Downloading Penalty Shot (Playmaker 1)

Jace Hartley is hockey royalty—record-breaking winger, face of the Northgate Wolves, the kind of player who sells jerseys and fills arenas. He's also hiding secrets that could end injuries he won't admit to, a sexuality he's terrified to claim, and performance anxiety that's tearing him apart from the inside.

Grant Sutherland is the last-chance coach brought in to save a broken team. He's supposed to be building systems. Maintaining discipline. Keeping his professional distance.

He's not supposed to notice the way Jace's hands shake after a bad shift. The panic attacks hidden in empty locker rooms. The desperation in his eyes when he looks at Grant like he's the only person who truly sees him.

And Grant is definitely not supposed to want him.

But when the pressure reaches a breaking point, Grant makes a choice that crosses every line he swore he'd never cross. And somewhere between professional duty and something far more dangerous, the boundaries between coach and player begin to blur into something they can't take back.

The season is reaching its breaking point. The stakes have never been higher. And what started as protection is becoming something neither of them can control—or afford to lose.

They say you can't have everything.

But Jace Hartley doesn't know how to lose.

And Grant is done pretending he can walk away.
