In The Hole: A Steamy MM Hockey Romance
Luca Reed
Dr. Ethan Price, the team's new physiotherapist, notices what others miss – the way Christian uses physical pain to quiet emotional noise. With steady hands and quiet perception, Ethan sees beyond the stoic athlete to the man carefully holding himself together.
As winter deepens across campus, something undeniable builds between in treatment rooms under warm lights, in chance encounters that become anything but chance, in moments of vulnerability where words fail and touch becomes their truest language.
But when professional boundaries and personal fears collide, both men must decide if what's growing between them is worth the risk of being truly seen – and if the comfort of solitude is worth the cost of connection.
