Shooting for Santa: A Sweet Hockey Holiday RomCom

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

He’s the grumpy MVP with a reputation to repair, but when Santa Claus collides with his face, this hockey star might just score the most unexpected goal of his life.

Tessa:

As a freelance illustrator who fled the city to escape the spotlight, I’m perfectly content creating watercolor cards in my cozy Blue Ridge studio. That is, until a gust of wind sends my artwork flying—right into the face of Leo Dickinson, the Buffaloes’ brooding left wing with a reputation for avoiding both the press…and relationships.

When we’re paired to run the team’s “Letters to Santa” charity booth, I expect awkward silence from the notoriously quiet hockey star. Instead, I discover a secret bookworm who discusses watercolor techniques and notices details in my paintings that others miss. Between late-night cocoa conversations and snowflake kisses in the town square, our connection feels magical—until a viral photo threatens everything I’ve rebuilt.

With my private world suddenly exposed and old insecurities resurfacing, I have to decide if I’m brave enough to step into the spotlight for love. Leo might be shooting to get Santa to bring me everything I want for Christmas, but my nerves aren’t as strong as his.

Can I trust that he didn’t just get caught up in holiday magic, or will fear send me skating away from the most beautiful connection I’ve ever known?
