The last thing Leo Abbott would do is date a teammates sister and instead of saying no…he says he’s already dating someone. Let the shenanigans begin because now Leo must confess to Mara Torres what he just did.
If you enjoy hockey romance that has enemies to lovers with a fake dating plan, found family, secrets, a plot twist, and lots of interconnected characters consider this for your next read. Did I mention that our beloved Darling is back too?
For now I’ll be counting down the days until ๐ ๐๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ซ releases next month.
This slow-burn spicy romance has exploration is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting.ย Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or momentsย that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat.

From the moment we meet Briar Hollis I was right there with her on that boat sailing to an unknown destination and all in! Determined to survive Briar must figure out which group of savages is least likely to kill her as she swims to shore.
An island filled with secrets, strangers that are ready to fight to the death, deception, angst, and so much more in a place where who you trust could be the difference between life and death. Itโs a tsunami as each wave impacts the characters in a game of chess where even those who are two moves ahead of an opponent still risk defeat and possible death.
It’s time to put your survival skills to the test and hope your choices keep you alive. I was on the edge of my seat with all the twist and turns.
