Home Ice

Cole Hendrix left Cedar Falls at eighteen with a hockey scholarship and a girl he never said a real goodbye to. Fourteen years, one NHL career, and one career-ending injury later, he's back - broken, purposeless, and doing his best not to notice that Maggie Doyle is still exactly the reason he never looked twice at anyone else.Maggie has spent three years holding the town's rink together with duct tape, stubbornness, and her late father's ancient Zamboni. She doesn't have room in her life for the boy who broke her heart without a word - no matter how good he still looks coaching seven-year-olds how to stop without falling over.When the rink's roof fails inspection and the whole town's winter is on the line, Cole and Maggie are forced back into each other's orbit - and into the conversation they should have had fourteen years ago.Home Ice is a sweet, small-town second-chance romance - no cheating, no cliffhanger, guaranteed happy ending.
