Coach Tommy Hark

My world revolves around two things: Hockey… and my daughter Clara. Since my “ex” left Clara with the door attendant of my apartment building five years ago, I’ve managed to make it work pulling double duty. Coach of the best professional hockey team in the league plus mom and dad. Would that be triple duty? Whatever. When my go-to babysitter has to bow out to finish her education before taking the bar, I find myself struggling to be everything to everyone for the first time ever. A chance encounter sends me the solution in the body that would have the devil praying for forgiveness.

You can't go home again. Well, I mean—I could. Technically. Nothing's been said or done to banish me from my parents’ homestead in Oklahoma; I just know that’s not the place for me. The issue is, even working at Charleston’s, the preferred bar for the local pro hockey team, it’s difficult making ends meet. When my friend Bitsy shoots me some insider info on a prominent man needing a live-in sitter, it seems like all my prayers have been answered. Can I ignore the fact he’s the most delicious man I’ve ever seen? I need this job too much to be tempted by his rock-hard abs. His shaggy hair. His calloused hands. The way he is with his daughter…

Is mixing business with pleasure a recipe for disaster?
