Publisher Description
Bain Hillridge is new to the Titans and he’s building relationships with his new team, both on and off the ice. If only he could keep his hands off his teammate’s little sister.
I loved playing for the Arizona Vengeance but I’m stoked to be part of the legacy the Pittsburgh Titans is building. A team that has risen from the ashes, I’m eager to help them achieve their goal of winning a championship. I’m also looking forward to becoming part of a new hockey family. A night out with my new mates introduces me to the little sister of our goalie, Drake McGinn, and I’m powerless to resist her.
Keira and I have an instant and insatiable attraction and it doesn’t take long before we find ourselves tangled up in one another. While Drake has declared his sister off limits, I’m not deterred because I always go for what I want. I refuse to heed Drake’s warnings and take great pleasure in goading him every chance I get. It’s become one of my favorite hobbies, outside of making his sister scream my name.
As things with Keira get hotter, feelings start to develop making it a little more complicated than we intended. But a bucket of ice-cold water is tossed on our relationship and we’re forced to reprioritize everything. Neither of us were looking for more than a hot fling but fates get twisted all the time. Faced with tough decisions, Keira and I know that no matter what choices we make, our lives are never going to be the same.

What a ride!
OK, what an emotional story! Keira and Bain do not want a relationship and yet, when they meet they can't seem to have enough of each other. These two friends with benefits are burning down the house with their sizzling chemistry but when things start changing, they have to consider that they might be in a relationship or go back to being friends with benefits and nothing else. As their story unfolds you start to see the changes in them as they open themselves to be honest with each other. I loved the roller coaster ride that this story brought me on and looking forward to more to come.
4.25stars-inviting and edgy
4.25 stars--BAIN is the ninth instalment in Sawyer Bennett’s contemporary, adult PITTSBURGH TITANS erotic, hockey romance series focusing on the Pittsburgh Titans professional hockey team. This is Bain Hillridge, and oncology nurse Keira McGinn’s story line. BAIN can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. Some of the events of BAIN cross over with, and run parallel to the events of CAMDEN.
SOME BACKGROUND: Several months earlier, a devastating plane crashed claimed all but three members of the Pittsburgh Titans hockey team including owners, coaches and staff. Rebuilding the team, owner Brienne Norcross, offered positions to one-time professional and semi-pro players. These are their stories.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Bain and Keira) BAIN follows the forbidden romance and relationship between our story line couple. Keira’s brother is the Pittsburgh Titans Goalie Drake McGinn, and the other half of team owner Brienne Norcross. Drake has made it his mission to warn the players away from his younger sister but the attraction between Bain and Keira is immediate and intense. Agreeing to a ‘friends with benefits’ arrangement, Keira and Bain keep their relationship on the down low until heart break threatens their tentative hold on their burgeoning affair. What ensues is the building relationship between Keira and Bain, and the potential fall-out as words said in anger push Bain out of Keira’s life.
The world building continues to focus on the Pittsburgh Titans professional hockey team: their friendships, their relationships, their families, their losses. As Keira and Bain struggle to keep from crossing an invisible, neither one is willing to admit there is more to their relationship than they could have ever imagined.
The relationship between Keira and Bain is a friends with benefits that quickly turns into something more. The entire team has been warned away from our story line heroine but Bain wants Keira, at least for now. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting characters including several member of the Pittsburgh Titans hockey team: Drake and Brienne, Camden and Danica, as well as the introduction of Bain’s mother and father.
BAIN is a story of family, friendships, relationships and love; an over-protective brother, an independent sister, and a hockey player who is hoping for something more. The premise is inviting and edgy ; the characters are adventurous, charismatic and captivating; the romance is seductive and provocative.
