About This Audiobook

Tia Louise delivers a feverishly fun rom-com with *Pinch*, a second-chance sports romance that’s as chaotic as a breakaway breakup. Lane ‘Gavin’ Knight isn’t just the LA Champions’ newest defenseman—he’s your cousin’s best friend and your new nightmare roommate, crashing your life (and your crown after that infamous parade mishap) like a bull in a china shop. The chemistry is instant, the bickering is relentless, and the slow-burn passion simmers just hot enough to steam up your earbuds. Louise’s razor-sharp banter and effortless charm make this feel less like a book you’re listening to and more like eavesdropping on a couple who can’t stand each other—until they can’t stand to be apart. The sports setting isn’t just window dressing; it’s a high-stakes backdrop where jocks and jabs collide, with enough locker-room tension to make even non-hockey fans feel like insiders.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I went into *Pinch* expecting another shallow hockey romance, but Louise’s snappy dialogue and deliciously messy dynamic between Lane and the narrator had me laughing out loud on my commute—something I usually save for true crime. Ryan Lee Dunlap and Willa Jaymes deserve a standing ovation for their dual narration. Dunlap’s Lane is all brooding intensity and accidental charm, while Jaymes nails the exasperated, no-nonsense narrator with a delivery that sounds like she’s rolling her eyes mid-sentence. The pacing is tight, though I wish the conflict had more teeth; the resolution wraps up a little too neatly after the hefty buildup. Still, the production is top-tier, with crisp audio that makes the hockey arena scenes feel immersive—even if I still don’t know what a ‘pinch’ is in this context. If you crave rom-coms where the humor stings harder than a slapshot, this is your next listen.
