Playmaker: A Hockey Romance
Cooper
I hate lawyers. My family is made up of lawyers, so I know what they're like. I play hockey, and even though I've got more money and success than they have, I'm still the black sheep.
I need an impressive date for my sister's wedding. The tax lawyer with the ugly dress, being sneered at by an asshole who's a clone of my brother, would be perfect. In return, I can show her how to navigate the country club the asshole is taunting her about. She's suspicious but I talk her into it.
Other than my family, she's the only one who sees past my surface layers. But unlike them, she connects with me like no one else ever has. But when feelings develop, she runs. I'm fast on the ice, but I might not be able to catch her.
Callie
My mother was a flake. Exhibit A - she called me Calliope. I grew up bouncing between her custody and foster care waiting for her to get her act together. Spoiler alert, it never happened.
Never again would I be dependent on anyone else for security. I worked hard, and now I'm a tax attorney, valuable to my firm and on track to become partner. Except. It's not enough to be a genius at numbers and contracts, I have to navigate things like golfing at the country club, and there aren't books to study on that.
A cocky hockey player offers to help me if I'll be his date to a family wedding. And he insists on supervising what I wear. I can't trust him, but I need his help. Then I find out what he's like beneath his charm and start to feel things.
Just no. I refuse to take that risk. Because no one ever stays.
