The Sweet Talker: A Surprise Baby Hockey Romance

Written by Gina Azzi

Narrated by Whitney Daniels, Craig Hart and Tyler Darby

I’ve sworn off hockey players. Until the pregnancy test turns pink.

Noah Scotch is revered in Boston, a veritable god on the ice. I’m a nerdy, newly minted college professor who would rather color code my planner than hit the club scene. Noah shouldn’t look at me twice but when he does, I falter. 

Who can blame me? 

The sweet talker with the deliciously chiseled abs and sinful chocolate eyes is a force. On and off the ice.One hot and intense night with Noah has me second guessing my lack of a dating life. 

Friends with benefits? He offers, I dive in headfirst. Growing up in a hockey family, I know better than to get serious with a player. 

But the more time I spend getting to know Noah, the more my intention to keep things casual rings false. 

Now, I’ve got a hopeful heart and a baby on the way. 

I just need to tell Noah. But when I do, will I end up with everything I never knew I wanted? Or on my own?

Reviews for The Sweet Talker

[Summer dowdy · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

I couldn’t even finish the first chapter of the audio book. The narrator is far too masculine for the woman’s POV. I was struggling to distinguish that it was a woman’s POV.

Indy and Noah have a romance that spurs from a good night together. I expected the surprise pregnancy to be much sooner than right near the end, it felt like a cheat on the trope. The story was quick and easy to read, nothing out of the ordinary happened in terms of storyline.

I kept getting whiplash with the character's heightened moods and back-and-forth feelings. Indy was far too childish and Noah reacted too quickly, plus he was too alpha when the pregnancy came along. These two didn't seem to fit well and one minute they would say one thing and another they would be singing a different tune. They were definitely missing the mark.
