Hannah Wells is 37 weeks pregnant with twins, exhausted, emotional, and absolutely over being pregnant. While her fiancé, hockey star Garrett Graham, is away during a road series before the Stanley Cup playoffs, Hannah ends up labeled high-risk after falling down her porch steps and bruising her hip. Garrett immediately goes into overprotective mode, insisting she stay home and rest while their friends keep an eye on her. But Hannah hates sitting still. Determined to reclaim even a tiny bit of independence, she sneaks out for ice cream while Garrett is still on the road-only for him to catch her in the grocery store. Their argument is filled with bickering, teasing, and the kind of love that only comes from years together. Garrett is terrified something could happen to Hannah or the babies, while Hannah struggles with feeling trapped inside her own body and tired of everyone treating her like glass.

In chapter 16 of The Deal (Off Campus 1), Hannah and Garrett have their first kiss, initially motivated by a dare. Their kiss is interrupted by Dean. Hannah, mortified, then kisses Dean to throw him off of the scent of her desire for Garrett. The next chapter (17) describes Hannah and Garretts lingering desire for each other following that kiss, but I have always wondered, what would happen if they had an opportunity to finish that kiss and address the Dean interruption? So I wrote one. Enjoy!

This is a story of obsession that feels like protection, dominance that masks fear, and longing that survives even when love fails. In this book, Ates love too fiercely and say too little. Mercan feel too deeply and wait too long. Between them lie moments that could have changed everything but didn't. Graveyard confessions, late-night drives heavy with unsaid truths, stolen touches that linger longer than words, every story captures a fragment of a love that was never simple. This book is not about happy endings. It is about almosts, afters, and what remains. For readers who believe that sometimes love don't fade they fracture, and live on quietly inside us.
