About this listen

The moment I catch sight of the new coach, a spark ignites. Do we risk it all with a secret affair?

Jonah: I’m minding my own business when he struts into our locker room.

His confidence and sex appeal in his fitted suit and million-dollar smile are undeniable.

After picking my jaw off the floor, I collect myself. I need to find out more about him.

Do I follow him around? Yes. Do I make a fool of myself? Maybe.

While celebrating a win at the gay bar, my temper flares when I see him with another man. Do I dare take a chance?

Ryan: The first day at my new coaching job, he’s there. A winger whose dark hair and light blue eyes have me stumbling over my first words to the team.

Personal relations with players aren’t allowed. But he plays offense and I coach defense, so does it count?

Everywhere I go, he’s there. Tempting me.

My resolve is crumbling and I’m struggling to keep my distance.

When he catches me at a gay bar in a compromising position, it’s game over. Can we keep this hidden?

Crossing Lines is the second book in the college hockey series, Desert Ice Hockey, and is the follow up to the Rock U series. It features a coach with a dark past and a driven hockey player, a secret relationship, found family, hurt/comfort and a small age gap. Desert Ice Hockey follows a group of queer hockey players, known as the squad, while they each battle for their HEA.

Great addition to the series

I liked Jonah and Ryan together, they were both caring and loving and I was rooting for them. I did feel that they didn't do a good job keeping the relationship a secret. They were a bit careless but I found the ending satisfying.
The narrator was brilliant and I loved how he voiced the characters. He brought them to life. Fantastic narration.

Another good book in this series.

I enjoyed this story a lot. It’s a bit angsty but I like those kinds of books. Jonah and Ryan must keep their relationship a secret and there’s an issue with a stalker. The blurb spells it all out well so I won’t rehash it.

Finnley Cole continues to do a good job narrating this series but I still wish he had more distinctive voices for the two MCs. He does good voices with secondary characters, including accents, so I’m puzzled why he MC voices sound so similar; perhaps it’s just me. In any case I’m not bothered enough to stop listening to this series.

Beautiful love story.

Jonah, a rising star on the college hockey team, is totally smitten with Ryan, from the word go. But there's a problem: Ryan is one of the team's coaches. This could cause so many problems for both of them, Ryan also has a stalker, which means even more trouble might be waiting for them.

As soon as the guys hooked up, I did wonder why they would take such a risk, when there's literally weeks left of the season? I know they were both smitten kittens, but it really didn't make sense to me 🤔 Ryan in particular should have had the common sense not to take a risk which could impact them both negatively. Jonah has the excuse of youth, and the newness of his feelings, the excitement of young love and all that... However, I couldn't help but feel that Ryan should've reigned him in.

Despite this, their secret relationship, which is full of risks, and a whole lot of awkward moments, as they try to keep it hidden, really comes across as sweet and genuine. The bond between them is very well written by the author, and there was never a chance of their 'forbidden' love crashing and burning. There's some angst, but not a great deal and, on the whole, their love story plays out without any break ups, they're in obviously head over heels from the start. The epilogue is sweet, and leaves the couple in a great place.

As usual, a great performance from Finley Cole. He always brings the characters and their emotions to life. He captured their angst, but also their love for one another. Well narrated, and a lovely romance.
