My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Taming Beckett (The Playmakers Series Hockey Romances Book 1) by G.K. Brady’s great romance series.

Beckett Miller’s hedonistic lifestyle has just been cooled. Following a high-profile fall from grace due to a drug scandal, the elderly pro hockey superstar is without a team, has been withdrawn from endorsements, and is absolutely bankrupt. Desperate to sell his house, the league’s bad boy is forced to work with a real estate agent with a dazzling smile and with whom he’d just made a tremendous fool of himself. Paige Anderson’s success in sales has not translated into relationships. Paige is going out all the stops to keep her marriage together as her husband grows more distant, and the last thing she wants is a scandal-plagued playboy athlete as a client. However, the hefty commission she’ll receive from the sale appears to be worthwhile.

Every page was exciting and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. It is a unique sports romance series. The story really brings excitement into your life. I couldn’t put the book down

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read my fair share of sports romance books, but this one takes the cake! I happened to see the cover and grabbed a copy but wasn’t sure what I was getting into with this author as they are new to me. I’m so glad I took the chance because I was absolutely addicted to the story. Beckett starts off not so loveable and makes you wonder why he’s making these choices. Paige is oh-so-relatable, and I found myself invested in both of them rather quickly. The flow of the story is incredible, and it had me racing to the end of each page to figure out what was going to happen next. I highly recommend this book even if you aren’t a huge fan of sports romances because I think this one will catch you pleasantly off guard.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wow just wow!! What an amazing start to what I just know will be a fantastic series. It truly is so very much more than I expected from a contemporary sports romance. Beckett and Paige are wonderful characters who go through so much, especially Beckett, but with the hard times comes a lot of personal growth. All the trials and tribulations are so well written by this talented author that you will be hooked from start to finish just like I was. When I first started reading this book I had definite perceived ideas of who these characters were going to be but oh boy was I so wrong because they were so so much more than I could ever have imagined.

This is the first book in The Playmakers Series Hockey Romance. The author is new to me and I really enjoyed reading the book. Beckett and Paige met while they were in college. Beckett graduated and moved right into being a NHL hockey player. Soon he began making bad decisions. As the years go by, he’s finding that life isn’t turning out the way he expected. After graduating from college, Paige has started up her own company working on flipping houses. When Beckett and Paige meet unexpectedly, he doesn’t exactly remember her. That’s just fine with Paige but soon things seem to change.
The author did a wonderful job world building and character development.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Taming Beckett was an enjoyable romance with complicated and complex characters. If this book is any indication, then I predict this is going to be a great series!

The book took off right from the very first pages. Beckett is a talented and skilled hockey player, but he doesn’t seem to have control off of the ice. Now, he finds himself in a lot of trouble, something that could put an end to his successful career. Paige is successful as well, but like Beckett, not so much in her personal life. Although her problems aren’t created by her but by her husband who has no idea how lucky he is to be married to her. She and Beckett met years ago in college, and she was the only girl who didn’t fall for him. She wasn’t much of a fan of his then, and when they meet again, she still isn’t a fan. However, as they find themselves spending more time together when she becomes his realtor, they begin to form a friendship with the promise of so much more if they can overcome the obstacles standing in their way.

Both Beckett and Paige are complicated characters. The author, G.K. Brady, did a fantastic job of revealing their complexities with each chapter. I wasn’t quite sure how I would feel about Beckett when I read the first chapter. I was not his biggest fan, to say the least. On the other hand, I was a big fan of Paige. I felt like she deserved so much more than her husband was giving her. I was hoping Beckett would find the strength to turn his life around, and I was hoping Paige would have the strength to stand up for herself. I liked the fact that Brady didn’t rush that aspect of the story, and she didn’t really rush the romance. It was a slow burn, and I liked that their relationship was built on the foundation of a strong friendship. I’m not saying there weren’t bumps along the way to their HEA, because there were quite a few. In my opinion, that strong foundation helped them find their way to each other.

I LOVED the epilogue. It was many, many years later, and I liked that a lot. I always like to see how characters are doing in the future before having to tell them goodbye. Brady is a new writer to me, and I’m looking forward to reading more books written by her.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is hard to put down book is a must-read. It follows the story of Beckett and Paige. Beckett is a pro hockey player that is known more for his exploits off the ice than on the ice. While Paige is a hard-working woman that has started her own business.

How would you react if one of the most talked about players in the hockey world runs into you and tells you something shocking on accident? That’s not how this story starts but it’s how the fun part begins. Paige works hard for all her money and tries to make time for her globe-trouting husband. While Beckett loves all the ladies. Can the bad boy really learn anything from a good girl like Paige?

