Ryker has been acquired by the San Francisco Shockwaves in the expansion draft and is excited to be able to spend more time with his daughter. As the hockey season takes off, he needs help with his daughter when he is on the road and his sexy neighbor steps in to help out.

A very low angst and entertaining read. Ryker and Avery have an instant attraction to each other but take their time acting on it. I really liked the relationship between Ryker and Ellie (his daughter) and the relationship Avery and Ellie developed and how the three are able to come together as a completely supportive unit.

My first Samantha Lind book and will not be my last. I am looking forward to more in the near future.

Ryker is the first book in the San Francisco Shockwaves series and is a sports (hockey), neighbors-to-lovers, single dad romance told in the dual first-person point of view.

As Avery and Ryker’s relationship becomes more serious, Ryker is considering a permanent future with our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative without the use of over the top,sexually graphic language and text.

RYKER is a story of family and friendships, relationships and love. The premise is heart warming and engaging-there is absolutely no conflict, no hardships to overcome, no outside interference or threats. The characters are energetic and dynamic but their development is limited due to the lack of any struggle; the romance is seductive and energetic.
