A woman who can't stand a cocky hockey star finds herself drawn into a secret romance with him. As their hidden relationship grows, keeping it from the people around them threatens to unravel everything.
Oh right, honey, we've got a new coach. Her voice sounded exactly like yours, But I swear I didn't even look at her. I glanced at Ethan not far away, still typing on his phone. My heart was beating so fast, it felt like it might jump out of my chest.
Jimmy and the others pressed me to show them how I got my body fat percentage so I tried to deflect, but they wouldn't take no for an answer. I paused my conversation with my boyfriend to accommodate them. Out with some friends right now. Let's talk later.
Babe, any guys in that group? Not that I'm jealous, just asking. About five or six guys. The next second, Ethan shoved his chair back. The violent scrape that made me jump.
Hey, Captain, why don't you come see how she built up that kind of strength? She held her own against you that day. I felt a genuine spark of anticipation. Even though I was officially a coach for the Glacier, as a fan of his raw talent,
getting his recognition would be a dream come true for me. But Ethan didn't even turn around. I don't talk shop over dinner. I wouldn't give up.
I held up my phone, screen glowing with the footage. My training isn't as amateur as you think. Just one look? Sorry, I don't mix business with social life.
And remember the ground rules. With that, he rose and strode out of the restaurant. Don't sweat it, Chloe. Everyone except Ethan wants to pick your brain.
I've always hated when unfamiliar men got too comfortable. I'm honestly curious. Can yoga really build that much muscle? His voice cut off abruptly.
He was staring at my screen, frozen.
