Beauty and the Beefcake

by Pippa Grant

2018

Injured hockey enforcer Ares Berger is hiding out to recover in a possibly haunted house when he meets Felicity, the ventriloquist neighbor with too many voices in her head and not enough faith in herself. As she helps him heal and he helps her dream bigger, their unlikely connection turns into a tender, wildly funny romance.

Series background & context

The Thrusters Hockey series brings Pippa Grant’s brand of humor onto the ice with a roster of players who are larger than life in public and just as messy as everyone else in private. These books mix locker‑room shenanigans, unexpected royalty, and heart‑on‑sleeve emotion without ever taking the sport or the romance too seriously.

The team itself, the Copper Valley Thrusters, is a pro hockey franchise that attracts big personalities. There is the player whose ego is somehow bigger than his slap shot, the quiet giant who would rather let his actions speak for him, and the defenseman who believes charm can solve almost any problem. The series shows them on the rink and off, dealing with injuries, pressure, and the simple terror of falling in love.

The Pilot and the Puck-Up sets the tone with a star player whose arrogance is legendary and the fiercely capable pilot who is responsible for getting the team where it needs to go. When travel plans go sideways, they are forced into close quarters and discover that the real turbulence is in their chemistry. Royally Pucked takes things global, pairing a hockey‑playing spare prince with an American woman who never planned on being anywhere near a crown, let alone dealing with an accidental royal baby.

In Beauty and the Beefcake, the spotlight shifts to a hulking enforcer recovering from injury in a crumbling old house and the quirky neighbor who talks to him through the walls while juggling a ventriloquism gig and an overactive imagination. Charming as Puck leans into the classic falling‑for‑my‑sister’s‑best‑friend setup, matching a defenseman known for his easy smile with a heroine who has seen his worst habits up close and is not inclined to fall for them.

I Pucking Love You rounds out the set by focusing on a hero with a private problem he really does not want to talk about and a heroine whose matchmaking attempts keep going hilariously wrong. Their date‑of‑convenience is supposed to be forgettable. Instead, it becomes the spark that forces them both to confront what they actually want.

Across the series, you will see royal crossovers, references to other Copper Valley teams, and a deep affection for the way sports can create community. Games, practices, and team events are as much about family as they are about stats. If you want hockey romance that feels big‑hearted and a little unhinged, with plenty of banter and some wildly memorable side characters, the Thrusters books deliver.
