Breakaway (Beyond the Play 2.)

Nothing screams captain material like messing around with the coach's daughter . . .

Cooper

As a pro-bound college ice hockey player, I usually have my pick of puck bunnies. But lately, I've been in a dry spell that feels more like a curse, and the stress is affecting my game - the one thing that can't happen if I'm going to make team captain.

Enter Penny Ryder.

She's my coach's daughter, but from the moment she grabs me on the ice rink, she's the only thing on my mind. She wants me to introduce her to all the things she's been dying to experience in the bedroom. If I say yes, I'll be relaxed on the ice again - but if her dad finds out, I can kiss any chance of being captain goodbye.

Penny

Thanks to the ex from hell, I'm a long way from being ready for a relationship - but it's finally time to reclaim my agency, one sexual experience at a time.

Enter Cooper Callahan.

He's the most casual guy I can think of - but he just so happens to be my hockey coach dad's star defenseman. The agreement is simple: become secret friends-with-benefits until he makes captain, whilst I cross off all the experiences on my list. Yet the longer our connection goes on, the less I want to say goodbye.

I know love can lead to heartbreak, but what if it could also clear the ice for a breakaway...?
