   First Chapter: Boyfriend by Sarina Bowen, performed by Emma Wilder and Jason Clarke

   The dreamiest player on the Moo U hockey team hangs a flyer on the bulletin board, and I am spellbound: Rent a boyfriend for the holiday. For $25, I will be your Thanksgiving date. I will talk hockey with your dad. I will bring your mother flowers. I will be polite, and wear a nicely ironed shirt.... Now everyone knows it’s a bad idea to introduce your long-time crush to your messed-up family. But I really do need a date for Thanksgiving, even if I’m not willing to say why. So I tear his phone number off of that flyer...and accidentally entangle our star defenseman in a ruse that neither of us can easily unwind. Because Weston's family is even nuttier than mine. He needs a date, too, for the most uncomfortable holiday engagement party ever thrown. There will be hors d'oeuvre. There will be faked PDA. And there will be pro-level awkwardness… https://geni.us/Audible-Boyfriend Subscribe to First Chapters from Sarina Bowen (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s) on Soundwise (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s)

   The women's league is in the house! And Brooklyn will never be the same again for Anton Bayer and the team… This is my last chance to ditch my playboy reputation and finally fulfill my potential. So I’ve made three rules for our biggest season yet: no boozing, no women, and no scandals. Especially that last thing. So who do I befriend on the very first day back at the rink? An amazing female hockey player. I want Sylvie in a way that’s more than just friendly. I crave her. But I have a championship to win, and so does she. Then she gets her heart broken by my teammate, and I make the foolish mistake of comforting her in the best way I know how. Our night together sets off a string of sins. Nobody can know about our affair, especially my overprotective teammate. I can’t let anyone see into my greedy little heart. Not even her. The things I want from her, and the things we’ve already done? If anyone knew, there’d be bombshells. Contains: a defenseman with dreamy blue eyes, a female goalie with bad ideas, a major battle of the sexes and a swimming pool scene...

   First Chapter: Loverboy by Sarina Bowen, performed by Joe Arden

   Loverboy, performed by Joe Arden and Vanessa Edwin, with a special appearance by Emma Wilder. Secrets, desires, and exquisite pie. It’s all in a day’s work at The Company. Growing up, I was the rough guy from the wrong neighborhood who couldn’t catch a break. Posy was the pampered girl I tried to impress. But all she gave me was a single kiss before I had to skip town. Now I’m back, and the tables are turned. Posy runs a struggling pie shop. I’m the VP of a secretive billion-dollar security company. Not that I can tell her. There’s a murderer on the loose in New York, and he seems to spend a lot of time at Posy’s shop. It’s my job to identify him before he can harm a hair on her pretty head. Going undercover as Posy’s new barista wasn’t my idea. I don’t even drink coffee. But now I have to call her “boss,” and do everything the curvy perfectionist asks of me. I’d forgotten how much we infuriate each other, and that she somehow fills me with both irritation and desire in the same breath. There’s nobody more skilled at stealth ops than me. I can bring this killer down. Right after I take a cold shower. And just as soon as I figure out how to make a skinny peppermint latte with milk poured in the shape of a kitten... 🗝️ Audible https://geni.us/LoverboyAudible 🗝️ Amazon https://geni.us/Amazon-LB 🗝️ Apple https://geni.us/Apple-LB 🗝️ Kobo https://geni.us/Kobo-Lb 🗝️ Nook https://geni.us/Nook-LB Subscribe to First Chapters from Sarina Bowen (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s) on Soundwise (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s)

Once upon a time, he gave me a summer of friendship, followed by one perfect night. We shared a lot during our short time together. But he skipped a few crucial details.

Five years later, his tour bus pulls up in Nest Lake, Maine. My little world is about to be shattered by loud music and the pounding of my own foolish heart. 🎵Audible https://geni.us/Audible-LandL (https://geni.us/Audible-LandL) 🎵Paperback https://geni.us/Paperback-LandL (https://geni.us/Paperback-LandL) 🎵Amazon https://geni.us/Amazon-LandL (https://geni.us/Amazon-LandL) 🎵Apple https://geni.us/apple-LandL (https://geni.us/apple-LandL) 🎵Kobo https://geni.us/kobo-LandL (https://geni.us/kobo-LandL) 🎵Nook https://geni.us/Nook-LandL (https://geni.us/Nook-LandL) Subscribe to First Chapters from Sarina Bowen (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s) on Soundwise (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s)

