Publisher's summary
Rule number one: Don’t fall in love with the coach.
Gabriel Theriault’s been skating on thin ice for the past two seasons with Toronto, but his arrest following an off-ice fight is the final straw.
His only shot at redemption is to start over in Evanston and prove that he still has what it takes to be a pro player.
No more fights. No more drinking. No more random hookups.
Rule number two: The team always comes first.
Years ago, Lance Tate’s on-ice injury ended his career and marriage.
His long road to recovery led to a job he loves as assistant coach with the Evanston Otters, and he wouldn’t dream of giving that up.
Until he meets Gabriel.
The French Canadian is 15 years younger, burdened by too much responsibility, and the most intriguing man Lance has ever met.
He’s also the absolute last man Lance should get involved with.
The draw between them is impossible to resist—even if it could cost them the game they love.
Their only chance at winning it all is to change the rules.
Trigger warning: Changing the Rules includes a supporting character with advancing dementia. Frank discussion about an emotionally neglectful parent and verbal abuse. Use of mild homophobic slurs and brief mention of suicidal ideation (non-graphic).

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.

Charles Preston Carmichael is the most infuriating man I've ever met. I want to sock the golden boy of college hockey right in the mouth. He enjoys telling me everything I'm messing up—publicly. And since he's my roommate for the next year, I can't avoid him. Yet there's something about him that makes me watch him. Something dark. A secret I want to uncover. When he returns from a weekend away, broken and haunted, I can't keep my distance anymore. He needs someone, and I'll be damned if it's not me.

Hockey is in my blood. I learned to skate before I learned how to ride a bike. I’ve been on a wild ride, playing at the highest level for some of the biggest and best teams in the league. But now it’s over, and I’m not sure what to do with myself. So I'm going home to Elmwood. But I’ll tell you what I’m not gonna do—I’m not going to coach my buddy’s junior hockey league. No chance. I don’t know how to deal with kids, and besides, the other coach—who happens to be my best friend’s brother—hates me. With reason.

I’ve had a crush on my brother’s best friend since the moment I laid eyes on him four years ago. Warner Ramsey is 225 pounds of pure hotness, a media darling, and one of the best NFL quarterbacks in the league. Hell, he’s the reason I figured out I’m solidly bi. It was easy to keep my crush under control when I was in college. Now, we play for the same team, and every time he talks smack, I want to shut him up. With my mouth.

Story
My path to success never included an enemy as a teammate, especially one as infuriating as Quinton de Haas. Clawing under my skin is his favorite pastime, only feeding the animosity between us as the years pass. We’re as completely opposite as two people can be; the golden boy and the black sheep. Constantly at odds or at each other’s throats. The only thing we can agree on is hockey is our true love, and we’ll do whatever it takes to come out on top. I never imagined that drive would lead me to do the unthinkable: falling into bed with my not-so-straight rival.

Ever since we met two years ago, Eden Burkehammer has made everything better. The big defenseman sets me at ease. He’s a beast on the ice—brutal and physical—but when it’s the two of us, he turns to me with these unexpectedly soft brown eyes. This gravelly laugh that makes my whole body smile. And yeah, I might have thrown a glance his way a time or two in the steamed-up locker room showers—you know, just curious. But he’s my best friend. My teammate. Roommate. I don’t want to mess with that. Just the thought of losing him sends a cold zap the full length of my spine.

Military life is all I’ve known since I was born. But when a top-secret mission fails, I find myself suddenly discharged with nowhere to go. Mike Bravo saved my life, and they want me to join them, but there’s one small problem. Isaac “Iris” Griffin. He’s as irresistibly snarky as he always was, only there’s a big difference this time. I’m no longer closeted or scared to live my truth. And the truth is, I’ve always wanted him. It’s against Mike Bravo’s rules to fraternize with other team members. But something tells me Iris might be worth the insubordination.

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...

A long time ago, in a suburban high school not so far away, a closeted nerd (me) and a closeted soccer star (Hutch) fell in love and planned to make their public debut at prom. Until Hutch bailed at the last minute, leaving me with a broken heart and unworn tuxedo. Tale as old as time, right? I spent the past ten years working to forget Hutch, returning to our old high school to teach and make new memories that could erase ones of him. I thought Hutch was ancient history, off living his professional athlete life.

Wrong. The trade was the least of my concerns. I met a girl, Natalie. She was perfect, but I swore I would never get involved with anyone during the season. It was too complicated.

Breaking news: The bad boy of baseball, Maddox Paige, is totally and utterly whipped. Okay, that might not be the headline in the newspaper this morning, but it's the reality of my current situation. It all started a month ago when I received a call from my best friend, Kinsley. She’d gotten a new job in Chicago and needed a place to stay. I've known the girl since I was five, so I figured there wouldn't be any harm in having her stay at my place for a while. Ha! Total disaster.

Very Enjoyable
Changing the Rules is Book 3 in the Rules of the Game series. This is an enjoyable age gap, player/coach hockey romance about Gabriel, a hockey player in need of redemption and his loving coach, Lance. Sometimes it takes a real screw up and move to find where you really belong. Gabriel and Lance are so sweet together and don't want to mess up either of their careers. But Lance is just the person Gabriel needs, in more ways than one. I enjoyed watching the relationship between Gabriel and his father. Though it hadn't been the best Gabriel does everything he can to help his father. This book is wonderful addition to the series and I recommend it.
Narrator James Edward Jones does an amazing job. Listening to him I really believed Gabriel was French-Canadian.

