriault’s been skating on thin ice for the past two seasons with Toronto, but his arrest following an off-ice fight is the final straw.

His only shot at redemption is to start over in Evanston and prove that he still has what it takes to be a pro player.

No more fights. No more drinking. No more random hookups.

Rule number two: The team always comes first.

Years ago, Lance Tate’s on-ice injury ended his career and marriage.

His long road to recovery led to a job he loves as assistant coach with the Evanston Otters, and he wouldn’t dream of giving that up.

Until he meets Gabriel.

The French Canadian is 15 years younger, burdened by too much responsibility, and the most intriguing man Lance has ever met.

He’s also the absolute last man Lance should get involved with.

The draw between them is impossible to resist—even if it could cost them the game they love.

Their only chance at winning it all is to change the rules.

Trigger warning: Changing the Rules includes a supporting character with advancing dementia. Frank discussion about an emotionally neglectful parent and verbal abuse. Use of mild homophobic slurs and brief mention of suicidal ideation (non-graphic).

James Edward Jones did a great performance. His voice is very enjoyable to listen to and it brought the story to life. He kept a good pace and expressed the emotions wonderfully. He gave the characters distinct voices that suited them well and made it easy to follow the story. His Canadian French accent was spot on to me (I'm Canadian). I absolutely would listen to this narrator again. Other than this authors previous books I havent heard his name before but his tone is very pleasant to listen to. i definitely recommend listening to him.

Fabulous performance

Gabriel and Lance are both in love with hockey, but they've got some major physical and emotional scars from the sport. They have instant chemistry but both realize what they risk by getting involved. Fortunately, they are mature enough to act like adults and work through the obstacles together. Great listen even if you aren't a hockey fan. James Edward Jones does a wonderful job of capturing the way these two feel about each other and their caution and initial reservations as well as their joyous ending.

Wonderful thoughtful characters

MM, Age Gap, Hockey, Romance. Second book in the series and best listened to in series order although it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone. Another fantastic couple whose story has been brought to life with great narration. Great to see so many familiar characters pop up, An emotional and at times a tear jerker but a well deserved HEA.

The Cost Could Be High.

This is a lovely story of a hockey player and one of his coaches who fall in love. Gabriel and Laurence are forced to hide their relationship out of fear of how it would impact their jobs and position on the team.

Their story is sweet and heartwarming - they both brought so much into each others lives. So much love and support.

The audio narration was very good. Portraying the emotions of the characters really well.

Lovely!
