Available on All Platforms

Michael Boone has just one goal: to get traded to his hometown team so he can be closer to his family. But when a runaway bride who happens to be his coach’s daughter jumps into his car to escape Mr. Wrong, the heat is on ... in more ways than one.

Boone

I’m supposed to be a guest at my coach’s daughter’s wedding to a player from another team, but instead I find myself helping her escape it. The timing couldn’t be worse—I have to stay in Coach’s good graces to secure the trade I need. But when the sexy, newly single redhead with legs for days shows up in my life again, I can’t say no.

Jolie

After escaping marriage to a man who made me feel like I was never enough, I plan to focus entirely on completing my dissertation. Science has never let me down—I can avoid emotional entanglements by focusing on cold, hard data. But when I’m powerfully drawn to a man who is warm and, okay, I’ll admit it—also hard—all bets are off. Mr. Right Now is exactly what I need, until both of us find ourselves wanting the one thing we can’t have—more.

USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.

A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible.

Kat's been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article--a review of a rock concert--for $10 in 1985. Since then she's been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.

As you can guess from her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...

Hard Hit (St. Louis Mavericks Hockey #4) by Kat Mizera & Brenda Rothert Review

Hard Hit : A St. Louis Mavericks Hockey Romance by Brenda Rothert
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Kat Mizera & Brenda Rothert are on a winning streak with HARD HIT (St. Louis Mavericks Hockey #4). St. Louis Mavericks Hockey star Michael Boone needs to stay on his coach’s good side, so he could be traded to Nashville. Being the getaway driver for the coach’s daughter, Jolie Gizzard, at her wedding, was not the way to go about it.

I like Jolie. She is a microbiologist. She feels her father always wanted a boy. Michael is a good guy. He wants to move back home because his brother, Andy, has cancer. He wants to be able to help take care of Andy and his family. Plus, he’s watching his sister’s four-year-old son, Joey. He is a good family guy.

Michael and Jolie get to know each other better while they are coaching a hockey camp for underprivileged kids. In addition, Jolie is one of the people helping take care of Joey while Michael travels with the team.

HARD HIT is a heart-warming read. It is skillfully written. It is a wonderful addition to the St. Louis Mavericks Hockey series. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Excerpt

My hands come up from between us, so I can get a hold of the sides of his face. I turn it this way and that, looking him over from every angle. “Who are you, and what have you done with my a—”

I choke, realizing what I’m about to say in the same instant that Bowie must, because then we’re both laughing. His forehead presses against mine, and I close my eyes just giving in to the relief of sharing a single, stupid butt joke.

Slowly, our laughter eases and we catch our breath.

When my eyes open, they meet his.

And it hits me just how close we’re standing. How long I’ve been in his arms. How my hands are still touching his gorgeous face, my thumb brushing over his cheekbone.

What am I doing?

What are we doing?

His brows draw together, and slowly, his stare drifts lower, down to where my chest is pressed against the solid muscles of his chest. Then back up to my parted lips.

God, I can feel the heat of his stare like a touch.

Time seems to stretch, wrapping around us, closing us into this moment away from the rest of the world.

And then it’s like maybe time doesn’t exist at all. Like all the years and all the frustrations and all the bickering have been wiped away, and it’s just the two of us, here, together.

And I can’t let another breath pass without giving in.

Pushing to my toes, I brush my mouth against his generously full lower lip, sighing at the softness, and kiss this man I’ve been dreaming about kissing for what feels like my entire life.

Release Date: April 20, 2023

Cover Design: Najla Qamber Designs

Cover Model: Chase Roback

Bad-boy hockey player Hayden Harrington always lands on his feet. Or skates, in this case.

After a scandalous fling with the coach’s daughter comes to light, this good-looking hotshot forward is swiftly traded to the Atlanta Thunder—an up-and-coming new hockey team.

It’s not all bad, though.

This could be his big chance to play center on the top line.

