Let's Do This

Shaw
Ever since we met two years ago, Eden Burkehammer has made everything better.
The big defenseman sets me at ease. He's a beast on the ice-brutal and physical-but when it's the two of us, he turns to me with these unexpectedly soft brown eyes. This gravelly laugh that makes my whole body smile. And yeah, I might have thrown a glance his way a time or two in the steamed-up locker room showers-you know, just curious.
But he's my best friend. My teammate. Roommate.
I don't want to mess with that. Just the thought of losing him sends a cold zap the full length of my spine. Besides, I've never gone there with a guy, and he's never given a single hint he has either.
Until one morning when I sign for his delivery. An envelope that contains something I never-in my life-would have guessed.
And, suddenly, I'm thinking about him in a whole new way.
Burk
I can't look at Shaw Keenan for too long. When he leans across my truck console, with that whip-quick smile, I get this catch in my throat and focus on the road. Or when he tips his goalie mask up onto his head, hair askew and a flush of adrenaline on his cheeks, I skate back toward the blue line.
I don't know why. My head's confused about a lot of stuff. Always has been. But what I do know is that I've never thought about anyone the way I think about him.
Especially when he steps through my doorway-in nothing but a pair of thin running shorts and that backwards pink ballcap he always wears-holding a package I ordered on a whim.
And he's looking at me in a way he never has before.
It's game over after that.


Let's Do This is a friends-to-lovers college hockey m/m romance with double first times, a flirty goalie, and a gruff defenseman willing to risk it all for his best friend.
