Waiting on Wednesday: In the Penalty Box by Riley Shane


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine which spotlights eagerly anticipated upcoming releases!

I love Riley Shane's work, so of course In the Penalty Box is a WOW pick for me. But even if I weren't a fan of the author, I adored the first book in the Seattle Marauders series, Two-Man Advantage, and I'm a big hockey fan so any hockey romance catches my eye :)

Note: The cover hasn't been posted so I borrowed the coming soon cover from Riley Shane's website.

In the Penalty Box Coming Soon Cover Title: In the Penalty Box
Series: Seattle Marauders, Book 2
Author: Riley Shane
Genre: Erotic Male/Male Contemporary Romance
Publisher: Loose Id
Release Date: March 6, 2012

Book Description (from Goodreads):

For four years, writer Landon Quinn has struggled to forget the one night he spent with Seattle Marauders defenseman Gregory Samson. Then Landon’s life takes an unexpected turn, and he finds himself back in Seattle…and face-to-face with the man who broke his heart.

Samson doesn’t know what he did to run Landon off all those years ago, but he’s sure Landon’s leaving was for the best. The bright, beautiful young man Landon had once been was far too adoring, far too open, for the closeted hockey player’s peace of mind. The intervening years have only made Landon an even sexier temptation--and Landon’s return presents Samson with a whole new set of problems.

Attraction sizzles between them, but having been burned once by Samson has left Landon twice shy. Even as Samson convinces Landon to let him out of the penalty box and into his life, Samson has to face the fact that his closely guarded secrets may come to light.

Caught between the ghosts of his past and the promise of a future with Landon, the hockey star must decide if he’s ready to leave the bench and risk everything to have the life and love he craves.
