Summary

There are three things I know about New York so far: everybody is late for something, nobody has a freakin’ clue what sweet tea is, and King Kong himself is still alive and well and has taken the form of a growly blacksmith named Mac.

This is no shifter story, and I’m not his prey, although I wouldn’t say no if he asked for a little taste. I’ve been saddled with interviewing with the beast to secure my new dream job in publishing, but his intense stares and monosyllabic responses are making my job impossible. I just need to get this over with and move on to navigating my new life and career. I’ve got this, right?

But my professional and personal challenges are proving bigger than I realized, and Mac might be the only one who truly understands this game. He’ll be my biggest ally if I let him, and the way he keeps saying my name makes me really want to let him. The thing is, this city is known for breaking hearts, and it doesn’t care if you’re the new girl in town or the beast who calls it home.

Game Changer is a slow-burn, stand-alone romantic comedy with an emotional punch.

I very nearly died listening to this one I’ve laughed so hard. The humour is amazing, the characters are so well written and the narrator was so very talented. There is just enough of everything in this book, drama, humour and oh so swoon romance.

This is a book that’s needed in your library a perfect laugh out loud book.

This is fantastic

Poppy James is the perfect amount of Southern sweet & sassy. She’s the kind of character you can’t help but love.

Mac is hot, broody, and even a dash of sweet.

These two make the perfect combination.
This story is full of laughs, struggles, & family!

Game Changer by Sylvie Stewart pulled me in from the very beginning. I loved how the author wrote the humor and the slow burn steamy relationship of Poppy and Mac. The story also has tender and tragic moments, laugh out loud humor, vivid imagery, and some endearing characters. Meg Price was fantastic with her performance. She was flawless in switching from a Southern Accent to one without, and gave the characters distinguishable voices. I found Poppy to be a feisty and compelling character, who moved from Savannah to NYC, yet kept her quirkiness. This book truly is amazing! I loved it.

I thought the characters were cute and the storyline got more complex throughout the book, which I really liked. I would have liked to give it 4.5 stars. I loved the creative similes. They added humor to the story and illustrated the events or feelings in greater detail.

This is the first time I've listened to something narrated by Meg Price. She did a great job bringing emotion (or stoicism in the case of Mac) to the characters.

Cute stand alone

This story has much more depth than others I have read from Sylvie Stewart. Mack's personality is very withdrawn from experiences in his family life, whereas Poppy seems to be his total opposite, bright and breezy with the determination to succeed in her new job in New York. It is enthralling to see them develop their relationship despite the obstacles that come along. The narrator did a fabulous job of bringing all the characters to life and I highly recommend this book.

Different but just as enjoyable
