Story
Hockey right winger Tyler Jensen isn’t thrilled to get the news he’s been traded to the Bethesda Barracudas. The team may be red-hot in the rankings, but there’s someone there he’d rather not have to see every day. Defenseman Kevin Moore is living the dream playing for the Barracudas - until he hears that his old high school crush Tyler is joining the team. Ty was once everything Kev wanted, but their age difference got in the way. In Bethesda, Tyler doesn’t take long to notice that Kevin has grown up into precisely the kind of man he can’t resist.

Story
When it comes to hockey, I'm all about the game. I've worked for years to be one of the best in the league, and l've done it without splashing my orientation all over the tabloids. My hockey image is one I've carefully cultivated, and after one night with Ezra Palaszczuk, I risk it all. He's cocky, obnoxious, and has an ego bigger than Massachusetts. And okay, maybe he's the sexiest man I've ever known. We'll never get along. Not when we sleep together. Not even when my possessive streak awakens. That doesn't stop us from falling into bed together over and over again.

Sometimes love is where you least expect it, and sometimes it's right where you left it in this witty, slow burn-to-steamy friends-to-lovers MM romance. Widower, Max Hartwell, is barely keeping it together, being a single dad, managing his law firm, and navigating life's chaos. Life after loss is too difficult for surprises, which is why Max would be lost without his reliable best friend and neighbor, Jack.

Story
I spent college worrying about responsibilities and earning my teaching degree, so before graduation and moving to Atlanta with my best friend, Ross, I figure I deserve a little fun. I’ve never been with an older man, but the guy at the bar grabs my attention and doesn’t let go…for multiple rounds, all night long. The next day, when Ross introduces me to his dad, the last thing I expect is for him to be my hookup from the night before, in town from Atlanta for his son’s graduation. The best thing would be to pretend it never happened, which is easier said than done.

My new stepbrother is insufferable. You'd think it wouldn't matter since I won't be here for long, but this guy gets under my skin like no one ever has. All-American, baby-faced, blue-eyed band dork and star soccer player. Everything about him is the picture of perfection—unlike me. I don't think Do Gooder knows I'm starting senior year late. And he definitely doesn't know why. I've got secrets I'm taking with me to the grave.

Milo. Unusual. Quirky. Different. I’ve heard it all. I’ve accepted I’m not for everyone. When I find out I inherited a bookstore and apartment on a small East Coast island, I jump at the chance for a new life. Turns out I’ve also inherited a sexy, tattooed guy who not only rents the space next to my store but my apartment too. Gideon. I wasn’t looking for a roommate, but it’s not like I can stay at Milo’s place while he’s banished to a hotel. According to Milo, we’re bestie goals. And if he doesn’t wear pants at home, who am I to complain?

I've been in love with my best friend since forever. Okay, fine. Like, kindergarten. It started out platonic, obviously, but then became.... Nope. Still platonic. The problem is that Parker Ellis has been straight since forever. And that makes it difficult to convince him that the two of us are meant to be together. And now, there's no point. All is lost. He's gone and gotten engaged to his high-school sweetheart - which means I have to grin and bear it, while pretending to be the happy, supportive best man, while he prepares to commit his life to a woman.

Look, when I met the sexy, witty Brit on the streets of London last night, I had no idea who he was. He was just that hot guy I wanted to have a drink with, so I asked him out for my first evening in town. One thing almost led to another. After a midnight kiss, we made plans for a whole lot more the next day. But when I unlock the door to my rental in the morning, the English hottie is lounging on the couch like he lives here too. Great. For the next year, I’ll be sharing a tiny flat with the sexiest guy I’ve ever known.

"Look out for Zach, and don't hit on him." My brother's request sounds easy enough. Keep an eye out for his best friend on campus and keep my hands to myself. Easy. Even if Zach is a quintessential nerd, who I've always thought was cute, I don't have the time to think with my...stick. There's only one stick I should be focused on this year, and that's my hockey stick. My goal once I graduate is to get an NHL contract. The last thing I need is a distraction. On or off the ice. Only, keeping to the rules is harder than I thought it would be.

Payne. In search of: Room to rent. Must ignore the patheticness of a 40-year-old roommate. Preferably dirt cheap as funds are tight (nonexistent). There’s nothing sadder than moving back to my hometown newly divorced, homeless, and lost for what my next move is. When my little brother’s best friend offers me a place to stay in exchange for menial duties, I swallow my pride and jump at the offer. I need this. I also need Beau to wear a shirt. And ditch the gray sweatpants. And not leave his door ajar when he’s in compromising positions...

I’m a SEAL. Or rather, I was. Retired at the grand old age of 38, I’m at loose ends. My best friend wants me to join his security team. I’m not sure I’m bodyguard material, but he needs someone to protect his kid brother. How hard can spoiled brat duty be? Somehow, I missed the part where former child star Danny Love went from dorky TV darling to all grown up and disturbingly attractive. All the gossip about his wild ways fails to mention that he’s trying hard to clean up his act.

