It had been love at first sight…or at least love at first sight of a toppling, glittering, unfortunately-shaped mascot.
Semantics.
Charlie had been spending time in San Francisco with his sister—who was a publicist for the San Francisco Gold hockey team. And by spending time with her, he meant he was licking his wounds and trying to pretend that he hadn’t just had his heart broken.
But it was really hard to pretend he was fine when he was surrounded by happy couples.
He didn’t know what the hell was in the water, but the freaking Gold seemed to breed happy endings like some people bred…horses? Hot house roses? A never-ending supply of hard seltzers in his fridge?
Whatever. The point was that he’d been alone and heartbroken…
Until that giant, glittering gold mascot had toppled over, its head falling off to reveal the woman within.
To reveal Kacee.

This book is part of a series but each book stands alone and is about a different couple. I have read some books in this series but not all of them. The series features friends, employees and family of a San Franscisco Gold Hockey team.
This story is about Charlie who works and lives in San Franscisco. He is home from a job he had in Hong Kong. He followed this boyfriend he had there. But he was very unhappy there and with the boyfriend and so he came back home. His connection to the Gold team is that his sister runs publicity for the team.
He attends a game with his sister and he meets Kaycee. Kaycee has a job where she is the teams mascot. It pays really well and she needs every penny because her ex stole every penny and furniture she had. She has a run in with Charlie and they end up being friends with each other. He is recovering from his ex who is stalking him a bit and she wants to help him with the ex. In return he ends up helping her too.
This was a very unique story in several ways. First, Charlie is a bisexual. He also refers to himself as a Beta and not an Alpha. This is very true. He is a great guy, very sweet and kind and giving but he is also very vulnerable.
Kaycee has no family but she has made some really awesome friends but she also has a lot of pride and so asking for help is very hard for her. She sees Charlie and realises he needs help and so in turn she lets him help her too and a wonderful friendship is born. This was a great friends to lovers romance.
I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
