Sudden Death (Book 3)

Novella. Fifteen years ago he left without a word. Now he's my roommate for the Cup run. Jonah Pike is the nicest man in pro hockey. He runs a learn-to-skate charity, remembers every trainer's kid's birthday and never has a bad word for anyone except Wes Halloran, the Voyageurs defenseman whose hit shattered Jonah's leg five years ago, and whose name Jonah hasn't said out loud since. Nobody knows the rest: at eighteen, in a Halifax junior rink, Wes was his first love, until the night before the draft, when Wes disappeared from his life without a word. Now it's deadline day, and Portland has just traded for the most hated man in hockey. His road roommate for the rest of the season is Jonah Pike. Wes knows exactly how much Jonah hates him, and he knows he deserves it. What he can't tell anyone is why he left, or that his knee is failing and this is his last run. One room. One stretch run. One shot at a Cup, and a Final against Wes's old team, whose enforcer has a score to settle with Jonah. Touch him and you die. SUDDEN DEATH is the explosive, swoony conclusion to the Shared Ice series: a steamy, emotional MM hockey novella with grumpy x sunshine, second-chance rivals-to-lovers, forced proximity, secret history and a playoff overtime you'll never forget. Every couple returns for the final game. HEA guaranteed.
