About this eBook

Bree Marks is my best friend... My secret crush…

And—wait for it—cursed with a deadly allergy to erecto-plasm. As in she’ll seriously swell up and die if seminal fluid even touches her. Which means finding the perfect guy to punch her V card is literally a matter of life and death.

She wants a no-strings summer fling, but she needs someone she can trust. A puck buddy who isn’t going to get overly emotional. Someone who’s as savvy in the sack as he is on the ice.

That’s where I come in. It’s a simple request, really—and one I would be happy to honor.

If it weren’t for the whole life-and-death thing. 

If I hadn’t just been traded to a team thousands of miles away from this girl who makes me think not all relationships are a losing game.

If I wasn’t already crazy in love with her.

This arrangement is a disaster waiting to happen, but the heart wants what it wants, and mine wants Bree, danger and all.

Ratings and reviews

The Bad Motherpuckers Series has become one of my ultimate favorite from the wonderful Lili Valente. Puck Buddies is the sixth installment and I just could not get enough of Bree and Shane. I love romances that start off as friends. Shane has had a secret crush on Bree for forever. Bree wanted to only be friends and Shane had accepted that they would only be the best of friends. That is until Bree came up with a proposition he couldn't say no to. Poor Bree had a rare and the weirdest of the weirdest allergies that has prevented her form being intimate with a man. She is allergic to semen and she is still a virgin because of it. When Bree realized that Shane would be moving far away she knew that her time with him was coming to and end. Who better to keep her safe and help her lose her V card then a man she calls a dear friend. So it was a no brainer that Shane would be the perfect man to help her out. Although they both agreed to no strings... emotions and attractions leads them down relationship road. As much as Bree fought to keep Shane at a distance and "just friends" title, he became so much more. What is to come of Bree and Shane when his time in Portland is done? Will they fight for one another and try to make it work thousand of miles apart? I really loved Bree and Shane and the beautiful relationship they shared. They both are corny and cooky, funny and sweet and overall a lovable couple. Puck Buddies has become my favorite in this series. Lili Valente once again captured the essence of each character and drew me in with the humor, passion, trust, vulnerability and acceptance that Bree and Shane had for each other.

Puck Buddies by Lili Valente is the sixth book in her sexy romantic hockey series, Bad Motherpuckers . This story of Bree and Shane is a friends to lovers story with a quirky twist. Well-paced and well-written (as always) this story is both sweet and sexy. The world of the Badgers Hockey team just keeps growing and fleshes out more and more with each book. Bree is a 23 year old virgin with a life-threatening allergy to semen. **drops mike** Tired of being a virgin and tipsy enough and comfortable enough with her friend Shane, she asks him, at her sisters, wedding to be her friend with benefits, a Benny Buddy. Having fully disclosed the issue with her allergy she expects him to decline but as her friend, and someone who has long been crushing on her, he is wiling to help her out. But with him leaving in a month to play for a team in another state and the both of them catching feelings, the situation gets complicated and it has nothing to do with her semen allergy and everything to do with their expectations of each other. Emotional and funny, quirky in all the right places and with the best text message conversations ever I absolutely adored this read. Hope you do too. Enjoy!

Friends to lovers with humour and heart… I’m still smiling long after finishing Bree and Shane’s sweet and steamy friends to lovers story. I laughed so much reading this hilarious spin on taking that scary step from the familiar to something more. And doing it while dealing with Bree’s condition? Well… Every warning you ever received about doing the nasty pales in comparison when sex could actually kill you! Bree is desperate to find out what all the hype is about and finally rid herself of her V-card. Plus stay alive. She’d really like that too. Not looking for permanent, and riding a liquid-fueled decision, she is going to hit up Shane to help her. And her bestie is very ready to ‘help’! “…I’m attracted to him, but not in the makes-me-feel-like-I’m-about-to-vomit sort of way.” The banter sparkled, the heat was intense and the shadow of losing their friendship rode them hard. It was fun and sweet and everything in between as friends weighed in via some of the best text message exchanges I’ve ever read! This series has been all about love and light, about laughter and a few tears. If you haven’t met these motherpuckers you need to! *Reviewed for 1-Click Addict Support Group

About the author

 Author of over forty novels, USA Today Bestseller Lili Valente writes everything from steamy suspense to laugh-out-loud romantic comedies. A die-hard romantic and optimist at heart, she can’t resist a story where love wins big. Because love should always win.

 

When she’s not writing, Lili enjoys adventuring with her two sons, climbing on rocks, swimming too far from shore, and asking “why” an incorrigible number of times per day. A former yoga teacher, actor, and dancer, she is also very bendy and good at pretending innocence when caught investigating off-limits places.

 

You can currently find Lili in the mid-South, valiantly trying to resist the lure of all the places left to explore.
