My brother’s best friend is such a jerk. An imposing, handsome jerk who doesn’t trust me. And now we’re roommates. He wanders around the apartment in nothing but gray sweatpants, looking like a broody, tattooed muscle god, and playing music that shakes the walls. I want to hate him for treating me like an intruder, but there’s something about the way he looks at me—like he’s trying to figure me out—that keeps pulling me in.

Even so, I never dreamed we'd end up here—him hating me for the choices I made to save his career. It's fine. I've moved on. I've had a few bumps in the road with my rising event planning career, but running my best friend's wedding to her pro-football fiancé will fix all of that. If I pull off the perfect wedding. There's one more bump I wasn't expecting—my ex, Jett McCombs, is a groomsman, and seeing him again makes two things clear. I still love him. He still hates me.

West Brooks stands for everything I despise. He's a meathead jock whose silence says it all: He only cares about himself and his football season. So, why can't I say no when he offers me his help? I should run the other way. I should tell him exactly what I think of him for ruining my life. Instead, I agree to his terms because he might be the only person who can get me what I want.

Ein Neustart als Eishockeyspieler - das Angebot der Tofino Bears klang so verlockend, dass ich gleich zugesagt habe. Wer hätte ahnen können, dass meine zweite Chance als Spieler auch meine zweite Chance in der Liebe bedeutet? In meiner ersten Saison in Kanada bin ich fest entschlossen, all meine Kraft ins Team zu stecken. Dann begegne ich Celina, einer Frau, die mich komplett umhaut. Wie ich liebt sie das Eis, ist schlagfertig, heiß wie Feuer - und aus mehreren Gründen tabu. Der bedeutendste davon ist meine Vergangenheit.
