PENALTY Kiss: AN OPPOSITES ATTRACT FORCED PROXIMITY SMALL TOWN PROTECTOR HOCKEY ROMANCE (Cedar Falls Romance)
Ever watch 50 First Dates?
Now add Suits—and a LOT MORE STEAM!
Yeah, I may have dry-humped a hockey legend in a dark alley.
Before you judge—he did save me from a stalker.
There was gratitude. Then tongue. And a little bit of grinding before I bolted.
The problem?
Cameron Wilder’s got a concussion. His memory flickers like bad Wi-Fi.
He doesn’t remember the alley, the kiss… me.
Meanwhile, my photographic memory replays that penalty-box fantasy in 4K slow-mo—on auto-repeat.
Now he's my live-in bodyguard—strutting around half-naked, dropping towels with a smirk like it's his favorite pastime.
I should hate him. Instead, I’m falling—hard.
Because even when his brain glitches, his instincts don't.
One hand pulls me close, shielding me on reflex—”Stay behind me”—hero mode, activated.
The next breath, he looks lost. “—sorry, have we met?”—and still protect me anyways.
And the truth? I’m not really Tara Haynes.
I’m a secret heiress on the run, with a target on my head.
Falling for the man who might forget he loves me but fights every day to keep me—every curve, every taste, every part of us—memorized.
~ Protector hero. Hidden heiress. Only one bed. Enemies to lovers meets small-town hockey heat.
