Unrivaled - (Hockey Ever After) by Ashlyn Kane & Morgan James (Paperback)

About the Book

When professional hockey players Max and Grady fall into bed together, it's just a simple enemies-with-benefits arrangement. After all, neither of them could fall for a rival player... could they?

Book Synopsis

People say there's a fine line between love and hate. If you ask Grady Armstrong, the line's as obvious as the one across the middle of a hockey rink.

So he can't explain why he doesn't walk away when his Grindr hookup--a guy who accused him of impersonating himself--turns out to be Max Lockhart, a rival player Grady once punched in the face. Apparently Max can goad him just as well off the ice as he can on it.

Max Lockhart showed up thinking he was going to expose a fake. Instead he hooks up with a guy who claims to hate him. And has a good time. A really good time. But that doesn't mean players from different teams can be together.

Max has always wished Grady would relax a little. When the season starts and Grady accepts Max's offer of help with finding someone to date for real, Max gets his wish. But he should've been careful what he wished for, because now that he knows Grady is a big softie under that prickly shell, he'd rather keep Grady for himself.

Grady only goes on a handful of dates before he realizes he has a lot more fun with Max. But he can't be falling for a rival player... can he?

About the Author

There were quite a few years in the middle there, but who's counting?

Morgan James is a clueless(older) millennial who's still trying to figure out what they'll be when they grow up and enjoying the journey to get there. Now, with a couple of degrees, a few stints in Europe, and more than one false start to a career, they eagerly wait to see what's next. James started writing fiction before they could spell and wrote their first (unpublished) novel in middle school. They haven't stopped since. Geek, artist, archer, and fanatic, Morgan passes their free hours in imaginary worlds, with people on pages and screens--it's an addiction, as is their love of coffee and tea. They live in Canada with their massive collection of unread books and where they are the personal servant of too many four-legged creatures.
