Publisher Description
In the high-stakes world of professional hockey, the heart plays harder than a power play.
Harper Crawford, a tenacious sports blogger with a gift for seeing beyond the scores, knows everything about the game, but nothing about guarding her heart.
When she's hired to be the official voice of the struggling Newport Beach Seagulls, she sees it as her shot at a career-defining move.
But that's before she meets Zachary Ryan, the team's newest center—a notorious bad boy both on and off the ice.
Zach, with his undeniable talent and devastating charm, is a man with a plan. This season is his chance for redemption, to prove that he's more than just tabloid fodder and to help pull his new team from the bottom of the standings.
But his fiercely protective nature is tested when he discovers that Harper, with her sharp mind and even sharper pen, is just as much a threat as she is a temptation.
Tossed into a world of locker room secrets and risky powerplays, Harper can't help but fall for the man she's supposed to be reporting on.
As the sparks fly, they find themselves on thin ice—professionally and personally. With everything they care about on the line, can Harper and Zach score a win for love, or will their romance end up in the penalty box?
Exes & Goals is the first book in a completed hockey romance series. It features an enemies to lovers romance, with a sharp heroine with a haunted past and an Alpha hockey player compelled to protect her.

I loved the book
Not gonna lie about this, the book was great 👍👌👍👍👍👌👍👌👍👍👌👍👌
Contradicting and 2D
This book (although an overdone concept) looked really cute. However the characters weren’t very flushed out and the story fell flat due to it not being much of a story at all. The number one issue however was the contradicting statements in the book. From small stuff like her wearing a dress one minute and a tank top the next and they just got worse from there. Also I kept thinking I was messing up and switching pages on accident because I kept reading literal paragraphs over again, but nope they were simply used multiple times word for word. Would not recommend.
Easy read
Very easy read. No cliffhanger. HEA. However, I have it 3 stars because the Bryan drama was leading up to something big and fell very short. After that the story seemed rushed.
