Audiobook details
The coach's daughter is off limits, obviously
Wylie Wood wants one thing: to walk away from grad school and finally paint for a living. Her father, head coach of the Vancouver Agitators, has a different plan, and it involves Wylie working as personal assistant to Levi Posey, his star defenseman, whether she likes it or not. She does not like it. At least not at first.
Levi has spent his career being the guy who fixes everyone else's love life while keeping his own feelings locked down tight, and Coach Wood's daughter is the one name on the entire roster he's not allowed to think about twice. Naturally, that makes her impossible to stop thinking about. Between spreadsheets, grocery runs, and Wylie's habit of turning every task into a small disaster, Levi finds himself falling for the one person guaranteed to end his career if anyone finds out.
What starts as a professional arrangement built on strict rules and forced proximity turns into something neither of them can label without consequences. So This Is War follows two people trying to keep their hands, and their hearts, where they belong, in a season where losing control off the ice might cost Levi everything he's built on it.
I've followed the Vancouver Agitators series since book one, and Levi Posey finally getting his own story was worth the wait. Meghan Quinn balances the comedy and the ache better here than in most of the earlier installments.
Wylie is a great heroine because her stubbornness about walking away from grad school never reads as immaturity. She knows what she wants, and watching her negotiate that against her father's expectations gives the romance real stakes beyond the workplace taboo. Levi's arc works because Quinn lets him be the responsible one for once, after several books of him meddling in everyone else's relationships, and the role reversal is genuinely funny.
The forbidden romance angle, with Coach Wood's no-dating-players rule hanging over every scene, keeps tension high without leaning on manufactured misunderstandings. Their banter carries most of the middle section, and it never feels padded, which is a real risk in a book this long.
Series regulars will appreciate the returning cast, especially the previous couples showing up to complicate or support Levi and Wylie's situation. New readers can follow along fine, though some of the emotional weight in cameo scenes lands harder if you know the earlier books.
The full cast narration is the real standout here. Teddy Hamilton gives Levi a grounded, self-deprecating warmth, while Emma Wilder brings sharp comic timing to Wylie without losing her vulnerability. With Jason Clarke, Vanessa Edwin, J.F. Harding, and the rest of the ensemble voicing the supporting characters, every locker room scene and family dinner has its own distinct energy.
