Published 14 August 2018

Opposites attract when a single dad and an ER nurse take a shot at finding true love in this heartwarming, heartfelt romance. Griffin Sullivan is handling the ultimate balancing act. Between being a single dad to an active six-year-old and the crazy demands of his job as a hockey coach, finding love is not in the cards. But when the team's goalie is rushed to the ER, he's immediately captivated by the gorgeous, sassy nurse on duty... who just happens to be the sister of one his players. Sadie Braddock has always had a big, open heart and a bit of a wild side. But since her dad got sick, she's closed herself off to life and love. Relationships are way too complicated--and so is Griffin. He's also funny and tender and sexy as hell. How can something that feels so right come at the worst time ever? Then again, someone to lean on may be exactly what they each need--if they're only brave enough to take the risk.

Levi Casco and Jude Braddock are the dynamic duo for the San Francisco Thunder hockey team. They're some of the highest paid, best performing players in the NHL and on the verge of leading their team to back-to-back Stanley Cups. Although they work perfectly together on the ice and are compatible teammates, off the ice they couldn't be more different. Levi is serious, rational, emotionless. Jude is brash, impetuous, lecherous and a live wire emotionally. But then Levi runs into Tessa, Jude's only serious ex-girlfriend, and he was front row center when they broke up eleven months ago. Tessa is also the object of Levi's secret fantasies. With Jude out of the picture, he and Tessa give in to their lust. It's just fun, it's just lust... until they realize it isn't. By then Jude has realized Tessa is back in town and he's trying to win her back. But is Jude really a changed man? Does Levi love Tessa enough to fight for her? Even if it costs him professionally? And who does Tessa really want?

Eli Casco is on the brink of having everything he ever wanted. He's just been called up from the minor leagues to play goalie for the San Francisco Thunder hockey team. And he just had the most mind-blowing night with the woman of his dreams. But now that he'll be in the same town, she's completely shutting him down.

Dixie Braddock loves her job as a publicist for the Thunder. But as much as she's always enjoyed doing the long-distance flirting thing with Eli, dating him now would ruin her hard-won reputation, just when she's up for promotion. He's the last distraction she needs on top of team shenanigans and an ailing father. But the more time they spend together, the harder it is to keep to her hands-off policy-especially when Eli is making all the right moves to play for keeps.
