Perfect for you if...

  • You love grumpy athletes who soften around the right person, especially when there's genuine emotional stakes beyond the romance.
  • You're drawn to small-town settings where everyone knows your business and community matters as much as the central love story.
  • You want hockey world details that feel authentic, mixed with single parent representation that goes beyond the surface.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer standalone romance where the hockey element stays background flavour rather than core to the plot and character arc.
  • You're not interested in stories where a child is central to the emotional machinery, as the kid's presence shapes major plot decisions here.
  • You need your grumpy love interests to stay grumpy throughout, rather than showing genuine vulnerability and growth.

About this book

A former NHL player returns to his hometown after a knee injury ends his professional career. He takes a coaching position with a peewee hockey team, hoping to eventually return to the sport that has always defined him. When Ramona King, a single mother and the best friend of his almost-sister, enters his life, his carefully constructed plans become complicated. She is off-limits for multiple reasons: her connection to his family and the fact that her son plays on his team. Despite his resolve to keep his distance, he finds himself drawn to her and unable to walk away. A Scoring Chance is the first book in the Portland Timberwolves series. Each book in this small town professional hockey series stands alone and concludes with a happily ever after. The story contains sensitive subject matter and is recommended for mature audiences.
