Sebastian Wilde has spent years punishing himself in silence—on the ice and off it. As a defenseman for the Annihilators, pain is something he knows how to take. But guilt? That’s a wound he’s never let heal. And when the team’s new trauma counselor starts getting too close, he’s forced to face the one thing he’s never been able to outrun—his past.
I ruined everything once—
A marriage. A family. A woman I should’ve walked away from.
That was a lifetime ago.
But guilt doesn’t fade. And forgiveness isn’t free.
I don’t get close.
Not to teammates. Not to reporters.
Definitely not to therapists who wear wedding rings and look like everything I’ll never deserve.
Olivia Hart is calm. Collected. Too good at reading people—
especially me.
She says she’s here to help.
But I just want her gone… before she uncovers the truth I’ve spent years hiding.
Only now I can’t stop thinking about her.
Wanting her.
And when my past finally catches up with me, I’ll have to face what I’ve always feared—
That some sins stain too deep to ever be washed clean.
