Review: Grumpily Ever After

  Title: Grumpily Ever After  Series: Stick Taps  Author: Teagan Hunter  Release Date: January 20, 2026  Blurb:  An obstinate ex–NHL player meets his match in a cheerfully resilient wedding planner prone to chaos in this sweet and spicy romantic comedy about game-changing second chances.

She’s demanding, irritatingly optimistic, and quite possibly the pret...

Then one night I took control of my life. It was my first taste of freedom, and I wanted someone to notice me.  Turns out, that was a mistake, and my father had been right, I didn’t deserve to be seen.  A Lord—Kashton Landon Pierce—saved me, and I offered to pay him the only way I knew how—with my body. After he finished with me, I ran.  Now he’s ...
