Perfect EVERTHING! Loved the story & Erin Mallon and Zach Webber narrate! *drool*

I loved this audiobook! The romance was was beautiful and the chemistry was sizzling. The storyline of love
and loss was squeezed my heart and never let it go. Riley was everything I wanted in a heroine: Strong, smart, sassy, and could go toe-to-toe with Brady. And what can I say about Brady? I loved him! He broke my heart at times, but put it back together and always kept me wanting more. The chemistry and passion between he and Riley was unreal and had me turning up my AC in late November! Their banter had me thoroughly entertained and a constant smile on my face. I even found myself tearing up a little at the end. Now that I look back I can’t believe this audiobook is nine hours long! It flew by and I still wanted more! I’m an official Samantha Christy fan and I’m running to listen to the other books in this series right away.

Narration was done by the audio-rockstars Erin Mallon and Zachary Webber so it was basically perfection. These two are automatic one-click narrators for me. If they narrate it, I’m buying it. Their narration here is absolutely effortless and you can’t help but get lost in the story and emotions. 5+ Stars.

10 STARS!!!

I LOVE this series!!! Man did Brady’s story break my freaking heart!! But it also put it back together! I loved Brady and Rylee’s story so much! I really love how this series not only gives you layers of characters and their stories but also teaches the game!! A lot of sports romances are not really about the game itself and this series gives us a lot of everything and its awesome. I love Samantha Christy’s writing style and this one was just as epic as every other story she writes.
And to top it off she always picks THE BEST narrators in the industry and I love her for that! they did an amazing job!

Great story except

I didn't like splitting up the narration into part 1 and part 2. It didn't allow us to hear about Brady's healing from his own perspective, only through the eyes of Riley.

Swoon worthy second chance romance

Don't you know, Rylee - You're everything to me. My Holy Grail. My jackpot. My perfect game.

Samantha Christy always deliver. Erin Mallon and Zachary Webber really bring Brady and Rylee's story to life. Brady started as a wounded and bitter man who have never faced the losses of his past when he met Rylee who was the team PT tasked to helped with his recovery. Rylee is strong and has secrets of her own to bear. They started out as friends and as the relationship developed and secrets are slowly reveal, you can feel the breakup and the possible heartache is hidden. You will ache for them and love every minute of it. Can't wait for Sawyer's story to complete the trilogy.

It was ok.

I’m not feeling the same love for BENCHING BRADY as I did for book 1, CATCHING CADEN. I know Brady has suffered a tragic loss and his pain is awful, but I felt more sympathy towards him in CATCHING CADEN where he was a compelling secondary character.

Although the writing is very good, I feel the potential for a gripping romance between Brady and Rylee was unrealised and I can't pinpoint why. The story was good, but not great. Perhaps BENCHING BRADY suffers unfairly from standing in the shadow of CATCHING CADEN’s extraordinary emotional impact on me. Nevertheless, because of CATCHING CADEN, I'll keep reading Samantha Christy's work.

BENCHING BRADY is the second stand-alone book in the Perfect Game Series. I would recommend reading the books in order because BENCHING BRADY contains important spoilers for CATCHING CADEN.

Narrator Zachary Webber was perfection (as usual). I always need a little adjustment period for Erin Mallon’s breathy way of speaking. Then I enjoy her work too. Overall, I loved the performances here.

A Perfect Audiobook

I can't say enough about this book. The last few chapters had me on the edge of my seat in tears! Can I just say how much I love Erin and her female & Male voices?

My only interest was Zachary Webber 🏆👌🏽👏🏽

It was a good story, I'm a fan of any story with Zachary Webber! He's the best narrator on Audible hand's down! His talent is perfect 👌🏽 he can take on the role of anyone and his voice sounds different in each story. I had to skip past some chapters because of the female narrator, her voice was beyond irritating. She can not do the voice of a male, the attempt was awful. It got a little slow towards the end, but it was good. I think her voice messed up the performance and I had a hard time listening to it. The story was interesting though, sad, loving and sweet. I wish Andi A. could've did this story, those two are the perfect pair ! 👍🏽

a perfect story

I have read all three books and this is still my favorite! Love, tragedy and love again. I loved the female lead. she is strong, smart and knows what she wants and won't sacrifice her family for it.
