The wait is finally over—Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Hope Mazzola returns to the ice with a brand-new hockey romance Shots on GoalMN Frosthawks.**Alois Müller is professional hockey’s favorite villain.The Minnesota Frosthawks’ veteran enforcer is known for brutal hits, wicked honesty, and a glare that’s started more headlines than the league will ever admit. So when a viral scandal threatens the team’s reputation, management gives him one last chance to clean up his image… or hang up his jersey forever. Enter Beatriz “Bea” Ribeiro. Brilliant. Unflappable. And the youngest PR strategist the organization has ever hired. Her first assignment? Rehabilitate the league’s most notorious troublemaker before he destroys the Frosthawks’ season. Simple. Except Alois Müller refuses to be handled. Managing him means babysitting a six-foot-four walking PR disaster with ice-blue eyes, a temper the league loves to hate… and a talent for getting under Bea’s skin like no one else. Unfortunately for both of them, the solution to his scandal is worse than the problem. A fake relationship. Suddenly Bea is stuck beside the one man who seems determined to drive her insane. Press conferences. Charity galas. Team flights. And one very convincing series of staged dates. The rules are Don’t fight in public. Don’t break the script. And absolutely do not start believing the chemistry. But the more time they spend pretending to be in love, the harder it becomes to ignore the sparks neither of them wants to admit are real. Because beneath Alois’s reputation is a fiercely loyal teammate, a devastating flirt, and a man who looks at Bea like she’s the only person in the room. Meanwhile Bea is trying to keep her career on track, keep the team’s image intact, and stop her extremely judgmental Selkirk Rex cat from declaring war on the six-foot-four hockey enforcer suddenly invading their lives. Now the entire league is watching. Their chemistry is trending. And the biggest lie they’ve ever told might be turning into the one thing neither of them can walk away from. Public Enemy #91 was supposed to be a media strategy. Instead, it might be the most dangerous play of their lives. Public Enemy #91** Enemies to lovers Fake relationship Forced proximity Workplace / forbidden romance Media scandal hockey drama Grumpy veteran enforcer hero Sunshine PR strategist heroine Protective hockey hero energy A judgmental Selkirk Rex cat who steals every scene And a love story that starts as damage control… and turns into something real
