#NewRelease #BookReview ~ Mr. Broody by Piper Rayne ~ #SportsRomance #Hockey ~ @PiperRayneRocks @valentine_pr_ #BookTwitter


Mr. Broody by Piper Rayne is now live!

About the Book:

I’ve loved Henry Hensley since I was seven years old. We’ve gone from best friends to lovers to nothing.

To most people, he’s the Chicago Falcons starting right winger and hot single dad, but to me, he’s my first boyfriend, my first kiss, my first love.

Eight years ago, that all changed when our lives took us in two different directions. Our break-up almost broke me, so I kept my distance until our hometown called me back to where our story began.

I promised myself a quick visit to help my family out, and then I’d leave town before he even knew I was back, which should have been easy. He’s way too busy being a professional hockey player and raising his son to ever find out.

Of course, I’m only in town for a week before I run into him, and one thing is clear from our brief encounter—Henry wants to hash out our past, whereas I’d rather forget it.

But my plan really goes up in flames when I take a temporary substitute teaching job, and on day one, his son walks into my classroom. Boom.

My Review:

Mr. Broody is the second book in The Nest series by Piper Rayne. This story features Jade and Henry. They were connected at the hip from the age of seven until after college and Henry was drafted to Minnesota. Jade went her own way, leaving Chicago and only coming back home recently to help her mom and step-dad. The reconnection between Jade and Henry cause a tidal wave of repressed feelings to bubble over for both, but they have different lives now.

Jade and Henry are amazing! And don't get me started on Bodhi! He stole my heart from the very first time he's on the page. This book is so sweet, heartwarming, and emotional. There's steam, but also love. This book is emotionally rich not just between Jade and Henry, but anytime Bodhi graces the pages. Everyone loves him so much and his POV chapters are so cute! 

I loved everything about the story, the characters, the new setting, and the romance. I love how the authors created a story that flows well, pulls you in, and keeps you engaged. The writing style and story took my breath away.

I might have teared up a little bit in a couple places...

Ice Ice Maybe by Rich Amooi ~ #RomCom #Romance #ContemporaryRomance #Hockey ~ EnterTheGive@way

Ice Ice Maybe
Rich Amooi
Publication date: September 24th 2024
Genres: Adult, Comedy, Contemporary, Romance

“I want you to date my daughter.”

Those seven words hit Nolan Reid like a puck to the head.

Once destined for NHL stardom, a skiing accident left Nolan driving the Zamboni for the San Diego Sea Lions. But his humble life of maintaining the ice is about to get complicated.

The billionaire owner’s insane plan? Nolan fake-dates his daughter Zena to ignite her ex’s jealousy. The twist? Said ex is the team’s star player, and his green-eyed monster apparently fuels goals.

Suddenly, Nolan’s navigating a minefield of pretend kisses, all-too-real feelings, and death glares from a human sequoia oozing enough testosterone to give him secondhand chest hair.

With sparks flying, the playoffs looming, and her ex itching to use him as a toothpick, Nolan is playing a high-stakes game of Jealousy Jenga that could crumble any moment.

But for a shot at love with Zena? He might just risk it all.

Ice Ice Maybe is closed door, fake-dating, opposites attract, forced proximity, hockey romance with humor, heart, and loads of romantic comedy fun. No third-act breakup.

#Review ~ Walk of Shame by Avery Flynn (The Downside of Dating, Book 2) ~ @AveryFlynn @entangledpub @valentine_pr_ #SportsRomance #Hockey



Walk of Shame by Avery Flynn is now live!


One night. No strings. And a really good puck.

Five years ago, Astrid O’Malley experienced the ultimate in public humiliation. Being dumped at the altar by her childhood sweetheart was horrifying enough. That fact that he was a professional hockey goalie and her dad was his coach? It was all anyone in sports could talk about.

Eff hockey. Eff goalies.

These days, Astrid lives a life (mostly) free of hockey and free to pursue whoever she wants with exactly zero shame in her game. Like tonight’s hook-up. This guy’s nailed the lumberjack aesthetic perfectly. Especially when he has the stamina and creativity to back it up.

Because the rule is: it’s one night only. Which is gonna be a problem because she’s just discovered he lives in the apartment upstairs.

And he’s joined her dad’s team. As the goalie coach. To train her ex.

Now Astrid is in some kind of hockey hell–filled with her ex, her family, and the best sex of her life. And somehow she’s been roped back onto the team.

Puck my life.


My Review:

Walk of Shame is the second book in The Downside of Dating series.

Walk of Shame is a fun romantic comedy. I fell in love with both Astrid and Cal. They are fantastic characters individually but put them together and they are extraordinary. The chemistry and steam is off the charts. The snark, competitiveness, and genuine affection between the two mains was enjoyable to read. I loved watching Astrid and Cal's love story unfold.

Walk of Shame is a cute romance between two unsuspecting characters. One was burned by a hockey player and hardened her heart. The other was consumed by hockey. They thought their lives were great until he walked into her bar, then they realized was great really meant.

The book is perfectly paced, well-written, and the setting and world-building expertly crafted. I devoured Walk of Shame because once I started reading the book, I was hooked and couldn't put it down.

Avery Flynn is a one-click author for me. Every book is phenomenal. The themes, settings, and multitude of characters are unique, likable, and imperfectly perfect.

I was provided a copy of this book.

Release Blast ~ Only One Kiss by Natasha Madison @NatashaMAuthor ~ Only One Series #Hockey #Romance


Release Date: September 1

From USA Bestseller Natasha Madison comes a brand new Hockey series The Only One.

About the Book: 


Ralph 

Being traded to Dallas was a dream come true. I had everything I wanted, my game had never been better, and my wife was due to have our baby any day now.

What could go wrong? 

Everything. 

I was now raising our baby on my own. After hockey practice and games, I didn't have time to sleep, let alone make sure my social media was up to par. 

I never thought I'd get a second chance at love. 

Candace 

When my hotshot brother was drafted in the NHL, he didn't have time to do his social media, so I took over for him. Little did I know it would become my career. 

My plate was full with over fifty NHL players, and I wasn't taking on any new clients. 

Yet when he showed up on my doorstep with the cutest little girl in the whole world, I couldn't say no. 

I was just helping, but it turned into more than that. He's the man I've been waiting for. 

All it takes is one touch, one night, one chance, and only one kiss.

Meet Natasha Madison: 


When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. 

You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. 

It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...
