About this listen
The best way to gain confidence after years with the wrong guy? Hayden Owens—the hottest defenseman in pro hockey, my confident best friend, and my new dating coach.
He’ll teach me to be a player, but convinces me to practice with him.
We’ve been friends for years, but our flirting lessons and practice kisses push the bounds of friendship.
We’re roommates, but sleeping in the same bed.
He buys me a toy as a favor… but helps me use it.
All that relationship stuff he’s always avoided? He doesn’t seem to mind it anymore.
Rule number one of being a player is no attachments, but when Hayden sees me picking up other guys, he’s jealous enough that I wonder...
Maybe my wingman's been waiting for me all along.
The Wingman is a pro hockey relationship coach romance. It's the third book in the Vancouver Storm series but can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Hayden and adarcy had their work cut out ad the follow up act for Rory Freaking Miller. And while I will take my love for that man to my grave, Hayden and Darcy had me squealing!!! They gave me allllllll the girly romance feels and brought allllllll of the heat once they crossed that line.
Public Service Announcement... always close your browser before using your laptop in a bar 🙈
Gnomes, roses, lessons and true friendship. I loved this one so much. I loved seeing them both fumble their way through the realisation that they may, in fact, be more than just friends.
Hayden Owens... the man with the most animated eyebrows, the most flirtatious grin, and a heart of gold who sets out to remind Darcy that she shouldn't hide her light under a bushel. Weat the bright clothes, dye the hair, take the job. Do it all. For yourself. Because you deserve it!
Darcy Anderson... the sweetest woman, who doesn't even realise how much of her core personality has been chipped away, muted and dulled, by her previous relationship. Her world goes from greyscale to full colour after being back in Hayden's orbit.
Stephanie writes wit and spice and hockey perfectly. And again with no third act breakup! I love this woman. I've read all 3 of this series and loved them all and cannot wait for the next 2 books to come.

Hockey romance
Friends to lovers
I’ve noted re style of narration as I know people do have their preference , personally I don’t mind duet or dual I enjoy both.
I only discovered Stephanie book just over 12 months ago and since then I have read them all.
This was one that I was really looking forwarded to. Since meeting both character in the previous 2 instalments in the series I couldn’t wait to see how they finally revealed their feeling to each other.
Great plot and the duet style narration really works well .
If your looking for something with a great story, the characters build each other up , some amazing spice then grab those headphones and get listening

The groups dynamic as always had me laughing and loving all of them, I loved Hayden and Darcy’s inside jokes and the evident history there! Hayden was an absolute winner for me and the way he just wanted to give Darcy the world!
Another super one from Stephanie

I’d been waiting for Hayden and Darcy’s story, and The Wingman totally delivered! It has all my favorite tropes—best friends to lovers, forced proximity, and a little “practice dating”—all of which made it nearly impossible to put down.
I loved that Darcy is a math whiz and that she’s a book nerd and a people pleaser because I found it so relatable (not the math though, I am terrible with numbers hihi). Hayden’s character really sees her, especially the parts she tries to hide. Their friendship lets them open up, be vulnerable, and actually get closer, making their romance feel so genuine and heartfelt.
I also love that Hayden lives in Gastown. When I was a broke student in Vancouver, I lived out in Burnaby but spent most of my time in Gastown, working as a dishwasher at a local restaurant in the afternoons. Seeing glimpses of this town that holds so many memories for me made the story feel even more special.
I already can’t wait for the next book in this series!
loved it
