The Night Before: A Seattle Sasquatch M/M Holiday Romance - Paperback
by Harper Robson (Author)
The hottest night of my life comes to a screeching halt the second I realize who his family is...
BEN
Public speaking is, I'm reasonably sure, going to kill me. So when my friend Declan offers to take me out for a drink the night before I have to make a speech in front of a room full of pro athletes, I'm in. Which leads to one of the hottest nights of my life with an incredible guy - twelve years younger, twice as confident, and the first person in months who's made me feel anything at all. Then I spot the photo on his bookshelf and recognize the man holding the Stanley Cup. Kent Warren is the man who ended my step-dad's hockey career with a vicious hit fifteen years ago. And I just slept with his son.
ALEKS
Hockey players do not do it for me. With two brothers in the NHL, a sister with two Olympic hockey medals, and a Hall-of-Famer dad, I know exactly how that particular sausage is made - and I'll pass, thank you very much. So when I learn the gorgeous, slightly nerdy guy at the bar is literally a brain surgeon - sign me up for that. Twelve hours of the best sex of my life later, and he's gone. No note, no number, no nothing. I tell myself I don't care. I have zero patience for men who can't be bothered to say goodbye. Then he walks into my fundraiser the next night with a keynote address on the helmet safety trial my team is about to participate in, and I realize I do, in fact, care. A lot.
A cutting-edge helmet trial. Years of bad blood between two families. And one Christmas Eve where the question changes from whether they can survive their fathers' history to whether they're brave enough to choose anything else.
Tropes: Opposites Attract, Age Gap, One-Night-Stand to Lovers, Workplace Forced Proximity, Forbidden (Family Bad Blood), MM Hockey-World Romance, and the Stanley Cup used as an ice-cream sundae bowl.
