Publisher's summary

Publicly, I'm a sports hero. Privately…

On the surface, I've got it all. I'm the starting goalie and captain of the Colorado Bulldogs hockey team. I've got more money than I know what to do with. I can count an entire team of elite athletes as my friends. And according to the pundits, I'm an eligible bachelor.

That's the image everyone sees, but it's just a role I play, a part dictated by my career. So, those questions I have about why I don't crave sexual contact the way my teammates do, questions I'm afraid to ask with the world watching… I decided a long time ago it didn't make sense to look for answers until after I retired.

Then I ran into him.

Tripp is loud, obnoxious, and full of confidence. Some people find his sass off-putting, but not me. I find it intriguing, and I admire his ability to be himself, consequences be damned. Apparently, I also admire the way he looks, since my eyes seem to linger on him longer than they should, and when he sets his sights on me…

Waiting for retirement to explore who I am seems like too big a sacrifice, so when Tripp offers to help me answer some of those questions about myself, I jump.

I'm tired of pretending to be Mr. Perfect. Tripp and his playboy antics might be just the thing I need to figure out who I am outside of hockey. The only problem is everyone—including our mutual friends—sees him as a bad pucking influence.

Thor meets Tony Hawk in this bi-awakening MM romance about a serious hockey goalie, a bratty skateboarder, a dare involving cake, and a lesson in how to use joysticks—for video games of course.

Bad Pucking Influence is a queer romance featuring hockey players, not a hockey book featuring LGBTQ+ love. Fans of snarky playboys and gentle giants will enjoy this light-hearted, steamy yet touching love story. This spicy journey contains gay characters, same-sex romance, and themes of acceptance. It's written as book two in the Colorado Bulldogs MM hockey series, and while it can be listened to as a standalone, it's best enjoyed after book one.

Truly truly great ! A romance with a story

Loved that there was no break up, loved that the details were managed cohesively without needing to stretch my imagination , there was plenty of 🥵, the writing is thoughtful and sometimes sweet but not over the top. HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!
