Behind the Net - Stephanie Archer
He's the hot, grumpy goalie I had a crush on in high school... and now I'm his live-in assistant.
After my ex shattered my dreams and left me swearing off love, the last thing I need is to fall for my new boss—especially when he’s Jamie Streicher, the infuriatingly hot, grumpy NHL star who barely tolerates me. Keeping things professional should be easy… until he demands I move in with him. But beneath his brooding exterior, Jamie is unexpectedly sweet, fiercely protective, and—once he learns how disappointing my ex was in bed—shockingly eager to prove he’s very different. Suddenly, I’m writing music again, getting swept up in wild team parties, and wearing his jersey like it means something. Falling for him is a terrible idea—he could break my heart all over again—but with Jamie, it just might be worth the risk.
