Slam - E Davies - Bog

"I don't want to be the poster boy."
A distraction is the last thing hockey player Kevin Shaw, fresh out of university with a year to prove himself, needs. He isn't innately gifted, but he works damn hard to make up for it. But he can't say no when he's asked to train with a sexy friend of a friend. He wants to get better, grab a spot in the background, and squash the inconvenient torch he's carrying for his new friend.
Called up from the minor league, hockey player Matty O'Brien is secretly terrified he won't hack it. He loves living with his buddies and his dogs, but he's missing a relationship. He plays center forward, but he's always the wingman and never the center of attention. The way Kevin watches him makes him feel like the star player.
A spontaneous kiss sends them both scurrying for shelter, deciding whether they have room in their life for more than friendship. Locker room gossip is annoying for Matty, but could end Kevin's new career. When it's a choice between work or love, how can they keep both?
Slam is a steamy, stand-alone gay romance novel with a HEA ending and no cliffhanger.