    First Chapter: Sure Shot

    Narrated by Jacob Morgan and Emma Wilder A new stand-alone hockey romance from USA Today bestseller Sarina Bowen. On the eve of her thirtieth birthday, sports agent Bess Beringer is ready to make some changes. Armed with a five-year plan—indexed and color coded—she’ll tackle her personal life with the same zeal that she brings to her successful agency. A big, tall, ripped hunk of hockey player who’s just been traded to the Brooklyn Bruisers is not a part of that plan. Mark “Tank” Tankiewicz has a lot of baggage. He’s a ride-or-die loner with a bad reputation. He’s on the rebound. He’s also the sexiest thing on two legs, and for some crazy reason it’s Bess that he wants. She knows better. But then she falls stupid in love with him anyway. And for a while it seems like maybe he’ll do the same. Until she asks him for the one thing he can never give her… Audible https://geni.us/SureShotAUDIBLE (https://geni.us/SureShotAUDIBLE) Amazon https://geni.us/SureShotAmazon (https://geni.us/SureShotAmazon) Apple https://geni.us/SureShotApple (https://geni.us/SureShotApple) Kobo https://geni.us/SureShotKobo (https://geni.us/SureShotKobo) Google https://geni.us/SureShotGoogle (https://geni.us/SureShotGoogle) Nook https://geni.us/SureShotNook (https://geni.us/SureShotNook) Paperback https://geni.us/SureShotPaperback (https://geni.us/SureShotPaperback) Subscribe to First Chapters from Sarina Bowen (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s) on Soundwise (https://mysoundwise.com/soundcasts/1598712698396s)

    Narrated by Lee Samuels and Erin Mallon An emotional friends to lovers romance full of risky secrets and late-night lessons in seduction. Dylan is my best friend, and the only person in my life who understands me. He doesn’t mind my social awkwardness or my weird history. The only glitch? He doesn’t know that I’ve been hopelessly, desperately in love with him since the first day we picked apples together in his family’s orchard. But I know better than to confess. Now that I’ve joined him at college, I’m seeing a new side of him. This Dylan drinks and has a lot of sex. None of it with me. Until the moment I foolishly ask him to tutor me in more than algebra…and he actually says yes. One crazy night sets our friendship on fire. But now my heart lies in ashes, and nothing will ever be the same again. Heartland is a standalone college romance set in the True North world.

    Narrated by Jason Clarke & Lucy Rivers Only in my family could a professional hockey player earning seven million dollars a year be considered a slacker. I’m at the height of my athletic career. Yet my arrogant brother is always trying to recruit me into the family business: a global security company so secretive that I don’t even know its name. Pass, thanks. I don’t need a summer job. But the jerk ambushes me with a damsel in distress. That damsel is Alex, the competitive, sassy girl I knew when we were kids. Now she’s a drop-dead gorgeous woman in deep trouble. So guess who’s on a flight to Hawaii? It’s going to be a long week in paradise. My job is keeping Alex safe, while her job is torturing me with her tiny bikinis. Or maybe we’re torturing each other. It’s all snark and flirting until the threat against Alex gets serious. And this jock must become her major league protector. Moonlighter is a stand-alone novel. No cliffhangers, no prior experience necessary. Contains: hackers, hockey players, and a hotel room with only one bed.

    First Chapter: Superfan by Sarina Bowen

    Sometimes lady luck shakes your hand, and sometimes she smacks your face. Sometimes she does both on the same day. Three years ago I met the most amazing woman. We were both down on our luck. Then I got that call—the one that tells you to get your buns on a plane to go meet your destiny. But the girl was left behind. I didn’t have her phone number, and she didn’t know my real name. While I became a professional hockey player, she became a superstar, with platinum records and legions of fans. And a slick, music producer boyfriend who treated her badly. But fate wasn’t done with us yet. When Delilah turns up at a hockey game, I can’t resist making contact. The internet swoons when I ask her out on a date. She might not remember me. But her jerkface ex does. He’ll do anything to keep us apart. Good thing athletes never give up. This time I’m playing for keeps.

    First Chapter: Overnight Sensation

    Narrated by Jason Clarke & Savannah Peachwood Everyone knows the girl is off limits. But it's so good to be bad. There’s this girl... Heidi and I have been trading hungry looks all year, and everything she does makes me smile. But I don't do girlfriends, and I certainly can't get involved with the league commissioner's daughter. I need shots on goal, not a hookup and a widely misunderstood paparazzi photo. Can I resist her, though? The way she teases me should be a game penalty for interference with my libido. There’s this guy… Jason wants me, but he won’t admit it. That man looks at me the way a hockey player eyes the lunch buffet after practice—and I love it. But when victory is finally within my grasp, I blow it and humiliate myself. Even then I can’t even avoid him—as the team intern, I’m in constant view of his hard body and cocky smile. I need another chance. Jason Castro is about to learn the true meaning of an overnight sensation.

    First Chapter: The Accidentals

    Narrated by Kate Rudd Never ask a question unless you’re sure you want the truth. I’ve been listening to my father sing for my whole life. I carry him in my pocket on my mp3 player. It’s just that we’ve never met face to face. My mother would never tell me how I came to be, or why my rock star father and I have never met. I thought it was her only secret. I was wrong. When she dies, he finally appears. Suddenly I have a first class ticket into my father’s exclusive world. A world I don’t want any part of – not at this cost. Only three things keep me going: my a cappella singing group, a swoony blue-eyed boy named Jake, and the burning questions in my soul. There’s a secret shame that comes from being an unwanted child. It drags me down, and puts distance between me and the boy I love. My father is the only one alive who knows my history. I need the truth, even if it scares me.
