Taming Beckett: A Bad Boy Hockey Romance (The Playmakers Series® Book 1)

His career is in the penalty box. Her marriage is on the rocks. Can love score the winning goal?

My life just hit the skids, hard. A drug scandal wrecked my career, drained my bank account, and left me desperate enough to sell my house. The twist? I have to work with Paige Anderson—the real estate agent with a smile that lights up the room and the woman I recently made a fool of myself with.

Paige is a pro at selling houses, but her personal life’s a mess. Her marriage is falling apart, and the last thing she needs is to deal with a washed-up, disgraced hockey player like me. But she’s determined to make the sale, and somewhere along the way, she starts turning to me when things get rough.

I didn’t see it coming, but I start to catch real feelings for Paige. It’s a wake-up call that maybe it’s time to get my life together. She has her own scars, though, and she’s scared I’ll just be another guy who lets her down.

If we’re going to make this work, we’ll both have to take a leap of faith. But with every step closer, our scars only seem to deepen, and the line between healing and hurting blurs. Maybe love isn’t enough to fix what's broken in each of us—but then again, maybe it’s all we’ve got left to hold on to.
