Baden: A Pittsburgh Titans Novel

ljudbok


After suffering a horrific injury that threatens to end his career, Baden Oulett is about to learn that sometimes a fresh start is just what the doctor ordered.

I worked my whole life to achieve one goal—play professional hockey. As part of the defending Cup champion Arizona Vengeance, I was living my dream until one split second decision destroyed it all. Instead of lacing up my skates and hitting the ice, I’ve spent my days in rehab and physical therapy just so I could walk again. When a coaching opportunity with the Pittsburgh Titans is presented to me, I find myself with a career I had never considered but which allows me to continue being part of the sport that I love.

While my injuries are physical, the same can’t be said for the woman I rescued. Suffering from wounds that can’t be seen, Sophie Winters has withdrawn from the world in fear and guilt. I didn’t know Sophie before that fateful night and have only met her once since, but I refuse to let her face her demons alone. Determined to be a friend, I support Sophie in the only way I know how
 by simply being there.

Through our shared trauma, Sophie and I begin to find peace within one another. As we grow closer, what started as friendship becomes more intimate until our broken pieces become one. But can a love born of anguish endure, or will the pain of our past prove too much to overcome?

This is an epically slow, slow burn. That said, the friendship build up is both beautiful and heartwarming. The mental and physical health issues the MCs struggle with are handled gracefully and compassionately, without becoming too much. Unfortunately, the romance level is practically low for most of the book which is especially noticeable since S.B’s other hockey romances contain quite a bit more sizzle and spice. Both the MCs are really sweet and mature characters that work well in this type of “start up”-book with a wider focus because of the team building and new frontiers as well as the romance. The Audiobook is excellently narrated by total pro’s Aidan Snow and Lessa Lamb.
