Trayvon Carter can make anyone laugh. Anyone except the cynical, pink-haired waitress at his favorite pub. For years, his smoothest lines have earned him a flat stare and the check. He keeps coming back anyway, because one look from her, even a glare, is the highlight of his week.
Known as Hartford’s ice queen, Andi Wells has her reasons for guarding her heart and brushing off the hockey player’s relentless cheer. She's been burned by that kind of sunshine before.
But when they rescue an abandoned puppy behind the pub, dismissing Carter gets a lot harder with a burrito-sized pooch squirming in his giant hands. And when Andi and the pup need a place to crash, Carter wastes no time offering his spare room.
Her one condition? He stops flirting. That means no ridiculous pet names, no pickup lines, and absolutely no dimples. They're roommates, period.
Without the one-liners to roll her eyes at, Andi can't stop noticing the sweet, ridiculously attentive man. It doesn’t help that he traipses around in nothing but a towel, flashing abs she'd happily eat dinner off.
Roommates aren't supposed to fantasize about knee-buckling, headboard-banging sex with each other. Carter’s been doing it for years, and Andi is running out of ways to pretend she isn't catching up.
Long Shot is a spicy forced-proximity hockey romance with a golden retriever underdog hero, guarded heroine, and scorching chemistry.
Book 4 of the Skate Me Home series. Can be read as a standalone.
