Wingmen

For fans of Heated Rivalry and the works of Elle Kennedy and Chelsea Curto, Wingmen is a rivals-to-lovers queer hockey romance in which veteran player Dustin Bennet and breakout athlete Elliot Rodriguez take on a bet to see who can achieve the highest body count before summer ends...but end up becoming more interested in each other.

Dustin Bennet used to be the fastest winger in the league. But at twenty-nine, with a busted knee, he has to slow down—and that's terrifying. Dustin wasn’t raised to quit. He was raised to win. Which means twenty-one-year-old Elliot Rodriguez is going to be a problem. Elliot just finished one of the most impressive breakout seasons on record, with a win that made every sports headline in the country: Elliot Rodriguez is the new Dustin Bennet. Dustin isn’t taking that lying down. So when they wind up doing their off-season in the same city, Dustin proposes a bet: act as each other's wingmen through the summer. Highest body count when the season starts in September wins. As the summer deepens, what started as rivalry becomes something else. And somewhere between the 2 a.m. drinks and the 6 a.m. workouts, they realize they’re more interested in each other than the bodies they’re counting. But Dustin is hiding something that's getting worse by the week. And Elliot has buried a loss that makes what he’s seeing impossible to ignore. Summer ends at Labor Day. What they’re building behind the closed door of Dustin’s apartment might not.
