He's the coldest player in the league. She's sunshine in scrubs. Cole "Iceman" Mercer doesn't do feelings. Left at the altar two years ago, he's built walls so thick nobody gets through.

Left at the altar two years ago, he's built walls so thick nobody gets through. Then Ivy Chen spills coffee on him her first day as the team's new physical therapist—and refuses to stop smiling no matter how hard he glares. She sees past his ice to the wounded man underneath. He discovers her brightness isn't weakness—it's strength. Forced together for daily therapy sessions, their chemistry is undeniable. But when her ex returns claiming he made a mistake, Cole's old fears resurface. Can he trust that Ivy won't leave like everyone else? And can Ivy convince the grumpiest man in Seattle that being "too much" is exactly what he needs? Sometimes the coldest hearts hide the warmest souls. Will the Iceman finally let himself melt? less

He's been forbidden from the moment I kissed him. Ten years ago, Quinn Sullivan broke my heart at my brother's graduation party. One kiss. One rejection. One decade of trying to forget the boy who walked away. Now I'm back in Seattle, hired to rebrand his hockey team—and he's the captain. Devastating. Off-limits. And pretending he doesn't remember me. Except he does remember. Every single second. Working together means stolen glances. Secret touches. A chemistry we can't ignore... moreHe's been forbidden from the moment I kissed him. Ten years ago, Quinn Sullivan broke my heart at my brother's graduation party. One kiss. One rejection. One decade of trying to forget the boy who walked away. Now I'm back in Seattle, hired to rebrand his hockey team—and he's the captain. Devastating. Off-limits. And pretending he doesn't remember me. Except he does remember. Every single second. Working together means stolen glances. Secret touches. A chemistry we can't ignore. When we finally give in, it's everything I've dreamed of—passionate, perfect, and completely forbidden. Because my brother made one rule crystal clear: his best friend is off-limits. Quinn says he'll choose me. That he'll fight for us. But when my brother discovers our secret, someone's going to get hurt. Can we have it all—or will loving him cost me everything? less
