Hit Me With Your Best Shot

by Sara Ney

2025

Austin roasts struggling hockey goalie Gio Montagalo in a sports bar and ends up challenged to do it again from the stands. Their flirtation is funny, messy, and a lot more real than either expects.

Series background & context

The Houston Baddies Hockey books move Sara Ney fully into pro hockey, but the focus stays exactly where you would expect: off the ice, deep in the banter, and very close to the romantic trouble. This is an adult series built around one team, which means teammates, siblings, and team-adjacent characters keep crossing through each other's stories.

Hit Me With Your Best Shot opens the world with goalie Gio Montagalo and Austin Adams, a professor and hockey fan who accidentally roasts him in public and gets pulled into his orbit. That sets a playful tone for the series. These books are comfortable being funny first. Can't Always Get What You Want keeps the team connection going through Nova, Gio's twin sister, and Luca Babineaux, the teammate she absolutely should not be secretly dating. Don't Go Breaking My Heart stays in the same world with another off-limits setup and close-quarters tension.

What makes the series click is that the hockey world never swallows the romance. The team gives the books structure and crossover, but the real momentum comes from private problems: attraction that makes life inconvenient, siblings who meddle, rules that look easy to follow until they are not, and adults trying to balance work with feelings they did not schedule.

This is sports romance, but it is not all locker room and game stats.

It is more about the social life built around a team, the people living near it, and the way one player falling in love can ripple through everyone else. If you want Sara Ney in a pro-hockey setting with adult stakes and lots of personality, this is the series for that.