So, when one of my brothers hooks up with a dude from another frat house, it catches me off guard when I can’t stop thinking about them…together. There’s only one way for me to get this obsession out of my head, and that’s by jumping in with both feet and putting it into practice.

Both blue-collar workers in their 40s, they’ve experienced the tragic loss of their wives and meet through their monthly grief group. Their connection is immediate, their friendship solidifying over texts and barstool confessions, neither feeling quite so lonely in the other’s presence. When Marcus reveals to the group that he’s considering dating, it shakes Delaney to his core. He’s nowhere near ready, not when he feels on unstable ground with his teenage son and has vowed not to uproot his life again.

Publisher's Summary
What happens when the number-one college hockey star in the country falls in love - with a man?
Nick Johnson, a top prospect for a pro hockey team, has a secret: He’s gay. Tired of living in the closet for the sport he loves, he sees no way out.
Jacob Meyer’s string of bad boyfriends left him cynical about love. Instead, he focuses on his studies as a third-year law student. With a new job waiting for him, he’s eager to graduate and move on.
On a school-sponsored trip, Nick and Jacob meet in a most unexpected way. When Nick tells Jacob his secret, they decide to hang out, just as friends. But their attraction is too strong to ignore, and they soon begin dating.
Since Nick is a big man on campus, it doesn’t take long for people to notice his attachment to Jacob. All hell breaks loose when the relationship gets out. As the national media descends, university officials try to figure out how to solve their “problem”.
Their efforts divide Nick’s team, inflame fans, and put Nick and Jacob’s futures in jeopardy. Will the men be able to survive a plot to destroy them without derailing both their careers?
Nice Catching You is an out-for-you romance featuring a lot of love, exciting hockey, and a beautiful holiday. There’s also plenty of steam and a very happy ending.

Opposites attract and work together for a HEA
Nick J Russo brings great life to these characters, and the audio version enhances an already great story. Nick and Jacob go through a lot to be together, but they never waver, and the narrator really captures all of the emotions. This is one of my favorite series, and I'm excited that the same narrator will be bringing voice to the rest of the series. Can't recommend enough... listen for yourself.

Nice Catching You
4.5 Maple Leaf Review
Nice Catching You (Nice Catching You 1) by Ryan Taylor & Joshua Harwood
Narrated by Nick J. Russo
"𝘕𝘰 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘭𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘺 𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦."
⏤
An emotional journey about acceptance, growth, and heartwarming love.
On the way home from a school trip, Nick catches Jacob when he falls out of his seat when the bus skids off the road. Being forced to stay at a hotel overnight, Nick and Jacob share a room and being their friendship. The more time they spend together, the more Nick is ready to finally come out about his sexuality. Jacob is worried about what will happen and tries to get Nick to reconsider but Nick is determined to be true to himself so he can be the person he feels Jacob deserves.
I love Nick and Jacob. From their meet-cute on, they continued to win me over. The banter between the friendly teammates had a constant smile on my face and even had me laughing out loud at times. There were some characters that I did not particularly like, for obvious reasons, but I was glad to see everyone else not back down from their negativity.
These authors are still relatively new to me, as this is only my second book by them, but I am looking forward to reading more of their books.
Nick J. Russo did an amazing job of narrating that I felt like I was listening to a duet narration instead of a single narrator.
Nice Catching You is an mm, college, sports (hockey), jock/nerd, out-for-you romance told in the dual first-person point of view.

Enjoyable, Heartfelt, and Unforgettable
I fell in love with this book when it came out in 2020. Nick and Jacob are the kind of characters that don't just enter your life for the duration of the time it takes to read their story; they stay with you long after the story ends. Just thinking about their meet-cute or Jacob’s first hockey game has me grinning. I'm talking GOOFY grinning.
While this story will make you laugh and leave you swooning, it also has moments that will have you thinking and rooting for justice for our beloved duo. Don't get me wrong, this is a fun, feel-good romance, but it's more than that. We get to see second hand what happens when a gay man comes out in a sport that's not exactky gay-friendly yet. Even though it hasn't happened in real life (yet—hopefully soon) it's nice to see it happen in a world we choose to be a part of.
This book is the first book these authors wrote that centers around hockey, but it's quite evident their live for hockey didn't just begin. They have a fantastic way of writing the hockey scenes in a way any level can read it. In fact, I became a hockey fan AFTER reading two of their hockey books. Their love for hockey, and their eady way of explaining it, lured me in and now I'm hooked—on tv and in book. I can tell you I'm not the only person these authors have passed on their enjoyment for the sport to. Just come spend some time with us in their Facebook group, Ryan & Josh’s Room, and you'll see.
Nick J. Russo did an amazing job bringing this story to life. He has such a broad range of voices and is pleasant to listen to. None if the scenes are over the top with his narration. It's almost as if he BECOMES these characters and their emotions. He’s just such a great narrator.
I absolutely recommend this book, these authors and this narrator.

