Defending the Reaper: A Tortured Hero Redemption Hockey Romance

Written by G.K. Brady

Narrated by Tor Thom and Whitton Frank

Take one grumpy hockey player, add one frazzled landscaper, and mix together not-so-gently in one car crash. Can they survive with their hearts intact?

Blizzard captain Dave Grimson’s life is as tangled as a wad of skate laces—and it’s a mess he’s created. It’s time to piece his life back together, and he’s looking for a fresh start. Until he collides with Ellie Hendricks. Literally.

Ellie’s struggling to keep her landscaping company afloat; the last thing she needs is growly Dave crashing into her.

Dave’s determination to make up for his latest screwup leads his heart into dangerous territory. Ellie wants nothing from him except to have her van fixed, but as he lowers his defenses, she glimpses something compelling. Dave’s got secrets, though, and she can’t solve them or his mixed signals.

Keeping it casual is the smart play, but Dave and Ellie’s mutual attraction pulls them into the deep end … until those secrets come home to roost. Can they keep their heads above water, or will they be caught in a surge that drowns them both?
