To his fans, Jasper Gervais is just the handsome hockey heartthrob on TV. But to Sloane, he’ll always be her childhood best friend — the lost boy with sad eyes and a heart of gold, the man she’s loved in secret for years. So when everything falls apart on the day she’s meant to marry someone else, it only makes sense that Jasper is the one to swoop in and save her. And when his own world comes crashing down soon after, she’s there to return the favour. Desperate for escape, the two set off on an impromptu road trip.

But the more time they spend alone together, the more obvious it becomes that Jasper isn’t looking at Sloane like a friend anymore — and he isn’t touching her like one, either. After all this time, he’s still everything she’s ever wanted, and everything she thought she could never have. Their feelings are anything but simple, twisting around the pain of his past and the reality of her present. And after years of pushing her away, Jasper might finally act like he wants her — but he’s going to have to prove it. Tender, steamy and full of yearning, it’s a friends-to-lovers romance made for curling up with. For mature readers.

Perfect for readers who love friends-to-lovers romance, a hockey-star hero with a tender heart, a runaway-bride road trip and a slow burn years in the making — in a gorgeous collectable edition.
