Worth the Shot (Maine Mountaineers Series Book 1)

Delaney Collins lives by three rules: stay away from hockey players, avoid catching feelings, and when all else fails, bake.

Ever since the man she thought she’d marry left town without her, Delaney has perfected the art of keeping people at arm’s length. Between twelve-hour shifts as a trauma nurse, her chaotic family, and enough stress baking to feed half of Hartwell, Maine—she’s doing just fine on her own.

Then Brennan Hale arrives.

The NHL superstar is annoyingly handsome, relentlessly optimistic, and completely unwilling to take the hint that Delaney would like to be left alone. No matter how many sarcastic comments or carefully constructed walls she throws his way, Brennan sees right through them. Before long, he becomes the one person she can’t stop thinking about.

Just as Delaney begins to imagine a future she never thought she’d want, the past comes skating back into town.

Now she’s caught between the heartbreak that taught her not to trust and the man who makes her want to try anyway. But when one life-altering moment threatens everything, Delaney must decide whether love is worth the shot.

Because the scariest part of falling isn’t getting hurt.
