One bet. One spark. One chance.
Gabe
I’ve spent years as the Warriors’ goalie, holding the line under pressure. But off the ice, my life’s a disaster. After dating too many men who only saw me as an NHL trophy, I’ve sworn off romance—until Brody skates into my life. He’s newly traded to the team, ten years younger, and carrying the weight of the world.
I should keep my distance, but every stolen glance, every unguarded smile pulls me in. A playful bet pushes me to take a chance with Brody, though I’m risking more than my heart.
Brody
Being traded to Buffalo was supposed to be my fresh start, an escape after my old team turned on me. Now, I have one goal: keep my head down so I can play hockey.
Enter Gabe: confident, relentless, and far too good at breaking through my walls. I can’t let myself want him. But when he’s around, I forget every reason I should walk away.
One spark turns into something neither of us can ignore. But will falling for each other be the ultimate win—or the one loss we can’t afford?
Net Bet is the second standalone in the fantastic Buffalo Warriors Hockey series. It features a bisexual defenseman with a traumatic past, a lonely goalie looking for love, and found family in the form of a nosy yet supportive hockey team. Packed with high heat, dirty talk, first times, forced proximity, angst, an age gap, and a hard-earned HEA, this story delivers all the feels.

Watching them fight for their relationship and ultimately find happiness together is perfection. The team's camaraderie brings humor, support, and warmth, while the hockey scenes add thrilling excitement—especially that game-winning goal.
Taylor and Harwood masterfully create characters you'll wish were your friends. Their genuine depiction of mental health is expertly handled.
Don't miss out on this audiobook narrated by Alexander Cendese. It's a blend of passion, emotion, humor, and unforgettable moments. If I could rate it higher than 5 stars, I would.

One of the MCs in this story suffers from PTSD-like symptoms (I can’t remember if it was described as a diagnosis). That’s as spoiler-y as this post is going to get, I promise.
During the pivotal resolution scene, the MC who doesn’t have PTSD symptoms forces the MC who does have PTSD symptoms into a situation that would almost certainly be deeply triggering, with absolutely zero sensitivity whatsoever given to how it might affect him. And the PTSD guy’s response felt all wrong (basically, “Oh well, I guess it’s time I get over it”). I understand that immersion therapy is a thing, but that is absolutely not what was described.
I don’t know how this scene could have done anything but drive a wedge between them, if for no other reason than the callous and dismissive treatment of his partner’s current battle with the demons from his past.
I’m usually pretty okay with suspending my disbelief, but this was so egregiously wrong to me that I could not get back into the story. The trauma was pretty central to this character’s development, so I thought it was a strange choice to just throw it away in the end. Even for tying up a loose end, this was handled really carelessly.
