The Pucking Comeback
A.J. Summers
Mine just skated back as Nate Russo.
Brother’s best friend.
Broody, brick wall goalie for the Defenders.
The man who shattered my heart at sixteen.
And one bad stretch away from losing his season.
He’s got a strained adductor and I’ve got a startup dream.
This gig is my shot—the reputation I need to open my own studio.
Simple.
Until he’s on my table.
I loosen his adductor.
He knots up my resolve.
I draw lines in ink.
He kisses them away.
The universe enjoys watching me suffer in slow motion.
Because after PT, he talks me into…spicy lessons in losing control.
Between my rules and his touch, do I even stand a chance?
And how do I heal him without breaking all over again?
