Firebirds

A grumpy former hockey player and a bisexual coffee-shop owner refuse to commit-to themselves or each other-in this fun, flirty age gap sports romance. Piper Welborn has created a warm, welcoming space for all in her queer-inclusive coffee shop, even if the long hours came at the cost of her love life. But she's not ready to welcome one man in particular-a grumpy, muscular former hockey player. His smoldering presence is a temptation and a challenge to her long-standing vow not to date cis men. Gavin Williams has no business starting a relationship, least of all with a woman he's not sure even likes him. He can't resist the Friendly Bean's hot, pink-haired owner, but a casual fling is all he can commit to. He's hoping to leave town for the next stage in his career…if he ever gets the call with the job offer. A friends-with-benefits arrangement is perfect for them both-but neither is ready for the feelings that hit. When the post-hockey life Gavin always dreamed of is suddenly within his grasp, they'll both have to make a choice: hold tight to what they thought life should look like, or work together to build something new.

A messy PhD student and a hockey playboy fall for one another in this forbidden relationship sports romance. He's spent a lifetime putting up walls to protect himself, but he never expected one woman to break them all down… Between working multiple jobs and tackling her dissertation, it's hardly unexpected PhD student Murray Silva is a hot mess. What is unexpected? Tyler Valentine. When the hockey playboy and former-okay, current-crush shows up in her summer school class, he immediately becomes the kind of distraction she doesn't need. Want, however? That's a whole other story. Tyler Valentine understands pressure. He's faced it his entire career. Now that he's getting older, the pressure to figure out life after hockey brings him back to the classroom. And back into Murray Silva's life. The fact that she's his teacher and his team captain's sister-thus strictly off-limits-doesn't stop him from following his heart. Even though the last time he did that, it almost destroyed him. As their relationship heats up, a real shot at a future together seems possible…but only if Tyler can face down his past, head-to-head, and Murray can learn how to open her heart to love again-no matter how unexpected.
