Sleeping with my teammate’s sister? Rookie mistake.
Getting her pregnant? Career-ending penalty.
They call me the Guru—the guy who never loses his cool, never breaks the code, and definitely doesn’t knock up his best friend’s little sister after one perfect, reckless night.
But judging by Beatrice’s new baby bump, six months ago, I did just that.
Now she’s back in New Orleans, gorgeous, glowing, and determined to do this solo. She doesn’t need my money, my help, or my suddenly inconvenient feelings.
Too bad. Because I’m not the kind of man who skates away from the woman I haven’t been able to stop thinking about since the moment she left.
So I show up. I prove I’m not just the guy who got her pregnant, but the friend who listens, the partner who’s got her back, and the lover who knows exactly how to make her forget why she ever thought romance might be dead.
And if keeping us a secret protects her peace? Fine. I’ll play along.
But secrets have a way of hitting the ice when you least expect it. And when ours does, I’ll have to prove to her brother, my team, and the woman I’m falling for that I’m not just chasing a win.
I’m playing for forever.
