Season's Change (Trade Season #1) by Cait Nary

Goodreads Link

A veteran hockey player and a rookie can't get away from each other—or their own desires—in this sexy, heartfelt opposites-attract hockey romance.  

Olly Järvinen has a long way to go. He’s got a fresh start playing for a new team, but getting his hockey career back on track is going to take more than a change of scenery. He’s got to shut his past out and focus. On the game, not on his rookie roommate and his annoyingly sunny disposition—and annoyingly distracting good looks.

All Benji Bryzinski ever wanted was to play in the big leagues, and he’s not going to waste one single second of his rookie season. Yoga, kale smoothies and guided meditation help keep his head in the game. But his roommate keeps knocking him off track. Maybe it’s just that Olly is a grumpy bastard. Or maybe it’s something else, something Benji doesn’t have a name for yet.

Olly and Benji spend all their time together—on the ice, in the locker room, in their apartment—and ignoring their unspoken feelings isn’t making them go away. Acting on attraction is one thing, but turning a season’s fling into forever would mean facing the past—and redefining the future.

Trade Season

Book 1: Season's Change

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Season's Change is a fabulous hockey romance by Cait Nary. 

Damn! I love this book. 

It's a super hot romance full of tension and steamy moments. 

A player falling for his roommate and teammate; what more could you ask for? 

For Benji, he discovers his bisexual side, with some feelings developing, and a super hot threesome sparking things further. Ollie meanwhile, has plenty of his own issues to deal with, including some past traumatic events. 

The writing is great, as Cait had me both laughing and crying at times, fully pulled into the emotions throughout. There are a bunch of secondary characters who add to the fun. Everyone is fabulous and easy to fall in love. I love a good sports romance and this one is just that. The sports parts of the story are well done, and I adore the relationship. 

Love it all! 

Season's Change is a must read the next time you're in the mood for a sports romance. Cait Nary will not disappoint in this slow burn, bisexual awakening gem.

The sequel is finally here! Shane and Ilya’s story, first seen in Heated Rivalry, continues in this long-awaited hockey romance from Rachel Reid.

"Everything you could want from this magnetic couple! A passionate, sexy, emotional sequel that grips your heart! Shane and Ilya forever!" —#1 NYT Bestseller Lauren Blakely, author of Hopelessly Bromantic

To the world they are rivals, but to each other they are everything.

Ten years.

That’s how long Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov have been seeing each other. How long they’ve been keeping their relationship a secret. From friends, from family…from the league. If Shane wants to stay at the top of his game, what he and Ilya share has to remain secret. He loves Ilya, but what if going public ruins everything?

Ilya is sick of secrets. Shane has gotten so good at hiding his feelings, sometimes Ilya questions if they even exist. The closeness, the intimacy, even the risk that would come with being open about their relationship…Ilya wants it all.

It’s time for them to decide what’s most important—hockey or love.

It’s time to make a call.

Book 1: Game Changer
Book 2: Heated Rivalry
Book 3: Tough Guy
Book 4: Common Goal
Book 5: Role Model
Book 6: The Long Game

My Rating - 5 Stars!

The Long Game is a fabulous addition to the Game Changers series. I love this Rachel Reid romance where we get more of Shane and Ilya from Heated Rivalry.

If you follow sports, you know how tough it is to be an out and proud professional hockey player. This beautiful story perfectly conveys the reasons to sometimes stay closeted, while also tugging at your heartstrings with the unfairness of it all.

Shane and Ilya have been together for ten years. And they're still hiding their love from the world. Their connection is solid and strong, and is well worth the read. 

This is a romance full of hockey, rivalries, sneaking around, and a whole lot of emotion. The chemistry and passion jumps off the pages. And the ups and downs, including the pain of being apart during the season, are felt throughout.

The writing is great, with a compelling storyline and charming characters. Both men are fully brought to life making it easy to fall in love with them; especially Ilya. You just have to love the Russian player. 

The Long Game is a wonderful addition to the Game Changers series. I adore every moment of this Rachel Reid romance and highly recommend it when you're in the mood for a sports romance. 

RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW - MF - Deking the Beauty (Metros Hockey #3) by Crystal Perkins

 

Deking The Beauty by Crystal Perkins is now live!

From author Crystal Perkins comes an all new fake relationship, older brother's best friend romance set in her Metros Hockey Series.

Santo

I'm the "beauty" of the Seattle Metros. The nice guy who always has a smile for the media and the fans. Until I have an "off day" at an event. Coupled with some on ice accidents, I go from fan favorite to pariah. To help my image, it's suggested I tone down my playboy ways and at least pretend to be in a serious relationship. Even if that fake relationship is with my best friend's little sister.

Nita 

I've been in love with Santo since he was the boy next door when we were growing up. He's never seen me as more than his best friend's little sister, but now he needs my help. Being his girlfriend is all I've ever wanted, so a few months with him is like a dream come true. But, the dream turns into a nightmare when things become real between us, and he walks away.

With more than just the two of them to consider, can the Saint overcome his fears about relationships? And can Nita trust him to stay when she needs him the most?

My Rating - 4.5 Stars!

Deking the Beauty is the third book in the Metros Hockey series. This Crystal Perkins book is easily read as a standalone. 

There's a lot going on in this riveting read. There's brother's best friend, long time pining, fake romance, and plenty more. 

