Produktbeschreibung
When professional NHL goalie Ellis Karlsson shares a steamy night with rinkside reporter Monica Rose, neither expects it to lead to a life-changing surprise: a baby on the way. Bound by more than just their professional ties to the Minnesota Grizzlies, Ellis and Monica must navigate an unexpected pregnancy, living with one another, and the possibility of something more. As they work together to prepare for parenthood, Ellis is also searching for the sibling he lost touch with in a Swedish orphanage, a ghost from his past he can't quite let go. Monica, meanwhile, is learning how to untangle herself from a childhood where she was forced to grow up too fast, raising her younger sister like a daughter and building walls so high that no one has successfully knocked down, until now. Both are fiercely independent, both guarded by wounds that never fully healed, and both are terrified of falling for someone who could break their heart. Surrounded by their tight-knit group of friends and teammates, Ellis and Monica slowly find comfort in one another. But love, like hockey, demands risk. And if they want to build something real, not just for themselves, but for the family they're creating, they'll have to face the past, trust the present, and fight for the future.
Autorenporträt
Jordyn Griffin is the author of emotional, slow-burning sports romances where passion on the ice meets heart off the page. Her novels, What If, Least Expected, and Defensive Play, explore love, resilience, and the unexpected plays life throws our way. A proud Californian with a B.S. in Agricultural Science and a background in education, Jordyn blends small-town charm with the high-stakes intensity of professional sports in her writing. When she's not crafting her next story, you can find her buried in a good book, cheering from the sidelines of a hockey game, enjoying a strong cup of coffee, or enjoying the quiet freedom of horseback riding.
