Get Pucked by the Enforcer

He is paid to take the hit. She is paid to decide when he has taken one too many. Axel Krane is the Wolves' enforcer: fists, fines, headlines, and a body he treats like team property. Briar Hartley is the athletic trainer who sees every hidden injury and refuses to confuse pain tolerance with permission to keep playing. When Axel asks for her as his primary assignment, their chemistry ignites exactly where it should not. Briar draws rules. Axel listens. Then they break one together. But attraction is the easy risk. After their relationship crosses the treatment-room line, Briar reports the conflict and steps away from his routine care. Now every choice is public: his suspensions, her career, a divided locker room, and an ownership group that would rather protect a franchise asset than the people keeping him alive. To earn a future with Briar, Axel must learn that protection is not possession, loyalty is not silence, and love does not excuse the damage he chooses. To keep him, Briar must trust that a man built for violence can choose restraint when it matters most. Get Pucked by the Enforcer is a high-heat professional hockey romance featuring a fierce athletic-trainer heroine, a bruised and protective enforcer, forbidden workplace tension, injury recovery and hurt/comfort, explicit consent, public scandal, and a hard-won happily ever after. Book 1 of the interconnected Get Pucked series. Axel and Briar's romance is complete in this volume.
