Don't tell a soul, but I walked away from my NHL career for one reason: Josie Richards.
Fifteen years younger, yet she owns me in ways no one could understand. She's my enemy on ice—a figure skating ice queen with a rebellious streak that makes more than my palm twitch. But after her ice skating accident, she's broken. Fear controls her now, and I'm done watching her drawn in it. I'm her new coach—on and off the ice—and I'll drag her back to the top if it's the last thing I do. What didn't I expect? Knocking her up. I thought raising my niece prepared me for fatherhood. Turns out, Christmas brought more than presents. She's pregnant—with triplets. Now she thinks her Olympic dreams are gone. Not on my watch. One slip, and I lose it all—my reputation, my heart, maybe even my sanity. But I'll push her to her limits, make her fear me more than the ice. And when she breaks... I'll be there, ready to claim every piece of her. Even if it makes me the Grinch of her Christmas story. Pucking Christmas Triplets Surprise is a standalone spicy, angsty dark college hockey holiday romance with a possessive hero 'touch her and die vibes' with one goal in mind... claiming his curvy ice queen. Enjoy!
