Breakaway is a slow-burn brother’s best friend hockey romance with a childhood crush, a wounded hero learning to ask for help, and a heroine who knows exactly what she’s worth. Perfect for fans of Liz Tomforde, Lauren Blakely and Tessa Bailey. I’m six teaspoons of Nutella deep into a very bad day when the man I’ve been crushing on since high school skates back into my life. Lance Jefferson is a Stanley Cup-winning hockey superstar and my brother’s best friend. He’s off-limits with a capital O. He’s also never looked at me as anything more than “Little Cassie.” But when my cheating ex struggles with the word “leave,” Lance steps in as my personal ex-terminator. Suddenly, Lance goes from indifferent to possessive, like I’m a woman he wants for himself. I should keep my distance. Falling for him is a spectacularly bad idea. It could blow up his friendship with my brother, scandalize my very opinionated family, and derail the business I’ve finally been brave enough to start. But when he’s standing in front of me, shirtless in the snow, suddenly the rules feel very, very breakable… Tropes: - Brother’s best friend - Sports romance - Curvy FMC - Mixed race MMC - Childhood crush - Found family - Hero in therapy - Family trauma - Protective hero - Dual POV Readers love the Mavericks Hockey series: “Cassie girllllllllllllll you living the dream… I loved this book, I devoured it in one day… I even put off my responsibilities because I couldn’t help but finish the book. So FREAKING GOOD. I now have to work twice as hard tomorrow to make up, totally worth it!” Reader review, 5 stars “Great storyline with so much emotion and all the feels with a sexy hockey god, and the equally sexy object of his adoring affection. They try to fight their attraction… as you can already guess, that lasted about a hot ass second. These two had so much heat and chemistry, gosh maybe they ruined me for all other couples too winks.” Reader review, 5 stars “Oh my god, this book is absolutely the best. The spunk of Cassie and the magnetic pull of sexy Lance is so fun to read. I couldn’t put this book down I was enjoying it so much!” Reader review, 5 stars “What a ride! Lance and Cassie had me on the edge of my seat. And I was pulled along by both of their journeys to where they needed to be. Can’t go past a wounded man and Lance was a sexy one at that! Cassie was a straight-shooting girl who learned to go after what she wanted, I loved her growth through this book!! And that ending? Just amazing!! Highly recommend this book for anyone wanting a spicy and heartwarming romance read!!” Reader review, 5 stars “I loved this book, the story was so well written that it had me feeling all sorts of emotions! The sexual tension between Cassie & Lance was oozing off the page and the spice was hot! Highly recommend!” Reader review, 5 stars “Wow. Loved reading this book and couldn’t put it down. Lance is HOT!… Pure escapism!” Reader review, 5 stars
