Love on the Blue Line: A Sweet Hockey Instalove RomCom Short Read

Star defenseman Rhett Carter can block anything that comes at him on the ice, but he's completely defenseless against June Rollins' sweet smile and delectable desserts...

June:

Running my own private chef business while dreaming of opening a dessert bakery keeps my hands full and my heart focused. I don’t have time for dating, especially not a grumpy hockey player who fills my entire kitchen doorway with his massive shoulders and intense blue eyes.

But when Rhett hires me to cater the Blue Ridge Buffaloes holiday charity banquet, I find myself falling faster than a failed soufflé. Between his unexpected sweet tooth, his dedication to helping hungry kids, and the way he looks at me like I'm his favorite dessert, my carefully organized life starts to melt like chocolate in a double boiler.

Rhett says he wants to help make my dreams come true. He says my kitchen chaos brings out his smile. And every time he tastes my white chocolate peppermint cheesecake, the look in his eyes makes me believe in Christmas miracles.

But with the holiday baking competition approaching and my bakery dreams on the line, I'll have to decide if I'm ready to let someone else into my kitchen—and my heart.

Trigger warnings: This book is full of hot kissing, Christmas cheer, peppermint, and body positivity from a plus-sized heroine. Read at your own pleasure!
