The Keeper (Gods of the Game, Book 3), by Ana Huang | Free Audiobook
A goalkeeper with a no-relationships rule, and the nanny he did not want
Noah Wilson is a goalkeeper, which means his job is to be the last person standing between the ball and everything behind it, and he is very good at it. Off the pitch he is a single father with a daughter he genuinely likes spending time with, and a rule about relationships that he has never had a reason to break. What he needs is not a partner but a nanny, and he has already been through a spectacular number of those.
Carina needs the job more than she wants it. She has spent years stacking shifts to pay for a trip to Antarctica, and a single emergency has just emptied the account she spent all that time filling. So she takes the position with the brooding athlete she is fairly sure cannot stand her, and finds a man who is not what the tabloids describe. He is not supposed to want her, she is not supposed to soften around him, and the World Cup is coming, which leaves neither of them room to be distracted.
The third and final Gods of the Game novel, out on 27 October 2026: Noah and Carina, the goalkeeper and the nanny. The review will go up once the book is out and there is something to judge. In the meantime the site already has The Defender, book two of the same series, and King of Gluttony.
The Keeper closes Ana Huang's Gods of the Game series: Noah Wilson, a goalkeeper with a World Cup ahead of him and a daughter to raise, has run out of nannies, and the only candidate left is Carina, who needs the money for a trip she has been saving towards for years and who is convinced he hates her. Twelve hours and twenty-nine minutes, read by Teddy Hamilton and Emily Woo Zeller.
With the trial you spend it on whichever title you like, this one included, and you can cancel from your account in a couple of clicks. The title you take stays in your library even if you cancel, so nothing disappears at the end of the period. Playback speed, the sleep timer and picking up exactly where you stopped all work the way you would expect.
It is the third and final book of the series but written to be read on its own, so you can start here without having met the earlier couples. Twelve and a half hours is a good long weekend, and the two-narrator production splits the grumpy goalkeeper from the woman who refuses to be intimidated by him. Out on 27 October 2026.
