It all starts with a big project and a guy I can’t stand in this small town.
Walking into the office that day, I never imagined being face-to-face with Alden Miller, the hockey star and my brother’s best friend. Now, he’s the celebrity my photo agency is trying to court, and I’m forced to work with the guy I’ve always avoided. He’s arrogant, infuriating, and somehow, he’s all up in my business.
But as we work together, I start to see the side of Alden that no one else knows. Every glance ignites something electric between us. I try to ignore it. I really do. Just when I think I’ve got things under control, one unexpected moment changes everything, leaving me making me question everything I thought I knew about him—and myself.
We’re keeping our romance a secret—especially from my brother. But when the press uncovers dirt on Alden, I’ll have to decide: trust the man who’s captured my heart or walk away before I get hurt.
“Stuck with a Rival” is a sweet, heartwarming enemies-to-lovers hockey romance that combines humor, heart, and sizzle—without the spice. Perfect for sports romance fans who enjoy a slow-burn connection!
