My name is Ellie Troy, and my brother, Arden, would kill me if he knew what I was up to. I’m not even kidding.

It involves hot hockey player Nils Sten. He plays for the Atlanta Thunder and happens to be my overprotective brother’s best friend and teammate.

He’s also my secret crush.

Unfortunately for me, Arden wouldn’t approve of anything happening between me and Nils. Not now, not ever.

Too bad, because I’m going to make it happen—Nils will be mine, maybe for just one night of fun, or maybe for forever.

***

My name is Nils Sten, and hockey is my life. So much so that I haven’t had a serious girlfriend in ages. That’s okay; I find companionship when I need it.

And now it seems I’m about to have a whole lot of it. Not in any kind of a romantic sense. More in a roommate sort of way. See, my best friend and teammate’s little sister, Ellie, is about to move into my house. Yeah, under my roof…with a bedroom down the hall from mine.

God help me.

It’s all my fault, really. I opened my big mouth and offered for her to stay. Now I wish I hadn’t. Problem is, Ellie is beyond beautiful. She’s smart too. She’s really everything I’ve ever wanted.

Too bad she’s off-limits.

Now I just need to keep reminding myself of that…

Nils is the third novel in the bestselling Breakaway Hockey series.

NILS (Breakaway Hockey #3) by S. R. Grey Review

Nils by S.R. Grey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

S. R. Grey gets a hat trick with book three in the Breakaway Hockey series, NILS. Ellie Troy moves to Atlanta, Georgia to be by her NHL star brother Arden (Breakaway Hockey #2). She refused to move into Arden’s house since he recently moved in with his girlfriend Willow Knight. Arden's best friend and teammate, Nils Sten, offers for Ellie to move in with him. Ellie has had a secrete crush on Nils. However, Nils made a bet with a teammate, Finn, that he would not touch Ellie.

S. R. Grey does a marvelous job with this story. Nils and Ellie have great chemistry. They develop a strong friendship because of living together. They face some interesting scenarios. After a while, it gets difficult to deny their attraction to one another.

NILS is a heartwarming and entertaining read. The characters are likable and dynamic. NILS is an excellent addition to the Breakaway Hockey series. I am looking forward to Finn’s story next. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Available on all platforms!

My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend.

I went to the bathroom, came back, and…they were right there, sucking face in the middle of the bar like they didn’t have a care in the world.
And—
What could I do with that?
What I always do, I suppose.
Run.
Only this time I end up running straight into the arms of a big, gorgeous, bearded hockey player.
Leo West saves me from the floor of the bar.
But he also saves me from the boring loneliness of my life.
The only question is if he’s going to let me save him right back.

Blurb:

My whole life I’ve come out on top.

One of the finest players ever to grace the NHL? Check. 

Most prolific playboy with an enviable reputation between the sheets? Check. 

Award for the cockiest athlete in America? Also check, and well deserved I’d say.

So why does my life feel anything but the perfect image I project? 

And why won’t the one woman who came crashing into my life and knocked me on my six-foot four ass take me seriously?

She doesn’t even recognize me, let alone worship the ground I walk on. 

I’m in uncharted territory, tearing up my rule book and unearthing buried demons in my pursuit of her affection. 

I always get what I want in life but apparently Felicity Thompson didn’t get the memo. I want her in my bed, but all she offers me is her witty British tongue and no-nonsense attitude.

It isn’t supposed to be this way. She’s supposed to unravel for me. Yet the harder I pursue her, the more my own layers peel away. 

Felicity Thompson is fast becoming not just what I want but the very woman I need in my life, and I’m terrified to admit that when it truly matters, I might not be coming out on top after all.

🏒 Forced Proximity

🏒 Cam Girl FMC

🏒 Closed off Hockey Player MMC

🏒 “Good Boy”

BLURB

Some people would consider me an "F boy"…an "F girl?" "F woman?" 

The whole term is obviously sexist. 

Whatever, I’m a player I guess you could say. I like sex. I like having it, talking about it, anything. 

Growing up it was considered shameful, wrong, sinful. 

Now, as an adult I do whatever I want and don't care what others think. 

Which is what led me to camming. 

That led me to him. We have never met in real life. He doesn't even know my real name, but he's consumed my thoughts for years. When I'm forced to stay with the hockey player that once stood me up, I never expected him to be the man behind the screen. 

Or that finally getting to touch him would disrupt everything 

I ever thought about love and relationships, and that scares me more than anything.
