Mile High

Windy City Series, Book 1

By: Liz Tomforde

Narrated by: Winston James, Mari

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night.

What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

But every road trip blurs the lines, and I can't quite figure out if I keep pushing that flight attendant call button in order to push her buttons or if it's more than that.

Stevie: I've been a flight attendant for years. I thought I'd see it all, but when my new job lands me onboard working for the most egotistical and self-righteous diva in the NHL, I start to second guess everything. Including the promise I made to myself of never hooking up with an athlete again . . . no matter how annoyingly tempting he may be.

Zanders is unfiltered, unapologetic, and too attractive for his own good. He loves his image, but I hate everything about it.

Everything but him.

Contains mature themes.

Really bad narration

I read this book and gave it 5+ stars; one of my favorites of 2022 and was excited to get the audio yet the experience has been very dissapointing. Could not finish it. The narrators by no means match the wording or the emotions. Very cringy. So sad that this was the experience as I was looking forward to it.

Awful male voice good story though

The male voice just sounds very very old rather than like someone around the MMC’s age

Decent story, weird narration

The story showed decent character development, narration was way off for hockey players, so was story line. It’s extremely long, which usually means …overall it didn’t hold interest. Good for background noise while doing other things.

Could have been better

Felt like this book was longer than necessary. His playboy ways at the beginning was cringey and disgusting. I get he was a “hit it and quit it” guy, but just wasn’t a fan. I did love him helping her feel comfortable about herself but I felt like her own internal self love success story wasn’t loud enough. It felt like “oh a man loves me so now I love myself”.

Also, be warned, neither of them joins the no mile high club. Missed opportunity if you ask me.

The love he has for her is so strong

Great book I wish the ending would go a little bit longer and have him asking the question about marriage
