Face-Off by Ellie Rae

I never thought I would have been a teen mom. I also never thought I’d be raising my kid alone.

That’s what happened when I told Boyce Cameron he was going to be a father. He left me high and dry to chase his dream in the NHL. Leaving me with a bouncing baby boy and a broken heart.

I swore I’d never love again.

Well that was the plan till I met him, Brooks Miller. The team captain for the Seattle Skipjacks and my new patient. See where I’m heading here. A big conflict of interest between doctor and patient. So, I pushed him away and built up walls so high to freeze him out.

But seeing him interact with my child had the walls I built, slowly chipping away and quickly falling for him. It’s been 10 years since I let love in. Can I trust Brooks with my heart?

The answer is yes.

However, it could all crumble in a matter of moments thanks to a secret I’m hiding.
