Synopsis (Goodreads):
The women's league is in the house! And Brooklyn will never be the same again for Anton Bayer and the team…

This is my last chance to ditch my playboy reputation and finally fulfill my potential. So I’ve made three rules for our biggest season yet: no boozing, no women, and no scandals.

Especially that last thing.

So who do I befriend on the very first day back at the rink? An amazing female hockey player. I want Sylvie in a way that’s more than just friendly. I crave her. But I have a championship to win, and so does she.

Then she gets her heart broken by my teammate, and I make the foolish mistake of comforting her in the best way I know how. Our night together sets off a string of sins.

Nobody can know about our affair, especially my overprotective teammate. I can’t let anyone see into my greedy little heart. Not even her.

The things I want from her, and the things we’ve already done? If anyone knew, there’d be bombshells.

Contains: a defenseman with dreamy blue eyes, a female goalie with bad ideas, a major battle of the sexes and a swimming pool scene...
Thoughts on Bombshells: Okay. I'm spending time with the men (and women!) of the Brooklyn hockey clubs (plural!) and YASSSSS. Anton and Sylvie. They are FUN together.

I mean, they're fun and a little complicated thanks to one of Anton's teammates. Which makes for some VERY awkward moments for poor Baby Bayer. For Sylvie, too. You know, since she's struggling to hold onto that guttering torch for said teammate while falling HARD for Anton.

Yeah. Complicated.

Or maybe not since Anton's feelings can't be ignored (although he tries!) and Sylvie just straight up likes the guy who makes her feel a whole lot of things (sometimes annoyance, but mostly LOTS of other things). They're good together and they fit nicely. They just need to get over their little speed bumps on their road to happily ever after.

A whole lot of familiar faces (Bruisers!), a new slew of hockey players (ladies league! yasssss!), a lot of steam between the sheets, and a couple who are very right for one another once they get out of their own way. *thumbs up*
