Cannon West left his hockey playing days behind to care for his dying
wife but has since found success on the other side of the bench. Now, as the
youngest head coach in league history, he’s hoping to lead the Pittsburgh
Titans to a winning season. The last thing he’s looking for is a relationship,
but life sometimes takes us in another direction.
The Pittsburgh Titans are still working to move on from the tragic plane
crash that forever changed the landscape of their organization. Having lost my
wife, I know all about grief and the guilt of survival which makes me uniquely
equipped to take this team to the next level. From the very first time I
stepped inside the Titans’ arena, I knew I was exactly where I needed to be.
New to town, I’m still establishing my routine, but I have the most
important aspect under control—the coffee shop where I stop on my way to the
arena every morning. A strong cup of java and the gorgeous manager who I can’t
help but chat up is quickly becoming my favorite way to start the day. But no
matter how much I enjoy the blush that stains Ava Cavanaugh’s cheeks with my
admittedly awkward attempt at flirting, I know it will never be more than
brazen banter with a new friend. My job consumes almost all my time, and I know
firsthand what that level of commitment can do to a relationship.
That
doesn’t mean I’m not open to some fun. My career comes first, but Ava
understands my boundaries. The only problem is that once I give into her
temptation, the rules I set for myself become blurred, and my mixed signals
hurt Ava—the one thing I promised I wouldn’t do. I’ve put myself in what seems
to be an untenable situation, but I’ve faced those before. Now I need to find
the strength to move past my fears, or risk losing my second chance at love with
the woman who has stolen my heart.
