A Christmas Heartcheck by Denver Shaw

The stranger Kieran spent the night with was never supposed to become front-page news.

But the morning after their snow-covered Christmas hookup, Kieran discovers the man he spent the night with is Thane Hale—professional hockey’s golden boy—and he’s coming out as bisexual to the entire world.

At twenty-nine, Thane has spent years controlling every part of his image. One quiet drink before the headlines hit was supposed to help him breathe.
Instead, he found Kieran.
Young. Beautiful. Completely unaware of who Thane was.
And for one perfect night, Thane got to feel normal again.
Now he can’t stay away.
Not when Kieran looks at him like the headlines don’t matter.
Not when one holiday hookup is starting to feel dangerously real.
And Kieran?
Kieran is starting to realize he doesn’t just want Thane for Christmas.
He wants him for keeps.
