About This Audiobook

Imagine your worst enemy living next door—but instead of ignoring them, you can’t stop thinking about their smirk. *Heart Trick* flips the enemies-to-lovers trope into a high-stakes, sports-centered romp where petty revenge fuels an undeniable pull. Kristen Granata’s sharp dialogue and escalating tension make this a propulsive listen, especially for readers who crave banter as biting as the romantic chemistry crackles. The setting—a tight-knit hockey community—adds a layer of stakes beyond just the flirty sparring, giving the story a grounded, almost cinematic feel.

What sets this apart? The audiobook’s dual narration by Ash Beverly and Amy Hall is a masterclass in contrast. Beverly’s gruff, amused take on the male lead balances Hall’s breezy, exasperated energy for the heroine, making their exchanges feel like a real-time verbal dodgeball match. The pacing never drags, even when the plot meanders slightly, thanks to snappy editing and a soundtrack that nods to the sporty backdrop without overpowering the story. It’s a feast for fans of rom-coms who want their stakes served with a side of sarcasm—and maybe a puck to the face.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I went into *Heart Trick* expecting a fluffy sports romance, but Granata’s writing sneaks up on you with its sharp wit and messy, human characters. The heroine’s petty revenge spiral (yes, she starts it) feels gloriously unhinged, and the hockey details ground it just enough to avoid cliché. That said, the male lead’s behavior swings wildly between charming and outright obnoxious—it’s hard to root for him when he’s casually dismissive of her profession as a sports journalist. The narration duo saves the day. Ash Beverly’s deep, dry delivery for the love interest sells every smirk and alpha-hole moment, while Amy Hall’s punchy, infuriated inflections make the heroine’s one-liners land like a slap. My only gripe? The production falters during a few late-game emotional scenes, where the volume feels unnaturally compressed. Still, the chemistry between the narrators sold the will-they-won’t-they tension, even when the plot’s resolution felt a tad too tidy. A solid 4/5 for the ride—just don’t expect emotional depth to outpace the banter.