So yeah, maybe it’s fortuitous that the pesky team marketing intern, Addison Knight, let his secret out.

Still, though she’s hot as sin, he’s happy he’ll never have to see her again.

Or will he?

What Hayden doesn’t know is Addison just landed a job with the Thunder too. And what it involves is spending an exorbitant amount of time with him working on rehabilitating his image.

Ha, like that’ll go well.

Hayden is an enemies-to-friends love story and the first book in the new Breakaway Hockey romance series.

S.R. Grey is a USA Today Bestselling Author of the popular Boys of Winter hockey books and Men of Fall football novels, as well as the upcoming new hockey romance Breakaway series.

BLURB:

Puck boy? I’ll take it. Heck, I’ve been called a lot worse.

Good time? You know it. Just ask anyone at Brooks University.

From a young age, the only thing in life I’ve ever taken seriously is hockey, and I’m not the guy who anyone—besides family and teammates—can count on. This is all true. At least until a certain curly-haired, blue-eyed goddess comes to me, looking for an easy hookup. And hook her up I do.

But what’s supposed to be a one-night stand doesn’t stop at one night. What’s meant to be easy … sure as hell gets complicated fast. And it becomes clear that Addison LaConte is just as much my savior as she is my demise.

They say if you love something, set it free, and if it’s meant to be, one day, it will return.

Well, I don’t think our story is going to be that simple.

 ABOUT HANNAH GRAY

Hannah Gray spends her days in vacationland, living in a small, quaint town on the coast of Maine. She is an avid reader of contemporary romance and is always in competition with herself to read more books every year.

 

During the day, she loves on her three perfect-to-her daughters and tries to be the best mom she can be. But once she tucks them in at night--okay, scratch that. Once they fall asleep next to her in her bed--because their bedrooms apparently have monsters in them--she dives into her own fantasy world, staying awake well into the late-night hours, typing away stories about her characters. As much as she loves being a wife and mom--and she certainly does love it--reading and writing are her outlet, giving her a place to travel far away while still physically being with her family.

 

She married her better half in 2013, and he's been putting up with her craziness every day since. As her anchor, he's her one constant in this insane, forever-changing world.

PUCK BOY (The Puck Boys of Brooks University #1) by Hannah Gray Review

Puck Boy by Hannah Gray
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hannah Gray lights the lamp with PUCK BOY (The Puck Boys of Brooks University #1). Wolves’ hockey star Cam Hardy and RN student Addison LaConte had a one-night stand. Cam cannot stop thinking about her. Then he sees her again at the rink.

Did I mention that Addison is a single mom and the coach’s daughter? Addison doesn’t have time to date. She needs to focus on her daughter, Isla, and school. Cam should stay away from her, easier said than done.

Hannah Gray does an amazing job with this story. The characters are likable and well developed, with the exception, of the antagonist, Nick Pelletier. I do not like him. There are interesting obstacles. The characters grow. I love how Cam is with Isla. PUCK BOY is heart felt and entertaining.

This is the first book that I have read by Hannah Gray. It won’t be the last. I loved her writing style. I look forward to continuing reading this series and some of her other books; especially the Florida East University Series that crossed over with this book. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

LENNY

Nick Miller is a legend in the making. The best college hockey goalie in the country and the best looking. He’s known for being a player on and off the ice, but hockey is his only love. That’s why I can’t fall for him. I need to keep my focus on my classes and not on the gorgeously handsome man that keeps popping up in my life and in my bed. I need to prove to all the men I’m just as good of a sports journalist,

not get my heart broken by an athlete. But the sweeter Nick is and the more I get to 

know him, the harder I’m falling.

NICK

Lenny Briggs is like no woman I’ve ever been with. The more I get of her, the more I crave her. She’s real, passionate, and just as ambitious as I am. Hockey comes first, it always has and she gets that.I can’t give her anything serious, but when all she wants is to be friends I realize how dumb I’ve been all along. I need her and I’m not letting her go.
