The rink's ice man and star figure skater? It's laughable. But the most insatiable wildfires start where least expected...

I came to Alpha Ridge Creek for a break from the past and a new life. Instead, I got Aiyana Blackhat. A raven-haired goddess on figure skates who loves counting the ways she hates me.

I've given her plenty of material as a washed-up hockey goalie—“Net Ninja” to “Net Nothing” in one fateful season.

The loser who traded Olympic ambitions for a Zamboni and sharpening the Desperadoes' skates instead of their defensive line.

My dramatic fall from grace tickles my jaw-dropping nemesis's sadistic side to no end... Something I know more about than most people.

You see, the rink's silver-bladed sweetheart keeps dirty little secrets...the kind that she needs me to fuel. Which hasn't helped my unhealthy obsession with her or stalking tendencies one bit.

All I know is a shake up's coming, and if I play my cards right, I could secure everything I've ever wanted—respect, vindication, love. But when's the last time tracking the puck earned me a shutout?

"Pucking the Grumpy Goalie” is a steamy, small-town, enemies-to-lovers romance, featuring a grumpy French Canadian alpha hockey player and a flirtatious, spitfire Native American figure skater. Proceed at your own risk due to (safe) obsessive stalker vibes, daddy / good girl power dynamics, spanking, forbidden love, hidden trysts (NO cheating), and enough pent-up tension to blow the roof off the rink.

If that's your jam, grab your gear and prepare for steamy moments, fast-paced action, and sizzling chemistry guaranteed to leave you panting. In Alpha Ridge Creek, the Desperadoes aren't just chasing the puck—they're chasing love, and they always play to win!
