He’s the goalie she swore she wouldn’t love. She’s the future he never thought he’d find.
Briggs I always believed in happily-ever-after. I just never thought it belonged to me. Then Tia Monroe told me to get lost. Everyone says she doesn’t date hockey players.
Her eyes tell me there’s a reason. I intend to find out what it is. And then I’m changing the ending. Because Tia isn’t a game to win. She’s the future I never thought I’d find.
And I’m not giving up until she believes in forever again.
Tia Getting kids into college? Easy. Dating a hockey player? Never again. I already know how that story ends… In humiliating bets and being treated like a prize.
But Briggs Ward refuses to fit the mold. He won’t stop showing up. And he won’t stop treating me like I’m something precious.
The more I learn about him, the more I realize we’re both carrying scars neither of us deserved. I swore I’d never fall for a man like him. But I’m beginning to think there is no one else like him.
There’s just Briggs. And somehow, without me ever seeing it coming, he’s changing everything I thought I knew about love.
