KNOX:
I have a plan: trash my reputation, force the trade, escape the father who chose hockey over me when I was a kid.
Everyone thinks I'm the bad boy. Let them. It's working perfectly—until my physical therapist starts humming Ukrainian lullabies while she works on me, and every brush of her hands turns my knees to jelly. Now I can't win a game unless she's filled in my crossword first, and the meals she sends from her mother's kitchen? It's not the cooking I crave. It's her.
Then I see she's in trouble. And the last thing I've ever been able to do is stay away from trouble. Let her father call me Ryan—being someone else is the greatest relief of my life. Her chaotic home is everything I never had. She's everything I never knew to want.
SAGE:
There's one rule on this team I can't break: don't fall for a hockey player.
And I have every reason to keep it—my father's mounting hospital bills, my mother breaking under the weight of caring for him alone, the career I've bled for. So I tell myself he's just another player. A notorious, infuriating player. But he keeps showing up—for my family, for me. We've become more than friends now, and the worst part?
I can't stay away either.
