On the Breakaway (Boston Playmakers #2)

Avery Holt lives by one simple rule: never let anyone get close enough to hurt her again. After learning the hard way that love always ends in pain, she’s focused on soccer and ignoring the hockey captain who reminds her far too much of the man who broke her.

Grayson Shaw is done chasing forever. After a string of failed relationships, he's determined to figure out how to be happy on his own. It should be easy– until Avery crashes into his life. She’s guarded, stubborn, and determined to hate him, even though he gives her no reason to.

When their paths continue to collide, the line between irritation and attraction grows impossibly thin. Convinced their dislike for each other is enough to keep things simple, giving in just once seems harmless. Except once turns into twice. And twice turns into stolen moments, late-night conversations, and something neither of them ever saw coming.

As Avery’s walls begin to crack and the forever Grayson stopped hoping for suddenly seems possible, they’ll have to decide if they’re willing to risk their hearts again for something that could finally be different. Something real.

Because the hardest part of being on the breakaway is trusting someone enough to be beside you while you take the chance.

On the Breakaway, the second book in the Boston Playmakers series, is a steamy sports romance about healing after heartbreak, learning to trust again, and discovering that sometimes it’s the biggest risks that lead to the most unexpected victories.
