“For five million dollars, would you send a relative to jail?”
"Bud, I would pay five million dollars to send a few there."
Problem number one: Almost everything the world thinks they know about me is a lie.
Problem number two: Two people know the truth.
Problem number three: One of those two is a stalker and he's having a blast using that information against me to get his way.
The good news is, the second person who knows the truth about who I am seems pretty dedicated to taking my stalker down.
The bad news is, it’s NHL goalie Vanya Maximov, and he and I had a one night stand that I can’t stop thinking about. And while Vanya might be walking sunshine so bright he can make even my blind ass see light, we have no business being together.
I’m a mess, and while Vanya is everything I’ve ever wanted in a partner, he deserves better than me.
If only he was willing to listen to reason. If only he was less stubborn and able to give up on a lost cause.
But with his ability to give me exactly what I want—a little pain with my pleasure—and his refusal to treat me like I’m fragile, something dangerous starts happening.
I’m beginning to think that maybe—just maybe—he’s right, and I am worth everything he sees.
Hat Trick is the second book in the Punk as Puck spin-off series, Legends and Fury. It’s a high heat, friends to lovers romance with a sunshine NHL goalie who also might be a golden retriever in disguise, a PPHL goalie with big black cat energy, a stalker, and no faith in himself, hooking up in a friend’s car, praise and pain, high stakes romance, hockey bro banter, tons of chirping, and the swooniest happily ever after.

MY REVIEW
Micah thought his and Vanya's thing was a one off but he was very, very wrong, because now that he's had a taste, Vanya's not letting go of his pretty goalie. He has to tread a little lightly, though, because Micah's got a lot going on that he hasn't told anyone. He has a stalker, he has a lot of fear, and he has trauma thanks to his awful childhood. If Vanya has his way, though, he'll take on all of that and more for him, forever.
I've been eagerly waiting for Micah and Vanya's story and it was well worth that wait. Vanya is like this big, adorable teddy bear, down so bad for Micah. Micah made him work really, really hard for his heart, though, and it was that struggle where they, especially Vanya, proved themselves worthy of each other. I really like the author's different reps - disability, sexuality, and mental health. That's a lot of representation to manage in one story, but the author did a great job of it. Micah's a big mess, but he figured himself out with a lot of help from the various people in his life, and because of his own strength, but most of all because of his rock, Vanya. I wondered at times, if Vanya would ever tire of Micah's severe issues, or at least trying to help Micah deal with them, but nope, he was absolutely steadfast, in all the sweetest ways. I really like this hockey world the author has created with flawed, loveable characters in two hockey leagues. All the tension, the close proximity, the friends, the enemies, the strangers, falling in love. I'm not sure which hockey player is next to fall, but I can't wait!
