About this audiobook

One night. One mistake. And now he's starting in my net. David O'Shea has spent thirty-four years building an identity that has no room for what he actually wants. Captain of the Boston Harriers. Father of three. The kind of leader men follow into playoff overtime and reporters describe with words like steadfast and professional. His carefully ordered life doesn't have cracks in it. Then Josh Webber walks into his brother's wedding, and David spends one irresponsible, honest, terrifying night finding out exactly what he's been missing. He's gone before morning. Deletes the number. Blocks the texts. Tells himself it was a mistake — that the warmth of Josh's hands and the way his name sounded in a dark hotel room were things he can un-want if he just works hard enough. Two weeks later, management announces a trade. Josh Webber is now a Boston Harrier. Josh knows exactly who he is and what he wants, and what he wants is the captain who bolted from his hotel room like David himself was the danger. He's not naive enough to think one night means forever. But he's also not willing to stand in the same locker room and pretend David O'Shea doesn't look at him like the world might end if he lets himself get too close. Forced onto the same ice, into the same road trips, into the same carefully constructed life David has been guarding for decades, they spend a season circling each other — closer every week, messier every month — all the way to the edge of the Stanley Cup Final. Where David is going to have to decide, once and for all, if the man who gave him everything was ever really a mistake at all. Off-Limits Ice Captain is a slow-burn MM hockey romance featuring a closeted NHL captain, a charming playboy goalie, a one-night-stand-to-forced-proximity setup, a coming-out arc, three kids who steal every scene they're in, and a happily ever after that arrives just in time for Game One. No cliffhanger.
