She moved there because she needed a job, a roof over her head, and a fresh start that didn’t involve her ex, his secret spouse, or the emotional wreckage they left behind.
So when a physical therapy position opens up with a semi-pro hockey team in a frozen speck of a town, complete with on-site housing, she takes it.
Problem solved.
Except… the house already has an occupant.
Beau Wolfe.
Team captain.
Broody alpha.
Built like a brick wall with trust issues.
And very much not thrilled about sharing his space.
One alpha roommate is manageable.
Two is a complication.
Three is a situation.
And when Connor Madsen—cocky winger, chaos incarnate—and Theo Phillips—quiet, watchful, devastatingly steady—start orbiting a little too close, Emery’s omega instincts start asking questions she was not prepared to answer.
She’s professional. Grounded. Suppressed.
She absolutely does
• sleep with her coworkers
• get knotted during a PT session
• catch feelings in a locker room
• or accidentally form the softest, filthiest, most emotionally supportive pack of her life
But between late-night rehab sessions, brutal rivalry games, protective alphas with too much heart, and a town that somehow sneaks under her skin…
Iron Lake starts to feel like home.
The Icebox starts to feel like family.
And the men she never planned to love?
They feel like choice.
Playing Hurt is a cozy, emotionally rich, spicy reverse harem omegaverse hockey romance that is perfect for readers who
- small-town sports chaos
- protective but respectful alphas
- found family & pack dynamics
- slow-build bonds with big feelings
- and just enough ice hockey to justify the thighs
Welcome to Iron Lake.
Bring a sweater.
(And maybe a nest.)
