About this ebook

In the aftermath of their Stanley Cup victory, Chris and Natalie find themselves entangled in a whirlwind Vegas marriage that challenges them to gamble on love or risk losing it all under the dazzling lights.



As the Newport Beach Seagulls claim their first Stanley Cup victory, star player Chris Worthington finds the championship brings more than just glory—it reignites a past he can’t escape. 


Meanwhile, Natalie Bowman, an ambitious executive still smarting from a recent breakup, gets swept into the celebrations. 


The wild nights in Vegas promise a temporary escape, but when their paths cross, the spark between them ignites a fire neither can deny.


Natalie, grappling with betrayal and seeking liberation from her structured life, finds Chris's wild, carefree spirit both a thrill and a threat to her fragile heart. 


Chris, accustomed to the uncomplicated company of fans and the adrenaline of the game, finds Natalie’s resilience and intellect an unexpected challenge. 


As the lights of Vegas dazzle, and the shadows of past relationships loom, Chris and Natalie must decide if what happens in Vegas will stay in Vegas, or if they're playing for keeps. Will the glitzy nights forge a lasting bond, or will old wounds and new challenges force them back to solitary paths?


Wedding Rings & Champions is an accidental Vegas wedding hockey romance full of unexpected love, the power of healing, and the thrill of victory, both on the ice and off.

This is book 8 in The Slapshot series and it features Chris Worthington, third line left winger for the Newport Beach Gulls hockey team, and Natalie Bowman. This is a very quick insta-like/love romance. Just remember that what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas as these two soon find out. But their compatibility takes them off guard. This story line was serious but fun and is just what you’d expect from this fabulous author. This is a great addition to a fantastic series!

I picked up this title because of the just met - got married trope and I love hockey romances. Overall, I found the story ok. I didn't click with the author's writing style - I found it frequently a bit awkward/not flowing well. I think what put me on the wrong foot was the first chapter with the hockey game. As a lifelong hockey fan, I found the way the play was described, and some of the terminology and descriptions were not true to how hockey is commentated. For example: When they scored a goal "They were on the board One to zero" vs "one to nothing" as would commonly be the phrase. There was a lot of description of non-play aspects - how he held onto his stick in the penalty box? whether he drank the Gatorade? It would have been much more engaging if there were more fulsome descriptions of the play - for example - the penalty he got "He kept his head down and skated after the puck. He crashed into a body in the boards and a penalty was called." Overall, I think it could have been improved with some good editing, particularly by someone knowledgeable about hockey.
