Baylor
Torryn Gray is bold, brash, and has a reputation that rivals even mine.
She should be terrifying, but I’m only intrigued, captivated by the way she doesn’t need to be the center of attention.
Coming off a season where my past exploits haunted me, I’ve vowed to be more careful about who I let into my bed. Someone who won’t distract me. Who won’t attempt to manipulate or take advantage. Someone like Torryn, who isn’t easily impressed. Who doesn’t care about falling in love or what I can do with a puck.
All I have to do is convince her I’m more than capable of giving her what she needs. Hint–it starts with o and ends with her screaming my name.I guess it’s a good thing I’m well known for my talent but even better known for what I can do on a mattress.
Torryn
There are three things that are important to me
My family
My best friend
My future
If it doesn’t help me protect or serve those things, I don’t have time or energy for it. I’ve barely managed to find time for fleeting moments of pleasure. But even those hookups are starting to feel like more effort than their worth.
Until my best friend drags me to a hockey house and I meet Baylor Levine.
Charming, outgoing, and playful, he’s convinced he can give me exactly what I need–all the rewards and none of the risks.
It’s all fun and games and twisted bedsheets until an unknown player enters the arena, making demands and following them with threats. As my stalker grows bolder, Baylor grows more and more protective. We grow closer until even our friends are starting to look at us sideways.
But haven’t they ever heard of friends with benefits before?

This book was delightfully addictive! I was totally on board for a friends-with-benefits hockey romance.
The author had an engaging writing style that I connected with easily. The plot was exciting and kept me wanting more. All the drama and twists had me hooked.
This book has squad goals for days! I loved all the friendships and bonds. The dynamics between the characters were so entertaining. The characters were original and complex. They were relatable with distinct voices. I loved how fleshed out the characters were. The main characters had backgrounds that added depth to the story. I adored the secondary characters and just wanted more of them.
Torryn and Baylor have similar reputations on campus and end up together for a night of fun. That only ends up turning into a friendship which turns into more. The relationship grew as time went by but the attraction was there from the start. I loved Baylor's protective nature when it came to Torryn. Their chemistry was undeniable and the steam was fantastic.
Overall, this was a brilliantly written college sports romance. The characters were memorable, the plot was compelling, and the romance was hot. If you enjoy your romance with a balance of emotion, smut, and humor then this book should be your next stop. I am really looking forward to the next book in this series!
