I’ve called Nash Miller every bad name in the book, but now he’s calling me a name I never expected to hear from his mouth: ‘Wife.’
When I learn that my fiancé is cheating on me, I do what any level-headed, mature woman in my situation would. I smash his phone with the pointy heel of my shoe, stomp out of his car, and find myself alone on a long, empty stretch of road in the middle of the night.
Who should pull over to pick me up but the grumpy, rude hockey player I’ve hated since college?
Nash doesn’t just take care of me at my lowest point—he offers to marry me so I can get the inheritance I need to save my bakery.
Now I’m hitched to the guy I can’t stand. And learning that beneath his rough and grumpy exterior, he’s surprisingly caring and thoughtful.
He builds me bookshelves, buys me overpriced candles, and makes me sleep in his bed.
He says sweet things that make me swoon, and dirty things that make me blush.
He can’t get enough of showing me off as his wife, and when we kiss, he does it like he actually meant those phony vows we exchanged.
Suddenly, I’m dealing with something I never anticipated: falling in love with my husband.
Holding Penalty is a full-length pro hockey romance with steam, no cheating, and a guaranteed happy ever after!
