| New York Condors Hockey Book 1 |
Kai Mercer can read every shooter in the league. The only man he can’t read is guarding the opposite net.
As the starting goaltender for the New York Condors, Kai survives by controlling the chaos. He can anticipate a shot before it leaves the stick, but people are a different story. To calm a world that’s always too loud, Kai keeps his emotional armor locked tight. At least until an anonymous summer fling with a gentle stranger strips away all his defenses. He never even got a last name, but the quiet safety of those warm nights was exactly what he needed.
Until opening night of the season.
When Kai looks across the ice at the New Jersey Fury’s crease, his focus shatters. The goalie staring back at him is the same man who held him in the dark.
Oskar didn’t come to America to fall in love. He came to play hockey. But the unshakeable Swedish goaltender knows a rare shot when he sees one, and he has no intention of letting Kai disappear.
Every game pushes one of them closer to the championship they've spent their lives chasing, and further from the one person who feels like home.
Crease Collision is a high-stakes MM hockey romance featuring rival goaltenders, hookup-to-lovers, bisexual and neurodivergent representation, locker-room banter, high heat, and a guaranteed HEA. Crease Collision is the first book in the New York Condors Hockey series by the authors of the bestselling Buffalo Warriors Hockey and Bethesda Barracudas Hockey series.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
Kai never imagined what should have been a one time hook up turning into so much more. The moment Kai and Oskar meet, sparks fly. They both feel it. They know they shouldn’t want more. Yet, why can’t they stay away? The time they spend together is filled with laughter and fun, and both avoiding saying what their jobs are in favor of being normal for a bit longer. Because the truth is, both of them are professional hockey goalies. On rival teams. And neither know it. Not until they play against one another for the first time. But by then, it’s too late. Feelings have caught. And while Kai has done so much to keep his heart guarded after having it ripped to shreds because he is different, it’s still no match for Oskar. And for Oskar, he may have come from Sweden to play hockey in America and knows he needs to focus, but he also knows that how he feels about Kai is worth fighting for. Worth seeing where it can go or else he will always regret it. Being together may not be the easiest with their schedules and team rivalries, but when they are together, that is all that matters. Loved these two! They were utterly so sweet and perfect for one another. Balancing one another out so nicely. It may take them a bit to find their footing, but when it comes down to it, they are brave enough to take the leap. A great start to this new series for sure!
