Isabella -

A rebound. That’s all I was looking for.

A fresh start, a clean slate, and maybe a little distraction to get my ex out of my head.

What I didn’t expect was my roommate pushing me right into Ryan Reed—hockey team captain, and oh... my brother's best friend.

Avoiding him becomes impossible when I'm stuck seeing him every day thanks to my internship with my dad… who also happens to be Ryan’s coach.

And then came the late-night talks. The flirting. The lines we promised we wouldn’t cross.

It was supposed to be a one-time thing.

Now I’m in way too deep, and falling for the one guy I was never supposed to touch.

Ryan -

Being the captain of the hockey team and the younger brother of a hockey legend comes with a lot of pressure.

Which turns into the longest dry spell I’ve had in a while.

But then I meet her.

Isabella Hayes. 

Smart. Sexy. So damn tempting.

But her brother’s my best friend. Her dad is my coach. And I’ve been warned to stay far, far away.

Getting involved with Isabella is a disaster waiting to happen—especially when she deserves someone who can offer her more than casual fling.

But when I find out she wants a rebound, I tell myself I can do this.

Just once. No strings.But once turns into twice.

Twice turns into thrEe times. 

And soon I can’t even remember what it’s like to be away from her. 

Her brother would never forgive me if he found out.

Her dad would kill me.

But I can’t stop. 

And I sure as hell don’t want to.
