A grumpy former hockey player and a bisexual coffee-shop owner refuse to commit—to themselves or each other—in this fun, flirty age gap sports romance.
Piper Welborn has created a warm, welcoming space for all in her queer-inclusive coffee shop, even if the long hours came at the cost of her love life. But she's not ready to welcome one man in particular—a grumpy, muscular former hockey player. His smoldering presence is a temptation and a challenge to her long-standing vow not to date cis men.
Gavin Williams has no business starting a relationship, least of all with a woman he's not sure even likes him. He can't resist the Friendly Bean's hot, pink-haired owner, but a casual fling is all he can commit to. He's hoping to leave town for the next stage in his career...if he ever gets the call with the job offer.
A friends-with-benefits arrangement is perfect for them both—but neither is ready for the feelings that hit. When the post-hockey life Gavin always dreamed of is suddenly within his grasp, they'll both have to make a choice: hold tight to what they thought life should look like, or work together to build something new.

      Sparks fly between a retiring hockey player and a queer coffee shop owner in James's "Firebirds" series launch. Still recovering from the knee injury that ended his decades-long hockey career, Gavin Williams is a grumpy, bitter man the first time he meets Piper Welborn, the owner of the Friendly Bean coffee shop. Bisexual Piper, who rebuilt her life around the local queer community after the death of her parents, has sworn off dating men, afraid that a boyfriend will alienate her from her community. When the two are forced to work together on a charity project, they discover their powerful chemistry, and embark on an intense fling before Gavin's planned return to his home city of Vancouver for a post-retirement job. The two protagonists are united by exploring shared feelings of pain and loss, both physical and emotional, and the fear of taking a step onto a new path. The book also excels at thinking through how questions of public and private identity shape a relationship. VERDICT Perfect for readers searching for nuanced bisexual representation in a sports romance.--Sierra Wilson, Chicago
