Benched

Summary

She's my friend's little sister. But I've ached for her for years . . . and I won't be denied.

What does the star center for the Minnesota Caribou professional hockey team do in the face of the ultimate betrayal?

Right, I've sworn off women because I caught my fiancée with my brother. Now, they're both dead to me. They represent an ache so deep I might never recover.

I've never known a goal I couldn't score—or a girl I couldn't score with. Until I see her curled up in a sexy ball in my hospital room.

She's off limits. Julia Wales is lush, smart, more determined than I am, and one hundred percent taboo. For the first time in my life, I want someone I can't have. She's the successful business owner who obeys every rule. I'm the guy who breaks them.

Not since my injury have I shown a woman my scars. Until now . . . and there's no going back.

Contains mature themes.
