About This Audiobook

When professional figure skater Tessa Carter finds herself paired against Lake Powers—arrogant, infuriating, and the NHL’s most polarizing bad boy—in a high-stakes figure-skating/ice-hockey crossover challenge, sparks fly in ways neither expects. Kenna King delivers a sharp, steamy rom-com where competition isn’t just on the ice but in the bedroom. Tessa’s no pushover; she’s got the skill to back up her snark, and Lake? Well, he’s got the ego to match his physical prowess. The banter crackles, the tension simmers, and the physical chemistry is off the charts—even if neither is willing to admit they’re more than just rivals. With cameos from the sports world’s elite and a plot that escalates from playful jabs to full-blown passion, this isn’t your average sports romance. It’s a battle of wits, wills, and… well, other things.

Narrated by Ryan Hudson and Maeve York, this audiobook is a masterclass in vocal charisma. Hudson’s Lake is all rough edges and smoldering charm, while York’s Tessa is a firecracker with a razor-sharp tongue. Their chemistry is electric—listeners will swear they’re hearing real on-ice trash talk turned into flirtation. The production leans into the audiobook’s playful, high-energy vibe, with punchy pacing and just the right amount of cheeky sound effects to keep the scenes vivid. If you’ve ever wanted a romance where the foreplay is as intense as the forecheck, this is it.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I went into *Filthy Score* expecting a run-of-the-mill sports romance with a grumpy/sunshine dynamic, but Kenna King flipped the script in the best way. Tessa isn’t some wide-eyed ingénue—she’s a fierce competitor who doesn’t back down from Lake’s trash talk, and their verbal sparring is the highlight. The story balances humor and heat with surprising grace, though I’ll admit the middle act meanders a bit with secondary characters who feel like filler. Still, the payoff in the final third is worth it, especially when the stakes get personal. Ryan Hudson’s narration is a revelation. His Lake is all gruff confidence and simmering frustration, but he nails the rare moments when the character drops the act and lets vulnerability peek through. Maeve York’s Tessa is a delight—she’s got the perfect mix of sass and warmth, and her delivery of Tessa’s internal snark is pitch-perfect. My only critique? The production team leaned *hard* into sound design for the ice scenes, which occasionally clashes with the dialogue in a way that feels more MTV Real World than immersive. But the narration carries the audiobook, and by the final chapter, you’ll be rooting for Tessa and Lake to finally stop pretending they hate each other. A win for fans of snarky, athletic romance.
