First, he is my patient.
Then he is my husband.
Then he breaks every rule I ever gave him.
I’m Astrid Nilsson, physical therapist. I handle professional hockey players for a living, and not one of them has ever handled me.
Then Colt Riley lands on my table.
Thirty-eight, rich, and one of the league’s best centers. San Antonio has loved number twenty-seven for eighteen years. In this city, he gets what he wants.
The charm is a cover. His body is keeping a secret, and I’ll find it.
One morning, they take my job. Just like that, my daughter and I have sixty days to leave the country.
Colt has one solution: marry him.
I say no.
He actually listens. That’s the problem.
We tell everyone it’s love. We tell each other it’s an arrangement.
But when I play the piano, he goes quiet, watching my hands like he wants them on him. When we dance, his palm settles low on my back and stays there. In my blue dress, I don’t wait for him to take it off.
For eleven weeks, I told him exactly what to do with his body. Now he wants mine.
My first husband left in the middle of the night with one suitcase. If I can’t let myself need anyone again, Colt Riley will be the hardest thing I ever leave behind.
An emotional, slow-burn, forbidden-attraction, marriage-of-convenience hockey romance with an older hero, a single mom, steamy open-door scenes, and a guaranteed happily ever after. Book 5 and the San Antonio Stampede finale. It reads as a complete standalone, so you can start here.
Trigger warnings: on-page sex scenes, light dominance with clear consent, a father who walks out on his wife and young daughter, immigration and visa stress, job loss, a serious sports injury and chronic pain, the past death of a parent, bullying of a child at school, and strong language. Safe sex on page.
