Two cute kids, a cranky goalie, and a gingerbread house. What have I gotten myself into?
Joey and me? Let’s just say we have history. And no, it’s not the cute kind. We orbit in the same sphere of friends, so avoiding him is like trying to dodge a Zamboni in a hallway. At best we’re frenemies, but nothing more. When Joey’s sweet nephew asks me to help build a gingerbread house for a contest at his school, I’m all in. Baking for a competition? Who can resist? Hopefully his handsome uncle and I can set aside our differences for the sake of the contest.
Gingerbread and Goalies is Book 3 in the new Golden Stars Hockey Rom Com series. This short and sweet romantic comedy is filled with a delightful blend of hockey, romance, and humour and is a perfect lighthearted read for the beach, a cosy Sunday afternoon, or after the kids go to bed. There’s lots of snappy banter, swoony kisses, and laugh-out-loud scenes, but all are “kisses only” romances with a guaranteed HEA.
I used to despise this grumpy hockey star with a shattered image…
Now the banter’s fire, and he is scoring straight to my heart. My rule when it came to Logan Mitchell: stay far, far away. Now he’s the face of my shelter’s Adopt-a-Player campaign… and I’m supposed to survive weeks around him without losing my mind.
Turns out, beneath the gruff, all-hockey exterior, Logan has a sweet side. The more I see past the headlines and into the man himself, the harder it is to remember why I swore to keep my distance.
It all started as a way to fix his image. Now with the press spinning their own story, he might end up wrecking mine.
Taming the Grumpy Hockey Player, a sweet enemies to lovers romance, full of sizzling chemistry without the explicit heat. As an Amazon affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Stuck with my brother’s best friend makes my stomach churn!
Jason Rodriguez just stole my art studio space. Mr. Money Bags outbid me with no remorse.
Now my career’s on the line. He’ll give me another space rent free on one condition. Pretend I’m his girlfriend!
His arrogance and money-flaunting disgust me, and he has a reputation for being NO GOOD.
I go along with this masquerade, hoping to save my business. Yet the more we’re together, the more I see a new side to Jason.
He is gentle and kind, and he treats me like a goddess. I quickly forget I once hated him.
My brother thinks this is a dangerous game, and worries Jason will break my heart. But how was I to know he’d have this effect on me?
Looks like we planned one heck of a show, because even I’m thinking this could be real!
