About this ebook

Ex-lovers. Ex-rivals. New cohosts. Oh, puck.

The perfect read for fans of ICEBREAKER, BEHIND THE NET and RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE! This is your next sizzling sports romance addiction . . .

----

Cut from the US women's hockey team right before her third chance at gold, Natalie Carpenter is scrambling for a plan that'll help her avoid moving back home. The answer: a guest-hosting gig on Wake Up, USA's winter games coverage. Her cohost: Darcy LaCroix, Nat's ex-girlfriend, one-time college teammate turned adversary.

Since leaving Team Canada, Darcy has worked hard to make a name in broadcasting. If her big break requires sharing screen time with the former cocky freshman who turned her world upside down, so be it.

At this point, there's nothing between them except history.

But audiences disagree. #PuckingHotties is trending hard, and Nat and Darcy agree to lean into it – for ratings, obviously. It's not like Nat can forget the way Darcy broke her heart or their bitter team rivalry.

Between working, travelling together and that irresistible spark, it's getting hard to separate what's real and what's for the camera. Because somewhere underneath everything that went wrong is the sneaking suspicion that nothing will ever feel quite this right again.

Tropes/themes:

1. Second-chance love story
2. Sapphic-enemies-to-lovers
3. Queer romance
4. Slow burn