Nina and Santo make for a fun couple. You have to love Nina for standing up for herself, despite being head over heels in love with Santo. I enjoy the way they come together, with Nina helping to clean up his image. This is always a fun plotline and these two certainly didn't let me down. Of course, Santo has a lot to deal with, and doesn't always handle himself in the best manner. 

As for the show stealer, that has to be Nina's father. Omg, I absolutely love him!

The writing is great, the characters charming, and the storyline delightful. And you'll love the humor, which had me laughing out loud in spots. 

Overall, I love Deking the Beauty. I couldn't put this Crystal Perkins book down, reading it as quickly as possible. I highly recommend it the next time you're in the mood for a sports romance. 

Crystal Perkins has always been a big reader, but she never thought she would write her own book, until she sat down in 2014 and did it. She's now published over 40 books, and has been featured in several anthologies as well.

She lived in Las Vegas for over a decade, where you could find her running author events and winning bookseller. After moving to ND for over a year, she’s back in Vegas again. When she's not reading a few hundred books a year or chasing after her grandson, you can find her watching hockey (Go Knights Go!) and trying to find the perfect shade of lipstick. A mac and cheese connoisseur, she travels the world looking for the perfect version, while attending book conventions and signings as a cover for her research. Poutine research is also conducted regularly on her trips.

Crystal loves hearing from her readers, so please feel free to send her an email, Facebook message, or Tweet! She's also on Instagram, where you can see her monthly reads!

My Rating - 4.5 Stars!

Tutoring the Player is a riveting college sports romance. The first book in the Campus Wallflower series, I can't wait to read the rest of this Rebecca Jenshak series. 

This is pure fun and deliciousness! 

There's opposites attract, falling for the tutor, and plenty more. 

Daisy and Jordan make for a fabulous couple. She's the quiet wallflower, while he's the popular, life of the party athlete. They certainly don't seem like they'd make a good couple, but hot damn, they definitely do!

I adore the way their friendship develops, with all the nice getting to know each other moments. I enjoy the tension between them, and I love their chemistry together. 

Tutoring the Player is a perfect choice the next time you're in the mood for some college romance fun. As usual, Rebecca Jenshak will keep you entertained throughout with some humor, some heat, and a delightful storyline.

MF - RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW - Sneaking Around With #34 (Hockey Hotties #4) by Piper Rayne

 

Sneaking Around With #34 by Piper Rayne is now live! 

Amazon Link

Goodreads Link

I have a reputation for being tight-lipped. You learn quick when you become a professional hockey player to be guarded with the media, so I've worked hard to cover up the mistakes of my youth.

But when I'm traded to the Florida Fury, where my ex-best friend is the starting right wing, I'm forced to confront my past. Ford and I have a lot of history, especially when it comes to his little sister, Imogen.

My heart still lurches in my chest when I see her.
My hands want to reach out and touch her.
My mouth wants to keep apologizing.

She's the only woman who ever made me want more. But she's also the one who fell victim to my most regrettable decision.

I'm not a believer in fate, but I must be back in her world for a reason. I've fought for everything I've gotten and I'm not backing down from what I know will be the best thing in my life.

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Sneaking Around with #34 is a great sports romance by Piper Rayne. The fourth book in the Hockey Hotties series, this is easily read as a standalone. 

Warner and Imogen's story is one of second chances. They have a history together that's layered and he once left her heartbroken.  

Now they're reunited as Imogen starts working with the team. What follows is a journey towards forgiveness and another chance at love. 

Adding to the fun is a forbidden relationship element, as Imogen's brother will not approve of them being together. I love this aspect. 

The writing is great, with an easy flow and plenty of emotions. One can definitely feel the pain and regret, as well as the desire and want, throughout. 

Sneaking Around With #34 is a delightful read. I love every moment of this Piper Rayne. And I adore this entire series. Definitely check out this book, and series, when you're in the mood for a hot sports romance.

Hooking up with my best friend’s little sister is one thing, getting drunk and marrying her in Vegas is another…

My team just won the Stanley Cup. I should be out on the town celebrating. Instead, I’m nursing a broken heart, courtesy of my ex-wife.

Next thing I know, I’m waking up with my teammate’s sister in my bed wearing a rock the size of the Grand Canyon on her finger. Neither of us remembers saying, I do… but turns out the marriage is as real as the diamond on her finger.

The press is going crazy. The team is pissed. And her brother… well he just might kill me. So, at the advice of my agent, we do the only thing that makes sense—make a plan to stay married until this madness blows over.

It might have started out fake, but Gabby is the one making my dreams come true and showing me what real love is.

Now I just need convince her to stay my wife forever. 

My Rating - 4.5 Stars!

Dream Maker is the second book in the Las Vegas Vipers series by Stacey Lynn. It's easily read as a standalone and is a great addition to this sports series. And, damn, I am a total sucker for an athlete falling in love. 

This is a brother's best friend romance with an accidental marriage element. I enjoy the way things develop between them and the way things play out. 
They have a sweet relationship and end up balancing each other well. 

It's well written, with plenty of sweet moments and not much tension. 

Dream Maker is definitely worth a read when you're in the mood for a married in Vegas romance. Everything about this Stacey Lynn book, and series, has me smiling.
