Perfect for fans of steamy hockey romances like Icebreaker and The Au Pair Affair, this sizzling childhood friends-to-lovers story follows Kennedy and Nash as they rekindle with the one that got away—if their demanding careers don’t pull them even further apart.
After years of putting her professional life first, 25-year-old Kennedy Miller has finally secured her dream job: she is officially an advertising executive. Though shy and reserved, Kennedy begins her new chapter in New York City, and things couldn’t be more perfect. Until a celebratory night out reunites her with a long lost best friend—and childhood crush.
Taller, fitter, and hotter than ever, 25-year-old Nash Reed is a hockey superstar. Growing up to become one of the most sought-after players in the league—both on and off the ice—he now plays center for the New York Empires hockey team.
When the old friends run into each other at a bar, flames reignite. But what starts off as a hot and exciting love affair turns into a challenge. With the fame and flashing lights of Nash’s career, Kennedy is brought into the spotlight in ways she never expected. Not to mention the added stress of managing the high demands of her new job.
Through the journey of re-discovering one another, handling meddling paparazzi, a jealous teammate, and flirty fans, Kennedy and Nash’s ability to trust each other is put to the test. As their opposing worlds do everything to pull them apart, they must decide whether their love is worth fighting for.
