The Moonshot Hockey Series in Order

About the Moonshot Hockey series

Series Premise

The series follows players from the Montana Moonshot (a fictional minor-league hockey team) as they navigate the pressures of hockey life (games, injuries, trades, small-town fame) while finding love with strong, independent women. Each book is a standalone romance featuring a different player and heroine, often using popular tropes like grumpy/sunshine, single dad, forced proximity, neighbors, or found family. The stories blend intense sports drama with heartfelt, emotional romance, focusing on personal growth, healing from past hurts, and the balance between career and love in a tight-knit hockey community.

Main Characters

The series rotates heroes from the Montana Moonshot hockey team, with recurring crossovers:
> Nick Galaxy (Lucky Shot, Book 1) — Grumpy, talented hockey captain and single dad. Protective, private, and emotionally guarded; falls for the heroine who moves into his cabin.
> Ruby (or similar) — Heroine of Book 1; determined author or newcomer; bright, resilient, and the sunshine to Nick’s grump.
> Other Moonshot players — Later books feature teammates (e.g., in Keeping Score and Taking Sides); cocky, loyal alphas with their own romantic arcs.
> Heroines — Strong, independent women (authors, newcomers, or locals) who challenge the players and bring healing or change.
> Recurring: The extended hockey team (found family), family members (especially Nick’s child), and local townspeople who add small-town charm.

Setting

Modern-day Montana (primarily a small, scenic town with the Montana Moonshot hockey team):
> Hockey arena, practice facilities, team events, and player homes.
> Rural/small-town Montana life: cabins, mountains, lakes, and wide-open spaces.
> Local spots: bars, coffee shops, family homes, and community gatherings.
The atmosphere is rugged and beautiful — crisp mountain air, snowy winters, summer outdoors, and the warmth of a close-knit hockey community.
