You, Again
By Lane Hayes
The Elmwood Stories, Book 1
The hometown hockey hero and his best friend’s brother…
Vinnie
Hockey is in my blood. I learned to skate before I learned how to ride a bike. I’ve been on a wild ride, playing at the highest level for some of the biggest and best teams in the league. But now it’s over, and I’m not sure what to do with myself.
So I’m going home to Elmwood.
But I’ll tell you what I’m not gonna do—I’m not going to coach my buddy’s junior hockey league. No chance. I don’t know how to deal with kids, and besides, the other coach—who happens to be my best friend’s brother—hates me. With reason.
That may be old news, yet something tells me we’re going to have to deal with the past.
And that’s almost as scary as coaching teens.
Nolan
No, I don’t hate Vinnie, but he drives me nuts.
He’s cocky, goofy, selfish, and yeah…after all these years, I’m still attracted to him. But I’m a responsible adult now. I run my family’s business, and with the help of my ex, I’ve made Elmwood Diner into a New England institution.
So maybe my life isn’t particularly exciting at the moment, and maybe Vinnie isn’t the worst. Nonetheless, I have no desire to rekindle a friendship with the hockey hero who no doubt will be on the first flight out of town the second he gets bored or gets a better offer.
And I’m not coaching with him. No way.
Ugh…
I can’t believe I’m doing this again.
You, Again is an MM bisexual, best friend’s brother, frenemies to lovers romance featuring old friends, a new quest, and a little hockey HEA!

Exclusive Excerpt:
Vinnie wasn’t tentative in any part of his life, so I supposed it made sense that his dirty talk was shockingly obscene. I mean, c’mon, I was the gay man with plenty of bedroom experience, but the things that came out of his mouth made me blush. Or cringe.
“Did you really tell me to suck you like a vampire?” I wiped my belly as I sat up in his bed.
“No, I said, ‘Get all vampire on me, baby. Suck that cock.’ ” He chugged half a water bottle and handed over the rest. “Or something like that. Too much?”
I snickered. “Not at all.”
“How much time do we have?” he asked, swinging his legs off the mattress and stretching his arms above his head.
I glanced at my watch. “Twenty-five minutes till practice. Fuck.”
“Cuttin’ it close.” He smacked my ass when I scrambled out of bed. “C’mon, you need a shower.”
I narrowed my eyes. “So do you, and don’t spank me, asshole. It’s weird.”
“Spanking is weird? Since when?” He moved ahead of me into the en suite bathroom and turned on both rain-head faucets in the two-person glass-and-tile shower.
“Since…always.”
Vinnie met my gaze in the mirror over the sink and rolled his eyes. “Sounds like your kink meter needs a tune-up. Spanking can be hot as fuck. Just sayin’.”
“Kink meter?” I stepped under the spray and tilted my chin to avoid looking at him. I could tell I was blushing, and how embarrassing was that?
“Yeah, whatever cranks your engine, ya know.” Vin lathered shampoo in his hair. “I’ll try anything once, so I can tell you for sure that having my toes sucked does nothing for me. But spanking is definitely on the go-to list.”
