Description
The Minnesota Mammoths' goalie just became her accidental roommate. There's only one problem: he's also the subject of her book — and he doesn't know it yet.
My sublet is a scam.
I'm standing in a Minneapolis hallway at midnight, soaking wet, down $1,800, and the apartment I rented doesn't exist. The man who answers 4B is shirtless, half-asleep, and way too tall to be looking at me with that much patience for someone who just pounded on his door.
Easton McKenzie is a professional hockey goalie. He gives me his couch for the night without hesitating. One night becomes a week. A week becomes stay until you find a place. He makes me coffee every morning — oat milk, three sugars, on the counter before I'm awake — and never once asks how I take it. He just knows.
I'm in Minneapolis to photograph the Anonymous Maker — a mystery craftsman whose hand-built furniture has the design world obsessed. No one knows who he is. I need him for chapter six of my book, and I'm not leaving without him.
Then I notice the sawdust on my roommate's sleeves. The closed door at the end of the hall. The joinery on his coffee table that matches every piece I've photographed across town.
Oh.
Oh no.
Now I'm sharing a bathroom and a secret with the man I'm supposed to be professionally documenting. He lets me into the workshop at 2am to photograph his hands. He cooks for me after bad games without making it a thing. The line between subject and roommate blurred two weeks ago. The line between roommate and something else is blurring now — and he touches me like I'm something he built. Carefully. Like he already knows where I'll break.
I have a flight to Portland in eight weeks and a perfect record of leaving before anyone asks me to stay.
He has a perfect record of never asking.
We're going to be fine.
Shots and Saves is a standalone hockey romance in the Puck Bunny series.

reading this felt like stepping inside two minds at once but in the best way possible, you genuinely feel immersed into the book. it made the emotional parts so much harder because you feel like you’re apart of the characters, it hits hard but i dont regret reading this at all.
my first impression was a bit hesitant and i wast originally gonna read this but i kept browsing options but i was drawn back, the cover and the description were just so enticing i couldnt move on. i thought this was just gonna be like a cute little romance and partly it was but it was so much deeper than that. everything about it was really well executed and as you keep reading, it was like one minute i was just sitting in bed and the next it was as if i was sitting inside the characters mind and watching everything unfold in real time (which personally is one of my most favourite thing about reading).
And i’ve read more than a handful of books but i’ve never read a book quite like this one, the way the relationship develops feels incredibly delicate. both characters handle eachother with such intensity but carefully at the same time, and just really understand eachother. oh my gosh and this man is so gentle and just everything, he’s like the kind of guy to focus on the little things and it makes there connection feel so real.
theres a perfect balance of humour chucked into the book which never feels forced and just wholely natural. it just genuinely makes you smile while reading.and as the book progresses the character growth is so visible, you can see the both of them evolving and changing for the better.
overall, its a beautiful romance that has a perfect balance of delicacy,intimacy,and emotional depth.its the kind of story that sticks with you after finishing.
keep an eye out for this one, (out on april 15th) it’s definitely worth read.

I want to thank Netgalley for giving me an ARC.
I have no words to explain how much I loved this book. I devoured it. The writing was amazing, not rushed, and clean; no over-explaining, no dragging things just to extort emotions from the reader.
The book is about pressure, about risking it all, about fear of being a failure, about how it's worth to take risks in life, and how the actions define people.
As for the characters, they felt like real people, who make mistakes, hesitate and their way of thinking and acting makes sense. The relationships and characters are flawed, not perfect. It's realistic, which makes this book even greater. It doesn't sugarcoat life, it gives real-life scenarios.
At the same time, it felt as if I was inside two minds at the same time, which made me feel what the characters were feeling, I kinda related with them in some ways and cases, which again, adds the realistic touch.
