About this listen
And now she’s touching me in all the ways I’m not allowed to want.
Emma Bennett is sunshine and sass with a smile that could heal any bad day. She’s also my physical therapist. Here to get me back on the ice and keep me in line.
I’m back in our hometown to recover, not to relive the past.
But she’s setting the rules and testing every last bit of my control.
With her hands on my body every day, it’s impossible to keep things professional.
The more she pushes me away, the more I pull her closer.
Emma isn’t just the girl I can’t have.
She’s the girl I want under me, with me, completely mine.
She looks at me like I’m not just an injured athlete on borrowed time.
Emma makes me want something more than just a comeback.
I’ve been hit hard on the ice.
But nothing leveled me like falling for her.
Now the team wants me back in the city.
If I go…I might lose the only thing that’s ever felt real.

Story
My ex left me at the altar. His best man left me breathless. As a YouTube creator, the whole world watched my groom run off with my bridesmaid. So, I took my daughter and ran to a remote hot springs resort to heal my broken heart. Imagine my shock when the grumpy CEO from my almost-wedding shows up. Liam, who stood by and watched as my world crumbled, is now my neighbor at the resort. At first, he keeps his distance. Gruff. Guarded. Escaping the world he built—and everything it cost him. But soon, we’re sharing touches that linger too long, walks under the stars with stolen kisses, and ...
