Book 1 of the Wild Heart Series!
When Brooks Ellis lands a dream job as the newest photographer for the Minnesota Wild, she jumps at the chance to leave her old life behind. A new city, a new career, and a newfound sense of independence-everything seems to be falling into place. But between navigating a high-stakes sports world, making unexpected friendships, and dodging the ghosts of her past, Brooks quickly realizes that starting over isn't as simple as it seems.
Then there's Brayden Rivas-cocky, charming, and a rising star on the ice. The last thing Brooks needs is a distraction, but Brayden isn't one to be ignored. When their worlds collide, chemistry sparks, and suddenly, keeping her heart out of the game isn't so easy.
As Brooks captures the action behind the scenes, she must also confront the reality of her own story. Because sometimes, the hardest picture to frame is the one of yourself.
