Runaway Bride and Prejudice

Appies Hockey Romance

By: Emma St. Clair

Narrated by: Rock Engle, Emily Ellet

There's one rule smart hockey players know not to break: never—and I mean never—date the coach's daughter. But no one ever accused Van of being smart.

When the mouthy bad boy of the Appies catches the groom cheating on the coach's daughter, he can't just walk away, not on her wedding day.

Maybe his own relationships are casual, but he would never cheat and never treat wedding vows so carelessly. Not after he and his sisters watched their divorced parents cycle through marriage after marriage.

But forcing the groom to come clean sets off a chain reaction Van couldn't have expected. Ending with a black eye, an unexpected trip to Florida with one runaway bride, and a secret bargain struck with Coach. A bargain that may just jeopardize the very real and very inconvenient feelings he's developing for the very last person he ever should.

Runaway Bride and Prejudice is a closed-door hockey romance featuring the team's bad boy and a very good girl who also happens to be the coach's daughter. It's a sports romance with all the sizzle and swoon but no spice. This is part of the Appies Hockey Romance series of standalones, which is best enjoyed in order.

My favorite of the series!

Love this series so much! Listened to each book multiple times. However, there is something about the characters in this story that makes me smile. Forbidden love, longing, vulnerability, family, and unexpected events, peppered with comedy. Such a joy to read!

Loved it

With every book I read of these I love them more. I can’t choose a favorite. They did an amazing job with the narration and feel it fit the personality of the characters they portrayed

Sweet

It was a ride. It was good to see the characters roles change when the relationship needed a forever ending.

Fun easy read…

Fun, clean, closed door series in which every book is a stand-alone. Enjoyed the banter in this book.

Humorous and sweet… with caring family overtones

Feeling like the main character, it was fun to follow her journey from her wedding day to finding her footing on her own terms, with a few laughs along the way.