A captivating story and a great narration
I have already read some books by the authors Ryan Taylor and Joshua Harwood and was therefore very excited about this audio book, which I did not know as a book yet.
I love the authors' writing style because they write heartwarming, engaging, captivating and emotional.
Nick is the captain of the hockey team who has not come out yet. He's likeable and well-liked by his teammates. And he is the opposite of Jacob, a proud law student who is open about his sexuality.
The two first meet on a bus when it runs into trouble. Nick's protective instinct is immediately there and Jacob is intrigued by Nick as well. You could feel the sizzle between the two, who fall in love quickly, but the chemistry is palpable. I love it when a book is authentically told and I can connect with the characters.
Another plus was Jacob, who knows nothing about hockey. I found that very refreshing and it was fun to follow Jacob in the stands at his first hockey game.
Unfortunately, life isn't always easy and after Nick stands by his relationship with Jacob, the problems begin. Who will stand by him? Where do things go from here?
I enjoyed the story immensely. For one thing, there's the emotional and heartwarming relationship between the two, which is pretty hot at times. Also, Nice Catching You features great supporting characters - I love most of Nick's teammates and the way they relate to their captain.
It also deals with serious issues and difficult situations and this was told in an exciting way.
If you want to read a fascinating story about sports, friendship, team spirit, love and coming out, but also homophobia and people who love to make life difficult for others, you should definitely pick this one up.
Nick J. Russo is a talented storyteller who nailed the characters. I love how he brought the story to life. He is very good at portraying the emotions of the protagonists and it was a great pleasure to listen to his pleasant voice with all the different pitches, different voices and always a pleasant pace of narration. The almost 9 hours passed very quickly.
Highly recommended!

Really good!
4.5 Stars!!!
This was my first book by Ryan Taylor & Joshua Harwood, but I can assure you it won't be the last. I found their writing style refreshing and engaging and I really connected with the characters, which is always a plus.
Nick is a closeted hockey player, but make no mistake, he's not the kind of man who would hide his feelings when he finds the right man, which is something that I adored about him and made him my favorite of the two. Jacob is out and proud, and has zero clue as to what hockey is, which I could relate to, LOL. On paper, they should be polar opposites, and yet, they are just perfect for one another, complementing each other in the best of ways. Their chemistry was palpable and while they fall in love fairly quickly, it works well for them.
I also loved Blake, Kelly, Scotty, and most of their teammates, and I adored how they all backed their captain when he needed them. On the other hand, I absolutely hated Banks and Higgins, and unfortunately, could never warm up to Kayla, Jacob's BFF, who made me angry more than a few times.
The audiobook was captivating! Nick J. Russo is amazing and shines in books with younger (college-aged) characters and especially with a big cast of characters. He definitely did justice to Nick and Jacob and their story and made it even better for me.
Overall, I really enjoyed Nice Catching You, it was riveting and I really liked the hockey action, even if this Guatemalan girl hasn't seen a game in her life, hahaha. I loved Nick and Jacob and most of the supporting cast and I loved that the bad guys got their comeuppance in such an epic way! Definitely an audiobook I have no trouble recommending!

Great audio performance of a good story.
I enjoyed this book when I read it with my eyes but Nick J. Russo’s performance elevated it even higher.
I rarely have such strong emotional responses when listening to a book that I’ve already read but this book just about did me in. It’s a great coming out story and you don’t need to know anything about hockey to enjoy it.

This one melts the ice
When I learned that this amazing mm romance by one of my favorite authors would be released as an audiobook I could not wait to find out who would narrate it to bring it to an even higher level. I was pleasantly surprised when Nick J. Russo was the one. I can tell you he did an amazing job and the 8 hours+ went by before I knew it. I recommend it if you like a good story about hockey, love, friendship and hot scenes. The MC's Nick and Jacob find their hea.

Sweet, optimistic, low-angst.
The story was really sweet. The characters were great. I LOVED the team so much. And the last third of the book in particular was fantastic! There's a real youthful, young-love feel to this story, and the optimism matches that well, making the whole story really... sweet. I don't read many sweet books, but I enjoyed this one.
Oh, and the Excalibur thing was hilarious!
As for Nick's performance, it was great. A little over-dramatized at times, but still wonderful. It was really easy to tell the characters apart, and easy to discern between narration and dialogue (which is something very, very few narrators can pull off). Great job.
(On a personal note: I love that this book was written by a married couple!)

Nice catching you Jacob!
When Nick Johnson and Jacob Meyer met that was the end of their single life , neither knew what life had in store for them .
The book is extremely well written , it’s easy to read , the story flows , as I mentioned, very well written.
A story about truth, believing in yourself and in the values you highly hold .
The audiobook is stunning, the journey that Ryan Taylor and Josh Harwood took the reader / listener on in quite amazing.
I cannot recommend this audiobook enough, with talented narration by Nick J Russo where can one go wrong.
Superb …..

Absolutely brilliant❤️
A gay law student and a top UNY hockey player who is in the closet fall in love. The story deals with coming out in the world of professional sport. A beautiful love story with a powerful message Nice Catching You was very well written and handled with sensitivity and care
I read this book last year and absolutely loved it. Now brilliantly narrated by Nick J Russo has elevated it to another level
Highly recommended❤️
