Shutdown Player: Game On in Seattle (Seattle Sockeyes Book 6) Kindle Edition

After a brief marriage to an unfaithful, gold-digging wife, Jared Roderick is looking for the perfect good girl, and he thinks he’s found her. Sweet, quiet, prim Stephanie Clarke is exactly the woman he wants and nothing like his cheating ex. Now to convince a reluctant Steph they were meant to be together.

Steph has had enough of men controlling her life from her preacher father to her abusive boyfriend. She wants to regain the innocence she lost and ignore the ugliness of her recent past. She’s not the pure and sheltered virgin Jared desires and fends off his advances despite the sizzling chemistry between them.

Jared is as determined to win Steph over as he is to win hockey games; but when he discovers his fantasy is tarnished, does he have the strength to skate the distance?

Love these Hockey Players❤️. Two people, two bad past experiences, one cheated on, the other emotionally and physically abused. Consequently neither willing to get into another relationship, or trust to easily. This story will open your eyes, show you there are good people out there whom you can love and trust, and be loved by💖. Awesome story.

Stephanie is the daughter of a preacher. She just got out of an abusive relationship and isn't looking for any relationship. She's working as a party crasher when she runs into NHL player Jared. Jared just went through a messy divorce. He agrees to be matched to find love. Steph is assigned to assist him. Somewhere along the way they become more than friends. Terrific story and so many of the characters from previous books add to the storyline.

Sockeye Hockey is back and Jami Davenport gives us our newest couple that have gone through enough struggles that you can’t help get wrapped up in their story.
Jared Roderick a player for The Seattle Sockeyes has been through a really rough time lately, finding out his wife has been cheating and doing all kinds of awful things and has taken him to the brink of losing it all financially. But what Jared is looking for is that one person who can have the kind of relationship that will bring happiness back into his life, never did he think he would meet Stephanie Clark.
Stephanie Clark is a young woman just trying to move ahead with her life after experiencing some horrific times with her ex. All she wants is to leave the past in the past and look to a brighter future and maybe once she gets to know Jared that can become a reality.
The two of them will have many obstacles to overcome but you can’t help cheering them on from the minute they meet. Their relationship will be tested but if they can overcome whatever is thrown there way they might have that HEA that they both truly deserve.
Secondary characters are usually just that but when you meet Agnes & Iona McIntyre you won’t help falling for these two older woman and the wisdom that they bring to Jared & Stephanie.

First read by this author. Loved the plot but it dragged on and on sometimes juvenile. Jared and Stephanie both have issues in their past. The book gave no back history and left to wondering about Candy. Love the friends.

Awesome couple. Both the hero and heroine have there own troubles. I love how Jami D. took them both and brought them together slowly revealing their insecurities and over coming them. We all have Skelton’s in our closet and have things we aren’t proud of. Things we have grown from but wouldn’t want used against us. Jared and Stephanie are no exception to the rule. Reading about how their pasts held them back from each other yet wasn’t used against them by the other was an encouraging read. They were two very broken souls. Jared having been duped and milked dry by his recent ex and Stephanie with her past profession and abusive ex these are two people who found there way to each other against all odd. I didn’t expect anything less from Jami as she always writes such inspirational stories. Can’t wait for more to come from this AMAZING author. Jami is by far one of my top five go to authors. You can read her books over and over and walk away with a renewed happiness for yourself and the characters.

I love Hockey romance and this one was not a disappointment. I love the cast of characters this author has built for this team and the football and baseball teams and I like catching up with the people that had their HEA in the previous books. This author never fails to write a book that you can't put down and I wait for her next books with baited breath.

I love that this is Jared's story. He deserves a happy ending with what he went through with his wife. You get a little bit of his story in previous books. Steph is strong and resilient. She may be looking over her shoulder and skittish. She needs someone sweet and not so controlling in her life. I love how the team wives take her under their wing. The sisters Agnes and Iona play a huge part in helping Steph trust men again. I love how they gently push Jared and Steph together in a way that doesn't seem pushy. Jared is caring and gentle once he slowly gets an understanding what Steph has gone through. Steph and Jared are a perfect match and I love how the friendship they build slowly blossoms to more. The men of the Sockeyes are amazing and supportive and that is why I love this Hockey series so much. Even when Stephs past finally comes to full light no one turns their back on her when she needs it the most. I love this book and I can't wait for more of this series.

They're both broken. Jared was lied to by his wife, and Steph was forced to survive by doing things that went against her upbringing. Yet they find each other with a little help from two old women who pride themselves on helping people find love. I laughed and I cried through this book. All the feels. I loved the glimpses into the lives of previous team members. Thank you, Jami, for showing that even the broken ones can be mended.

Jareds story and he was a challenge. We’d met him as a rookie in previous books with his awful girlfriend and then wife. Fast forward and its over and he’s looking for companionship and a relationship that’s meaningful. His team mates knew what was going on but didn’t help and he walked away giving her an over the top payment leaving himself broke and in debt. I wouldn’t think so ,but anyway no retribution and he falls in love with someone who doesn’t mind the debt!
