Olive Henderson was told to stay away from Alexander O'Conner by her protective older brother, but she took it as a challenge. Nobody tells the Coca-Cola-loving, hockey-obsessed, confident, plus-size woman who to talk to—least of all Sebastian.
The only problem? The secret hookups between her and Lindon U's best left wing on the hockey team turn into more—and those feelings lead to a heartbreaking goodbye that tears the two apart when Alex gets drafted into the NHL.
No matter how much time passes, she can't get her older brother's teammate out of her mind. Now that the two are both professional players on opposite teams, their on-air rivalry makes it impossible for her to forget him completely.
That's perfect for the broody, mysterious left winger who regrets his choice to end things with the sassy, minty-eyed girl. Now that his life, and his mother's, depends on the checks he receives from the league, he has to figure out if he can have it all.
The game. And the girl. If she'll have him back.
