Audio Review: So over you - Kate Meader

Three estranged sisters struggle to sustain their late father’s failing hockey franchise in Kate Meader’s sizzling Chicago Rebels series. In this second entry, middle sister Isobel is at a crossroads in her personal and professional lives. But both are about to get a significant boost with the addition of a domineering Russian powerhouse to the Rebels....

Isobel Chase knows hockey. She played NCAA, won Olympic silver, and made it thirty-seven minutes into the new National Women’s Hockey League before an injury sidelined her dreams. Those who can’t, coach, and a position as a skating consultant to her late father’s hockey franchise, the Chicago Rebels, seems like a perfect fit. Until she’s assigned her first job: the man who skated into her heart as a teen and relieved her of her pesky virginity. These days, left-winger Vadim Petrov is known as the Czar of Pleasure, a magnet for puck bunnies and the tabloids alike. But back then... let’s just say his inability to sink the puck left Isobel frustratingly scoreless.

Vadim has a first name that means “ruler,” and it doesn’t stop at his birth certificate. He dominates on the ice, the practice rink, and in the backseat of a limo. But a knee injury has produced a bad year, and bad years in the NHL don’t go unrewarded. His penance? To be traded to a troubled team where his personal coach is Isobel Chase, the woman who drove him wild years ago when they were hormonal teens. But apparently the feeling was not entirely mutual.

That Vadim might have failed to give Isobel the pleasure that was her right is intolerable, and he plans to make it up to her—one bone-melting orgasm at a time. After all, no player can perfect his game without a helluva lot of practice...

For review

My thoughts:
I wanted this book ever since finishing book 1, luckily that was not that far ago. There was a story there and I knew there would be trouble. 

Isabel and Vadim have a past. Then he becomes The Rebel's new player. Yay drama!

Isabel was nice and driven But yes with issues since she wanted to play too but a previous injury made her a coach instead. And she has dad issues, but then their dad was a piece of work.

Vadim was...I want to say player, but hey when he meets Isabel again it's like boom, no more. Women? What women? So we only hear that he was a player. He is rich, handsome, and with mommy issues. And I totally get why, poor boy.

They meet. They bicker and I wait until the explosion happens. Cos we all know all that tension is gonna erupt like the volcano it is.

I like this series. 
First, the couples are great. 
Second omg the things the author writes, it makes me lol. She is so witty. 
Third, I love listening to it. I enjoy it so much more this way. You have to hear the witty things so you can giggle.
Fourth, the side characters! I am dying for more! Dante's romance. And Violet and Bren who has been glaring for 2 books now.

Another good one. Drama. Romance. Passion and Ice. I look forward to more

Narrator Pippa Jayne
I really like how she narrates this series. Is a Russian accent hot..eh, nyet. Russians are not friends, but I will forgive that for this book ;)
So yes she does a great job and I really feel this is a series best listened too.
