Keeping it Real
His best friend stole his girl—and married her.
Now, Milwaukee Mayhem goalie Alek Bergeron is riding payback straight to the top of his game. He’s got one goal left: hoist the Cup and rub it in his former best friend’s face. But just as the season is about to start, a phone call from the past lands like a body check to the gut.
A twist of fate.
Sheridan Cobert has made a career out of caring for others, but nothing prepares her for the loss of her only sibling—or the shock of learning he named Alek Bergeron, not her, as guardian of her nephew. The same Alek who shattered her teenage heart nearly a decade earlier.
Alek’s life is on the ice, his schedule insane. The last thing he needs is a rambunctious little boy and a jockstrap-murdering dog—not to mention the not so little sister of the guy he hates—upending his neatly ordered world. But neither of them is willing to give up custody, so they strike a fragile truce: cohabitation until the end of the season.
What could go wrong?
Only everything.
Because sharing his home with the girl he was never supposed to touch is messing with Alek’s game. Especially now that she’s grown into a tempting, sexy woman. For her part, Sheridan is having difficulty keeping her lips off the guy she’s crushed on for half her life. As the season heats up, so do the nights—and so does the guilt. Because Sheridan is keeping a decade-old secret that could destroy the fragile future their makeshift family is building.
