Hat Trick

A Captain-and-Rookie Age Gap Romance (Sin Bin Secrets #2)

De: Casey Whitlock

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Grant Sullivan does not lose control.

Denver’s captain built his career on discipline, composure, and a reputation no one questions. In a contract year, stability is currency. Leadership is leverage. One wrong move can cost him the C — and the next deal.

Then Tyler Bennett scores three goals in his debut.

The rookie is electric. Arrogant. Untouchable.

And completely unimpressed by Grant’s authority.

Grant benches him the next morning.

Not because he has to.

Because he can’t focus when Tyler skates.

What begins as discipline turns into tension.
What turns into tension becomes deliberate.

Late-night film sessions stretch too long.
Hands adjust hips during drills.
Power shifts. Control slips.

On the ice, they’re unstoppable.

Off it, they’re reckless.

When a blurry hotel photo leaks and management starts talking “behavior clauses” and “leadership optics,” Grant is handed a clean solution: protect the brand, sign the stability addendum, and eliminate the variable.

The variable has a name.

Tyler Bennett.

Tyler refuses to be hidden.
Grant refuses to be unstable.

Sleeping with the rookie could cost him everything.

Pretending he doesn’t matter might cost him more.

HAT TRICK is a high-heat, emotionally controlled MM hockey romance featuring:

• Captain × rookie tension
• Age gap power dynamics
• Contract-year pressure
• Locker room politics
• Explicit intimacy that shifts control
• Masculine heroes who compete as hard as they want

This isn’t about softening.
It isn’t about surrendering the game.
It’s about choosing someone when it finally costs something.

Leadership isn’t control.

It’s responsibility.

And responsibility sometimes means risking the image to protect the truth.
