Enemies in the Penalty Box Preview: Rival Captains, One Penalty Box, and the Secret That Changes Everything

Two rival hockey captains. One forced PR campaign. A penalty box that turns hatred into something neither of them can control.Ethan Cole is hockey's golden boy — youngest captain in franchise history, four-time All-Star, a smile so perfect it could sell anything. Underneath it all, he's drowning in anxiety and a praise addiction his father's conditional love built into his bones. Rory Kincaid is hockey's villain — the enforcer everybody loves to hate, the man who reads philosophy and cooks French food and fosters a one-eyed pit bull, and hasn't been told he's worth something by anyone who mattered in over a decade.When the league forces them into a joint sportsmanship campaign — photo shoots, shared interviews, a documentary crew in their faces — the hatred that defined their rivalry starts to crack. Because Rory sees through the golden boy's performance. And Ethan sees through the enforcer's armor. And what's growing between them in the penalty box is not professional respect.In this episode, you'll hear the first eight chapters — the rivalry, the forced proximity, the viral clip that breaks the internet, the turbulence scene that changes everything, and the moment in a supply closet that ends with two men and three inches of a door neither of them is brave enough to open. Yet.⚠️ This novel contains explicit MM sexual content, praise kink, depictions of anxiety/depression, and strong language. 18+ only.🎧 LISTEN TO THE FULL STORY:- Get it directly from us (Best Value!): https://fractalenigma.com/our-books/enemies-in-the-penalty-box/- Available at all major retailers: https://books2read.com/u/49Y5BY- 🔥 EXCLUSIVE Bonus Chapter (TOO HOT for Amazon): https://fractalenigma.com/our-books/eitpb-bc/If you're loving these previews, subscribe so you never miss an episode.
