They call me the golden boy, the notorious serial dater, the NHL’s most sought-after bachelor.
That’s what the media says, anyway. I wish I could deny their accuracy, but the truth is, I’ve lost sight of who I really am.
Caught between a heart-wrenching ex-girlfriend and a string of disastrous dates, it’s become painfully clear: I’m tired of being Adam Lockwood.
Then, my dog decides to play cupid, leading me to a woman with rose gold locks, captivating green eyes, and an infectious smile. She doesn’t recognize me, and for once, I’m grateful. She sees beyond the facade, beyond the hockey mask.
Rosie shares everything with me—her joys, her sorrows, and her son. But I’m clutching onto parts of myself too tightly, afraid to let go of the pieces she might not accept.
A harmless fib morphs into a looming secret, and I fear there may be more lurking in the shadows.
Now, my greatest longing has become my deepest dread.
I’m afraid she’ll uncover the truth and unravel me.
