The Proposal Play
by Lauren Blakely
4.5 stars
This is the third book in the Love and Hockey series featuring hockey star, Asher Callahan, and his best friend, Maeve Hartley. Maeve is also his teammate Beckett’s sister.
To save Asher from a woman wanting to use him, Maeve bets on a date with him at a hockey charity event…and wins a trip with him to Las Vegas.
Two years earlier Asher and Maeve made a marriage pact—that if she needed a husband, he would step up to be it. Asher is Mr. Fix It and he wants to give Maeve an escape from her career frustrations, so he suggests that as their next Big Adventure that they get married.
Kinda weird and extreme reason to get married, but whatever makes the story work. They are best friends who are both in love with the other (and they both didn’t realize it.)
It’s a mostly low angst story. There is a mental health representation with Asher having some obsessive fix it behavior. They both love each other, but are afraid to lose their friendship if it didn’t work out.
I listened to the ALC along with reading the ARC. It is narrated in DUET format with Robert Hatchet and Vanessa Edwin. So good! Their performances made the story so much more enjoyable.
Thank you to the author for an advanced readers copy and an advanced listener copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
