Breaking New Ice

She’s the sunny junior agent stuck babysitting hockey’s grumpiest star.

Too bad he’s her former celebrity crush—infuriating, irresistible, and completely off-limits.

Cassie Wells is a lifelong optimist. As a junior sports agent in a man’s world, she’s always had to fiercely believe in her dreams. Even when she’s overlooked for every promotion.

So when her boss hands her the assignment from hell—supervising his most difficult client, Cole Taylor, the icy star with the reputation problem—she can’t refuse.

Never mind that Cole was her teenage celebrity crush… until they first met and he shattered her hero worship with one rude remark.

Cole Taylor is one bad headline away from losing everything. The elite goalie has spent years chasing a cup for his hometown. But after a family crisis sends him spiraling, his team delivers an ultimatum: clean up his act or get traded.

The last thing he wants is a relentlessly sunny babysitter watching his every move.

But their fiery banter soon turns into temptation. With both their careers on the line, will choosing each other cost them everything? Or are some rules just begging to be broken?

A swoon-worthy, grumpy x sunshine hockey romance with lots of spice, sharp banter, and big emotions.
