Pucking The Single Dad

A Hockey Romance

By: Riley Keenan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When custody threats force them to fake a relationship, Serena discovers that loving Brad's son is easy. It's pretending not to love his father that might destroy her.

Brad built his walls high after losing his wife, focusing only on hockey and his asthmatic son, until a snowstorm delivers temptation in the form of the sunshine teacher next door.

I came to this small mountain town for a fresh start, not to fall for the grumpy hockey player next door.

Single dad Brad is everything I should avoid. Guarded, emotionally unavailable, and completely focused on his adorable seven-year-old son, Finn. Brad has built walls higher than the surrounding peaks, and he's made it clear that romance isn't in his playbook.

But when a record-breaking snowstorm damages my cabin and leaves me with nowhere to go, Brad reluctantly offers his guest room. Suddenly, I'm playing house with a man who watches me like I'm both his greatest temptation and biggest threat.

The forced proximity should be temporary. Instead, I find myself falling into a dangerous routine. Helping Finn with his asthma, and stealing heated glances with his dad over late-night wine.

Every day blurs the lines between neighborly kindness and something deeper. Brad's friend keeps making jokes about our domestic bliss. Finn draws pictures of us as a family. And those walls Brad built? They're crumbling faster than my resolve to keep things platonic.

Then Brad's former in-laws threaten custody, and suddenly we're pretending to be a couple to protect Finn. Fake dating is dangerous when real feelings are involved, especially when I'm already halfway in love with a man who's forgotten how to believe in second chances.

the love
