For me, a good enemies-to-lovers romance has layers of dislike wrapped in scintillating sex that leads to the inevitable “maybe there’s more to this MC than I thought.” Avon Gale and Piper Vaughn’s Goalie Interference brought all the goods.Emmitt is a new member of the Venom, his first NHL team. The problem? He’s working in tandem as goalie, when he wants to be starter. Enter Ryu, the team’s current goalie who assumed he had the starting position in the bag. Only he’s in the running against the cocky rookie Emmitt, and Ryu isn’t feeling it…At first. But the challenge Emmitt brings as well as his bratty mouth has Ryu itching to give Emmitt another way to stay busy.The dynamic between these two was perfect for a rivalry. They’re both gunning for the same spot, but they also have a lot in common, both vying for their parents’ attention and approval, only in different ways. Ryu’s parents are happy for his career, but they want the best, and not being starter for his NHL team means he isn’t the best.Emmitt has done a lot to get accolades and praise from his father, but hockey isn’t football and frustration has him more determined than ever to get the starting spot. They both have an intensity to them, only Emmitt has the goofball spot down, while Ryu brings the seriousness and sobriety to the pair. They were fun to watch play off the other–both on and off the ice.I also love the cultural rep here. Ryu is Japanese American and Emmitt is black, and I really appreciated how the au.
This is one of those books that I don’t think would have worked if there was only one POV. Especially since Ryu and Emmitt had very strong feelings about each other in the beginning – and not the romantic kind. It would have been hard to sympathize with either character if you only saw things from one of them.In order to chose a starter for the Venom, their coaches pitted them against each other. Ryu felt cheated out of a position he thought he had worked hard to earn. Emmitt wanted to prove himself to his new team and earning a starting position would do that for him. A friendship between these two rivals seemed impossible, but a romance… regardless of their initial feelings toward each other, the physical attraction couldn’t be ignored.Ryu came from a family of over achievers. They weren’t opposed to anything that Ryu decided to do with his life as long as he did his best – and was the best at what he did. They were kind of passive in their disapproval when they directed it toward him, but even if others didn’t notice, it was always clear to him. Emmitt had a mom who was super supportive and a dad who wasn’t. His dad never forgave him for choosing hockey over following his footsteps in football. They both felt like at times that they didn’t quite measure up.One quick hook-up wasn’t enough, but they also had to be careful. They were still part of a world that wasn’t easy to “come-out†in. Regardless, once they got a taste of how things could be, they both realized that they.
3.5-4 starsThis is the second in the series, but read fine as a standalone. I haven’t read the first book, and didn’t feel like anything was missing.Enemies to lovers, competition, athletes, diversity, and many more of my favorite things. This pushed a lot of my buttons, and over all I loved it. The tension was delicious, the characters compelling, and the story fun.There was a really amazing story here, it just missed in the execution though. I felt like a lot of the emotional component was told to us, instead of being able to see and feel it.I wasn’t one hundred percent sold on the ending either. It felt…incomplete, or maybe just not satisfying enough for me. Not that the boys needed to come out, but more that there were a lot of questions about the future were left unanswered for me.I loved the book as a whole, and Ryu might be one of my favorite characters of any I’ve read this year.I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader’s copy.
Oh, it’s been too long since I’ve read an Avon Gale–Piper Vaughn book. They’re the gold standard of m/m hockey romance for me, and Goalie Interference didn’t disappoint. I loved the enemies-to-lovers (while still remaining rivals) progression, and the secondary characters (with bonus updates on past protagonists) sparkled. My only complaint is that after a delicious buildup, the last… 20%? felt rushed to me. I’d have been delighted with another several chapters with a lot more hockey and a lot more relationship-building. That said, what *was* on the page was excellent, and I’m looking forward to finding time to go back and reread what came before.My thanks to A Novel Take PR for an advance copy of this book.
Book 2 from a series which can read as a stand-alone.The main characters from book 1 are also in this story but more as secondary among others.Emmitt is the new goalie and it seems Ryu, who is already the goalie, got competition.Ryu got a strong aversion against Emmit. There is a lot of tension and the best way to get rid of that is to blow off the steam occasionally, with the other.When occasionally turns into regularly and hate turns into something else they even work out as dual goalies. Until their coach put a halt and tells them only one will play and the other occasional. Emmitt wants to be the one and no way they can have any sort of relationship.“We’re not talking, you’re monologuing,â€I really enjoyed this one. Is was about more than only the two men. There are family matters, team members, especially Morley, who I loved. Maybe he will have the next book?Ryu in the closet felt a bit unnecessary, it didn’t have a real dealing part in this story.For me, I would have loved a more defined end.Is was an entertaining story, nicely captivating written. Overall a good addition to the series.
With both players having worked hard to get where they are, they both were not going to give up easily. Pitted against each another, naturally hatred will brew. But they turn this hate into passion and eventually love.This plot had some good aspects and some not so good. For me there were some points in it which were unnecessary, like Ryu needing to be in the closet.There is some emotion, drama and a climatic moment. I wanted just a little bit more from the ending.The supporting characters were great and I’m looking forward to Morley getting a story.3.5 stars for me. I voluntarily received an arc of this book.
I enjoyed Ryu ‘s and Emmit’s story, including continuing to see Tris and Seb. I liked that the enemies part of enemies-to-lovers was because of their positions and ultimately not about who they each were or past actions. It made developing a working relationship connected to developing a personal relationship, and then naturally a challenge to their relationship.It did feel more like an HFN than an HEA so I hope we’ll see more of them in the next book.I was given an ARC.
Nette solide Story mit sympathischen Charakteren . Hat immens viel Spaß gemacht es zu lesen.Ich freue mich auf den nächsten Teil.
This was a damned fun read!!!Thank you authors for providing us with two MCs of color! Diversity is sorely lacking in this romance sub genre and I heartily applaud the inclusion of people of color! ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘I’m a huge fan of sports romances. My favorite of all is HOCKEY! Avon Gale is one of my favorite hockey MM romance writers and I gobble up everything she writes. This book was no different. I couldn’t finish it fast enough!!!After reading the first one in the series, I was hoping that this follow up would give me more. More heat, more likeable characters, more hockey. I got all of that!!Two goalies. One competition for the starting job. One goalie is a loud, out and proud, bisexual cockier than anything sizzling hot black man. He’s fresh up from the minors starting his rookie year in the NHL. The other goalie is an introverted, closeted, cool and collected J-pop stylin’ Japanese American hottie.They hate each other from the get go. So of course they decide that the best way to blow off steam from the stress of competing for the top goalie spot is to jump into bed—no strings attached. What a joy it is to see Ryu boss Emmitt around in bed. Our quiet goalie is all sorts of controlling!🔥🔥🔥Well, the sex gets hot, heavy and messy, and tangles up the guys in feelings. Feelings they try to ignore. When that doesn’t work, they try to hide them from each other, because they are too competitive to give in first and admit these feelings.Things happen. Hockey things and feeling a explode an.
I’m a sucker for a hockey romance book, and this was spot on for me. I enjoy Piper and Avon’s writing styles separately, but together they do an awesome job. I loved the pacing, the story, and the characters. I really enjoyed this one.<I> I am voluntarily reviewing an ARC provided by LesCourt Author Services </I>
