Perfect for you if...

  • You love contemporary romance with genuine chemistry and banter that makes you laugh out loud between the steam.
  • You're drawn to roommates-to-lovers and forbidden romance tropes where the tension actually builds across the story.
  • You want a book that balances heart with heat: a hero who's thoughtful and present, not just filthy-mouthed.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer slow-burn romance where physical attraction takes a back seat to emotional development.
  • You're not interested in hockey culture or sports-adjacent settings and cast lists.
  • You dislike the 'rule breaking' trope or find the setup too contrived to enjoy the payoff.

About this book

When Josie moves across the country, a forbidden romance with her brother's hockey teammate is the last thing she expects. After getting locked out of a friend's apartment, she spends the night with a stranger who helps her—only to discover the next morning that he's Wes, the new hotshot player on her brother's team and her brand new roommate. Josie is a librarian and rule-follower who doesn't do complicated flings. She and Wes agree to stay friends only. But Wes is bossy, flirty, and generous. He gives her rides to work, helps with her library's fundraiser, and takes care of her when she's hurt. As he looks at her like she's the only one, Josie finds herself falling hard. When Wes tells her exactly how he'd like to break their rules—every single one—their roommate situation becomes increasingly difficult to navigate. This is a teammate's little sister, roommates-to-lovers, forbidden romance with forced proximity.
