Today I am so pleased to welcome Amy Aislin to Joyfully Jay. Amy has come to talk to us about her latest release, The Nature of the Game (Stick Side #2). She has also brought along an advanced copy to give away. Please join me in giving her a big welcome!

 

Thank you so much to Joyfully Jay for hosting the cover reveal for my upcoming novel, The Nature of the Game, book two in the Stick Side series! The Nature of the Game features two side characters from book one, On the Ice, and is a second chance romance between an NHL player who’s recently publicly come out as bisexual and a sun catcher maker stuck in a job he’s indifferent about. It’s about making amends, reconnecting, and proving that second chances are sometimes worth the risk. Check out the cover below and enter the giveaway to win an e-ARC!


Blurb

Six years ago, an ultimatum forced Dan Greyson to make a choice that cost him everything he loved most. One of those things? His boyfriend, hockey player Ashton. Now that they’ve crossed paths again, Dan isn’t about to let the opportunity slip away. Ash’s reappearance in his life is just the catalyst Dan needs to escape the rut he’s fallen into…and win back Ash’s trust and love.

Ashton Yager, once burned and now a little bit shy, didn’t mean to publicly come out as bisexual. But now that he has, he’s got to deal with the consequences, including the fact that it might’ve cost him his NHL contract. With his job on the line, he needs to keep his head down, work hard, and play the best hockey of his life. Rekindling things with Dan? That’s not exactly keeping a low profile. It’s also never going to happen, not after Dan walked away once without an explanation.

When a hurricane forces Ash to seek shelter out-of-state, he and Dan find themselves in the same B&B, where old feelings resurface. But with everything Ash has on the line, does he dare play with fire again?
