About this listen

He's the biggest, baddest, most spider-fearing motherpucker on the ice....

When you're named after the king of the gods, the world expects certain things of you.

Tough? Damn right.

Smart? Don't let the hockey uniform fool you.

Large and in charge? Honey, I'm the biggest, baddest, mother pucking-est machine to ever own the ice. I shoot. I score. In and out of the rink. I don't come early, but I come often, if you know what I mean. And I always leave the ladies wanting more.

Until that chick last night.

I'm no one-thrust wonder, and you're damn right I'm going to prove to her I can do better. But every time I think I'm finally on my way back into her pants, she one-ups and out-balls me.

I should cut my losses, lick my wounds, and walk away.

But Zeus Berger doesn't walk away from anything.

Especially when she's the only woman in the world who might be able to handle me.

The Pilot and the Puck-Up is a stand-alone romantic comedy featuring a hockey player whose ego is the only thing bigger than his shoe size, the most badass woman to ever fly a plane, rubber chockey (don't ask), and no cheating or cliffhangers.

That was an eventful ride! I already loved the author’s special brand of humor, but she overdid herself this time.

The characters are unique, quirky, constantly bantering. Between the monster of a guy with a soft heart, his basically mute twin brother, the friend addicted to helium, and our main female character, also called Fireball, who can beat anyone at anything when she doesn’t pilot her plane, and who has somehow forgotten that she had functional lady bits until she met with Zeus, it’s a whole circus that you’ll meet.

And the theme of the book is that, behind those appearances–sometimes even behind the persona those characters have chosen to show the world–people don’t see who they really are, and they can sometimes forgot it too. But always trust the people who love you to see through the costume.

And the steam! Hot damn, the author brought the sexy on this time.

And the audiobook is amazing. Both narrators are regular with this author, and they have the perfect pace and energy to convey the fun and the sexy. And… it’s in duet style! The back and forths are well done. An audiobook not to miss!

Ok so I've read or listened to all the books in the series and I previously read this story and have now listened to the audiobook. What can I say- this book is hilarious. The photo is perfect in how I think about Zeus. He's a massive hockey player and what I loved the most is how many times he screwed up while trying to impress Joey. I also adored how strong and smart Joey was and how she bested Zeus in everything, leading to SO. MANY. LAUGHS.

This book was funny, sweet, and we got to catch up with or meet many of the characters from other books in this world. And this is a fun world, filled with weird but lovable people that just make you root for them. And Zeus, he's one of them- because even though he's one of the best hockey players in the world. he still is a puck-up. And the laughs are non-stop.

I have the ebook and the audiobook and the audiobook is in duet style with Jason Clarke and Erin Mallon. The narration is amazing- there's a reason Jason Clarke and Erin Mallon are two of my favorite narrators. Jason Clarke is perfect as Zeus but I have to admit that I loved it when he played Manning, the hockey playing Prince (the accent- sigh). Manning's story is next (Royally Pucked) and it is just as enjoyable. I'll be listening to that audiobook next and I can't wait. If you're looking for laughs and swoons along the way, this is a great book with a fantastic narration team.

Love this series!

I absolutely loved this book! This is now one of my favorite rom-coms. I will definitely be listening to it again. I smiled and laughed through the entire book. Narration was fabulous and I loved the characters. If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. I 100% recommend this book if you are looking for something fun and sexy to listen too.

This is the second time I've read/listened to The Pilot and the puck-Up and I loved it just as much, if not more than the first read. The Pilot and the Puck Up is the second book I ever read by Pippa Grant and revisiting it now, after I've read all of them all. The audiobook version isn't as funny as the ebook but I still laughed out loud in parts. I adore Joey and Zeus and the enjoyment that always accompanies Pippa Grant's books.

On the narration: I loved the duet narration. I'm not usually thrilled with Erin Mallon's narration style. Generally she has a vocal-fry that drive me nuts. However, she doesn't do this nearly as much in The Pilot and the Puck Up. Maybe because of the type of narration or maybe something else but I truly enjoyed this narration.

I received this audiobook for free from the author. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Love Zeus and Joey

I read this one with a box of tissues. But not for the reason you are thinking. I laughed so hard on so many occasions that I actually cried tears of laughter. These characters and the situations are just spot on. The sports side of this book is well balanced with the rest of the story.

Another great addition to this fabulous series. There's plenty of hilarious situations as Zeus tries to break down Joey's emotional barriers only to discover a personality as strong as his own. Just love all the characters from previous books in the series and the narrators did a fabulous job of bringing all the characters to life. I heartily recommend the whole of this series ❤

I can always count on a great listen when I pick up a Pippa Grant book. But this one really hit home with me. Zeus Berger is a huge man, demanding on the ice and can find women anywhere. Now he has met his match with Joey Fireball, the one woman who sees him, and gets him. But will he charm her enough to win her heart? I could not get enough of this book. I love romantic comedies, and yes, this one made me laugh out loud. What I found really endearing about this one though was Zeus. He is so lovable, and so big, and while not clumsy has that feeling of tripping over himself just to be near Joey. Joey is feisty, smart and ambitious but Zeus is getting under her skin. Joey is a model to all women and shows us how nothing is out of our reach. Does she have time to put into a relationship? This is a fun, easy listen, made my day full of love and laughter. Keep bringing them Pippa!

The narration team of Jason Clarke and Erin Mallon is epic for rom coms. They both have such great style, find the depth of their character and pull it out and have incredible comedic timing. This duet style was amazing and I loved every minute.

Funny and Romantic!
