A Merry Brutal Christmas

North Shore Titans Hockey, Book 4

By: E.V. Olsen

Narrated by: Anthony Palmini, Corvin King

Tis the season to be naughty....

College hockey rivals turned lovers Jackson Reed and Killian Blackwell are about to face their toughest match yet: Christmas with both their families at the Reed mansion.

Between sexual tension to melt the estate's ice sculptures, and a shared future that's anything but certain, this holiday season is bound to be unforgettable.

The only question is whether the mansion—and their families—will survive their particular brand of Christmas spirit.

**This story features the couple from Brutal Titan and is an extension of their story. It is recommended to listen to Brutal Titan first.**

Perfect extra

I loved this little extra of Killian and Jackson. I'm not sure if it's just me, but it sounded like Corvin's voice sounded different towards the end. Not sure what it was.

Not an reenactment

I am cackling😂😂that was absolutely hilarious; especially with Jackson mom bringing the green popsicles at the end. I freaking love this series

Cute little holiday story (with hunting involved!)

This was a cute holiday short story to add to the North Shore Titans universe. I would give the story a 3.5 but the audio made me bump it up to a 4 stars. I liked the author had the characters who were the main ones in book 2 reprise their roles and not bring in different narrators. Helped keep these characters alive in my head and I felt like I went right back to book 2 with Jackson and Killian's love story.

I this one we get to see these two again during the holidays, hunting for fun again haha. The end with the reveal what the others heard was amazing, I burst out laughing haha. I did like the little hint of what was going to happen next with how one was assaulted and didnt know if hockey would be their thing in the future. It made sense and helped with the rest of the series as more time progressed and some went pro and some didnt.

I loved these two and felt their connection and love. The narration helped cement that easily in this one. You felt their anxiety being away from each other, their longing. Wanting to not be far from each other in the future was also on their minds. It was what a lot of couples go through so it felt like it hit home easily (I went through it in college, so I could definitely relate). Done really well for just a short story.

Another EV Banger

Another banger (pun intended) by @ E.V. Olsen, mother just knows how to feed us perfect hockey lurve!

You need to read Brutal Titan first. This novella follows Kill and Jackson. It's a great peak into how their relationship is going and covers Reeds PTSD from his attack in their book.
I was cracking up because these two fools are so unhinged but also they love each other so much! -

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hmm you'll never see a green popsicle the same way

I reviewed an ACL however, I had already read this book late last year and loved it! I give it 5 fucking stars!

Love these two narrators so much

Cut but what happened to Corvin’s voice in the last couple of chapters?! It changed like a voice modulator
