Slapshots & Second Chances

Slade Fisher had it all-a supportive family, a brotherhood of teammates, love, fame, talent, and the captaincy of the Silverwood Snipers.

Then, one week before Christmas, a fire took everything from him.

His longtime girlfriend, Jessica Anderson.

Their unborn child he never knew existed.

The future he was about to propose.

Shattered by grief, Slade walks away from hockey, from Silverwood, and from those who love him, disappearing into a haze of alcohol, empty nights, and self-punishment in a coastal motel hundreds of miles from home.

Two and a half years later, Slade returns to Silverwood with scars he refuses to heal-and a heart determined to stay frozen. Rejoining the Snipers means facing his past... and the twin brother who now wears the captain's "C."

What he doesn't expect is Noelle Hayes.

A quiet barista with a gift for comfort in a cup, an aspiring writer with a gentle strength, and his sister's best friend, Noelle challenges everything Slade has buried. As Christmas approaches and old wounds resurface, Slade must decide if he can risk loving someone new-or if holding on to grief is safer than hoping again.

Because sometimes the hardest comeback isn't on the ice...

It's opening your heart to a second chance.

Slapshots & Second Chances is the first book in the Silverwood Snipers series-a heartfelt hockey romance about loss, healing, and the courage it takes to believe in love again.
