No Check Summer

A struggling small-town rink. A summer hockey camp for boomers. Two women in their fifties who never expected to fall in love.

Mara Desrosiers believes in structure, safety, and keeping hockey on the right side of common sense. Jo Callahan believes in joy, creativity, and letting people surprise themselves.

When the two women are thrown together to coach a summer hockey camp in rural Ontario, they expect conflict, not chemistry. Their boomer campers want rough old-school games. Mara and Jo want everyone to leave without needing orthopedic intervention. But as the camp grows, the town rallies around its beloved rink, and one sharp-eyed camper assumes the coaches are already a couple, both women are forced to face a truth they never saw coming.

Set in a warm, funny small town full of meddling boomers, rink politics, and late-in-life possibility, No-Check Summer is a cozy sapphic romance about second chances, community, and discovering that love can arrive long after you think your story is set.

Perfect for readers who love:

• Later-in-life romance
• Cozy small-town settings
• Sapphic love stories
• Sports romance with heart and humor
