This enemies-to-lovers hockey romance features a suspended defenseman with a temper coming face-to-face with a spitfire that threatens to melt the ice around his heart. I'm the notoriously angry, grouchy D.C. Eagles defenseman who just can't keep his temper in check-a temper that leads to a fifteen-game suspension from the NHL. As if that's not bad enough, I'm forced into a short-term youth-hockey coaching gig-which my manager swears will "rebuild my image." But what I didn't expect was for a gorgeous, spunky blonde to stomp onto the ice on day one and lecture me about being rude to her little brother. Something about this spitfire of a woman, and the boy she's so protective of, has my defenses melting. And if I'm not careful, I'll burst into flames, forever melting the ice I've carefully kept around my heart. This is a closed-door romcom with mild language. Trigger warnings include parental substance abuse and dealing with grief/loss of parents. I'm not the hero in this story. I'm the villain.
