ABOUT THE BOOK:
You’d think nearly dying trying to get out of a too-tight gown in a dressing room and being saved by a strong, competent man was a good thing.
Not so much, though, when that strong, competent man is your ex. Your secret ex.
And the reason you need a gown is because you’re part of a charity auction.
The charity auction where he gets into a bidding war to win you.
And now, because you’re one of few female coaches in professional baseball, and he’s the captain of the local professional hockey team, and he paid a ridiculous sum of money for you…
The entire city is shipping you. You can’t leave your apartment without getting a knowing wink from strangers. Your bosses want to use the publicity to have you jointly launch a new community outreach program.
That’s bad enough. It truly is.
But even worse?
Duncan Lavoie, the green-eyed, curly-haired, dimple-cheeked, hot as lava hockey player wants a second chance. And he’ll play dirty to get it.
The Secret Hook-Up is a laugh-out-loud romcom featuring the hot-as-sin hockey captain of the Copper Valley Thrusters, the Copper Valley Fireballs’ lady baseball coach he never got over, and a misbehaving formal gown. It stands alone and comes complete with a happily-ever-after.

The Secret Hook-Up by Pippa Grant
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
🎧📖AUDIO & EBOOK REVIEW📖🎧
My journey with Pippa Grant’s word started out less than stellar way back in the day, but then, years later, I listened to an audiobook of a story that was so cleverly written I honestly thought it was a different author. But it was not (lol) and ever since that day I have tried to devour as many of Pippa’s words as I can. I don’t know if I changed or she changed or maybe even many moons ago I wasn’t in the right mind set, but now I absolutely love her and her ridiculous sense of humor!! Her stories are vibrant and funny and clever and just all the things that make rom-coms fabulous reads!
The Secret Hook-Up is one of the funniest books I’ve had the pleasure of both listening and reading this year! Thanks to Hambright PR, I got to listen to the ALC a couple of weeks ago and thanks to Give Me Books PR, I got to read this fabulous romcom just a couple of days ago, and I have to tell you, this is one of those times when I would lean more towards listening if you have that opportunity. Virginia Rose & Tim Paige were absolutely fabulous, but that’s not really the reason I’d lean towards listening. The main reason is because a Pippa Grant story comes alive in audio format in a way that puts you in the story without you even trying. I’ve listened to about 13 of her stories so far and every time I feel like part of the story. I laugh as if I was in the story as a secondary character involved in all manners of shenanigans. It’s really hard to explain this phenomenon, but it’s happened to me a handful of times and it’s absolutely glorious when it does. Virgina & Tim didn’t just narrate this story, they acted it out in my head and it was a party up in there for almost 8 hours! #winning
I loved this second chance journey. It had heart and humor and was full of charm. A signature Pippa Grant story you do not want to miss! GO DO THE THING!
MEET THE AUTHOR:
Pippa Grant wanted to write books, so she did. Before she became a USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling romantic comedy author, she was a young military spouse who got into writing as self-therapy. That happened around the time she discovered reading romance novels, and the two eventually merged into a career. Today, she has more than 30 knee-slapping Pippa Grant titles and nine written as Jamie Farrell. When she’s not writing romantic comedies, she’s fumbling through being a mom, wife, and mountain woman, and sometimes trying to find hobbies. Her crowning achievement? Having impeccable timing for telling stories that will make people snort beverages out of their noses. Consider yourself warned.
