Sunny Disposition

Mendell Hawks, Book 1

By: Deanna Grey

Narrated by: Charlie L. Wood, John William Maddux

Naomi: I can't understand why—out of the four hockey players I'm sharing a house with this semester—Finn Howard's the one who catches my eye. The guy never smiles. He doesn't say much and disapproves plenty.

But, something about him feels familiar. Something about him feels safe.

I'm not falling for Finn, I'm just curious. Could I make him smile? It wouldn't hurt to try. I love a good challenge. And who knows, maybe it'll distract me from pining over a guy I meet online.

Finn: I don't get nervous unless I'm on the ice. So why does my chest feel tight whenever Naomi Lewis looks in my direction? She's witty, kind, and happy. How is someone that happy all the time?

If her sunny disposition isn't enough to distract me, the fact that her voice sounds exactly like the streamer I anonymously moderate for will.

If Naomi is her, she's in for a huge disappointment. I'm not the guy she thinks I am . . . not anymore, at least. And for that reason alone, I should stay away from her. I should stop trying to get closer. I should stop wanting her because she fell for someone else. Someone I will never be again.

Contains mature themes.

Phew chile and awww

I feel some kinda way listening to a hockey romance since my kids play but all I had to do is picture Sidney Crosby as Finn and I was hooked. The narration was perfect.

Cute story and even cuter couple!!

This story was so sickly sweet and cute. Also touched on serious topics of mental health and trauma. Loved both narrators, they were great! I knew this had a mature rating but the moments when they were using profane words for private parts kept throwing me off. It was hilarious tho not gonna lie. Thoroughly enjoyed almost 9hrs of this !

Swooning …HARD.

This was a great reprieve from my usual dark romance. It was light, heart felt, swoon worthy and the spice did not disappoint. Worth the credit <3

Cutest Romance

This is one of the cutest romances I've read in a while. I loved Naomi's character and Finn loved her down bad.

I love it

Great storyline the characters were very well written. I can't wait for them to release book 2 of the series. Great love story, especially between two people who I need each other.
