HAWKS

Last season, we lost two of our strongest players, and now we're really feeling that loss. With the new season coming up and fresh blood filling the spaces my friends left, I don't have time for the sexuality crisis rearing its ugly head.

But I can't get my mind off of the mysterious man I lost my virginity to when I was at my lowest point during the break.

Twenty six years without so much as a first kiss, and now I don't know what to do with this sudden onslaught of desire.

My head needs to be in the game, but it's hard to give it my all when a piece of me is still stuck replaying that night.

BLU

Taking that man to bed was a mistake. My heart isn't anywhere near ready to move on from Redley, and my body feels like a traitor, a foreign entity I'm forced to share a cage with.

I was hurting. He was hurting. Somehow sharing in each other's pain gave us both a temporary reprieve, but it isn't enough to put a dent in the never ending ache of losing my husband.

A year later, and I can't create. My emotional floodgates are blocked. But that one night with Mister Dark Hair and Hazel Eyes pours a symphony out of me. One I'm too scared to touch in fear of what I might discover.

I'm not ready to move on, but damn if each stollen kiss in ratty motel rooms doesn't put me one step closer to wanting to.

Penalty Shotis a strangers-to-lovers MM romance featuring an anxious, people pleasing hockey captain and a grieving, lone wolf musician who meet up to trade kisses and vulnerabilities in cities throughout the sports season.
