Shatter

Gannon is Kieran's younger brother from [b:Thrash 26238241 Thrash (Hard Hit, #3) Charity Parkerson https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1442329927l/26238241.SY75.jpg 46229493]. He's been physically and emotionally damaged by a previous relationship with an obsessive ex. Alex is the obsessive lunatic who stalked and generally made life miserable for Ryker in [b:Blow 26001480 Blow (Hard Hit, #2) Charity Parkerson https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1441558334l/26001480.SY75.jpg 45786873]. The two meet, (Kieran is Alex's agent) and it's a match made in heaven. Gannon wants to feel protected and owned, but in control. Alex is happy to oblige. If you're in [a:Charity Parkerson 4506281 Charity Parkerson https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1519415903p2/4506281.jpg]'s world you're all in with insta-love, and blinding beauty. I'm okay with that. I'm not reading hockey adjacent MM stories for veracity. In fact my main draw to this series is the audio by [a:Hollie Jackson 16979649 Hollie Jackson https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1514809812p2/16979649.jpg]. An MM written by a woman, narrated by a woman, for a mostly female audience doesn't bother me. I think HJ does a fantastic job at doing male voices and creates distinctive ones for each character. Alex & Gannon embrace their bliss, their roles aren't what you would expect, we get some time with previous characters, and a bit of closure. Color me happy. ps. I won't add this to any of my sports shelves as the hockey connection is really tangential. Not a complaint. Just a fact.
