Penalty Minutes of Love: An M/M Slow Burn Hockey RomCom (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798281711326)

When love is on the line, these hockey players are headed for their biggest score yet.

In the high-stakes world of professional hockey, NHL rising star Jamie Edwards has mastered the art of keeping his personal life separate from his career. As a closeted player just finding his confidence on the ice, he's focused on one thing: proving he belongs with the Icebreakers.

Leo Mercer has his own challenges as the team's new social media coordinator. Being Howard Mercer's son means constantly fighting to prove he's earned his position through talent, not nepotism. The last thing he needs is a distraction-especially one with piercing blue eyes and a tendency to knock over equipment whenever Leo's around.

When they're thrown together to organize the team's "Hockey Is For Everyone" charity event, unexpected chemistry ignites between them. But with Jamie still cautious about being visible, Leo wary of workplace relationships, and a high-profile fundraiser hanging in the balance, they'll need to navigate more than just their feelings.

As game day approaches, three obstacles threaten their budding relationship:

• A rival player with a homophobic agenda
• The watchful eye of Leo's powerful father
• A career opportunity that could send Leo hundreds of miles away

For the first time in his life, Jamie must decide if he's brave enough to play with his heart on display. And Leo must choose between professional advancement and the man who makes him feel like he's finally found home ice.

Penalty Minutes of Love is a heartwarming MM hockey romance featuring found family, workplace romance, professional athletes, mutual pining, and a swoon-worthy happily-ever-after. This standalone sequel to Penalty Box of Hearts can be enjoyed on its own or as part of the Hockey Hearts series.
