At twenty-six, Clara Whitmore has built a life she can control. Her days are precise, her work as a dentist meticulous, and her heart... carefully protected. After everything she's faced, she's learned to rely only on herself. Luke Matthews, also twenty-six, is everything the world admires: talented, charming, and seemingly untouchable. A professional ice hockey star with a smile that could light up a city, he carries a weight that no one sees-a vulnerability behind the fame and the effortless confidence. Two years ago, their lives intersected for a fleeting, unforgettable night-one filled with laughter, warmth, and a spark neither of them could explain. But life pulled them apart, leaving memories that linger like shadows. Now, fate brings them together again. A chance meeting in Clara's clinic sets off a slow, teasing, and irresistible pull. Friendships are tested, walls are challenged, and hearts are pushed toward a possibility neither thought they could risk. Fracture Line is a slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance about love that sneaks up when you least expect it, the fragility of trust, and the invisible cracks in our lives that sometimes lead us to the people who can make us whole.

Now, I'm a twenty-six year old wash-out, a has-been with a fake knee who's never really dated and never had a boyfriend. Then I stumbled across a personal ad on the Internet.

Opening up to Zack was easy. Telling the truth could change everything.

After being caught, tried and arrested for a crime she didn't do; Lexi Hunter has a choice. It's either Juvie or spend the summer on her dad's ranch working off her probation. Should be an easy pick, right? Only problem is, she hasn't seen or spoken to her dad in ten years. The last time she saw him was through a car window as her mom drove them and all their possessions away to go live a normal, busy, eccentric lifestyle in New York. So basically, being back at a place she used to call home with a man she can't muster the respect for to actually call 'dad', is a prison sentence in itself. Lexi is determined to hate and ridicule everything about her situation. Wanting nothing more than to get the summer over with so she can go back to real life. That all changes when she meets Dawson Priest; the ranch hand who she is forced to work side by side with. His optimistic, simple, almost eloquent outlook on life, the world, and the small town ranch life in general sparks her to see things from his perspective and may even challenge her enough to mend the strained relationship with her dad. This is a story of self discovery, personal growth, a steamy cowboy fling, and learning the importance of forgiveness. This simple, small town life may not seem as much of a jail sentence by the end of the summer. Who knows, maybe Lexi turns out to be a country girl at heart after all.
