His ego matches his talent. The San Diego Seals’ newest recruit is a cocky SOB. I shouldn’t want him. I can’t, not if I want to keep my job as the team’s PR manager—players are strictly off limits. Especially ones with a cheeky smile, soft blond hair I want to sink my fingers into, and a Texas twang I could listen to all night. Our chemistry is electric. His touch lights me up. It’d be so easy to get addicted to him; I think I already am. There’s no doubt I’m falling for his husband too. The grumpy rockstar’s on-stage persona is pure seduction. Off it, he’s even more potent with his black cat energy. He scares most people away with just a glare. But he’s a kitten around my foster daughter. Wanting them is easy, but we could never work. My divorce isn’t even inked yet, and my daughter needs to come first. Keeping them is impossible. So why can’t I give them up? Cocky as Puck is an MMF hockey romance with a cocky cinnamon bun hockey player, a grumpy rockstar, a pole dancing, curvy woman with a soft spot for her guys, ex-husband drama, a little girl in need of a family, and a black rescue kitty who knows exactly who her daddy is. CW: cheating (not in the main relationship), loss of a parent in a car accident, infertility, a messy divorce, ex-husband drama including emotional abuse and manipulation, and a child in the foster system.
Author
By day Ann Grech lives in the corporate world and can be found sitting behind a desk typing away at reports and papers or lecturing to a room full of students. She graduated with a PhD in 2016 and is now an over-qualified nerd. Glasses, briefcase, high heels and a pencil skirt, she’s got the librarian look nailed too. If only they knew! She swears like a sailor, so that’s got to be a hint. The other one was “the look” from her tattoo artist when she told him that she wanted her kids initials “B” and “J” tattooed on her foot. It took a second to register that it might be a bad idea. She’s never entirely fit in and loves escaping into a book—whether it’s reading or writing one. But she’s found her tribe now and loves her MM book world family. She dislikes cooking, but loves eating, can’t figure out technology, but is addicted to it, and her guilty pleasure is Byron Bay Cookies. Oh and shoes. And lingerie. And maybe handbags too. Well, if we’re being honest, we’d probably have to add her library too given the state of her credit card every month (what can she say, she’s a bookworm at heart)! She also publishes her raunchier short stories under her pen name, Olive Hiscock.