What happens when bad meets good? Can a tiger really change its stripes? What happens when a spiteful ex intervenes and causes problems? Can you trust a man that has a hard time trusting himself? Read this amazing book to find out!

Everyone loves a story about a woman “taming” a bad boy right? Beckett has gotten himself a nasty reputation. Paige is stuck in a loveless marriage. The writing is witty and charming. It’s a great romance story with a lot of twists and turns. I highly recommend. I cannot wait to read more in the series.

5 Stars!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

If you love a great sports, second chance romance that was a slow burn (for me) I would definitely recommend this book highly! This author is new to me and I love sports romance books, especially a hockey romance.

Beckett Miller is a hot shot NHL player who loves hockey, booze, drugs and women. When Beckett’s life spins out of control off the ice, his hockey career is threatened. Paige Anderson has it all….successful business, loving husband and wonderful life….or so she thinks. When Beckett initially meets Paige to sell his house to make money, putting two and two together they knew each other in their college years. Paige’s marriage is in shambles and Beckett’s hockey profession and they are there to lean on each other through the ups and downs…and sparks fly hard in that process between Paige and Beckett…but when an ugly scandal shows its head…will Paige and Beckett survive knowing the past can come back and haunt Beckett?

This book was so much a roller coaster of emotions. I was rooting for Beckett and Paige and their story..but I can say at times I wanted to shake Paige! This book has romance, scandal and a second chance for love and true happiness. I am looking forward to the next book in this series!!

Taming Beckett: A Bad Boy Sports Romance (The Playmakers Series Hockey Romances Book 1)

I love almost all sports. For some reason I haven’t gotten into hockey, but have enjoyed every hockey book/series I have read.

When reading a series I always see how the first book grabs me and make my decision from there if I’m going to invest the time I’m the series or not. I decided I was fully invested pretty early on.

I love bad boys and if they can find the girl to change them it’s even better for me. I certainly wasted way too much time on the bad boys.

Paige Anderson “Andie” is exactly what Beckett needed and found her when he had no intention of a relationship. She was far from perfect and had her issues, but don’t we all? She had no clue events from her childhood clouded the way she saw things as an adult.

Beckett was on the hot mess express and heading straight towards a wall. He took everything he had for granted and learned an important lesson the hard way.

They were total opposites but worked together. I’m already hooked and can’t wait to get a chance to read the next book in the series.

While this was an easy read it just felt like something was missing! I was waiting for that hook to pull me in and make me not want to put the book down. While the characters are nice I think the development could have been better. As far as sports go the storyline stayed true to the genre of book!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Taming Beckett is book one in G.K. Brady’s series The Playmakers. Beckett is a pro hockey player with quite the reputation. He’s losing everything due to a drug scandal and it’s kind of humbling him. Finally. Paige is a real estate agent who is going through a divorce and could really use a big paycheck to get her life back together. Though I admit I really liked Paige’s character, I wasn’t a super fan of Beckett. He needs a reality check which he eventually realizes but I wasn’t interested in the reasoning of his troubles. The story itself was a slow burn and though it did finally “get there,” it just felt like it took forever. The pair did have quite the chemistry and their friendship was rather solid throughout. I will be interested to see how the rest of the series plays out overall.

I loved this book, and I’m not really a fan of sports romances. The chemistry and wit between the two characters was amazing. The spicy scenes were HAWT. I felt like they got together too soon but it’s ok but they are so good together. I am so glad they got their HEA! Looking forward to reading the rest of the series!

Paige Paulson, formerly Anderson, has loosely followed the career of Beckett Miller. They knew each other back in college before he became a hotshot NHL star. He’s the last person she expects to run into when she’s meeting a client about selling his house. As she gets to know Beckett on a more personal level she unknowingly starts to fall in love with him. With her marriage falling apart she is trying to keep things professional, but how much longer will that last?<br /><br />Beckett has been tearing it up in the NHL for the last several years, but his days just might be numbered. He has had one too many problems that no teams want him for fear of him bringing down their image. Now that he has found himself out of a job that he loves he must come up with money to cover his debts. In comes Paige, or Andie as he affectionately calls her, to save the day. He knows he needs to change his ways for not only himself but his career. He has never been one to make a commitment when it came to relationships but Paige is making him want to settle down. Will she be willing to be more than friends?<br /><br />I enjoyed this book as well as the writing style of the author. It was nice to see how much Beckett changed over the course of the book and how he saw he could be a much better person being sober. The banter between the characters was fun as well.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When I first started this book I didn’t know what to expect. Beckett Miller was the star hockey player back in college when he met Paige Anderson his senior year. Andie as he liked to call her. He then went pro and their friendship never went anywhere. After 10 years their paths finally cross. Paige is married and working hard to grow her own business. Her marriage is not all it is cracked up to be but we learn more as the story unravels. Beckett Is now a pro NHL player who is eye candy, into drugs, alcohol, and is always making bad decisions off the ice. You learn how his choices cost him so much. This book was a great second chance book. One apparently I didn’t know I needed in my life. I stayed intrigued throughout this book. I wasn’t sure if the author would give us a HEA but we do get it. I am so excited to read the next book in this series. Definitely happy I took a chance on this book.

