BLURB:
Retired hockey star Jack Showalter is ready for a new taking over as head coach of the disastrous Abbotsford Grizzlies and turning their horrific season around.
Except Jack isn’t the Grizzlies’ only mid-season acquisition.
Blueliner Devon Jarvis just wanted a no-strings hookup the night before his first practice with his new team. He didn’t expect the silver fox from the app to be such an eager submissive. He didn’t expect to want more than a single, first-name-only night.
He definitely didn’t expect to walk into the locker room and recognize his new coach.
Now Jack and Devon are struggling to focus on hockey while the chemistry sizzles between them. They need to forget everything they did together that one amazing night. They need to pretend they didn’t get a taste of what they’ve both been desperate to find.
Yeah, right, like that’s happening.
REVIEW:
Gabbi Grey is a new author for me, but L.A. Witt has been an auto read foe me since she came onto the scene many moons ago. Throw in a good hickey story with a side of kink, and I was ready to rumble.
This story is about Jack, an older retired player, now coach, who learns he has a bit of a kink fetich when he has a hookup with Devon, who he later finds out is one of his players.
The two quickly decide they must cease and desist for the good of their careers, but the intense draw and chemistry has them giving in a bit here and there.
I loved watching Jack get to explore hos new love for kink and how Devon was the extra piece that made it all work for him. Turns out it isnt just any dom he needs.
I also enjoyed the power dynamics here. Jack is the older of the two, but Devon is the more experienced, at least where the kink is concerned. It was nice to see Jack helping Devon achieve that next level in his hockey as well. They really were both good for each other in different ways that balanced things out.
The hockey gets fairly technical in this story, and as a huge fan myself, I found that refreshing, and I never felt like it was too much. Very well done.
All in all, this was another winner for me, and I hope there is more to come from this writing duo.
