Shutout (Rules of the Game Book 2)

Shutout is the second book in the Rules of the Game series. The narrator moves cross-country for sophomore year and ends up living with her older brother and two of his hockey teammates. She quickly discovers that Tyler Donahue, the goalie for her brother's team, is the tall, tattooed stranger she hooked up with on Halloween two months earlier. Both agree to keep their connection secret, especially since the narrator's overprotective brother would disapprove. She has no interest in a boyfriend, and Tyler's demanding hockey schedule leaves no room for a relationship. However, as they exchange heated glances, late-night texts, and stolen kisses behind closed doors, their casual arrangement deepens. The narrator begins to see a softer side of the broody goalie—someone who is gentle, protective, and giving. Despite her initial intentions to keep things casual, she finds herself falling for him.