I am a sucker for a great romance novel and when it is about hockey that makes it even better!! The athletic nature and the romances make for a much better read. This book was phenomenal and left me almost at a loss for words. The chemistry between these characters was one that had me laughing and clinging to the phone needing to know what would happen next. The way the book was written had me loving every second of it. I was sad when I was finished with the book! I cannot wait until I get to read more of the books written by this author and continue reading these novels.

Taming Beckett
By: G.K. Brady

I am a sucker for a good romance. I am even more of a sucker for a bad boy romance. This is possibly one of the best bad boy romances I have ever read. And I completely recommend reading this one, because I could not put it down. I loved Paige “Andie” and her attitude, temperament and behavior. She is one of those girls everyone knows. The one who has tried her best to fight past the cards that life handed her and she did it on her own terms. However, I related to her character so much because she was married to an older man hoping that he would give her the stability she never had in childhood. Beckett, is the best type of bad boy – the kind who has a party boy image but really has one girl that he holds a flame for, and even he may not realize it. I love that they have a history from college and that neither really has changed one bit. I love that they changed and evolved but in the end really stayed true the essence of who they were when they met. I found myself rooting for them every step of the way. I also loved the plot point of Beckett and his hockey career. You could feel him fighting for redemption in every aspect of his career.

This is my first read from this author. If you like slow burn steamy romance with second chances and a “bad boy” then keep reading this review. We are met with our former NHL star Beckett Miller who is the middle of his career and life spiraling down due to his terrible life choices. Then our leading lady Paige.

Paige has kept up with Beckett’s debacle from afar because they seemed to have prior connection and was her what if.

When everything starts to hit the fan for the both of them, they seem to find each other again. Their chemistry seemed to never dwindle and this was steamy and slow burn. Just an overall good read.

Beckett’s latest scandal is a doozy…he has lost his money, his friends, his restaurant, and his career is on the line. Trying to figure out what to do next leads him to see his house. Through the process, he builds a friendship with his realtor. However, she is going through her own struggles. Will they be able to help each other heal and move forward?

Paige is a realtor with broken relationship with her cheating husband. After she is hired to sell Beckett’s house, their past comes to light and they begin to form a friendship of helping each other. Due to her husband, she has a hard time trusting the men in her life. But, when the time is right, can she take a chance on Beckett? Or is the notorious bad boy not the man for her?

I enjoyed this story because both Beckett and Paige had their own storylines that were interesting…and the way they came together was enjoyable to read. There is no cheating in this book…so don’t worry about that. I feel that each of the characters grew on their own while being able to be the help that the other needed. Overall, a good story!

This was a great novel of friends to lovers. I really loved how Brady took the time for the characters to grow. The two leads grew as individual characters in their own storylines, then as friends, then as lovers. The progression and growth were really spectacularly done without getting lost, bogging down, or getting boring. Just an all-around well written book!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beckett is stumbling downward into a life he is unfamiliar with. A once high ranking hockey player finds himself broke and lacking many friends. In the sale of one of his many properties, he reconnects with
Paige, a former college acquaintance. Paige has always crushed on Beckett but he’s always been out of her reach for the relationship she wants in life. When they reconnect, Paige is suffering from her own battles of a broken marriage and leans on Beckett to support her through.
Most of the book is set with their friendship which is very nice to see a deeper connection for the characters. We are given years of history for these two characters which makes the developing romance seem plausible. Through friendship, support, humor and honesty, can these two from the lasting bond we all want for them? This was a great read and loved the flow of the then and now for our main characters.

On the surface this book is your typical bad boy romance, but really it is just so much more. Paige has the life she wanted until she found out her husband was cheating on her. Beckett is spiraling out of control. A chance meeting with someone from their past is just what the doctor ordered for these two. Can he help her let go of the past? Can she help him find his path? I loved this story so much. I felt like I really felt the characters. I will definitely be reading the next in this series.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

So this one took me a while to read. I feel it was just overlong and to much internal dialogue for me. I liked the characters and was easily able to empathize with them on one hand. The other is frustration with the way they act and react. I understand Beckett and his downward spiral and Paige’s unhappy marriage but out of the two she is my most irritating. She has morals(to an extent) and is smart but she walks a gray line in the marriage side. So she frustrated me a lot. Beckett is honest and open about his past and doesn’t hide from it.

