A Hockey Stick Across the Black Ice

Novella. On New Year's Eve, Rhett Lindqvist crawled across breaking black ice with nothing but a hockey stick to reach Wren Halloway's daughter. Poppy survived. The fallout might not. By morning, Wren's ex-husband has driven up from Chicago, and an emergency custody battle threatens to take Poppy away from Esker Lake for good. Rhett is named in the motion as a dangerous influence. Grant has moved into the motel across the street, and the whole town of Wren's fresh start is watching. Rhett has always been the grumpy hero who handles things himself. Now he and his ex-wife Dana have to show a frightened father what healthy co-parenting looks like, and they have to invite him into their messy blended family to do it. Then Rhett's twelve-year-old son confesses something about that night that could win the case for Grant and break Wren's heart. Rhett has to choose between protecting his child and telling the woman he loves the truth, and the hearing is Friday. This emotional romance is a steamy single parent romance and a hockey dad romance about two families trying to hold together in the middle of a small town hockey season that has turned frightening. It ends on a cliffhanger you won't see coming.
