My life was perfect except for the occasional goat emergency. Then a charming French goalie with dimples turned my life upside down. Rude.

Marcy

I came to Maple Falls to rebuild my life with nothing but four pencil skirts and a broken heart, courtesy of my hockey-playing ex. I like numbers because they don't lie, and I like my quiet ranch life because it's predictable.

Enter Clément Rivière—the devastatingly charming French goalie who shows up shirtless to help with barn work, whispers sweet French nothings to our goat, and looks at me like I'm the only woman in the world. But I'm not the only one falling for his act—half the town's women are already under his spell, and I refuse to be just another conquest.

Clément

I traded Paris for small-town Washington to chase my big league dreams and restore a historic house that's trying to kill me daily. What I didn't expect was the town's brilliant, beautiful accountant who treats me like I'm a tax audit waiting to happen.

Marcy Fontaine sees right through my act and makes me want things I never knew were missing. But she's been burned by a hockey player before, and I'm running out of time to prove I'm different. There's a ticking time bomb inside me, and my career is on the line.

If I can't stay, we'll both have to decide if love is worth the risk—or if some dreams are too good to be true.

Goalie and the Girl Next Door is a grumpy-sunshine, wounded hero, fish-out-of-water hockey romcom in the Love in Maple Falls series. Add some goat whispering, sunrise kisses, and a guaranteed happily ever after sweeter than maple cupcakes and you have this sweet romance with all the heart and no spice.

Welcome back to Maple Falls—the small town where hockey players fall in love! This is a multi-author series of seven full-length books that could be read as standalones, but we think you'll enjoy them best in order.
