There is no playbook for situations like this.
Scoring Off the Ice, an all-new steamy, surprise single dad
romance with all the feels by Stacey Lynn, is available now!
Sometimes scoring off the ice leads to the greatest rewards.
I’ve had only one goal in life since I first strapped on a
pair of skates—make America’s pro hockey league.
I left Denmark. I made it to the top. Now, I’m determined to
be the best. No distractions. I eat, sleep, and breathe hockey.
Until my birthday when my teammates convince me to live a
little.
But living a little takes on a whole new meaning when less
than a year later I’m confronted with a crying baby on my doorstep, drooling on
a note that declares he’s mine.
Suddenly, I'm a single dad in way over my head.
There is no playbook for situations like this.
Luckily, I have Paisley.
My gorgeous neighbor, my long-time crush, and now—my savior.
She’s there any time I need her.
Helping. Guiding. Gazing at me with those green eyes that
make me feel capable of this after all.
With her at my side, I’m quickly learning there’s more to
life than winning a hockey game.
Johnaka's Review
“The unexpected, 5 stars”
Mikah’s sole focus has been on hockey his whole life. When a baby is left on his door step he doesn’t have the first idea about what to do. But his neighbor does. He’s seen Paisley in passing but he’s never met her until now. These feelings he has for her are they real or are they a product of this new life he’s trying to navigate?
Paisley has always thought her neighbor was attractive, but she’s not the type to just approach. When she hears a baby crying, she can’t help but check it out. Then when she realizes Mikah has no idea what he’s doing she offers to help if he needs it. Seeing Mikah as a man he’s attractive, watching him as a dad is ovary exploding. Will she be able to keep her feelings for him at bay or will she say screw it and go for the guy?
Lynn pulled me in with Scoring off the Ice. I enjoyed Mikah and Paisley. I wanted to punch Mikah’s baby momma. I loved how his hockey team rallied around him. I just enjoyed this sweet romance. If you love single parent/surprise baby romances look no further.

Excerpt:
“Who are you?” I don’t like calling her the woman. I’ve
wondered her name for months since she started appearing in that doorway so
close to mine.
She turns to me and in her arms is the baby. She’s holding a
bottle and the baby is drinking. Quiet little sounds come from it and she grins
down at the baby in her arms before tilting her head at me.
“What?”
“You. What is your name?”
“Paisley. Are you Mikah?”
She must want money if she knows my name. Perhaps she’s a
fan. A puck bunny—that’s what my teammates call the girls who follow players
and only want one thing from them.
“How did you know?” I wish she wasn’t so pretty. Sometimes
it hurts to talk when all I want to do is look at her.
She points to an envelope on the table. The note.
“It’s on the outside. I didn’t know if it was your name or
the baby’s, so I took a guess. Are you... are you okay?”
“A stranger shows up at my door with a baby in her arms,
saying it’s mine. How okay am I supposed to be?” I wander to the table while I
ask.
I’m surprised by her gentle laugh.
“I suppose this isn’t your typical Friday night.”
She is funny. If I didn’t think I might throw up, I might
laugh. No. This is not my typical Friday night. Mine are for resting. Not
life-changing drama.
I say nothing and grab the envelope. I stare at it for a
moment. Perhaps if I do not open it, I can pretend this didn’t happen. My
fingers shake as I tear it open.
The envelope is larger than normal and thick and I’m careful
as I pull out several folded papers.
The top one is the most important though as I instantly see
my name, written in scrolling black ink.
MIKAH,
His name is Angelo.
