"You're on my schedule," he stated, his tone laced with an unusual intensity. "On your schedule?" I questioned, curiously. "We need to have sex." . . . Haunted by a tragic mistake during her residency, Dr. Angel Novak has reshaped her career, trading the hospital for sports medicine. When offered a prestigious fellowship with the world's most renowned hockey team in New York, she sees it as a fresh start, a chance to leave her past behind. Amid the fast-paced world of professional athletes, Angel's focus shifts to rehabilitating players and helping them reclaim their glory on the ice. But one player stands out, rude and distant - Eros Candreva, the team's goaltender. Despite Angel's diligent efforts, he avoids every appointment she schedules for him. As Angel delves deeper into Eros's mystery, she discovers he holds the answers to questions she never knew she had. Drawn together by an irresistible pull, they're entangled in a dance of secrets and unspoken desires. But with her professional ethics at stake, she's forbidden to cross the line between doctor and patient. Yet, as the intensity between them grows, Angel finds it harder to deny her feelings. Beneath Eros's icy facade lies a past as tumultuous as her own, and together, they might find healing. But when the truth finally surfaces, it threatens to shatter their fragile bond.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
