Nothing gets in the way of NHL superstar Cillian O’Rourke. Not the pressure of being hockey’s favorite bad-boy.
Not the endorsements that turned him into a global brand. And definitely not the woman who’s hated him for years.
Margot Bennett is the sommelier and head of client relations at Solstice Estates in the Napa Valley, and she’s spent years building a career in a world defined by taste, polish, and old-school standards.
Cillian O’Rourke is a pint of Guinness in a room full of Champagne. He’s Irish, charming, and impossible to ignore.
Margot and Cillian have a history together, the kind that lives rent-free in her head while he doesn’t even remember her name.
And now that Solstice Estates wants him as the face of their new wine label, Margot has no choice but to make it happen. The smart thing to do? Keep it professional. Keep her distance. Forget the past.
But forced proximity has a way of breaking things open. And when the tension between them finally snaps, it’s not just her reputation on the line—it’s everything she’s ever worked for.
Because in Cillian’s world, nothing interferes with the game.
