Keeping Score

Betrayal, Revenge & Receipts at the Rink - Book 1

De: Avery Alton

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

The woman in my jacket is laughing for the cameras.

It's the custom playoff jacket my fiancé told me to clear my calendar for. *A surprise.* It is a surprise. It's just not mine. His influencer ex is wearing it under three live cameras, and when I stop breathing, Chase calls me jealous. Tells me not to make a scene. Tells everyone I'm not myself.

Here's the thing about me, though: I run a children's charity. I keep the books. I keep the receipts.

Because the glam, the hotel, the "media activation" that crowned her? My donors paid for it. Chase didn't just replace me on camera. He ran sponsor money through my foundation and covered the gap with the funds meant to put kids on the ice. He built his whole brand on optics. He never once imagined optics keep timestamps.

There's a man on the team's side who finds the same paper trail I do. He doesn't try to save me. He reads the receipts and knows exactly who I am.

Chase wanted me quiet until playoffs. He's going to wish I'd only gotten loud.

A standalone hockey betrayal-revenge romance with no cliffhanger, read in any order. Features: a cheating fiancé who's wealthy and powerful, a structural-betrayal money trail, a competent heroine who documents instead of spiraling, a public confrontation, ex regret, and a genuinely good better man (heat lands only after she's free; no cheating between the final couple). Warm heat. HFN. A quick, satisfying binge.
