Slew Foot: An M/M Hockey Romance (Scoring Chances Series Book 3)

Rafe Moon asked to be traded to get away from his broken relationship with a teammate. He fled to Boston to start over. Determined to never see another teammate as a romantic partner but he did like Mikey's bossy caring attitude. Rafe being demi-sexual also brings different things into play.

He started telling Rafe where to be on the ice and it slowly developed into more. Mikey felt an instant connection to Rafe, and an overwhelming need to take care of him. These men fight their attraction to each other off the ice as much as they fight on the ice. Mikey suddenly develops a medical problem that can change his future forever. Rafe stands by his side supporting him through it all. While helping Mikey Rafe slowly realizes that there may be more than friendship between him and his new D Partner. Will these men give in to their feelings and see if they have the forever kind of feelings??

This is book 3 in the series but can be read as a standalone but if you like hockey romance I'd read them all. It's a great series. So far this is my favorite. Why? A extra large, lovable himbo ( though I like golden retriever better) The biggest guy is the little spoon. Slow burn The smallest of the two mcs is not really small either but he's really quiet....but he's the dominate one. I adore all these characters. The story has a very serious thing happen yet there is also a lightness. I guess Rafe's personality brings the slight humor and man oh man is he sweet. ( I want a Rafe...lol) Tanner Rafe and Mickey's roommate and best friend is a riot! Oh Mc 2 Mickey is German. I loved his bit of language issue ( I can't wait got the audio in this). He's the quiet, smaller if the 2 but not a little guy and the dominate. Mickey is sweet too. I adored these 2 together. The only reason I gave a 4 was it was a bit slow and I felt repetitive at tge beginning just s little then picked up. And a little personal thing...I read so much and another series I read has a lot of the same names like Asa that was another GM Logan the ex even Rafe and I got confused a couple times at the beginning but got it figured out.. (I didn't take off for that as it was strictly me but if you've read other series as well it could throw you off.) Now bring on Tanner.

The author knows how to tell a great story about people's lives... intertwined with a little spice ... I love how the characters from previous books work with the main character from this one... love the ups and downs of the players' lives.

MM Dual POV Third Person Hockey romance Demi rep Pan rep Care taking Sweet himbo Splash of kink Rating: 4/5 - I will probably reread this one 🌶️: 3/5 - there are a handful of explicit intimate scenes (and they are a little kinky) 🏒: 2.5/5 - there were a handful of hockey scenes but I subtracted 0.5 points for the slew foot only being a 2 minute penalty instead of ejection from the game TLDR: soft, warm blanket I want to wrap myself up in forever First off, I don't think you need to read the first two books in the series to read this one. As always you'll enjoy the cameos more if you do. And really you'll want more Jesse, trust me. There is something about Brigham Vaughn's writing style that just does it for me. The books are pretty long but I never notice and I'm always ready for more. The relationships are just so sweet. Like a soft, warm blanket I want to wrap myself up in forever. They dynamic in this book is super interesting to me. The characters don't play the "roles" society would give them based on their age/experience and I thought that was really unique. Plus there is care taking! What more does anyone need? Ultimately, I'd recommend this book to anyone who likes gay hockey romance.

I like the series but this book was very slow for around half of it nothing major happens Also if your looking for steam this book is a bit low on that And the team as a whole is stunted through out the book Still if your into the series it’s an ok read
