A sweet and sexy hockey romance about two ex-teammates and former best friends with benefits who are about to discover whether you can ever really have a second chance. From the New York Times bestselling author of Heated Rivalry.

After moving back to his hometown ten years ago, Riley Tuck thought he had left his major league hockey careerβ€”and his broken heartβ€”far behind. But when an unexpected tragedy strikes, it brings ex-teammate and former best friend with benefits, Adam Sheppard, back into his life.

Coming to the small town of Avery River, Nova Scotia, might have been a mistake. Adam's not sure he'll ever win back Riley's trust after the way they left thingsβ€”and the attention he's getting as a huge hockey star isn't exactly helping. Yet the chemistry that crackles between them is undeniable, even now.

As Adam helps Riley navigate his grief, long-buried feelings start to resurface. But they'll have to square off with their complicated past if they're going to have a real shot at a new beginning.
