Zamboni of Love

By: Cassidy Berg

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

From the bestselling author of Christmas in Snow Falls comes a heartwarming read that's perfect for fans of Jenny Hale, Sheila Roberts, Debbie Macomber, and Jill Shalvis.

In the charming town of Benson Ridge, Amanda Perkins has learned the hard way that hockey players and happily-ever-afters don't mix. But when disgraced NHL star Jack "The Hammer" Hamilton skates into her life—and the struggling ice rink she manages—Amanda's carefully guarded heart faces off against an unexpected opponent.

Jack's court-mandated community service seems like a penalty box for his career, until coaching a ragtag youth hockey team and mastering the Zamboni start to melt his icy exterior. As Jack and Amanda cautiously circle each other, they must confront their deepest fears: Can Amanda trust another player with her heart? And will Jack choose the roar of the crowds or the quiet comfort of small-town life?

With the hometown rink on thin ice and time running out on Jack's stay, they'll need more than a miracle on ice to keep their dreams—and the rink—from melting away.

Jack staying for Amanda and the kids

I prefer not to listen to VV however, I liked the story line. Jack being a jerk at first, then more relaxed with the kids. Amanda's previous hurt finally ebbing allowing Jack into her like. I especially loved Tommy's character.

Cute romance

Overall, I enjoyed this. It was a cute short story and remind me a lot of ice princess with a twist.

It uses AI!

It used AI for narrator. Was NOT a fan! Why are we using AI instead of real life narrators!?

it's a good thing this book is free because it is only an outline.

it's a good thing this book is free because it's only an outline. A little more time is needed.

Welllllll...

The story has good bones. I personally see tons of red flags with this guy, especially with the beginning treatment of the children, then it happened again. ehhhh. Yes, this is a fluff story with your typical build up and let's downs, but I think it wasn't for me.
I don't care that it was virtual voice, I got to listen while I was cleaning.
