Publisher's summary

Aleks

After my divorce, I’m ready to have fun, date around, and not get into anything serious. Then I meet Gabe Crosby, superhero firefighter and a disgrace to the Crosby name. He doesn’t even like hockey!

Yet, there’s a draw to him I can’t deny—something I haven’t felt since my teens. But that’s the problem. I have no idea what dating is like, let alone how to do it with another man. He makes me flakey and nervous, and I’ve never been that guy.

Gabe turns me inside out and upside down in the best possible ways. I only recently became single, but if I continue to chase after him, I might not stay that way for long.

Gabe

When I meet Aleksander Emerson during an emergency call-out, there are three things that catch my attention: his sexy tattoos, his kind eyes, and his drunken offer to have my babies.

He’s new to Seattle and recently divorced, so I take him under my wing–and under my sheets. I’m showing him what the world of hookups is like, only those hookups turn into sleepovers and dates and public displays of jealousy.

Aleks is in his casual era, and I’m working my way toward settling down and starting a family. What the two of us have is fun, but not a good idea permanently.

Too bad Aleks has already set my life on fire.

The collective strikes again!

I just can’t with these two authors! Just when I think they cannot top the last book, they do. They had my attention from the first chapter! I loved how new characters were introduction and the shoutouts to previous books! Jay Jackson fan! A teenage girl at a Harley Valentine Concert! Not to mention everyone in the collective and Big Bertha!

Aleks recently divorced and looking for his zing. Gabe, just moved into his own place, trying to be more independent.
Aleks and Gabe’s story perfectly fit them. It all started with the collective, a trip to a thrift store, a fire, and stripp…firefighters.

Another winner!!!

Aleks and Gabe were fantastic! From their not so cute meet cute to the very end, their banter had me smiling or laughing. This was a low angst book and the “issues” were resolved quickly and weren’t drawn out. This was a great addition to the collective and their cameos, as always, were epic. It’s great to see both Aleks and Gabe’s found family shenanigans and how they fit in so well!

Off the charts!

I laughed so hard a few times. These 2 are possibly a new favorite book couple! The supporting characters are so good! There are a few whose stories i need to know, so I seriously can't wait to see who is next. I have a good idea, but I will be "patiently " waiting.

Amazing!

Amazing as usual. I can't wait for the next one. Them dressing up was so perfect, I really wish we had visuals.

4.5/5

This growing, shared world that the authors have created is highly entertaining. The characters are funny and so relatable. I immensely enjoyed watch Aleks and Gabe fall in love surrounded by favorite characters from prior books and catching glimpse and falling in love with characters for future books. The authors seemed to have set up the next book in the series very smoothly and also creating a perfect segue into a standalone. These books are filled with humor, heart, and heat which are all of my favorite things.

Zing!!!

This book was so good. I got a lot of looks while cracking up in a Target bathroom while listening to the fire scene. My face hurts from how much this book made me smile.

Hilarious!

This crew is hilarious! So much love and brotherhood. Aleks and Gabe are the cutest! I’ve listened to books 1-5 over the last 5 days! I’m obsessed.

love it

I love this whole series but I think this is my favorite one yet I love the 2 maine Characters

Aleks and Gabe

𝐅𝐎𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐇 𝐏𝐔𝐂𝐊𝐁𝐎𝐘 is the fourth book in the Puckboys series by Eden Finley and Saxon James which is Aleks and Gabe's story.

Aleks and Gabe couldn't be more different if they tried. Gabe is a firefighter who doesn't do the sports thing but can't deny how attractive Aleks is when he ends up at his house for a fire call thanks to the Queer Collective which ends up being the beginning of Aleks and Gabe's adventure.

Aleks and Gabe have an instant attraction that is undeniable and as hot as the fires Gabe fights. I loved their "Battle of the Dates" that they had trying to one-up each other as they got to know each other and fall in love. A Puckboys book would not be complete without the Queer Collective and they definitely brought the laughs.

OMG!! I have not laughed so hard in a very long time. If you ever need a pick-me-up grab any of the Puckboys books as they will surely put a smile on your face. I can not wait for more from this series and these authors.

As always, Iggy Toma and Alexander Cendese were amazing, brought the characters and story to life, and are two of my favourite narrators.

Get ready for... mm, sports (hockey), firefighter, opposites attract, first-time dating, pansexual, and dual first-person point of view.

Gabe and Aleks are a Great Addition to The Series

I really enjoyed this story. Eden Finley and Saxon James are a fantastic duo together and so far every book from this series I’ve enjoyed as well as the series this one spun off of. Gabe and Aleks were so cute together. It was pretty much and instalust turned love story but it was written well so I found it believable, even though the famous hockey player and non-sporty firefighter didn’t seem like they would be the perfect pair on paper. They each had their own apprehensions but I liked how they didn’t let a lot of things fester, and the way they could open up to eachother. I really liked the cameos from The Collective too, I get so happy when we get to see glimpses of the earlier couples. I have to say Iggy Toma and Alexander Cendese did a fabulous job bringing these characters to life as well. All around a great story and great addition to the series.
