He’s the attractive but irritable goalie who captured my high school crush, and now I find myself living with him as his assistant.
After my dreams in the music industry were crushed by my ex, I’ve sworn off heartbreak. Taking a job as an assistant to an NHL player was supposed to be straightforward, but Jamie Streicher is anything but easy to deal with. He’s a dauntingly good-looking, grumpy guy who can’t seem to stand me. His ego is larger than life. However, I’m determined to maintain a professional demeanor, even when he insists I move in with him.
Beneath his surly exterior, I discover that Jamie has an unexpectedly sweet and protective side.
When Jamie learns about my disappointing past relationship, his competitive spirit ignites, and he goes out of his way to support and pamper me in every possible way. The creative spark I once had for songwriting starts to flicker back to life, and I find myself composing music again. Between wearing his jersey at games, attending lively team gatherings, and regaining my courage on stage, I’m falling for him.
I know he has the potential to break my heart, but the risk might just be worth it.
