Payne by name, pain by nature…
Milo Payne is the grumpiest goalie in the NHL. He’s also annoyingly attractive with his broad shoulders, stubbled jaw, and piercing green eyes.
Not that I care.
He may be used to women falling at his feet, but I refuse to be one of them. I’m a shelf-diagnosed, snarky booktrovert who’s only a sap for romance on the page, not in real life. I’ve been treated like dirt by guys before—I won’t let it happen again.
But suddenly, Milo is everywhere I turn. On my early morning walks. Hanging out with my friends. Moving in next door.
It’s irritating…and okay, maybe a little fun to have someone to exchange barbs with.
Because under his gruff exterior, he’s surprisingly quick-witted, smart, and kind. A dream guy…if I were looking for that sort of thing, which I definitely am not.
Then I discover why he’s moved to Comfort Bay, and slowly, the stone walls I’ve built around my heart start tumbling down.
Milo and I started off as enemies, but will we end up as something else?
