Don't Cross the Blue Line (The Blue Ox Boys #2)

He’s the hockey player she can’t stop writing about. She’s the author he’s been anonymously writing to. When a blizzard traps them in a mall with thieves, the truth comes out—and so do the feelings.

Everly Hart lives a double life. By day, she’s E.J. Hartley, bestselling thriller writer. By night, she’s Sutton Blake, author of sweet hockey romances. Her latest project? A book about Beckett ‘Blue Line’ Benson—the disgraced Blue Ox center she can’t stop thinking about. He’s her ultimate book boyfriend.

Beckett’s secret: for six months, he’s been pouring his heart into anonymous fan mail to Sutton Blake, the only person who makes him feel seen beyond his stats.

Then a blizzard traps them in an abandoned mall—with thieves. Suddenly they’re living their own romantic suspense novel, and he’s the hero. She’ll have to figure out how to rewrite the plot without giving away her secret. But when you’re trapped with the man you’ve been writing about—and he’s been writing to you—some secrets refuse to stay hidden.

Can two people who’ve been writing each other’s stories survive the plot twist neither of them saw coming?

A hilarious, heart-pounding hockey rom-com about book boyfriends coming to life, secret identities, and falling in love while dodging thieves.
