A sizzling laugh-out-loud age gap hockey romance full of spice, smooches, and swoons! Rhode Tremblay is Nashville’s Naughtiest Hockey Player — at least, that’s what everyone believes after the Tenerife Incident. With a thigh tattoo that’s catnip for women and a wicked smirk that needs a warning label, everyone flocks to the NHL’s resident bad boy. Sure, Rhode accidentally set a yacht on fire while bringing a woman to the brink of ecstasy, but that happened over a decade ago. Now, at thirty-three, Rhode’s searching for something real. He’s ready to get down on one knee for the right person, but he has one rule — no dating anyone under thirty. Philomena “Nina” Alstyne has sworn off men who look like fallen angels on skates. The feisty art student is done molding herself to fit someone else’s life after her relationship fiasco. At twenty-two, Nina’s last semester of college is about her pottery dreams. Except, when one fateful accident forces Nina into a faux situationship with Nashville’s (Supposed) Naughtiest, all her curated plans crumble like a fragile sculpture. Rhode falls first, and he falls hard. There’s only one problem… Rhode thinks he’s fake dating a thirty-year-old doctor. As secrets get revealed, his biggest temptation quickly becomes off-limits, but Nina soon realizes the cross-stitching cat daddy is what the chaos in her soul craves — and Nina’s fiery passion might burn hot enough to melt Rhode’s icy boundaries.
