Small town life in Elmwood is simple and predictable—until Beckett Hayes skates into my heart. To the public, he’s a hockey legend. To those closest to him, he’s a man with a heart as big as his hidden billion-dollar fortune, longing for something money can’t buy—family, love, and belonging. I never expected to fall for anyone. My world revolves around my son, Jake. But Beckett is a whirlwind I never saw coming. He’s kind, patient and completely irresistible. His broad shoulders, messy blonde hair and gorgeous green eyes would make any woman swoon. I promised myself that I would never love again after the tragic death of my first husband. But when this persistent hockey hero says he’s “all in” for me, I think he just might be my happily-ever-after. Maybe love is worth the risk.
