The Game Changer

By: Lana Ferguson

Narrated by: Zachary Webber, Samantha Summers

An instant USA Today bestseller

A hockey player and a baker shoot their shot in this steamy new romance by Lana Ferguson, USA Today bestselling author of The Nanny.

When a very public breakup becomes a PR nightmare for Ian Chase's team, he hopes to focus on his game, but that suddenly seem less likely than a hat trick. With his career and the team’s image in jeopardy, Ian is surprised to find a solution through none other than Delilah Baker, his best friend and teammate's little sister…who isn’t so little anymore.

Delilah Baker is known as “the darling of baking” on her local cable show, and being in the public eye is her bread and butter. But with her numbers dwindling and her producers turning up the heat, Delilah offers up the half-baked idea to collaborate with her brother’s team to entice the hockey fans of Boston to tune in to her show. Delilah thinks it will be a piece of cake—until the team sends Ian Chase, her brother’s best friend and the object of a decade-long crush that she’s never quite gotten over.

Delilah's and Ian’s teams think it’s a true win-win situation—gaining higher numbers for Delilah’s show and casting Ian in a more positive light. And viewers are eating them up like a cupcake, sparking the idea to play up their relationship for the goal of good press. With more than just their careers on thin ice, the line between what’s real and what’s for show begins to blur, but one thing’s for certain: This PR stunt will either be a total game changer—or leave them both totally pucked.

Critic reviews

"It is no secret that I have and will always devour anything Lana Ferguson writes. The Game Changer is her first dab at sports romance, and boy, I was immediately obsessed. This book has Ferguson’s addictive brand of delicious spice and story-telling, plus one of the tropes I’ll never get tired of reading: brother’s best friend. Besides, we get to follow a giant ginger on skates around the ice and a baker who calls him cupcake. It doesn’t get better than this."—Elena Armas, New York Times bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception

What a surprise !

I totally wasn’t expecting to love this as much as I did. Great plot, amazing banter, spice was top tier and even the side characters were great! I wish there was a book 2! I would love to read Jacks story !

Great Spicy Romance

I truly enjoyed this spicy hockey romance. Judging by the cover and the fact Zachary Webber used his real name and not Jacob Morgan, which is usually used for spicier books, I was afraid this may end up being a closed door book. It is definitely not, thank goodness.
Little spoiler, the fmc gets to fulfill some of her young girl fantasies with her crush from way back. Fun book!

Another hit from Lana Ferguson!

Witty banter, hockey, friends to lovers, and Zachary Webber as a narrator...........I mean what else could you ask for in a book? This was a great book. The characters were fantastic. No third act break up - which is always a plus. It was just so well written and left me wanting more from the author.

It was good, similar to her books out ere, but good.

Overall, the story is ok. It’s not that predictable
and has a good pace. The MMC is good.

Brother's Best Friend Hockey Romance

You know how some books just fit your mood perfectly and make you smile? This is one of those for me.

At a glance:
- Pro hockey player + baking show host
- Giant ginger + petite, curvy FMC
- Older brother's best friend
- Childhood crush (longtime pining)
- Fake dating
- Tattoos
- Tenderness and caring
- Family issues
- That combustible chemistry I've come to expect from Lana Ferguson
+ She calls him "Cupcake".

I highly recommend listening to this one on audio for the dual narration by Zachary Webber and Samantha Summers. 🔥 Their narration captures these characters perfectly.
