Every couple of months Alyson Archer has released a tantalizing super charged novella for her adoring audience. I am her adoring audience. And I hope this release schedule never changes. Unless she wants to give us a release every month. I wouldn’t hate that, but I also won't be greedy and will remain thankful for our current release schedule.  As soon as I was done with Claimed by the Center, book one in the Toronto Thunder series, I was dying to get my hands on Taught by the Coach. Let me assure you, Taught by the Coach DID NOT DISAPPOINT. 

This book has all the fun push and pull of undeniable tension between two adults who refuse to admit their desires in fear of 1. Their feelings not being reciprocated and 2. How much it would complicate their lives. Nothing says danger and deceit like keeping a hot and heavy relationship secret from your best friend… because that guy she’s been pressing you to tell her about? It’s her dad. 

If you’re needing a spicy hockey romance(he’s the coach) that you can breeze through in an afternoon, Taught by the Coach is your book. You can look forward to:
- Age gap
- Insta love
- Best friend’s dad
- Secret relationship
- Forbidden Workplace relationship

If you haven’t read book one in this series, start there. It’s his daughter, and she’s more than willing to be Claimed by the Center.
