Who knew moving next to a hockey player would change my life?
Looking for a fresh start, away from the impossible-to-meet expectations of my family in Texas, I take a job in Seattle.
But my antagonistic new neighbor seems to be determined to make my new home as hostile as the one I came from. On the first day, he slams the door in my face when I’m moving in, makes me drop my box and break one of the keepsakes my grandmother passed down to me, and doesn’t even apologize!
It’s okay, though. I repay the favor at every chance I get. Until one day, I see him panicking, his car dead, clearly late for something important, judging by his suit.
Unable to help myself, I give him a jump, and end up helping him replace his battery after he’s back from his first preseason game. That’s right. Jerky neighbor with the dead battery? He’s a professional hockey player.
He insists on paying me back for my help with tickets to the first game of the season. We go out for drinks afterward and end up starting a friendship that’s everything I needed in this lonely new city.
He’s the perfect friend, and sometimes I think he’d be the perfect boyfriend too, except neither of us are focused on dating right now. With past bad relationships making us gun shy, friendship seems the best, and safest, choice.
Until one fateful night, when he kisses me.
Then acts like he regrets it immediately.
Now my only friendship here is screwed, my mom’s hounding me about coming home for Christmas, where it turns out my ex-fiancé—and Dad’s right hand man—is engaged, and my shiny new life is in tatters around me. Could something start going right, please?
