Synopsis
The new goalie is a secret prince. Red white and royal WTF?!
As the Prince of Ardenia, I don’t want for anything – except freedom. Freedom from bodyguards and media scrutiny. Freedom to love who I want without bringing shame to the throne. So when I get a chance to live incognito while on a trip to America, I take it. It’ll be my royal rumspringa. I can be Nick, not Prince Nicholas. Then I meet a plumber named Hank. I’m instantly attracted – my kink for big-gutted American guys who drink beer fully activated. I join his local hockey team as their backup goalie…and secretly hope Hank and I can get freaky off the ice, too. Yet in between one-on-one practices, wild bar crawls, and lazy afternoons texting about Christmas movies, our easy camaraderie deepens into crackling chemistry. The only thing standing in our way is the tiny matter of my real identity. I’m due back in Ardenia on Christmas Eve, but the thought of getting on the palace jet without Hank makes me royally blue. I’m not sure if the king—or the entire world—will get on board with the prince and the plumber. Can I get the crown and the guy? I’m hoping for a Christmas miracle here.
King of the Crease is a funny, spicy MM romance featuring secret royalty, a lovable single dad, teammates-to-lovers magic, 90s references galore, and lots of Christmas charm. It’s book 3 in the Comebacks series but can be read as a standalone.
