Hockey With Benefits by Tijan is now live!

Hockey with benefits. That was what Mara proposed, and I was down.

She said no feelings and she meant it.
Just benefits. No strings attached. Nothing else. Not even friendship.
College was her escape, including us.

I didn't have time for a girlfriend.
I had classes, the team, my family, and the game.

It was all working too...

Until somewhere down the line, things got messy.
Until somehow we were dealing with threats, secrets, rivals, and so much more.
Until I began to want her in ways that weren't part of the deal.

Our agreement didn't just get checked into the wall, it got obliterated.

Caroline's Review
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

What a fab read! Scorching hot, gritty, and emotional.

"It was useless. I was addicted to her, and it was becoming more. Same for her or she would've kicked me out in two seconds tonight."

Cruz Styles and Mara Daniels had a great not-friends-with-benefits arrangement. Mara also had rules in place that Cruz wasn't allowed to break, but she finds herself breaking them all on her own. The more rules she breaks, the more cracks appear in her high walls. Cruz seems to have it all going on - he's the golden boy of Grant West's hockey team. However, he has his own demons to contend with.

"He was so inside me that I hadn't realized how inside he was, but now I was seeing him and feeling him, and he was mine."

This story gripped me hard. Mara had a ton of baggage. She was a ballsy, take-no-prisoners girl, who wasn't into flaunting herself but go plenty of attention anyway. I loved how she stuck up for herself and wasn't afraid to deal with people how she saw fit. She was supremely confident but not arrogant - purely because she didn't care. But Cruz....oh my word. No matter how hard she tried to deny it, they were more than just an arrangement. She knew it. He knew it. They had a constant frustrating push-and-pull, and I loved that he called Mara out and made her admit that there was something more to their relationship. I loved that he understood her and saw through the facade she put up for the world. There's a lot going on in this story with lots of characters in play - some I recognised from other Tijan books - but you just need to go with the flow and get stuck in. Following Mara and Cruz's relationship as it evolved from something simple into something more complex, as well as Mara realising that so many people cared about her was enthralling and pulled on my heartstrings. This was an absolutely scorching read, as well as gritty and emotional. Loved it!
