He's the hot, grumpy goalie I had a crush on in high school...and now I'm his live-in assistant.
After my ex crushed my dreams in the music industry, I’m done with getting my heart broken. Working as an assistant for an NHL player was supposed to be a breeze, but nothing about Jamie Streicher is easy. He’s an intimidatingly hot, grouchy jerk who can't stand me. The guy has a massive ego. Keeping things professional will be no problem, even when he demands I move in with him.
Beneath his surliness, though, Jamie’s surprisingly sweet and protective.
When Jamie learns how bad my ex was in bed, his competitive nature flares, and he encourages and spoils me in every way. The creative spark I used to feel about songwriting? It’s back, and I’m writing music again. Between wearing his jersey at games, rowdy parties with the team, and being brave on stage again, I’m falling for him.
He could break my heart, but it might be worth it.
Behind the Net is a grumpy-sunshine pro hockey romance with lots of spice and an HEA. It’s the first book in the Vancouver Storm series, and can be listened to as a stand-alone.
Tropes:
- grumpy sunshine
- slow burn
- boy obsessed
- pro hockey
- forced proximity (boss vs. assistant + roommates)
- spice coaching

JAMIE IS SUCH A SOFTIE. THE WAY HE SUPPORTED HER AND PUSHED HER TO ‘get back on the ice’ AND PURSUE HER DREAMS. I LOVE HIM. beautiful green eyed boy. his love for her was so strong and you knew deep in your bones he would do anything for her. i loved the way he dealt with his mum too, really beautiful!!
pippa was such a cutie. I’m so happy she learnt her true value and did what she wanted to do not what her parents did! jamie and pippa’s relationship was perfectly balanced in the way they were there for eachother. the setting was fun, hockey and forest walks etc, loved the little community of his hockey team and her sister tooo. AND DAISY IS THE CUTEST DOG. THE WAY JAMIE SAW HER AND DIDNT WANT TO KEEP HER BUT KEPT HER BECAUSE NONE OF THE SHELTERS WERE GOOD ENOUGH 😭😭 you know a man is good when he treats his dog right 🥹

I loved that Jamie and pippa were back in each other's lives after being in high school together and unknowingly having a crush on each other all this time. The idea of them building that relationship again and falling for each other was lovely. It gave big sow burn vibes.
Overall a great read and I am looking forward to reading more in this series and by this author.
