Between the Whistles

Between the Whistles is an emotionally charged MM second-chance hockey romance filled with heartbreak, tension, explosive chemistry, and the kind of love that refuses to stay buried.

Silas Vane used to be a rising star with a future bright enough to blind anyone who looked too closely.

Now, at thirty, he’s a battered enforcer clinging to one final NHL contract with the Chicago Ironclads. His body is held together by scars, painkillers, and sheer stubbornness. The league sees him as a relic—a disposable shield brought in to protect younger players and absorb the hits no one else wants to take.

Then he walks into the locker room and comes face-to-face with the one man capable of destroying him completely.

Julian Aris is hockey’s golden captain. Talented, polished, and worshipped by fans, Jules has everything Silas lost years ago: fame, power, and the perfect career. But beneath the captain’s flawless image lies a decade of resentment, betrayal, and unresolved desire neither man has ever escaped.

Once, they were inseparable.
Once, they planned a future together.

Then Silas disappeared, leaving Jules behind without explanation.

Now forced onto the same team, the former lovers are trapped in a war of icy stares, brutal practices, and late-night confrontations that blur the line between hatred and longing.

Every collision on the ice reignites old wounds—and every stolen glance threatens to expose the feelings they’ve spent years burying.

As the pressure of the season intensifies and buried secrets begin to surface, Silas and Jules must decide whether love is worth risking their careers, reputations, and hearts one final time.
