Clueless Puckboy (Puckboys #5)


Getting lucky and receiving an ARC of "Forbidden Puckboy" means I need to hurry up and caught up with the other two books in the Puckboys series I have on my TBR list. Here's book five (by Saxon James and Eden Finley): "Clueless Puckboy."

["Quinn
Straining my groin is bad enough. It puts my hockey career, my future, but even worse, my dignity on the line. Having to get massages in that area from Vance Landon, one of the team trainers, is mortifying. It’s impossible to hide my feelings toward him. If my constant blushing and bumbling doesn’t give it away, my body does. It’s getting to the point where I wonder if hockey is even worth the embarrassment.
Trying to avoid him only makes him seek me out more. He’s determined to rehab my injury, but all I want is for him to leave me alone. Or fall for me. One or the other.

Vance
Ayri Quinn isn’t your typical jock … except for the fact he refuses to admit when he’s injured. I’ve seen more than enough professional sportsmen lose the career they love due to injury, and I’m not having it happen again. Especially not when the guy in question happens to be the sweetest, most awkward, innocent jock I’ve ever met.
When a night out leads to Quinn re-injuring himself, I create a care plan that keeps me hands on, literally. Unfortunately, working with him in close proximity brings all those feelings I’ve been trying to ignore to the surface. I just need to get him better so he can be back on the ice and out of my bed. Ah, my massage bed. Because if this goes on any longer, I might mean my actual bed. Ayri Quinn is impossible to resist."]

Quinn is sooooooo fucking adorable!! Talk about a big baby bear of a hockey player who blushes and stutters every time he's around his crush (and having Asher Dalton as a bff certainly doesn't help (as we all know, that dude has zero filter and a mind permanently in the gutter)). He's a blubbery fool for Vance. I couldn't get enough. 

Vance was flattered...and conflicted. Though his slight stalking behavior and then 24/7 helping care of Quinn heal wasn't exactly a platonic choice on his part. Neither were his equally as adorable and discombobulating crushing feelings. But Vance insists on being "professional" (because that worked soooo well for Oskar and Lane ;) (still one of my favorite couples)). 

I looooooved how many of the other puckboys and Queer Collective members were in this! And how Eden and Saxon CONSTANTLY tie this series to their individually written series, how its all one big gay hockey universe?!?! Yes, please.
