Over the Line (Colorado Storm #4)

An accidental pregnancy, age gap hockey romance

The plan was supposed to be simple. Heal, rehab, get back on the ice.

Definitely don’t let anything past the line—especially Dr. Carina Park.

She’s the last person I should want. Too young and off-limits. Too focused on her career as an orthopaedic surgeon. She has a spine of steel and doesn't flinch, no matter how grumpy I get.

But from the second she puts me back together after my knee blows out, I know I’m in trouble. Because under all that armor, she’s fire and focus and the kind of soft I’ve always respected.

So when one unexpected night turns into something neither of us planned for, the line between what’s right and what’s real stops feeling so clear, and I stop pretending I don’t want more.

Nothing about this is simple. She’s built her life in the OR, and I’ve built mine protecting the goal line. Now we’re both fighting for something we never saw coming.

She wasn't part of my plan, but I've never wanted anything more.

And if she wants me too, I’ll gladly step over the line.
