Pucked off the Ice

A Spicy Hockey Romance About a Broken Captain and the Woman Who Heals Him

A career-ending injury forces grumpy hockey captain Tyler Erickson into the care of Brianna Peterson, the relentlessly sunny physical therapist who’s now his only hope. It’s a classic case of forced proximity when a blizzard traps them in his apartment, leaving his cynical armor defenseless against her radiant optimism.

He’s spent his life believing his value is measured in goals and wins. She sees the wounded man beneath the ice, a man whose deepest scars have nothing to do with hockey. At Zenith Point Brewery, their city’s hub, their two worlds collide as she shows him the life he could have if he’d just let her in.

But when the NHL offers him a coaching job—a chance to reclaim the ghost of his old dream—he’s faced with an impossible choice.

Can he trade the only identity he’s ever known for a woman who sees the man he could be, or will his fear of being a liability cost him the only game that truly matters?
