4 SMOOCHES!

SYNOPSIS:

Lucy Quinn loves hockey. What she doesn’t love? The latest PR stunt from her favorite team—a hockey romance book club designed to lure in more female fans. Pandering to so-called “thirsty” fans? It totally cheapens the sport.

The worst part? They’ve slapped Bennett Wilder—the infuriatingly cocky, annoyingly handsome star forward—on the cover of this PR disaster like he’s some kind of book boyfriend. Gross.

So Lucy does what any passionate, totally rational fan would do—she starts a boycott.

Bennett doesn’t love being the face of a book club, but, hey, it’s harmless fun… until he finds out some feisty, foul-mouthed superfan is trashing it, he’s intrigued. And maybe just a little bit turned on.

So, naturally, he makes it his mission to shut her up—with charm, persistence, and exceptionally skilled hands. And somehow, he always manages to make her forget why she was mad.

But as their very public rivalry turns into something much deeper, Lucy realizes one terrifying truth—she might just be falling for the one guy she swore to hate.

REVIEW:

Kendall Ryan effortlessly blends snarky banter and sizzling tension with a professional hockey storyline in the slowly burning, enemies-to-lovers romance, In My Hockey Era. Pro hockey player, Bennett, gets tangled up in his team’s latest PR stunt, and he comes face-to-face with Lucy, an unapologetic superfan who is not so hip on the team’s ploy to attract thirsty female fans. Their initial clashes crackle with wit and undeniable chemistry, but with every interaction, their public rivalry gradually turns into something much deeper.

Ryan masterfully builds their relationship from reluctant acquaintances to combustible lovers, weaving laugh-out-loud humor with electric attraction that makes every one of their encounters entertaining. Lucy’s spirited charm and Bennett’s gruff-but-tender exterior create a dynamic that is as heartwarming as it is steamy, while the hockey backdrop, and the nod to the book world, add an exciting layer of interest and camaraderie. Told with Ryan’s signature blend of sharp dialogue, emotional depth, and irresistible charm, this was an engaging love story that proves even the fiercest rivals can become the perfect team. Four smooches from me for In My Hockey Era by Kendall Ryan!
