Defenseman for the Ravensburg Reapers. Professional pain in the ass. Lover of women. And, with the playoffs about to start, far too busy chasing the Cup to question any of it.
Then Santiago Vega walks back into his life.
Ten years ago, Santi was Matteo’s best friend—the boy with the camera, the wicked smile, and an irritating talent for getting under his skin.
Now he’s the photographer hired to follow the Reapers through the playoffs.
Which would be fine if he hadn’t gotten hotter.
Or more infuriating.
Or started calling Matteo cariño again.
Santi has a job to do, a camera in his hands, and absolutely no intention of making Matteo’s life easy. Matteo, meanwhile, would very much like to focus on hockey and pretend the past belongs exactly where they left it.
Unfortunately, ignoring Santi was easier when he was three thousand miles away.
With the playoffs heating up and old tension creeping back into every conversation, Matteo is starting to realize there are some things even the best defenseman can’t keep out forever.
Offside Angle is an MM hockey romance featuring former best friends, a sexuality awakening, playoff hockey, filthy banter, possessive tension, one extremely smug photographer, and a defenseman who would really prefer everyone stop asking him questions.
I just love all of these characters so much. I usually hate when other women are involved (especially with on-page smut) but like this didn't bother me? I actually even liked her a lot. The character development was well done and the romance was top tier. I loved it. Also love a femme top! Haha
