Cheap Shot

A broken NHL bad boy. The coach's daughter he can't stay away from. One therapy table between them, and far too many reasons it should never work.

Hockey was supposed to be my escape, the thing that finally proved I was more than Cooper Hendrix's little brother.

Instead, a brutal playoff loss and a trade I didn't ask for sends me straight onto the Timberwolves, stuck playing beside the brothers I have spent my whole life trying to outrun.

Enter Michele Mercer.

She's my new physiotherapist and the coach's daughter. The one girl who should be completely off-limits if I want any shot at saving my career.

But Michele doesn't treat me like I am broken or look at me like I will always be second best. She pushes back, slices straight through my ego, and sees me in ways no one else ever has.

Coach has one rule: don't touch his daughter.
My problem? I have never been good at following rules.

And every time Michele looks at me, I want to break them all.

Perfect for fans of:

• The coach's daughter... aka the ultimate off-limits romance
• Redemption arcs that hurt (and heal)
• Bad boy x good girl tension
• Small town + hockey romance vibes
• Found family feels + messy healing
• All the emotion, swoon, & HEA you crave
