About this ebook

A Tampa Suns Hockey Romance

She has no time for romance.

He’s not looking for love.

Neither sees the slap shot life sends their way.

Shannon Mackenna’s life revolves around her family, with her 4 year old daughter at the center. She knows first hand how life can change in an instant. Her parents’ unexpected death taught her never to take things for granted.

She lives with no regrets—not even the one-night-stand with a minor league hockey player that resulted in a surprise pregnancy. When she tried to contact him, he denied even recognizing her and Shannon vowed to raise her daughter on her own.

Cliff “Cam” Camden embraced the bad-boy-athlete persona the moment he was drafted. He enjoyed all of the perks and has long stopped counting notches on his hockey stick. Now, Cam wants more than off-ice conquests. It’s time to put his career first. He’s not looking for distractions—until he meets the beautiful, sassy owner of Shamrock Fitness. Intrigued by the elusive, private woman, Cam hopes for the chance of something more.

Shannon fears her past has collided with her carefully scripted life but she finds it difficult to resist Cam’s devilish smile and brilliant silver eyes. His thoughtfulness outshines his obvious sex appeal, and every time she sees him, her heart skips a beat—and not just because of the way his touch lights up her whole body.

Neither denies the mutual attraction, but Shannon must protect her secret at all costs—even if it means walking away from her happily ever after.


**Timely Assist is a standalone book in the Tampa Suns Hockey series. This sweet and spicy full-length novel can be read on its own—no cliffhanger, no cheating and a guaranteed Happily Ever After.

If you love hockey romances this hook should definitely be on your radar and if you love surprise pregnancy’s this should be a must read so all in all this book has something for everyone. This is the first hook I have read by this author but it certainly won’t be the last because this is a well written, entertaining m emotional read that I highly recommend. Shannon meets AHL player Cam while out celebrating her of end of term exams, a one night stand was not meant to turn her world around. She try’s to tell Cam about her pregnancy but he can’t remember even spending the night with her and now four years later they come face to face at Shamrock Gym, the business Shannon has worked hard to be successful. Cam is not the boy she met all those years ago, he is now a man and when he finds out about his daughter he steps up to be part of his daughters life. Problem is he burnt Shannon once before so will she take another chance and risk this time around not only her heart but her daughters as well. This is a book with all the feels, it’s realistic and beautifully written, it’s a journey that will certainly tug on your heartstrings as you join this couple trying to build a future for a child with special needs. I haven’t read the rest of the series but after reading Timely Assist I will certainly be playing catch up with the previous books as soon as time permits. A wonderful read from a very talented author.

5 Star Review Timely Assist by Robyn M Ryan Robyn M Ryan is a relatively new author to me. I loved this story, from the first chapter to the last I was invested in Shannon Mackenna and Cliff “Cam” Camden’s story. Timely Assist was an entertaining, emotional read that ticked all the boxes for me. This was a story of love, romance and overcoming ones fears and taking a leap of faith and above all learning to believe in yourself. All it takes is one night to change the course of your life and that’s what happens to Shannon after meeting AHL player Cam and ends up with a baby. She tries to tell Cam about the baby but he can’t even remember their night together and so she leaves. Fast forward a number of years and Shannon is shocked when she comes face to face with Cam again at her gym. Cam is instantly attracted to Shannon but as he he dismissed her before she is not sure she wants to give him another chance. As they get to now one another it is obvious that he has changed. Thankfully he has gown up since they last met and when he eventually learns that he has a daughter, Kayleigh, he steps up. It was emotional and heart warming as he got to know Kayleigh and I was cheering for the three of them to get the happily ever after that they all deserved.
