Checked hearts

Three months. Two broken hearts.

NHL star Leo Sutherland is living a nightmare in the spotlight. His best friend is marrying the absolute love of his life. In the past the three of them tried to defy reality in a secret throuple, but Leo ultimately walked away to save his own sanity. Now, he's trapped in a pristine, lonely penthouse, desperately hunting for a rebound just to stop replaying the wreckage of his past.

Enter Ivy Parker.

Dumped by her high school sweetheart after a decade together, Ivy is drowning in self-loathing. He's out chasing cheap thrills, yet he still knows exactly which buttons to push to pull her right back into his bed. She is desperate to find a way to finally say no.

When Miami's most calculated hockey player walks up to her corner booth and pitches a mutually beneficial rebound arrangement Ivy can't say anything but yes.

This story can be read as a standalone! However, if you want Leo's full backstory and the emotional setup, it is highly recommended to read "Phucking Throuple" first.
