A Steamy Forbidden Therapist Player Hockey Romance
He breaks bones for a living.
She’s the one woman who sees through him.
Silas Kane is the Steel Wards’ most feared enforcer.
On the ice, he’s unstoppable.
Off the ice, he’s a man held together by anger, silence… and secrets no one can touch.
Until one brutal hit destroys his shoulder and puts his future in the hands of Brianna Sullivan.
She’s sunshine in human form.
A top physical therapist who refuses to be intimidated by his size or the walls he hides behind.
The more she rebuilds his body, the more she gets under his skin.
Every touch lingers.
Every look burns.
Every session pushes them closer to a line they can’t cross.
Because she’s his therapist.
And one mistake could cost her everything.
But for Silas, this isn’t just desire.
It’s the first time he’s ever wanted something more than control.
And when a relentless journalist starts digging into the past he’s buried, Silas is forced to make a choice:
Disappear behind the walls that kept him safe…
Or fight for the one woman who makes him want to stay.
