Pucking the Grumpy Goalie
(2025)(A book in the Alpha Ridge Creek Hockey Romance series)
A Story by Engrid Eaves
The rink’s ice man and star figure skater? It’s laughable. But the most insatiable wildfires start where least expected…
I came to Alpha Ridge Creek for a break from the past and a new life. Instead, I got Aiyana Blackhat. A raven-haired goddess on figure skates who loves counting the ways she hates me.
I’ve given her plenty of material as a washed-up hockey goalie—‘Net Ninja’ to ‘Net Nothing’ in one fateful season.
The loser who traded Olympic ambitions for a Zamboni and sharpening the Desperadoes’ skates instead of their defensive line.
My dramatic fall from grace tickles my jaw-dropping nemesis’s sadistic side to no end… Something I know more about than most people.
You see, the rink’s silver-bladed sweetheart keeps dirty little secrets…the kind that she needs me to fuel. Which hasn’t helped my unhealthy obsession with her or stalking tendencies one bit.
All I know is a shake up’s coming, and if I play my cards right, I could secure everything I’ve ever wanted—respect, vindication, love. But when’s the last time tracking the puck earned me a shutout?
"Pucking the Grumpy Goalie’ is a steamy, small-town, enemies-to-lovers romance, featuring a grumpy French Canadian alpha hockey player and a flirtatious, spitfire Native American figure skater. Proceed at your own risk due to obsessive stalker vibes, a morally grey MMC, kinky power dynamics, spanking and permission, and enough pent-up tension to blow the roof off the rink.
If that’s your jam, grab your gear and prepare for steamy moments, fast-paced action, and sizzling chemistry guaranteed to leave you panting. In Alpha Ridge Creek, the Desperadoes aren’t just chasing the puck—they’re chasing love, and they always play to win!
