I left a Michelin kitchen to feed a hockey team. I did not come here to fall for one of them.
Rhys Callahan barely speaks. He shows up at my counter at 6:45 every morning, says four words, and somehow takes up all the air in the room.
I have a list of reasons I don't do this. Athletes. Coworkers. Men who are this quiet, this big, this carefully kind.
Then a ten-day road trip puts us in the same city. The same hallway. The same room.
I'm very good at running from things before they can become mine. He's the first thing I've ever wanted to stay for.
But my contract ends with the season, and I'm starting to want a future I'm not sure I'm allowed to keep.
So what do you do when the best thing in your life comes with an expiration date?
Genre: Romance
