The night I met him in a Vegas bar, I didn’t know he would change everything.

I only knew that when he looked at me, something inside me cracked open.
That when he touched me, the truth I’d been running from my whole life finally caught me.

And when I woke up alone the next morning—no name, no goodbye—I learned exactly how dangerous wanting the wrong man could be.

Two years later, my NHL career is unraveling, my game is falling apart, and the Oakland Raptors bring in a new goalie coach to “fix” me.

Zane Christensen.

The man who disappeared.
The man I never forgot.
The man I never forgave.

Now I’m forced to see him every day—on the ice, in the locker room, inside my head. Every look burns. Every drill pulls me closer to a truth I’m still terrified to face: I was never straight. I was just scared. And Zane was the one who showed me who I really am.

But Zane isn’t just carrying our past.

He’s hiding something dangerous—something that could cost me my career, my team, and everything I’ve worked for. And if I let myself fall for him again, I might lose more than my heart.

Because some men don’t just awaken you.

They destroy the life you built to avoid the truth—and dare you to survive what comes next.

Puck Hard is book three in the Dirty Puck series. It is a second-chance MM hockey romance featuring secret identity, player/coach relationship, forced proximity, sexual awakening, hurt/comfort, and two professional athletes learning that the biggest risk isn't on the ice—it's opening your heart.