Great story of redemption.
I read Bending the Rules so I was already familiar with some of Gabriel’s information. I will admit that I wasn’t super excited for his story, but I’m happy to say I was wrong. It is a great story of redemption and I so enjoyed seeing Gabriel grow, shed his burdens, and find true love and happiness. It wasn’t great hearing about his past sexcapades as often as they were mentioned, I understand there being some in there to put in perspective how Gabriel dealt with his pain and that giving up that part of his life was part of his healing process and redemption, it was just a little much at times. Definitely glad he left that lifestyle in Toronto with his past. Lance is a natural caregiver. All he wants is a partner to do the big and little things for. It was precious to see Gabriel’s reactions to Lance’s kindness. They had a kinship in having traumatic brain injuries affect their lives. They had great chemistry, in and out of the bedroom. My favorite moments were when they were showing simple displays of affection to one another and when they were being adorably domestic as well. The hockey was great too! I read the whole thing while watching the Stanley Cup playoffs (and now I listened to it right when they started this year!) 😁 loved it.
James Edward Jones killed it once again. His voice is amazing. I loved his accent and portrayal of Gabriel. Top notch narrating.

Love this book
I absolutely love this book. The way Lance cares and wants only the best for Gabriel is so sweet and the love Gabriel had to give to Lance was beautiful. It was hard sometimes to figure out who's point of view I was listening to though and often got lost if I was multitasking. This is after reading the book and knowing what was happening. Overall though the performance was great.

Lance is just what Gabriel needed
After meeting Gabriel in book 1, and seeing he was such a hot mess (and later on finding out why) I was happy to see he would get his HEA. There was a lot of time spent talking about all his previous conquests, which we get he used to be super promiscuous, but we also don’t need reminding of it almost every chapter! The point is he’s calming, he’s settling down, he’s falling in love. He’s no longer using s3x to self medicate the way some use alcohol. Therefore we don’t need reminding, I as the reader want the focus to be on his current loving relationship. There is a lot of difficult times discussed for Gabriel, taking care of his father who never once took care of him. There’s so much guilt and resentment wrapped up in one messy package and Gabriel has no one he can confide in until he meets Lance. Lance saw him struggling with something personal and he made it his mission to be someone who could be leant on and they end up falling deeply for each other. The narrator does a decent job with a difficult accent and I enjoyed the experience. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this audiobook.

A coach and player navigate a secret romance
Gabriel is a new player for the Otters, and he’s having a tough time looking after his Dad, who has CTE due to numerous concussion he’s had in his career.
Lance is the assistant coach, and sees Gabriel’s stress and wants to help. It’s only after seeing Gabriel’s Dad that he learns what’s happening.
Gabriel lets Lance in to take care of him instead of doing it all alone, and though they worry about their careers, they won’t give each other up.
Things go well for Gabriel and the team, and though they eventually have to face the public, the couple are committed and have support from the team and management.
Interesting to read about CTE, and hopefully safety gear is more protective nowadays.
I like Gabriel and his swearing and French phrases, and Lance is sweet and caring.
I received this book for free, and voluntarily provide my honest review.

Loved it!
I am really enjoying this series! Lance and Gabriel are perfect together! Gabriel had so much on his shoulders with his Dad’s condition and trying to show his new team that he was committed and focused on hockey instead of all the drama. Lance is drawn to Gabriel from the start but tries to fight his attraction. When Gabriel reaches out to Lance for help and finally opens up to him, it’s impossible for them to deny their feelings. One of my favorite moments was actually between Gabriel and his Dad. Due to the coach/player dynamic of their relationship, Lance and Gabriel are afraid one or both of them could lose their jobs if they are found out. I was glad that when the time came they found support where it mattered. I wasn’t familiar with the narrator, but he did a great job. I definitely recommend!

The Narrator Gives an Outstanding Performance
Hearing narrator James Edward Jones give voice to French-Canadian hockey player Gabriel - the delicious accent and speaking French - was such a treat. He's ranking high on my list of favorite narrators, and made listening to this story an absolute delight.
Bi hockey player Gabriel (30) and offensive coach Lance (49) weren't looking for a relationship, but their "romantic situation" quickly progresses as they fall head over heels for one another. Gabriel is out, Lance is not (though that's not a big focus), and secretly dating has the potential to blow both of their careers apart.
I really enjoyed how kind, caring and considerate Gabriel and Lance are toward each other - it's easy to see why they fall hard and fast - and how the delicate and difficult situation around Gabriel's father's health was handled by the MCs (and the author).
I went into this being new to the series and despite what appears to be numerous recurring characters, I didn't have any trouble following along. This is a story I'll listen to again. I received a free review copy of this audio book and have left this honest review voluntarily.

An amazing MM story set in the Ice Hockey World
Another great instalment from this series. I listened to the audio book. The main characters in this book are player, Gabriel Theriault and assistant ice hockey coach Lance Tate. An age difference and a bi awaking. Such a great story about acceptance and CTE in older ice hockey players. Can't wait to read more from this series.

Emotional listen
This was a surprisingly emotional one for me. I really enjoyed getting to know these characters better. I do wish there was a little more interaction with Lance's kids especially his son and with Noah and Gabriel. I feel like there was a lot left unresolved there and there were a few other plot point I felt this way about as well but I'm hoping there some resolution later in the series. Overall the narration is done very well and I really enjoyed this listen.
