Lynnie 
contemporary romance
I didn't have many expectations for The Graham Effect. I hadn't read an Elle Kennedy book before, but they keep popping
up in my "recommended for you" section and a few friends have been
reading these lately. When I was looking for an audiobook and saw that
one of the narrators for this was Teddy Hamilton (who narrates the ONE
Xander chapter in the Empyrean books), I figured I'd try it out as I was
eager to hear more of his voice.
Anyway, the book is a well-done college hockey romance - the characters were generally entertaining and acted age-appropriate. I was not prepared for quite how steamy this book was - I don't know why, I just wasn't. There was, to be blunt, a lot of sex as one should expect from young, athletic, horny people. There were also strong friendships, family drama and, once in a while, they even talked about school.
I was pleased that there wasn't any manufactured breakup in this book - once the characters got together, it was fun to watch their story unfold and see how they brought out the best in each other. I do think I'll read the next book in this series at some point as it involves secondary characters from this book that I also enjoyed.
If you're looking for a spicy, fun book - this fits the bill nicely.
Oh, and I did enjoy both narrators. As expected, Teddy Hamilton has a great voice & I enjoyed his range of characters and accents throughout. I also enjoyed the female narrator C.J. Bloom who did a nice job differentiating a variety of voices.