A few things I did like is the honesty of Beckett he really owned his mistakes. Also the advice from his Dad and brother is priceless. I wish there would have been a bit more of them.

Overall this isn’t a favorite one for me. Its an okay read but if you like a drawn out romance with a lot of angst this could be for you.

This was my first book by G.K. Brady and I’m not one for hockey, but this was a good book. I had to keep reading to find out what Paige was going to do. I love the way the characters developed in this story. The author really kept you instead in the story by the way she wrote the world around it. Everything going on around them it was fait that finally kicked in. Beckett had his world turned upside down and Paige was there to pick up the pieces. When Paige thought, her world was coming to an end Beckett was there. I will get the rest of the books to this series to keep reading about the romances that the author puts in front of us.

Taming Beckett (The Playmakers, #1)Taming Beckett by G.K. Brady
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Paige and Beckett met, briefly, in college and had a real pull towards each other. Before anything could come of it, Beckett was drafted into the NHL and Paige ended up being wowed by an older man and getting married.

Beckett realized his dream and then proceeded to become the bad boy of hockey, with excellent plays and wins, hard partying ways and lots and lots of women he wasn’t interested in keeping around. He did, however, create a kids hockey camp, a restaurant and more and was very proud of the people he helped succeed through them. Paige pursued her dreams of flipping and designing, selling, and eventually pursuing building new houses, but her husband has seemed less interested in coming home to spend time with her in between business trips and the passion is lacking.

After the final straw of Beckett getting into trouble he can’t get himself out of, he finds himself back in town selling off all of the high end things he acquired through his career in order to pay off the people he owed money to. It turns out without all of the drugs and women, he is a pretty solid guy. When he meets Paige again, he makes a less than stellar first impression.

Eventually, he realizes they’ve met in the past and build a beautiful friendship. In the course of life, things change and they begin to have feelings for one another but never act on them – too afraid to ruin a beautiful friendship. Will they take a chance together? Is there a happily ever after for Andy and Beckett? This is a well written book with very likable characters that keep you invested.

Beckett has the reputation of the bad boy of hockey but when he is linked to drug’s everything goes away overnight. His endorsements, his career and then his money have vanished, he is broke and broken, so the only thing he can do to save himself is sell his house.

Paige is a real estate agent tasked to helping Beckett sell his house, but she herself is having issues with a divorce and can she really be bothered to be charmed by an ex-hockey player, but as they start to get to know each other, things start to change and her feelings for Beckett start surfing.

This is a great story of strength and rediscovery; the story introduces two broken people and with a budding friendship along the way discovers that they aren’t as broken as they thought they were. Paige is trapped in a marriage, trying desperately to hang onto anything in the end it is just better to cut the tie, causing her to re-evaluate what she truly needs and wants. With Beckett it is a discovery that all his life he has had people telling him “Yes” and when he finds the one true person who cares enough to say “no” to him he starts to look closely at the person he has become and decides he does not like that person very much.

So as the story entwines both these characters you discover a blossoming romance and respect for each other. I can’t wait to read the next boo in this series.

Beckett is the ultimate bad boy, if it can be done he’s probably done it. Paige is the sweet, introverted, do everything by the book good girl. They knew each other in college and even though their lives took different paths they are ultimately led back to one another. Beckett’s career is on the rocks, and Paige’s marriage is on equally rocky ground. Can Beckett redeem himself, save his career, and earn the love of someone who he probably isn’t worthy of? Can Paige let her guard down and trust someone to not hurt her? This enemies-to-lovers book is a must read!

Beckett is your hot shot bad boy. NHL star player, incredibly in shape, all around ladies man.
Paige is dealing with a cheating husband and a grueling divorce.
They needed each other in more ways than they realized, Paige needing the commission money from selling beckets house, or being each others listening ear. The chemistry is off the charts! They both learn to trust and realized what they need/want in life together in their own ways.
Great contemporary sports read.

Ok so I’m a huge sports romance fan but throw in a bad boy too and I’m grabbing that book barely even reading the synopsis which is exactly what happened with this book AND it did not disappoint! I was hooked from beginning to end. There was so much more to this book than a bad boy hockey player, I really feel like I went on a journey with the characters in this story. The growth that both Beckett and Paige go on is so emotional and the friendship and connection that they have with each other is so lovely. I pretty much fell for Beckett straightaway!
This truly is a wonderful story and so much more than I first anticipated it to be! Highly recommend 5 star read!
