DIRTY SECRET: A Slayers Hockey Novel Kindle Edition

I've had my share of puck bunnies, but this one was different.

Allie. The girl with the sexy, shy smile and the sweetest, wettest mouth I ever tasted. She blew my mind and then slid out of my bed without giving me her number. I knew I should forget the woman who ghosted me, yet for months, I searched the crowds, the streets...everywhere looking for her face.

Then, I got traded.

This new team hates me. Something about my chronic case of resting prick face and that fight with the captain when the season started. My left hook, his jaw. Yeah, we go back and not in a good way.

Coach says no more “confrontational BS” or I won't play. That's a hit my NHL career can’t take. So the plan is simple. Keep my head down and my fists checked.

There's just one problem.

I found Allie.

She's the captain’s little sister and even though my career depends on keeping the peace between myself and my teammates... I can’t stay away from the one woman I can't have.

As it turns out, neither can she.

Rough and Tough Hockey Player
Vaughn is fairly new to the Chicago Slayer’s and can’t wait for the end of the season. When he is traded or Oregon and he is out of Chicago. In the meantime, he has to keep his nose clean and put his history and dislike towards the captain aside for a little while longer.Natalie has had a ‘crush’ on Vaughn since they were kids. It isn’t until a night in Vancouver that she acts on it. Not telling Vaughn who she is they have one night together and that is all it was supposed to be.Until Vaughn finds out exactly who she is. He knows he has to stay away from her. He can’t risk one more issue or his trade will fall through. Or worse, he is done playing altogether. Natalie made it clear that she doesn’t date Hockey players.Is it possible for them to keep word? Are their feelings towards each other stronger than either of them planned?

5.0 out of 5 stars Spicy Teammate’s/Rival’s sister romance!!
Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2023

Dirty Secret is the first book in the Slayers Hockey series by Mira Lyn Kelly, featuring a spicy Rivals’s Sister/ secret romance for Vaughn and Natalie. They engaged in a hot one-night stand that left him alone and confused the next morning. When he gets traded later to the team captained by his arch nemesis, he runs into her again— Allie the girl he can’t stop thinking about. The problem? “Allie” is actually the Captain’s little sister! With sparks flying between them like it’s the Fourth of July and Vaughn’s career on the line, will they risk it all to be together for as long as they can?

This was a great way to start a series! It was relatively low angst and fast-paced, but there was just enough drama to keep things interesting. The world building was on point with plenty of compelling characters that kept the witty banter flowing and definitely had me laughing. The spicy chemistry between Vaughn and Natalie was scorching and guaranteed to make you blush, but don’t mistake Vaughn for a one-trick pony because he could be sweet too! Look out when he’s upset though, because he could teach a master class on the grumpy/broody trouble-maker on the ice!🔥 Natalie was just a sweetheart that I immediately felt for, and wanted her to find whatever she wanted outside of anyone else’s shadows. With 3 older brothers who all played all the sports, I knew how she felt. So I was rooting for her, even when she wasn’t thinking clearly!🥰 I love the dichotomy of a brother’s teammate trope with the twist of it also being his rival! That was fun to read! All the guys on the team, as well as her friend George, were really intriguing and will make great stories that I’ll have to add to my TBR!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

This was a phenomenal hockey romance! It had everything to make it a perfect read: likable characters, a great story, believable obstacles, and ALL THE FEELS!!!

Seriously, I fell hard, and I fell fast for Vaughn and Natalie! Their chemistry was insane! There were so many quotes of Vaughn’s that I highlighted that just made me melt! My favorite was when he told her that he noticed her. When Vaughn opened up to Natalie and told her about his dad and how he grew up, my heart absolutely shattered for him, for what he lost and what he never had. Vaughn will go down as one of my favorite characters ever!

I definitely was not a fan of Greg’s. In fact, everything he did just seemed to prove Vaughn right. As much as he meant well, he wasn’t putting his sister first or letting her make her choice.

I can’t wait to start on the next book! I’m dying to find out what happened with Quinn and George, because it’s obvious that something went down between them!!!

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest opinion.

3.0 out of 5 stars don't seem to be in the majority

DIRTY SECRET is a standalone book in a series. There are lots of colorful words and sexy scenes if that is an issue for you. It seems it is to be expected if the subject of the book is hockey. I'll be the first to admit I know ZERO about hockey. It always seemed to be so brutal to me so never had any interest in watching it on TV. I downloaded the book because I really liked the COVER. Not sure why others didn't as they didn't explain their opinion. But, to get on with the story. *****SPOILERS******

Vaughn is a terrific player. He has the reputation for being mean, tough, withdrawn and ready to fight at the drop of a hat. He needs to clean up his act or the team is going to drop him. His goal is to get back with his former partner and win the cup. So he is trying to stay out of trouble. However, while away at a game he sees a beautiful young woman and she just calls to him. They have a one night stand and she leaves before he wakes up the next day.

Natalie/Allie is the sister to a very popular, star of the team, hockey playing brother. Now here is where I had a problem. At 27 her brother dictates who she will date and when. Never a hockey player. Of course not because the brother is sleeping with every single woman in town and sometimes their mother. He doesn't want his sister dealing with those kinds of men.

At 27 her brother is telling her who to date. I just can't handle that. Good grief she is almost 30 years old and still having her brother dictate her life. Vaughn is crazy about her but since her brother is his mortal enemy he has to steer clear of her so there won't be any fights and he will show up as the bad guy. Bad press and it will be his fault because her brother is the hometown hero.

I really liked Vaughn but the sister, not so much and the brother not at all. I did quit reading. It just seemed to me the story was on and on and on about how hot they were for each other but how they had to live their lives because of the brother's hate for the man she is crazy about. Grow up.

In her defense, she didn't want to "date" hockey players, didn't want to have to follow him when traded, didn't want to pack up the house while he went ahead to the next team, etc. Guess what. The story of every married military family. Many times the wife is left at home to pack out and follow the truck to the next duty station, unpack and set up a household and he is already deployed or "working" and can't be there. Just something you do. But if you prefer to sit in one city for the rest of your life then your choice.

This book just wasn't for me. I'm sure hockey fans will love it as it covers a lot of game plays, etc. It seems sport romances are a bit different from other professions.

I was not paid for this review (obviously). I am not a writer nor do I know one. I am not kin to this author. I am a reader and this is my opinion. NOTHING more, NOTHING less. 3/29/2022.

A one-night-stand between Natalie (aka Nat to her friends and Allie to that guy) and Vaughn leaves both of them uncertain for months. When Vaughn gets traded to Chicago, where Natalie's brother and Vaughn's archrival Greg is team captain, their paths cross again. After learning that the girl he fantasized about is his nemesis little sister, Vaughn makes it his priority to show her how much he cares for her.
When their secret relationship accidentally gets known by her brother Greg, who spares no time to hit Vaughn twice, Natalie tries to stop their relationship altogether. Unfortunately they already fell in love and both are hurting quite badly.
After some time, Vaughn wants to know, if Allie is all right after Greg told him, she's in a new relationship. But that was a lie. Greg tries to hook Natalie with one of three of his acquaintances, but she's having none of that and it backfires because she and Vaughn get back together and finally confess their feelings.

This wonderful story of secret love, rivalry and uncertainties is really a fun read.
