About this audiobook

One night with him was a mistake. Then he walked in wearing her brother's coaching staff lanyard. Molly O'Brien trusts the sound of hockey tape ripping more than she trusts most people. It means order. Control. One less broken bone for the brother she's protected since he was eight. She's the best equipment manager in the league, and she keeps her head down, her hands busy, and her heart locked in the gear room. Then a stranger in a bar. A single, reckless, perfect night. A morning she swore she'd never repeat. And then he shows up at the rink. Tall. Lean. A graying scar at his temple and an uneven gait he favors on cold mornings. The new man on her brother Liam's bench. The one person on Earth she cannot touch. To the team, he's the answer to a losing season. To Molly, he's the worst secret she's ever kept. They are friction and silence and slammed doors. Locker-room tension thick enough to skate on. A bet they both lose. Words neither can take back. Because if anyone finds out, she loses the job that lets her keep Liam safe. Then a trade nobody saw coming puts everything on the line, and the wall she built finally cracks. She tells him it can't happen again. He steps in close and says: "Then tell me to stop. Say it, and I'm gone." That's the moment she can't say it. Now he's offering her the one thing she stopped letting herself want. But enemies don't become forever without breaking something first. And a last chance, once it's gone, doesn't skate back. If he wants the woman who keeps everyone but herself, he'll have to prove he's worth the only thing she's never risked. Her own heart. Breakaway Hearts is a steamy, emotional enemies-to-lovers hockey romance about a one-night stand, forbidden attraction, locker-room tension, forced proximity, a protective heroine, and a last chance at forever. Perfect for readers who love enemies-to-lovers sports romance, forbidden romance, one-night-stand-to-more, slow-burn heat, and a happily-ever-after worth the fight. A standalone hockey romance with an epilogue.
