About this ebook

He’s the league’s quiet defenseman with a secret that could destroy everything. Morgan Oakson is one shift away from the Cup…and one bruise away from breaking. Behind closed doors, his boyfriend Burke controls every breath, every dollar, every truth Morgan dares not speak. That he’s gay, and that the man who claims to love him also promises to ruin him.

When a desperate 911 call goes wrong, the one person who sees through Morgan’s lies is the last person he expected, his openly gay coach, Marshall Davies. One business card. One promise. One chance to escape before the next fist lands.
